Transglycosylation of stevioside in the attrition coupled heterogeneous reaction system using raw starch as a glycosyl donor has significant advantages over conventional reaction systems using liquefied starch as a donor. The transglycosylation of stevioside under the presence of organic solvent showed that transglycosylation reaction occurs via two steps ; initially from raw starch to cyclodextrin(CD), and then followed by transglycosylation of produced CD. Comparison of the transglycosylation efficiency of c$\alpha $-, $\beta $, $\gamma $-CDs indicated that $\alpha $-, $\beta $-CD are mainly utilized as a glycosyl donor for following reaction. The reaction mechanism of transglycosylation between stevioside and CD proceeded according to random sequential bireactant mechanism. The equilibrium constant of transglycosylation reaction of cyclodextrin glucanotransferase wase also evaluated. The structure of transglycosylated stevioside was confirmed by TLC, and it was found that glycosyl group(G$_{1}, $ ~ G$_{4}$-glycosidic bond.

본 연구에서는 CGTase 생산성이 높은 균주인 Bacillus sp.를 자연계에서 분리하였고 이 균주의 특성, 분비효소의 특성, 효의 생산조건 및 효소이용 가능성에 대한 기초연구를 실시하였다. 분리균주는 운동성이 있는 내성포자형성 간균이었고 분비효소의 최적작용조건은 pH 6.0, 45$^{\circ}C$이며 pH 6-10 범위에서 안정하였다. 효소생산조건은 탄소원으로 corn starch 1%, 질소원으로서 corn steep liquor 5%, urea 0.1%, ammonium sulfate 0.25%를 동시에 첨가하는 것이 가장 양호하였으며 본 생산균을 30$\ell$ jar fermentor로 3$0^{\circ}C$, 200rpm, 0.6vvm에서 60시간 정도 배양하였을 때 최대의 효소 생산력을 나타내었다. 또한 본 효소를 이용하여 stevioside를 acceptor로 하고 전분가수분해물을 donor로 하여 당전이반응을 실시한 결과 상당한 전이효과가 나타났으므로 기타 전이제품 및 cyclodextrin 생산에 응용이 가능할 것으로 기대된다.

Most carbohydrates exist in nature in an insoluble state, which reduces their susceptibility towards various carbohydrases. Accordingly, they require intensive pretreatment for structural modification to enhance an enzyme reaction. The direct conversion of insoluble carbohydrates has distinct advantages for special types of reaction, especially exo-type carbohydrase; however, its application is limited due to structural constraints. This paper introduces two novel heterogeneous enzyme reaction systems for direct conversion of insoluble carbohydrates; one is an attrition coupled enzyme reaction system containing attrition-milling media for enhancing the enzyme reaction, and the other is a heterogeneous enzyme reaction system using extruded starch as an insoluble substrate. The direct conversion of typically insoluble carbohydrates, including cellulose, starch, and chitin with their corresponding carbohydrases, including cellulase, amylase, chitinase, and cyclodextrin glucanotransferase, was carried out using two proposed enzyme reaction systems. The conceptual features of the systems, their reaction characteristics and mechanism, and the industrial applications of the various carbohydrates are analyzed in this review.
