Abstrakt: The full-length cDNA sequence, which encodes a novel acidophilic β-mannanase (abbreviated as AuMan5A) of Aspergillus usamii YL-01-78, was amplified by 3′ and 5′ rapid amplification of cDNA ends (RACE) using the total RNA as template. The cDNA sequence is 1,427 bp in length, including 5′ and 3′ non-coding regions and an open reading frame (ORF). The ORF encodes a 21-aa signal peptide, a 17-aa propeptide, and a 345-aa mature peptide (AuMan5A) with the calculated M.W. of 37,614 Da and pI of 4.09 and two putative N-glycosylation sites. Online analysis of amino acid sequence homology demonstrated that the AuMan5A belongs to the glycoside hydrolase (GH) family 5. Its three-dimensional structure was predicted using Pred3D Web Server 1.0 based on the crystal structure of the T. reesei RutC-30 β-mannanase (1QNO) from the GH family 5. Furthermore, the complete DNA sequence encoding the AuMan5A, designated as Auman5A, was cloned from the genomic DNA of A. usamii YL-01-78 by the conventional PCR and pUCm-T vector-mediated PCR techniques. The cloned Auman5A is 2,168 bp in length, harboring 5′ and 3′ flanking regulatory regions and the full-length cDNA sequence in which two short introns with 63 and 60 bp are inserted, respectively.
