Purification and properties of trehalase from the thermophilic fungus Humicola lanuginosa

Abstract
Trehalase (alpha,alpha-Trehalose glucohydrolase, EC 3.2.1.28) was partially solubilized from the thermophilic fungus Humicola lanuginosa RM-B, and purified 184-fold. The purified enzyme was optimally active at 50 degrees C in acetate buffer at pH 5.5. It was highly specific for alpha,alpha-trehalose and had an apparent Km = 0.4 mM at 50 degrees C. None of the other disaccharides tested either inhibited or activated the enzyme. The molecular weight of the enzyme was around 170 000. Trehalase from mycelium grown at 40 and 50 degrees C had similar properties. The purified enzyme, in contrast to that in the crude-cell free extract, was less stable. At low concentration, purified trehalase was afforded protection against heat-inactivation by "protection against heat-inactivation by "protective factor(s)" present in mycelial extracts. The "protective factor(s)" was sensitive to proteolytic digestion. It was not diffusible and was stable to boiling for at least 30 min. Bovine serum albumin and casein also protected the enzyme from heat-inactivation.
