This study focused on the cloning, overexpression, and characterization of the gene encoding L-asparaginase (ansZ) from a nonpathogenic strain of Bacillus subtilis B11-06. The recombinant enzyme showed high thermostability and low affinity to L-glutamine. The ansZ gene, encoding a putative L-asparaginase II, was amplified by PCR and expressed in R subtilis 168 using the shuttle vector pMA5. The activity of the recombinant enzyme was 9.98 U/mL, which was significantly higher than that of R subtilis B11-06. The recombinant enzyme was purified by a two-step procedure including ammonium sulfate fractionation and hydrophobic interaction chromatography. The optimum pH and temperature of the recombinant enzyme were 7.5 and 40 degrees C, respectively. The enzyme was quite stable at a pH range of 6.0-9.0 and exhibited about 14.7 and 9.0% retention of activity following 2 h incubation at 50 or 60 degrees C, respectively. The Km for L-asparagine was 0.43 mM, and the V-max. was 77.51 mu M/min. Results of this study also revealed the potential industrial application of this enzyme in reducing actylamide formation during the potato frying process.
