Activity and stability of horse-liver alcohol dehydrogenase in sodium dioctylsulfosuccinate/cyclohexane reverse micelles

Horse liver alcohol dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.1) solubilized in sodium dioctylsulfosuccinate (AOT)/cyclohexane reverse micelles was used for the oxidation of ethanol and reduction of cyclohexanone in a coupled substrate/coenzyme recycling system. The activity of the enzyme was studied as a function of pH and water content. The enzyme was optimally active in microemulsions prepared with buffer of pH around 8. An increase in enzymatic activity was observed as a function of increasing water content. The Km values for the substrates were calculated based on the total reaction volume. The apparent Km for ethanol in reverse micelles was about eight times lower as compared to that in buffer solution, whereas the Km for cyclohexanone was almost unaltered. Storage and operational stability were investigated. It was found that the specific activity of the alcohol dehydrogenase operating in reverse micellar solution was good for at least two weeks. The steroid eticholan-3 beta-ol-17-one was also used as a substrate. In this case the reaction rate was approximately five times higher in a reverse micellar solution than in buffer.     

Reverse micelles in organic solvents: a medium for the biotechnological use of extreme halophilic enzymes at low salt concentration

Alkaline p-nitrophenylphosphate phosphatase (pNPPase) from the halophilic archaeobacterium Halobacterium salinarum (previously halobium) was solubilized at low salt concentration in reverse micelles of hexadecyltrimethyl-ammoniumbromide in cyclohexane with 1-butanol as co-surfactant. The enzyme maintained its catalytic properties under these conditions. The thermodynamic "solvation-stabilization hypothesis" has been used to explain the bell-shaped dependence of pNPPase activity on the water content of reverse micelles, in terms of protein-solvent interactions. According to this model, the stability of the folded protein depends on a network of hydrated ions associated with acidic residues at the protein surface. At low salt concentration and low water content (the ratio of water concentration to surfactant concentration; w0), the network of hydrated ions within the reverse micelles may involve the cationic heads of the surfactant. The bell-shaped profile of the relationship between enzyme activity and w0 varied depending on the concentrations of NaCl and Mn2+.     

Stability and Enzymatic Studies of Glucose Dehydrogenase from the Archaeon Haloferax mediterranei in reverse micelles

Reverse micelles were used as a cytoplasmic model to study the kinetics of an extreme halophilic enzyme such as the recombinant glucose dehydrogenase from the Archaeon Haloferax mediterranei. This enzyme was solubilized in reverse micelles of hexadecyltrimethylammoniumbromide in cyclohexane, with 1-butanol as co-surfactant. Glucose dehydrogenase retained its catalytic properties in this organic medium, showing good stability at low water content, even at low salt concentration (125 mM NaCl). The dependence of the enzymatic activity on the molar water surfactant ratio (w₀=[H₂O]/[surfactant]) increased with rising water content. Surprisingly, the activity of this extreme halophilic enzyme did not depend on the salt concentration in reverse micelles. The kinetic of the enzymatic oxidation of β-D-glucose to D-glucono-1,5-lactone using NADP⁺ as coenzyme for the glucose dehydrogenase from Haloferax mediterranei was also studied in the reverse micellar system.     

Influence of Igepal reverse micellar and micellar systems on activity and stability of heme peroxidases

The activities of horseradish peroxidase (HRP) and lactoperoxidase (LPO) entrapped in reverse micelles of Igepal CO-520 in cyclohexane were studied. When the molar ratio of water to surfactant, w ₀ was ≥13, the activity of HRP encapsulated in the water pool of the reverse micelle was comparable with that measured in buffer. For LPO, however, lower activity was observed after its incorporation into the same system.

The activity of the investigated peroxidases was also measured in an aqueous solution of Igepal CO-720 or after incubation with this surfactant. The enzymes became inactivated in an aqueous micellar solution of Igepal CO-720, although this process was reversible.

The stability of HRP and LPO at 37 or 50°C was lower in the micellar systems than in buffer with the exception for HRP in reverse micelles at 50°C.     

Enzymatic production of L-tryptophan in a reverse micelle reactor

The enzymatic production of tryptophan from indole and serine was investigated in a micellar solution of the surfactant Brij 56 in cyclohexane. An anion exchanger was employed to facilitate the transfer of tryptophan and serine between the water pool of the reverse micelle and the bulk organic phase. The influence of potassium ion, water content, pH, and co-surfactant on enzyme activity is reported. Kinetic studies indicate that the enzyme is not inhibited by indole in the micellar system and that the enzyme is more stable in reverse micelles than in bulk water. The design of a continuous reverse micelle reactor, which accommodates both product recovery and enzyme reactivation, is discussed.

