The class II fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase gene of Corynebacterium glutamicum, fbp, was cloned and expressed with a N-terminal His-tag in Escherichia coli. Purified, His-tagged fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase from C. glutamicum was shown to be tetrameric, with a molecular mass of about 140 kDa for the homotetramer. The enzyme displayed Michaelis-Menten kinetics for the substrate fructose 1,6-bisphosphate with a Km value of about 14 µM and a Vmax of about 5.4 µmol min–1 mg–1 and kcat of about 3.2 s–1. Fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase activity was dependent on the divalent cations Mg2+ or Mn2+ and was inhibited by the monovalent cation Li+ with an inhibition constant of 140 µM. Fructose 6-phosphate, glycerol 3-phosphate, ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate and myo-inositol-monophosphate were not significant substrates of fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase from C. glutamicum. The enzymatic activity was inhibited by AMP and phosphoenolpyruvate and to a lesser extent by phosphate, fructose 6-phosphate, fructose 2,6-bisphosphate, and UDP. Fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase activities and protein levels varied little with respect to the carbon source. Deletion of the chromosomal fbp gene led to the absence of any detectable fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase activity in crude extracts of C. glutamicum WTfbp and to an inability of this strain to grow on the carbon sources acetate, citrate, glutamate, and lactate. Thus, fbp is essential for growth on gluconeogenic carbon sources and likely codes for the only fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase in C. glutamicum. 相似文献

The gene fba from the thermotolerant obligate methanotroph Methylococcus capsulatus Bath was cloned and expressed in Escherichia coli BL21(DE3). The fructose-1,6-bisphosphate aldolase (FBA) carrying six His on the C-end was purified by affinity metal chelating
chromatography. The Mc. capsulatus FBA is a hexameric enzyme (240 kDa) that is activated by Co2+ and inhibited by EDTA. The enzyme displays low K
m to fructose-1,6-bisphosphate (FBP) and higher K
m to the substrates of aldol condensation, dihydroxyacetone phosphate and glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate. The FBA also catalyzes
sedoheptulose-1,7-bisphosphate cleavage. The presence of Co2+ in the reaction mixture changes the kinetics of FBP hydrolysis and is accompanied by inhibition of the reaction by 2 mM FBP.
Phylogenetically, the Mc. capsulatus enzyme belongs to the type B of class II FBAs showing high identity of translated amino acid sequence with FBAs from autotrophic
bacteria. The role of the FBA in metabolism of Mc. capsulatus Bath, which realizes simultaneously three C1 assimilating pathways (the ribulose monophosphate, the ribulose bisphosphate, and the serine cycles), is discussed. 相似文献

To understand the physiological functions of thermostable fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase (TNA1-Fbp) from Thermococcus onnurineus NA1, its recombinant enzyme was overexpressed in Escherichia coli, purified, and the enzymatic properties were characterized. The enzyme showed maximal activity for fructose-1,6-bisphosphate
at 95°C and pH 8.0 with a half-life (t
1/2) of about 8 h. TNA1-Fbp had broad substrate specificities for fructose-1,6-bisphosphate and its analogues including fructose-1-phosphate,
glucose-1-phosphate, and phosphoenolpyruvate. In addition, its enzyme activity was increased five-fold by addition of 1 mM
Mg2+, while Li+ did not enhance enzymatic activity. TNA1-Fbp activity was inhibited by ATP, ADP, and phosphoenolpyruvate, but AMP up to 100
mM did not have any effect. TNA1-Fbp is currently defined as a class V fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase (FBPase) because it is
very similar to FBPase of Thermococcus kodakaraensis KOD1 based on sequence homology. However, this enzyme shows a different range of substrate specificities. These results suggest
that TNA1-Fbp can establish new criterion for class V FBPases. 相似文献

