To obtain high expression efficiency of a mannanase gene,ThMan5A,cloned fromTrichoderma harzianumMGQ2, both the full-length gene and a truncated gene (ThMan5A△CBM) that contains only the catalytic domain, were expressed inTrichoderma reeseiQM9414 using the strong constitutive promoter of the gene encoding pyruvate decarboxylase (pdc), and purified to homogeneity, respectively. We found that truncation of the gene improved its expression efficiency as well as the enzymatic properties of the encoded protein. The recombinant strain expressingThMan5A△CBM produced 2,460 ± 45.1 U/ml of mannanase activity in the culture supernatant; 2.3-fold higher than when expressing the full-lengthThMan5Agene. In addition, the truncated mannanase had superior thermostability compared with the full-length enzyme and retained 100 % of its activity after incubation at 60 °C for 48 h. Our results clearly show that the truncated ThMan5A enzyme exhibited improved characteristics both in expression efficiency and in its thermal stability. These characteristics suggest that ThMan5A△CBM has potential applications in the food, feed, paper, and pulp industries.
