본 발명은 셀로비오스 2-에피머레이즈 (cellobiose 2-epimerase) 또는 엔아세틸 글루코사민 2-에피머레이즈(N-acetyl glucosamin 2-epimerase)를 이용하여 유당(lactose)으로부터 락툴로스(lactulose)를 제조하는 방법에 관한 것으로, 더욱 상세하게는 이들 유전자를 포함하는 재조합 발현 벡터, 이로 형질전환 된 미생물 및 효소를 이용하여 락툴로스를 얻는 생산 방법에 관한 것이다.The present invention is to prepare lactulose (lacactose) from lactose using cellobiose 2-epimerase or N-acetyl glucosamin 2-epimerase The present invention relates to a method for producing lactulose using a recombinant expression vector, a microorganism and an enzyme transformed thereto, and more particularly, a method of producing lactulose.

락툴로스(lactulose)는 유당(lactose)의 포도당(glucose) 부분이 과당(fructose)로 대체된 유당의 이성질체 당으로서 천연에는 거의 존재하지 않는 당이다. 락툴로스는 소장에서 베타갈락토시다제에 의해 분해되지 않으며 대장에 도달하여 비피도박테리움을 포함한 여러 유산균에 의해 이용되어 대장의 pH를 저하시킴으로서 유해한 균의 성장을 억제하고 대장의 균총을 유익한 방향으로 개선하는 효과를 나타낸다. 또한 락툴로스는 비소화성 당이며 이들 당은 수용성 식이섬유로 작용을 하며 변비와 만성 간질환으로 인한 뇌질병의 치료에 이용되고 있다. 최근에는 lactulose가 폐경기 이후 여성의 칼슘 흡수를 촉진한다는 연구도 있다 (Eurpean Journal of Clinical Nutrition Vol 58 no 3 pp 462-466 (2004); Biochimica Biophysica Acta Vol 110 pp 635-636 (1965); Journal of Clinical Investigation Vol 75 no 2 pp 608-613 (1985),; Journal of Bone and Mineral Research Vol 14 no 7 pp 1211-1216 (1999)).그리고 산업적으로 락툴로스는 유당에 비해 감미도 및 용해성이 우수하여 제빵 및 제과 산업등에 유용하게 사용될 수 있다 (Bulletin of the International Dairy Federation Vol 212 pp 69-76(1987)). Lactulose is an isomeric sugar of lactose in which the glucose portion of lactose is replaced by fructose and is a sugar rarely present in nature. Lactulose is not degraded by beta galactosidase in the small intestine and reaches the large intestine and is used by various lactic acid bacteria including Bifidobacterium, which lowers the pH of the large intestine, thus inhibiting the growth of harmful bacteria and promoting the colonization of the colon The effect is to improve. In addition, lactulose is a non-digestible sugar that acts as a soluble fiber and is used for the treatment of brain diseases caused by constipation and chronic liver disease. Recently, lactulose promotes calcium absorption in postmenopausal women (Eurpean Journal of Clinical Nutrition Vol 58 no 3 pp 462-466 (2004); Biochimica Biophysica Acta Vol 110 pp 635-636 (1965); Journal of Clinical Investigation Vol 75 no 2 pp 608-613 (1985) ;; Journal of Bone and Mineral Research Vol 14 no 7 pp 1211-1216 (1999)); and industrially, lactulose has a higher sweetness and solubility than lactose, leading to baking and It can be usefully used in the confectionery industry (Bulletin of the International Dairy Federation Vol 212 pp 69-76 (1987)).

