Rubusoside (R) is a natural sweetener and a solubilizing agent with antiangiogenic and antiallergic properties. However, currently, its production is quite expensive, and therefore, we have investigated nine commercially available glycosidases to optimize an economically viable R-production method. A stevioside (ST)-specific 尾-glucosidase (SSGase) was selected and purified 7-fold from Aspergillus aculeatus Viscozyme L by a two-step column chromatography procedure. The 79 kDa protein was stable from pH 3.0 to pH 7.0 at 50鈥?0 掳C. Hydrolysis of ST by SSGase produced R and steviol monoglucosyl ester as determined by 1H and 13C nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR). Importantly, SSGase showed higher activity toward ST than other 尾-linked glucobioses. The optimal conditions for R production were 280 mM ST and 16.6 渭L of SSGase at pH 5.1 and 63 掳C. This is the first discussion detailing the production of R by enzymatic hydrolysis of ST and is useful for the food additive and pharmaceutical industries.