Bacillus coagulans has been of great commercial interest over the past decade owing to its strong ability of producing optical pure l-lactic acid from both hexose and pentose sugars including l-arabinose with high yield, titer and productivity under thermophilic conditions. The l-arabinose isomerase (L-AI) from Bacillus coagulans was heterologously over-expressed in Escherichia coli. The open reading frame of the L-AI has 1,422 nucleotides encoding a protein with 474 amino acid residues. The recombinant
L-AI was purified to homogeneity by one-step His-tag affinity chromatography. The molecular mass of the enzyme was estimated
to be 56 kDa by SDS-PAGE. The enzyme was most active at 70°C and pH 7.0. The metal ion Mn2+ was shown to be the best activator for enzymatic activity and thermostability. The enzyme showed higher activity at acidic
pH than at alkaline pH. The kinetic studies showed that the K
m, V
max and k
cat/K
m for the conversion of l-arabinose were 106 mM, 84 U/mg and 34.5 mM−1min−1, respectively. The equilibrium ratio of l-arabinose to l-ribulose was 78:22 under optimal conditions. l-ribulose (97 g/L) was obtained from 500 g/l of l-arabinose catalyzed by the enzyme (8.3 U/mL) under the optimal conditions within 1.5 h, giving at a substrate conversion
of 19.4% and a production rate of 65 g L−1 h−1. 相似文献

l-arabinose isomerase (EC5.3.1.4. AI) mediates the isomerization of d-galactose into d-tagatose as well as the conversion of l-arabinose into l-ribulose. The AI from Lactobacillus plantarum SK-2 was purified to an apparent homogeneity giving a single band on SDS–PAGE with a molecular mass of 59.6 kDa. Optimum
activity was observed at 50°C and pH 7.0. The enzyme was stable at 50°C for 2 h and held between pH 4.5 and 8.5 for 1 h. AI
activity was stimulated by Mn2+, Fe3+, Fe2+, Ca2+ and inhibited by Cu2+, Ag+, Hg2+, Pb2+. d-galactose and l-arabinose as substrates were isomerized with high activity. l-arabitol was the strongest competitive inhibitor of AI. The apparent Michaelis–Menten constant (K
m), for galactose, was 119 mM. The first ten N-terminal amino acids of the enzyme were determined as MLSVPDYEFW, which is identical to L. plantarum (Q88S84). Using the purified AI, 390 mg tagatose could be converted from 1,000 mg galactose in 96 h, and this production
corresponds to a 39% equilibrium. 相似文献

A tannase with a molecular mass of 72 kDa was obtained from Penicillium herquei isolated from valonia acorns following fermentation in a 5 L bioreactor. This tannase showed optimum activity at pH 6.0 and
30°C. The enzyme was inhibited by Fe3+, Zn2+, dithiothrietol (DTT), β-mercaptoethanol, formaldehyde, and ethanol, and induced by K+, Mn2+, Tween 80, and Triton X-100. The Michaelis constant (K
m) and the second-order constant (k
cat/K
m) values of the tannase for propyl gallate (PG) were 0.62 mM and 174.1 mM/sec. The circular dichroism (CD) spectra indicated
that the secondary structure of the tannase contained 14% α helix, 32.4% anti-parallel β-sheet, 4.8% β-sheet, 18.8% β-turn,
and 30% random coil. Native tannase in ultrapure water manifested as spherical nano-particle aggregates with diameters ranging
from 50 to 300 nm determined by atomic force microscopy (AFM). 相似文献

An intracellular S-adenosylmethionine synthetase (SAM-s) was purified from the fermentation broth of Pichia pastoris GS115 by a sequence chromatography column. It was purified to apparent homogeneity by (NH4)2SO4 fractionation (30–60%), anion exchange, hydrophobic interaction, anion exchange and gel filtration chromatography. HPLC showed
the purity of purified SAM-s was 91.2%. The enzyme was purified up to 49.5-fold with a final yield of 20.3%. The molecular
weight of the homogeneous enzyme was 43.6 KDa, as determined by electro-spray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS). Its isoelectric
point was approximately 4.7, indicating an acidic character. The optimum pH and temperature for the enzyme reaction were 8.5
and 35 °C, respectively. The enzyme was stable at pH 7.0–9.0 and was easy to inactivate in acid solution (pH ≤ 5.0). The temperature
stability was up to 45 °C. Metal ions, such as, Mn2+ and K+ at the concentration of 5 mM had a slight activation effect on the enzyme activity and the Mg2+ activated the enzyme significantly. The enzyme activity was strongly inhibited by heavy metal ions (Cu2+ and Ag2+) and EDTA. The purified enzyme from the transformed Pichia pastoris synthesized S-adenosylmethionine (SAM) from ATP and l-methionine in vitro with a K
m of 120 and 330 μM and V
max of 8.1 and 23.2 μmol/mg/min for l-methionine and ATP, respectively. 相似文献

