Abstract
As a result of γ-mutagenesis of Trichoderma longibrachiatum TW1 and the subsequent selection of improved producers, a novel mutant strain, TW1-59-27, capable of efficiently secreting cellulase and xylanase was obtained. In a fed-batch cultivation, the new TW1-59-27 mutant was significantly more active compared with the original TW1 strain. For instance, the activities of cellulase (towards carboxymethylcellulose) and xylanase in the culture broth (CB) increased by 1.8 and two times, respectively, and the protein content increased by 1.47 times. The activity of these enzymes in the dry enzyme preparation derived from the CB of the TW1-59-27 mutant was 1.3–1.8 times higher than that in the preparation derived from the original TW1 strain. It was established that the cellulase from the enzyme preparation of the mutant strain demonstrated the maximum activity at 55–65°C; it occurred in xylanase at 60°C. The pH optima of these enzymes were pH 4.5–5.0 and pH 5.0–6.0, respectively. It was shown that the content of endoglucanases in the enzyme preparation increased from 7% to 13.5%; the effect is largely driven by the elevated secretion of endoglucanase-1. An enzyme preparation with increased endoglucanase-1 content is promising for use as a feed additive in agriculture.
