Abstract

20(S)-Protopanaxadiol (APPD) has potential uses in the pharmaceutical, cosmetic, and food industries because of its anti-stress, anti-fatigue, anti-cancer, anti-inflammatory, and anti-wrinkle properties. However, APPD production is difficult because β-glycosidases that convert the protopanaxadiol (PPD)-type ginsenoside compound K to APPD are rare. β-Glycosidase from Dictyoglomus turgidum (DT-bgl) has the highest specific activity for converting compound K to APPD, but exhibits no activity towards the α-L-arabinopyranoside moiety in compound Y. Therefore, β-glycosidase from Caldicellulosiruptor bescii (CB-bgl), which has a strong α-L-arabinopyranosidase activity, was used along with DT-bgl. The volumetric and specific productivities of the two-enzyme system for APPD using ginseng root extract were 38.4- and 38.7-fold higher, respectively, than those of β-glycosidase from Pyrococcus furiosus, which had the highest volumetric productivity previously reported, at the same enzyme and substrate concentrations. Thus, DT-bgl combined with CB-bgl completely converted PPD-type ginsenosides to APPD with the highest volumetric and specific productivities reported thus far.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 14 December 2017.
All research outputs
#15,485,255
of 23,011,300 outputs
Outputs from AMB Express
#447
of 1,241 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#266,638
of 439,309 outputs
Outputs of similar age from AMB Express
#19
of 48 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 23,011,300 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 22nd percentile – i.e., 22% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 1,241 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 2.8. This one is in the 40th percentile – i.e., 40% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 439,309 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 30th percentile – i.e., 30% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 48 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 8th percentile – i.e., 8% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
