葡萄糖苷酶在食品、医药、生物质转化等领域具有重要的应用价值,因此发掘适应性强、性质优良的β-葡萄糖苷酶是国内外研究的热点。本文对尚未报道的来源于嗜酸古菌(Cuniculiplasmadivulgatum)GH1家族的葡萄糖苷酶进行了克隆表达和酶学性质测定,以期找到更优的β-葡萄糖苷酶。从NCBI数据库中获取了C. divulgatum来源的GH1葡萄糖苷酶氨基酸序列,然后制备重组质粒pET-30a(+)-CdBglA,并在大肠杆菌BL21(DE3)中诱导表达重组蛋白,对纯化后的CdBglA进行酶学性质研究。结果发现,重组酶CdBglA的分子量为56.0 kDa,最适pH为5.5,最适温度为55℃。该酶具有良好的pH稳定性,在pH 5.5-11.0范围内处理1 h,仍维持92.33%以上的酶活力。以p NPG为底物时的酶促反应动力学参数Km、Vmax和Kcat/Km分别为0.81 mmol、291.99μmol/(mg·min)和387.50s-1mmol-1。其在终浓度5mmol/L重金属离子的影响下均能保持90.33%以上的酶活力;在15%的乙醇溶液中酶活力被提高了28.67%,在2...

Stabilization of activity of oxidoreductases by their immobilization onto special functionalized glass and novel aminocellulose film using different coupling reagents

Glucose oxidase (GOD), horseradish peroxidase (HRP), and lactate oxidase (LOD) were covalently immobilized on special NH(2)-functionalized glass and on a novel NH(2)-cellulose film via 13 different coupling reagents. The properties of these immobilized enzymes, such as activity, storage stability, and thermostability, are strongly dependent on the coupling reagent. For example, GOD immobilized by cyanuric chloride on the NH(2)-cellulose film loses approximately half of its immobilized activity after 30 days of storage at 4 degrees C or after treatment at 65 degrees C for 30 min. In contrast, GOD immobilized by L-ascorbic acid onto the same NH(2)-cellulose film retains 90% of its initial activity after 1 year of storage at 4 degrees C and 92% after heat treatment at 65 degrees C for 30 min. Unlike GOD, in the case of LOD only immobilization on special NH(2)-functionalized glass, e.g., via cyanuric chloride, led to a stabilization of the enzyme activity in comparison to the native enzyme. The operational stability of immobilized HRP was up to 40 times higher than that of the native enzyme if coupling to the new NH(2)-cellulose film led to an amide or sulfonamide bond. Regarding the kinetics of the immobilized enzymes, the coupling reagent plays a minor role for the enzyme substrate affinity, which is characterized by the apparent Michaelis constant (K(M,app)). The NH(2)-functionalized support material as well as the immobilized density of the protein and/or immobilized activity has a strong influence on the K(M,app) value. In all cases, K(M,app) decreases with increasing immobilized enzyme protein density and particularly drastically for GOD.     

Covalent immobilization of glucose oxidase onto poly(styrene-co-glycidyl methacrylate) monodisperse fluorescent microspheres synthesized by dispersion polymerization

In this study, micron-sized poly(styrene-co-glycidyl methacrylate) (PSt-GMA) fluorescent microspheres of 5.1microm in diameter were synthesized via dispersion polymerization of styrene and glycidyl methacrylate in the presence of 1,4-bis(5-phenyloxazol-2-yl) benzene (POPOP), which provided surface functional groups for covalent immobilization of enzymes. In an effort to study the biocompatibility of the microspheres' surface, glucose oxidase and beta-d-(+)-glucose were selected as a catalytic system for enzymatic assays. A colorimetric method was adopted in evaluating enzymatic activity by introducing horseradish peroxidase (HRP). Both the immobilization amount and the apparent activity of immobilized glucose oxidase from Aspergillus niger (GOD) were determined at different conditions. The results show that the immobilized enzymes retained approximately 28 to 34% activity, as compared with free enzymes, without pronounced alteration of the optimum pH and temperature. Kinetics studies show that the corresponding values of K(m) and V(max) are 23.2944 mM and 21.6450M/min.mg GOD for free enzymes and 35.1780 mM and 15.4799M/min.mg GOD for immobilized enzymes. The operational stability studies show that immobilized GOD could retain nearly 50% initial activity after being washed 20 times. The results suggest that the resultant PSt-GMA fluorescent microspheres provide a suitable surface for covalent immobilizing biomolecules; therefore, they have the potential of being used in fluorescence-based immunoassays in high-throughput screening or biosensors.     

