Characterization of a ginsenoside-transforming β-glucosidase from Paenibacillus mucilaginosus and its application for enhanced production of minor ginsenoside F₂.

A novel β-glucosidase (BglPm) was identified from Paenibacillus mucilaginosus KCTC 3870(T) which has ginsenoside converting activity. The gene, termed bglPm, consists of 1,260 bp and belongs to glycoside hydrolase family 1 (GH1). After being overexpressed and purified from Escherichia coli, the enzy...
