    Raffinose oligosaccharides (ROs) make up a substantial part (40%) of the soluble sugars found in soybean seeds and are responsible for flatulence after the ingestion of soybean and other legumes. Consequently, soy-based foods would find a broader approval if the ROs were removed from soybean products or hydrolysed by α-galactosidases. During soybean seed germination, of content the ROs decrease substantially, while the α-galactosidase activity increases. α-Galactosidase was partially purified from germinating seeds by partition in an aqueous two-phase system and ion-exchange chromatography. The enzyme preparation presented maximal activities against ρ-nitrophenyl-α-d-galactopyranoside (ρNPGal) at 60 °C and a pH of 5.0 and the KM app values for ρNPGal, melibiose, and raffinose of the enzyme preparation were 0.33, 0.42, and 6.01 mM, respectively. The enzyme was highly inhibited by SDS, copper, and galactose. Hydrolysis of soybean flour ROs by enzyme preparation reduced the stachyose and raffinose contents by 72.3% and 89.2%, respectively, after incubation for 6 h at 40 °C.

    Covalent immobilization of α-Galactosidase from Penicillium griseoroseum and its application in Oligosaccharides Hydrolysis
    (Applied Biochemistry and Biotechnology, 2008-10-21) Falkoski, Daniel Luciano; Guimarães, Valéria Monteze; Queiroz, Marisa Vieira de; Araújo, Elza Fernandes de; Almeida, Maíra Nicolau de; Barros, Everaldo Gonçalves de; Rezende, Sebastião Tavares de
    Partially purified α-Galactosidase from Penicillium griseoroseum was immobilized onto modified silica using glutaraldehyde linkages. The effective activity of immobilized enzyme was 33%. Free and immobilized α-galactosidase showed optimal activity at 45 °C and pH values of 5 and 4, respectively. Immobilized α-galactosidase was more stable at higher temperatures and pH values. Immobilized α-galactosidase from P. griseoroseum maintained 100% activity after 24 h of incubation at 40 °C, while free enzyme showed only 32% activity under the same incubation conditions. Defatted soybean flour was treated with free and immobilized α-galactosidase in batch reactors. After 8 h of incubation, stachyose was completely hydrolyzed in both treatments. After 8 h of incubation, 39% and 70% of raffinose was hydrolyzed with free and immobilized α-galactosidase respectively. Immobilized α-galactosidase was reutilized eight times without any decrease in its activity.