An N-acetylglucosaminidase produced by Streptomyces cerradoensis was partially purified giving, by SDS-PAGE analysis, two main protein bands with Mr of 58.9 and 56.4 kDa. The Km and Vmax values for the enzyme using p-nitrophenyl-β-N-acetylglucosaminide as substrate were of 0.13 mM and 1.95 U mg−1 protein, respectively. The enzyme was optimally activity at pH 5.5 and at 50 °C when assayed over 10 min. Enzyme activity
was strongly inhibited by Cu2+ and Hg2+ at 10 mM, and was specific to substrates containing acetamide groups such as p-nitrophenyl-β-N-acetylglucosaminide and p-nitrophenyl-β-D-N,N′-diacetylchitobiose. 相似文献

We cloned the gene, CdPAL1, from Cistanche deserticola callus using RACE PCR with degenerate primers that were designed based on a multiple sequence alignment of known PAL genes
from other plant species. The gene shows high homology to other known PAL genes registered in GenBank. The recombinant protein
exhibited Michaelis–Menten kinetics with a K
m of 0.1013 mM, V
max of 4.858 μmol min−1, K
cat of 3.36 S−1, and K
cat/K
m is 33,168 M−1 S−1. The enzyme had an optimal pH of 8.5 and an activation energy of 38.92 kJ mol−1 when l-Phenylalanine was used as a substrate; l-tyrosine cannot be used as substrate for this protein. The optimal temperature was 55°C, and the thermal stability results
showed that, after a treatment at 70°C for 20 min, the protein retained 87% activity, while a treatment at 75°C for 20 min
resulted in a loss of over 85% of the enzyme activity. Treatment with heavy metal ions (Hg2+, Pb2+, and Zn2+) showed remarkable inhibitory effects. Among the intermediates from the lignin (cinnamyl alcohol, cinnamyl aldehyde, coniferyl
aldehyde, coniferyl alcohol), phenylpropanoid (cinnamic acid, coumaric acid, caffeic acid, and chlorogenic acid) and phenylethanoid
(tyrosol and salidroside) biosynthetic pathways, only cinnamic acid showed strong inhibitory effects against CdPAL1 activity with a K

Based on analysis of the genome sequence of Bacillus licheniformis ATCC 14580, an isomerase-encoding gene (araA) was proposed as an l-arabinose isomerase (L-AI). The identified araA gene was cloned from B. licheniformis and overexpressed in Escherichia coli. DNA sequence analysis revealed an open reading frame of 1,422 bp, capable of encoding a polypeptide of 474 amino acid residues
with a calculated isoelectric point of pH 4.8 and a molecular mass of 53,500 Da. The gene was overexpressed in E. coli, and the protein was purified as an active soluble form using Ni–NTA chromatography. The molecular mass of the purified enzyme
was estimated to be ~53 kDa by sodium dodecyl sulfate–polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and 113 kDa by gel filtration chromatography,
suggesting that the enzyme is a homodimer. The enzyme required a divalent metal ion, either Mn2+or Co2+, for enzymatic activity. The enzyme had an optimal pH and temperature of 7.5 and 50°C, respectively, with a k
cat of 12,455 min−1 and a k
cat/K
m of 34 min−1 mM−1 for l-arabinose, respectively. Although L-AIs have been characterized from several other sources, B. licheniformis L-AI is distinguished from other L-AIs by its wide pH range, high substrate specificity, and catalytic efficiency for l-arabinose, making B. licheniformis L-AI the ideal choice for industrial applications, including enzymatic synthesis of l-ribulose. This work describes one of the most catalytically efficient L-AIs characterized thus far. 相似文献

