Abstract
β-Glucosidase (BGL1) from Aspergillus oryzae was efficiently produced in recombinant A. oryzae using sodM promoter-mediated expression system. The yield of BGL1 was 960 mg/l in liquid culture, which is 20-fold higher than the yield of BGL1 produced using the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Recombinant BGL1 converted isoflavone glycosides into isoflavone aglycones more efficiently than β-glucosidase from almond. In addition, BGL1 produced isoflavone aglycones even in the presence of the insoluble form of isoflavone glycosides.