이러한 락툴로스는 원유에는 존재하지 않고 열처리한 우유에 소량 함유되어져 있다. 락툴로스를 유당을 강알칼리 조건에서 이성화시키는 화학적 방법과 베 타 갈락토시다제 (β-galactosidase)의 갈락토스 전이활성을 이용한 효소학적 방법으로 생산할 수 있다 (Trend in Food Science and Technology Vol 18 no 7 pp 356-364 (2007); Enzyme and Microbial Technology Vol 38 no 4 pp 903-908 (2006)). 화학적 방법은 수산화나트륨, 수산화칼슘, 수산화칼륨등 강알칼리 화합물을 첨가하여 반응을 하고 중화 과정에서 강산을 사용하여 환경 오염을 유발할뿐 아니라 강알칼리 조건에서 생성된 락툴로스를 분해시키고 부산물이 생성되기 때문에 생산후 처리 과정 및 락툴로스 정제 과정이 복잡한 단점을 지니고 있다. 이에 반하여 베타 갈락토시다제를 이용한 효소학적 방법은 친환경적이고 부산물이 나오지 않기 때문에 정제가 간단한 장점을 가지고 있지만 낮은 수율이 문제가 되어져 왔다. 또한 반응에 기질로서 유당뿐 아니라 과당을 함께 사용해야 하며 높은 기질 농도에서만 반응이 이루어 지기 때문에 경제적으로 비효율적이라는 단점이 있다. 그렇기 때문에 친환경적이고 유당 하나의 기질만 사용하여 높은 수율로 락툴로스를 생산할 수 있는 효소를 구하고 적용하는 연구가 필요하다.Such lactulose does not exist in crude oil but is contained in small amounts in heat-treated milk. Lactulose can be produced by chemical methods of isomerizing lactose under strong alkaline conditions and enzymatic methods using the galactose transfer activity of β-galactosidase (Trend in Food Science and Technology Vol 18 no 7 pp 356 -364 (2007); Enzyme and Microbial Technology Vol 38 no 4 pp 903-908 (2006)). The chemical method reacts by adding strong alkali compounds such as sodium hydroxide, calcium hydroxide and potassium hydroxide, and in the process of neutralization, not only causes the environmental pollution by using strong acid, but also decomposes lactulose produced under strong alkali conditions and produces by-products. The process and the lactulose purification process have complex disadvantages. On the contrary, the enzymatic method using beta galactosidase has a simple advantage because it is environmentally friendly and there are no by-products, but low yield has been a problem. In addition, lactose as well as fructose as a substrate to be used in the reaction, and the reaction is economically inefficient because the reaction is performed only at a high substrate concentration. Therefore, research is needed to find and apply enzymes that are eco-friendly and can produce lactulose in high yield using only one substrate of lactose.

본 발명의 엔아세틸글루코사민 2-에피머레이즈를 이용한 락툴로스의 생산성을 확인하기 위하여, 기질로서 700 g/L 유당 및 3-7 mg/ml 효소가 포함된 50 mM PIPES 완충용액(pH 7.5)에서 4 시간 동안 온도 각각 효소의 최적 온도로 효소 반응을 수행하였다. 매시간 효소 반응액을 수집하고 최종 농도 200 mM 염화수소를 첨가하여 반응을 정지시킨 후, HPLC를 통하여 락툴로스 생산량을 측정하였다.In order to confirm the productivity of lactulose using the enacetylglucosamine 2-epimerase of the present invention, in a 50 mM PIPES buffer solution (pH 7.5) containing 700 g / L lactose and 3-7 mg / ml enzyme as a substrate. Enzyme reactions were carried out for 4 hours at the optimum temperature of each enzyme. The enzyme reaction solution was collected every hour and the reaction was stopped by adding a final concentration of 200 mM hydrogen chloride, and then the lactulose production was measured by HPLC.

그 결과, 도 6에서 15에서와 같이 반응 2-3 시간 후에 700 g/L의 유당에서 350-420 g/L의 락툴로스가 생산되어 시간당 150-208.5 g/L의 생산성과 50-59% 전환수율을 나타내었다. 그리고, 락툴로스 생산에 있어서 락툴로스 이외에도 유당의 글루코스가 만노스(mannose)로 전환된 에피락토스(epilactose)도 함께 생산당으로 생산되었으며, 2시간 동안 약 60-100 g/L 가 생산되었다.As a result, 350-420 g / L lactulose was produced in 700 g / L lactose after 2-3 hours of reaction as shown in Fig. 6 to 15, yielding 150-208.5 g / L productivity and 50-59% conversion per hour. Yield is shown. In addition, lactose was also produced in the production of lactose, in addition to lactose, epilactose, in which glucose of lactose was converted into mannose, was produced as a production sugar, and about 60-100 g / L was produced for 2 hours.