A β-N-acetylglucosaminidase produced by a novel fungal source, the moderately thermophilic aerobic ascomycete Talaromyces emersonii, was purified to apparent homogeneity. Submerged fermentation of T. emersonii, in liquid medium containing algal fucoidan as the main carbon source, yielded significant amounts of extracellular N-acetylglucosaminidase activity. The N-acetylglucosaminidase present in the culture-supernatant was purified by hydrophobic interaction chromatography and preparative
electrophoresis. The enzyme is a dimer with molecular weight and pI values of 140 and 3.85, respectively. Substrate specificity
studies confirmed the glycan specificity of the enzyme for N-acetylglucosamine. Michaelis-Menten kinetics were observed during enzyme-catalyzed hydrolysis of the fluorescent substrate
methylumbelliferyl-β-D-N-acetylglucosaminide at 50°C, pH 5.0 (Km value of 0.5 mM). The purified N-acetylglucosaminidase displayed activity over broad ranges of pH and temperature, yielding respective optimum values of pH
5.0 and 75°C. The T. emersonii enzyme was less susceptible to inhibition by N-acetylglucosamine and other related sugars than orthologs from other sources. The enzyme was sensitive to Hg2+, Co2+ and Fe3+. 相似文献

The hyperthermophilic, sulfate-reducing archaeon Archaeoglobus fulgidus strain 7324 has been shown to degrade starch via glucose using a modified Embden-Meyerhof pathway. In this pathway phosphorylation of fructose-6-phosphate to fructose-1,6 bisphosphate is catalyzed by an ADP-dependent 6-phosphofructokinase (ADP-PFK), which was purified 1,800-fold to homogeneity. The enzyme is composed of 50 kDa subunits and is eluted from gel filtration as both a homotetramer and a homodimer. It had a temperature optimum at 85°C and showed significant thermostability up to 95°C. Kinetic constants were determined for both reaction directions at pH 6.6 and 80°C. Rate dependence for all substrates followed Michaelis Menten kinetics. The apparent K
m for ADP and fructose-6-phosphate (forward reaction) was 0.6 mM and 2.2 mM, respectively; the apparent V
max was 1,200 U/mg. ADP-PFK catalyzed in vitro the reverse reaction, with apparent K
m for fructose-1,6-bisophosphate and AMP of 5.7 and 1.4 mM, respectively, and a V
max value of 85 U/mg. The enzyme did not use ATP, PPi, or acetyl phosphate as phosphoryl donor and was highly specific for fructose-6-phosphate as substrate. The A. fulgidus ADP-PFK did not phosphorylate glucose and thus differs from the bifunctional ADP-PFK/GLK from Methanococcus jannaschii. Divalent cations were required for catalytic activity; Mg2+, which was most effective, could be partially replaced by Mn2+, Ni2+, and Co2+. Enzyme activity was not allosterically regulated by classical effectors of bacterial and eukaryal ATP-PFKs, such as ADP, AMP, phosphoenolpyruvate, or citrate. N-terminal amino acid sequence showed high similarity to known ADP-PFKs. In the genome of Archaeoglobus fulgidus strain VC 16, which is closely related to strain 7324, no homologous gene for ADP-PFK could be identified.Communicated by G. Antranikian 相似文献

A phytase gene was cloned from Neosartorya spinosa BCC 41923. The gene was 1,455 bp in size, and the mature protein contained a polypeptide of 439 amino acids. The deduced
amino acid sequence contains the consensus motif (RHGXRXP) which is conserved among phytases and acid phosphatases. Five possible
disulfide bonds and seven potential N-glycosylation sites have been predicted. The gene was expressed in Pichia pastoris KM71 as an extracellular enzyme. The purified enzyme had specific activity of 30.95 U/mg at 37°C and 38.62 U/mg at 42°C.
Molecular weight of the deglycosylated recombinant phytase, determined by SDS-PAGE, was approximately 52 kDa. The optimum
pH and temperature for activity were pH 5.5 and 50°C. The residual phytase activity remained over 80% of initial activity
after the enzyme was stored in pH 3.0 to 7.0 for 1 h, and at 60% of initial activity after heating at 90°C for 20 min. The
enzyme exhibited broad substrate specificity, with phytic acid as the most preferred substrate. Its K
m and V
max for sodium phytate were 1.39 mM and 434.78 U/mg, respectively. The enzyme was highly resistant to most metal ions tested,
including Fe2+, Fe3+, and Al3+. When incubated with pepsin at a pepsin/phytase ratio of 0.02 (U/U) at 37°C for 2 h, 92% of its initial activity was retained.
However, the enzyme was very sensitive to trypsin, as 5% of its initial activity was recovered after treating with trypsin
at a trypsin/phytase ratio of 0.01 (U/U). 相似文献