Micellar catalysis of polyphenol oxidase in AOT/cyclohexane

The catalytic behaviour of mushroom polyphenol oxidase has been studied in dioctylsulphosuccinate (AOT)/cyclohexane reverse micelles. The steady-state conditions were accomplished up to 20 min and 17 μg protein in the assay towards 4-methylcatechol and no loss of specific activity was observed relative to aqueous medium. The pH activity profile of the enzyme was kept in reverse micelles as in water, showing a plateau between 5 and 6.5. The stability of polyphenol oxidase to pH was also studied and about 20% inactivation was found in reverse micelles relative to aqueous medium at neutral pHs. Moreover there was a decrease of stability at acidic pHs. The optimum W_o obtained was 20 and the enzyme was nearly independent of the surfactant concentration at constant W_o.

Kinetic studies of polyphenol oxidase towards several substrates showed that the substrate inhibition by p-cresol and 4-methylcatechol observed in buffer was not kept in AOT/cyclohexane reverse micelles. Moreover, the K_m increased and the catalytic efficiency (V/K_m) of the enzyme decreased as the hydrophobicity of substrates was increased.     

Higher order structure of Mucor miehei lipase and micelle size in cetyltrimethylammonium bromide reverse micellar system

The higher order structure of Mucor miehei lipase and micelle size in a cationic cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) reverse micellar system was investigated. Circular dichroic (CD) measurement revealed that the lipase far-UV CD spectra changed markedly, going from buffer solution to the reverse micellar solution, and were very similar for any organic solvent used. The ellipticity of the solubilized lipase in the far-UV region markedly decreased with increasing water content (W(0): molar ratio of water to CTAB), indicating that the secondary structure of lipase changed with the water content. The linear correlation between the W(0) and the micelle size was obtained by measuring dynamic light scattering. From the linear correlation between the micelle size and W(0), the higher order structure of the solubilized lipase appears to be affected directly by the micellar interface. The species and concentration of alcohol as a cosurfactant had an inferior effect on lipase structure. Especially, at ratios of 1-pentanol to CTAB of less than 8, the secondary and tertiary structures of lipase were preserved in the reverse micelles. The CTAB concentration had little effect on the lipase structure in the micelles. The catalytic activity of the lipase solubilized in the CTAB reverse micelles increased with increasing the W(0).     

Immobilized enzymes in reverse micelles: studies with gel-entrapped trypsin and alpha-chymotrypsin in AOT reverse micelles

Trypsin and alpha-chymotrypsin were immobilized by gelentrapment in polyacrylamide cross-linked with N,N(1)-methylenebisacrylamide. The immobilized enzymes are catalytically efficient in suspensions of reverse micelles formed in isooctane by bis(2-ethylhexyl) sodium sulfosuccinate (AOT) and water. Both entrapped enzymes are stable in reverse micellar suspension at room temperature and pH 8.2 for 3 days and lose 30-40% activity after 1 week. The enzymes obey Michaelis-Menten kinetics in the investigated concentration range with K(m) values higher than those in solution. Activity of the enzymes is independent of the water content of the micellar solution. No shift in pH optimum was observed for immobilized trypsin activity toward Nalpha-benzoyl-L-arginine ethyl ester. The utility of the procedure, which combines the advantage of enzyme immobilization and enzymology in reverse micelles, is illustrated by an example of peptide synthesis. In particular, peptide synthesis (e. g., Z--Ala--Phe--Leu--NH(2)) using water-insoluble substrate has been performed with gelentrapped alpha-chymotrypsin in reverse micellar suspension with the advantage of efficient enzyme recycling.     

Reactivity of trypsin in reverse micelles: pH-effects on the W0 versus enzyme activity profiles

pH-Dependence of hydrolytic activity of trypsin has been studied in cationic reverse micellar system of cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) in (50% v/v) chloroform/isooctane using a positively charged substrate N_α-benzoyl-L-arginine ethyl ester (BAEE). The pH of the medium was varied from 4.0 to 8.5 with addition of 0.025 M citrate-phosphate buffer containing 1 mM CaCl₂. Optimum pH for maximum enzyme activity, pH_opt in reverse micelles is found to be similar to that observed in bulk aqueous solution (8.0–8.5). However, changes in activity of trypsin (k_cat) as a function of water content W₀ (W₀ = [H₂O]/[CTAB]) in reverse micelles are found to be pH dependent. At low pH (4.0) and low water content (W₀ = 5) the enzyme is more active in reverse micelles than in bulk aqueous solution by a factor of 2. This ‘superactivity’ is lost at higher W₀ values and the k_cat in reverse micelles is found to be similar to that observed in aqueous bulk. At pH 5, the enzyme activity is found to be independent of W₀ while at pH 6.0–6.5 the enzyme activity is low at W₀ 5 and increases with water content to a constant value which is still 50% lower than that in aqueous buffer. Above pH 7, the W_o-activity profile becomes distinctly bell shaped with W₀ optimum around 10–15. The enzyme activity at optimum W₀ is close to that observed in aqueous bulk.
