Resumo

L-Asparaginase amidohydrolase (EC 3.5.1.1) has received significant attention owing to its clinical use in acute lymphoblastic leukemia treatment and non-clinical applications in the food industry to reduce acrylamide (toxic compound) formation during the frying of starchy foods. In this study, a sequential optimization strategy was used to determine the best culture conditions for L-asparaginase production from filamentous fungus Aspergillus terreus CCT 7693 by submerged fermentation. The cultural conditions were studied using a 3-level, central composite design of response surface methodology, and biomass and enzyme production were optimized separately. The highest amount of biomass (22.0 g center dot L-1) was obtained with modified Czapek-Dox medium containing glucose (14 g center dot L-1), L-proline (10 g center dot L-1), and ammonium nitrate (2 g center dot L-1) fermented at 37.2 degrees C and pH 8.56; for maximum enzyme production (13.50 U center dot g(-1)), the best condition was modified Czapek-Dox medium containing glucose (2 g center dot L-1), L-proline (10 g center dot L-1), and inoculum concentration of 4.8 x 10(8) espore center dot mL(-1) adjusted to pH 9.49 at 34.6 degrees C. The L-asparaginase production profile was studied in a 7 L bench-scale bioreactor and a final specific activity of 13.81 U center dot g(-1) was achieved, which represents an increase of 200% in relation to the initial non-optimized conditions.