Laccases are strong oxidizing enzymes that oxidize chlorinated phenols, synthetic dyes, pesticides, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons
as well as a very wide range of other compounds with high redox potential. Based on the bias of genetic codons between fungus
and yeast, we synthesized a laccase gene GlLCCI, originated from Ganoderma lucidum using optimized codons and a PCR-based two-step DNA synthesis method. The recombinant laccase, GlLCCI was successfully over-expressed in yeast, Pichia pastoris, with an alcohol oxidase1 promoter. The recombinant GlLCCI has a molecular mass of approximately 58 kDa. The K
m values of GlLCCI for 2-2′-azino-bis-(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulphonic acid) (ABTS) and guaiacol were 0.9665, and 1.1122 mM,
respectively. The V
max of GlLCCI for both substrates was 3,024 and 82.13 μM mg−1 min−1. When ABTS was used as a substrate, the enzyme had an optimal temperature of approximately 55°C. The enzyme was detected
over pH values from 2 to 8. The enzyme was strongly activated by K+, Na+, Cu2+ and mannitol. Six amino acids (alanine, histidine, glycine, arginine, aspartate and phenylalanine) increased the catalytic
ability of the enzyme. The activity of laccase was obviously inhibited by Fe2+, Fe3+, sodium hydrosulphite, and sodium azide. Additionally, under optimal conditions, GlLCCI decolorized 37.62 mg l−1 of azo dye methyl orange (MO) in cultural medium. With a high MO degradation ability, GlLCCI may have potential in the treatment
of industrial effluent containing azo dye MO. 相似文献

An extracellular endoxylanase was isolated from the xylanolytic complex of Aspergillus niger B03. The enzyme was purified to a homogenous form using consecutive ultrafiltration and anion exchange chromatography. The
endoxylanase was a monomer protein with a molecular weight of 33,000 Da determined by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide
gel electrophoresis, and 34,000 Da determined by gel filtration. The optimal pH and temperature values for the enzyme action
were 6.0 and 60°C, respectively. Endoxylanase was stable at 40°C, pH 7.0 for 210 min. The thermal stability of the enzyme
was significantly increased in the presence of glycerol and sorbitol. The enzyme activity was inhibited by Cu2+, Fe2+, Fe3+, and Ag1+, and it was activated by Mn2+. The substrate specificity and kinetic parameters of the enzyme were determined with different types of xylans. Endoxylanase
displayed maximum activity in the case of oat spelt xylan, with an apparent K
m value of 8.19 mg/ml. The substrate specificity and the product profile of the enzyme suggested it to be an endoxylanase. 相似文献

A monomeric NADP-dependent isocitrate dehydrogenase from the multicellular prokaryote Streptomyces avermitilis MA-4680 (SaIDH) was heteroexpressed in Escherichia coli, and the His-tagged enzyme was further purified to homogeneity. The molecular weight of SaIDH was about 80 kDa which is typical for monomeric isocitrate dehydrogenases. Structure-based sequence alignment reveals
that the deduced amino acid sequence of SaIDH shows high sequence identity with known momomeric isocitrate dehydrogenase, and the coenzyme, substrate and metal ion
binding sites are completely conserved. The optimal pH and temperature of SaIDH were found to be pH 9.4 and 45°C, respectively. Heat-inactivation studies showed that heating for 20 min at 50°C caused
a 50% loss in enzymatic activity. In addition, SaIDH was absolutely specific for NADP+ as electron acceptor. Apparent K
m values were 4.98 μM for NADP+ and 6,620 μM for NAD+, respectively, using Mn2+ as divalent cation. The enzyme performed a 33,000-fold greater specificity (k
cat/K
m) for NADP+ than NAD+. Moreover, SaIDH activity was entirely dependent on the presence of Mn2+ or Mg2+, but was strongly inhibited by Ca2+ and Zn2+. Taken together, our findings implicate the recombinant SaIDH is a divalent cation-dependent monomeric isocitrate dehydrogenase which presents a remarkably high cofactor preference
for NADP+. 相似文献

