High-level expression, purification and characterization of recombinant Aspergillus oryzae alkaline protease in Pichia pastoris

The alkaline protease gene from Aspergillus oryzae was cloned, and then it was successfully expressed in the heterologous Pichia pastoris GS115 with native signal peptide or α-factor secretion signal peptide. The yield of the recombinant alkaline protease with native signal peptide was about 1.5-fold higher than that with α-factor secretion signal peptide, and the maximum yield of the recombinant alkaline protease was 513 mg/L, which was higher than other researches. The recombinant alkaline protease was purified by ammonium sulfate precipitation, ion exchange chromatography and gel filtration chromatography. The purified recombinant alkaline protease showed on SDS–PAGE as a single band with an apparent molecular weight of 34 kDa. The recombinant alkaline protease was identical to native alkaline protease from A. oryzae with regard to molecular weight, optimum temperature for activity, optimum pH for activity, stability to pH, and similar sensitivity to various metal ions and protease inhibitors. The native enzyme retained 61.18% of its original activity after being incubated at 50 °C for 10 min, however, the recombinant enzyme retained 56.22% of its original activity with same disposal. The work demonstrates that alkaline protease gene from A. oryzae can be expressed largely in P. pastoris without affecting its enzyme properties and the recombinant alkaline protease could be widely used in various industrial applications.

Purification and characterization of a recombinant alpha-N-acetylgalactosaminidase from Clostridium perfringens

Clostridium perfringens alpha-N-acetylgalactosaminidase (alphaNAG) hydrolyzed the terminal N-acetyl-alpha-d-galactosamine from the blood type A(2) antigen producing H antigen, blood type O. Blood type O is universally compatible in the ABO system. Purification of the native enzyme is difficult with very low yields. To obtain the enzyme in satisfactory yield, the gene encoding the clostridial enzyme was cloned in an Escherichia coli T7 expression system. A highly purified preparation of recombinant alphaNAG was obtained from cell lysates by ion-exchange chromatography and high-pressure liquid chromatography. The final preparation was homogeneous by SDS-PAGE with a molecular mass of 71.96kDa and the native molecular weight of 72.42kDa. The enzyme was highly selective for terminal N-acetylgalactosamine residues. No other significant exoglycosidase activities, particularly neuraminidase, were detected. The pH optimum of the enzyme was between 6.5 and 7.0 and activity was relatively unaffected by ionic strength. ELISA experiments demonstrated activity against blood type A(2) epitope. These characteristics were similar to those of native alphaNAG from C. perfringens. With adequate expression in E. coli, sufficient recombinant alphaNAG enzyme mass can be obtained for potential use in enzymatic conversion of human blood type A(2) red blood cells to universally transfusable type O red blood cells.     

Uricase from soybean root nodules: Purification,properties, and comparison with the enzyme from cowpea

A 45-fold purification of uricase (urate:O₂ oxidoreductase, EC 1.7.3.3) from soybean root nodules by ammonium sulfate fractionation, gel filtration, and affinity chromatography is described. Electrophoresis on nondenaturing gels using an activity stain or on sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) gels demonstrated that the enzyme obtained was nearly homogeneous. The subunit molecular weight of uricase estimated from SDS gels was 32,000 ± 3000. Gel-filtration studies indicated that the native enzyme is a monomer at pH 7.5 which associates to form a dimer at pH 8.8. Enzyme activity was stabilized by the addition of dithiothreitol. The pH dependence of the enzyme showed an optimum of 9.5. Initial rate kinetics showed K_m values of 10 and 31 μm for uric acid and oxygen, respectively, with an intersecting pattern of substrate dependence. Uricase activity was inhibited strongly by xanthine, which was competitive with respect to uric acid (K_i = 10 μm). No significant inhibition was observed in the presence of a variety of amino acids, ammonium, adenine, or allopurinol, in contrast with results reported for the cowpea enzyme. Gel-filtration chromatography and SDS-gel electrophoresis of uricase purified by the same method from cowpea nodules indicated that the native enzyme exists as a monomer of M_r 50,000 at pH 7.5.     

Purification and characterization of precarthamin decarboxylase from the yellow petals of Carthamus tinctorius L

Carthamin, a red quinochalcone pigment in safflower (Carthamus tinctorius L.), is enzymatically converted from a yellow precursor, precarthamin. The enzyme, which catalyzes the oxidative decarboxylation of precarthamin to carthamin, was purified to apparent homogeneity from yellow petals of safflower and named precarthamin decarboxylase. The molecular mass of the denatured enzyme was estimated as 33 kDa by SDS-PAGE. The molecular mass of the native enzyme was determined by gel filtration chromatography to be 24 kDa; thus, the native enzyme is a monomer. The optimum pH of the enzyme was 5.0. The enzyme activity was inhibited by Mn2+, Fe2+, and Cu2+ and sharply decreased at temperatures higher than 50 degrees C for 10 min. The activation energy and the Arrhenius frequency factor of the enzyme reaction were 19.7 kcal mol(-1) and 9.94 x 10(11) s(-1), respectively. The saturation curve of precarthamin showed that the enzyme follows Michaelis-Menten kinetics. The Km and Vmax of the enzyme were calculated as 164 microM and 29.2 nmol/ min, respectively. The turnover number (kcat) of the enzyme was calculated as 1.42 x 10(2) s(-1). The enzyme activity was severely inhibited by reducing agents such as glutathione and DTT at pH 5.0, suggesting that a disulfide bond may play an important role in enzyme function.

Among 34 plant species screened for L-asparaginase enzyme, Withania somnifera L. Was identified as a potential source of the enzyme on the basis of high specific activity of the enzyme. The enzyme was purified and characterized from W. Somnifera, a popular medicinal plant in South East Asia and Southern Europe. Purification was carried out by a combination of protein precipitation with ammonium sulfate as well as Sephadex-gel filtration. The purified enzyme is a homodimer, with a molecular mass of 72±0.5 kDa as estimated by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresisand size exclusion chromatography. The enzyme has a pH optimum of 8.5 and an optimum temperature of 37℃. The Km value for the enzyme is 6.1×10-2 mmol/L. This is the first report for L-asparaginase from W. Somnifera, a traditionally used Indian medicinal plant.

Highly active acid invertase was found in the young leaf extract of mandarin orange Citrus reticulata Blanco). The invertase was isolated and purified from the young leaf extract of mandarin orange through the procedures of ammonium sulphate precipitation, DEAE-Sepharose column chromatography and Sephacryl S-200 gel filtration. 6.4% of the invertase activity was recovered.

The molecular weight of the native invertase determined by gel filtration was 80 kD. The invertase consists of two identical subunits with apparent equal subunit weight of 40 kD as determined on SDS-PAGE. The invertase followed typical Michaelis-Menten Kinetics with apparent Km Of 1. 6 × 10-2 mol/L for sucrose. Vmax of the invertase was 100 mg reducing sugar · mg-1 protein · h-1 The optimum pH was 5.0 (stable from 4.5—5.5). The optimum temperature was 55℃.
