The objective of this research is to study expression and characterization of surface display cellulases on E. coli using ice nucleation protein A (InA) anchor protein from Erwinia ananas. Cellulases such as endoglucanase Cel5A (EC 3.2.1.4), exoglucanase Cel9E (EC 3.2.1.91) and Pglucosidase BglC (EC 3.2.1.21) fused to the C-terminal of InA were expressed in E. coli.

The optimum temperature and pH of surface display InACel5A and InA-BglC were 60 °C and pH 7, respectively. Optimization of cultivation conditions of InA-Cel5A and InA-BglC were carried out at different post induction time, medium, post induction temperature and isopropyl P-D-1- thiogalactopyranoside (IPTG) concentration. The optimized conditions obtained for expression of InA-Cel5A were M9 medium, 15 °C induction temperature, 0.1 mM IPTG and 14 hours, which gave endoglucanase activity of 0.6537 U/mL. The optimized conditions obtained for expression of InA-BglC were M9 medium, 30 °C induction temperature, 0.1 mM IPTG and 6 hours, which gave P-glucosidase activity of 198.439 U/mL.