The biochemical properties of the alkaline phosphatases (AlPs) produced by Rhizopus microsporus are described. High enzymic levels were produced within 1–2 d in agitated cultures with 1 % wheat bran. Intra- and extracellular
AlPs were purified 5.0 and 9.3×, respectively, by DEAE-cellulose and ConA-sepharose chromatography. Molar mass of 118 and
120 kDa was estimated by gel filtration for both forms of phosphatases. SDS-PAGE indicated dimeric structures of 57 kDa for
both forms. Mn2+, Na+ and Mg2+ stimulated the activity, while Al3+ and Zn2+ activated only the extracellular form. Optimum temperature and pH for both phosphatases were 65 °C and pH 8.0, respectively.
The enzymes were stable at 50 °C for at least 15 min. Hydrolysis of 4-nitrophenyl phosphate exhibited a K
m 0.28 and 0.22 mmol/L, with υ
lim 5.89 and 4.84 U/mg, for intra- and extracellular phosphatases, respectively. The properties of the reported AlPs may be suitable
for biotechnological application. 相似文献

The heterodont clam Calyptogena kaikoi, which inhabits depths exceeding 3,500 m where low ambient temperatures prevail, has an unusual two-domain arginine kinase
(AK) with molecular mass of 80 kDa, twice that of typical AKs. The purpose of this work is to investigate the nature of the
adaptations of this AK for functioning at low temperatures. Recombinant C. kaikoi AK constructs were expressed, and their two-substrate kinetic constants (k
cat, K
a, and K
ia) were determined at 10°C and 25°C, respectively. When measured at 25°C, the K
ia values were tenfold larger than those for corresponding K
a values, while at 10°C, the K
ia values decreased remarkably, but the K
a values were almost unchanged. The Calyptogena two-domain enzyme has threefold higher catalytic efficiency, calculated by k
cat/(K
aARG·K
iaATP), at 10°C, than that at 25°C, reflecting adaptation for function at reduced ambient temperatures. The activation energy (E
a) and thermodynamic parameters were determined for Calyptogena two-domain enzyme and compared with those of two-domain enzymes from mesophilic Corbicula and Anthopleura. The value for E
a of Calyptogena enzyme were about half of those for mesophilic enzymes, and a larger decrease in entropy was observed in Calyptogena AK reaction. Although large decrease in entropy increases the ΔG
o‡ value and consequently lowers the k
cat value, this is compensated with its lower E
a value thereby minimizing the reduction in its k
cat value. These thermodynamic properties, together with the kinetic ones, are also present in the separated domain 2 of the
Calyptogena two-domain enzyme. 相似文献

Pectate lyase A (PelA) of Aspergillus nidulans was successfully expressed in Escherichia coli and effectively purified using a Ni2+-nitrilotriacetate-agarose column. Enzyme activity of the recombinant PelA could reach 360 U ml−1 medium. The expressed PelA exhibited its optimum level of activity over the range of pH 7.5–10 at 50°C. Mn2+, Ca2+, Fe2+, Mg2+ and Fe3+ ions stimulated the pectate lyase activity, but Cu2+ and Zn2+ inhibited it. The recombinant PelA had a V
max of 77 μmol min−1 mg−1 and an apparent K
m of 0.50 mg ml−1 for polygalacturonic acid. Low-esterified pectin was the optimum substrate for the PelA, whereas higher-esterified pectin
was hardly cleaved by it. PelA efficiently macerated mung bean hypocotyls and potato tuber tissues into single cells. 相似文献
