Abstract

The present invention provides members that produce on a large scale a coenzyme-linked glucose dehydrogenase which has excellent substrate-recognizing ability toward glucose while providing low action on maltose. The present invention relates to a polynucleotide encoding a soluble coenzyme-linked glucose dehydrogenase that catalyzes the oxidation of glucose in the presence of an electron acceptor and has an activity toward maltose of 5% or lower; a polypeptide encoded by the nucleotide sequence of the polynucleotide; a recombinant vector carrying the polynucleotide; a transformed cell produced using the recombinant vector; a method for producing a polypeptide comprising culturing the transformed cell and collecting from the cultivated products a polypeptide that links to FAD to exert the glucose dehydration activity; a method for determination of glucose using the polypeptide; a reagent composition for determination of glucose; and a biosensor.

Claims

1. A method for producing a recombinant flavin adenine dinucleotide-linked glucose dehydrogenase (GLD) comprising:

(i) contacting a transformed fungal or yeast host cell with a liquid culture medium in a fermenter, wherein the transformed host cell comprises a recombinant expression vector comprising a polynucleotide encoding a GLD comprising the sequences set forth in SEQ ID NOs. 8 to 12, wherein SEQ ID NO;

8 is GGGTSGLVVANRLSE, SEQ ID NO;

10 is SPLILELSGVGNP, and SEQ ID NO;

12 is LLPFARGNIHI;

(ii) recombinantly expressing the GLD; and

(iii) collecting recombinant GLD secreted from the transformed host cell.

2. The method of claim 1, wherein the transformed host cell is a transformant fungal host cell.

3. The method of claim 1, wherein the transformed host cell is a transformant yeast host cell.

4. The method of claim 2, wherein the collecting of the recombinant GLD comprises isolating the recombinant GLD from culture medium containing the recombinant GLD secreted outward of a fungus body.

5. The method of claim 1, wherein the recombinant GLD has the amino acid sequence of an Aspergillus species GLD.

6. The method of claim 5, wherein the Aspergillus species GLD is an Aspergillus oryzae species GLD.

7. The method of claim 6, wherein SEQ ID NO:

9 is RAGKALGGTSTINGMAYTRAEDVQID.

8. The method of claim 4, wherein the recombinant expression vector comprises a polynucleotide encoding the GLD and a signal peptide of the GLD.
