Abstrakt: In our previous study, a β-N-acetylhexosaminidase (HaHex74) from Haloferula sp. showing high human milk oligosaccharides (HMOs) synthesis ability was identified and characterized. In this study, HaHex74 was further engineered by directed evolution and site-saturation mutagenesis to improve its transglycosylation activity for HMOs synthesis. A mutant (mHaHex74) with improved transglycosylation activity (HaHex74-Asn401Ile/His394Leu) was obtained and characterized. mHaHex74 exhibited maximal activity at pH 5.5 and 35 °C, respectively, which were distinct from that of HaHex74 (pH 6.5 and 45 °C). Moreover, mHaHex74 showed the highest LNT2 conversion ratio of 28.2% from N,N'-diacetyl chitobiose (GlcNAc 2 ), which is 2.2 folds higher than that of HaHex74. A three-enzyme cascade reaction for the synthesis of LNT2 and LNnT from chitin was performed in a 5-L reactor, and the contents of LNT2 and LNnT reached up to 15.0 g L 1 and 4.9 g L 1 , respectively. Therefore, mHaHex74 maybe a good candidate for enzymatic synthesis of HMOs.