Stabilization of alpha-chymotrypsin by covalent immobilization on amine-functionalized superparamagnetic nanogel

Stabilization of alpha-chymotrypsin (CT) by covalent immobilization on the amine-functionalized magnetic nanogel was studied. The amino groups containing superparamagnetic nanogel was obtained by Hoffman degradation of the polyacrylamide (PAM)-coated Fe(3)O(4) nanoparticles prepared by facile photochemical in situ polymerization. CT was then covalently bound to the magnetic nanogel with reactive amino groups by using 1-ethyl-3-(3-dimethylaminepropyl) carbodiimide as coupling reagent. The binding capacity was determined to be 61mg enzyme/g nanogel by BCA protein assay. Specific activity of the immobilized CT was measured to be 0.93U/(mgmin), 59.3% as that of free CT. The obtained immobilized enzyme had better resistance to temperature and pH inactivation in comparison to free enzyme and thus widened the ranges of reaction pH and temperature. The immobilized enzyme exhibited good thermostability, storage stability and reusability. Kinetic parameters were determined for both the immobilized and free enzyme. The value of K(m) of the immobilized enzyme was larger than did the free form, whereas the V(max) was smaller for the immobilized enzyme.     

Implantable hollow fiber bioreactor as a potential treatment for hypercholesterolemia: characterization of the catalytic unit

Previous studies have shown that the modification of low density lipoprotein (LDL) by the enzyme phospholipase A(2)(PLA(2))results in a reduction of cholesterol levels in the plasma of hypercholesterolemic rabbits, due to accelerated clearance of the modified LDL. In the current study, we established techniques and optimized the ratio of enzyme to support for the immobilization of PLA(2) on a polymeric support. Hollow fiber bioreactors made from polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) polymers were used to encapsulate immobilized PLA(2). This design was adopted to eliminate hemolysis of red blood cells by the enzyme. Characterization of the resulting immobilized enzyme in terms of its activity, Michaelis-Menten kinetic constants, and the variation of its activity with incubation time is presented. The enzyme activity was not significantly altered upon incubation at 37 degrees C in lipoprotein-deficient serum (LPDS), over the course of 2 months. The Michaelis-Menten kinetics constants are K(M) = 8.9 mM, V(max) = 6434.2 for the free enzyme and K(app) (M) = 16.7 mM, V(app) (max) = 619.7 for the immobilized enzyme. These data suggest that a system based on immobilized PLA(2) in conjunction with hollow fiber bioreactors (HFBs) may be a good candidate for lowering LDL levels in plasma.

A glucose oxidase electrode based on polypyrrole with polyanion/PEG/enzyme conjugate dopant

This study investigated a new glucose sensor prepared by electrochemical polymerization of pyrrole with polyanion/poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG)/glucose oxidase (GOD) conjugate dopants. GOD was coupled to a strong polyanion, poly(2-acrylamido-2-methylpropane sulfonic acid) (AMPS) via PEG spacer to effectively and reproducibly immobilize GOD within a polypyrrole matrix onto a Pt electrode surface. PEGs with four different chain lengths (1000, 2000, 3000, and 4000) were used as spacers to study the spacer length effect on enzyme immobilization and electrode function. After conjugation, more than 90% of the GOD bioactivity was preserved and the bioactivity of the conjugated GOD increased with longer PEG spacers. The resulting polyanion/PEG/GOD conjugate was used as a dopant for electropolymerizing pyrrole. The activity of the immobilized enzyme on the electrode ranged from 119 to 209 mU cm(-2) and the bioactivity increased with the use of longer PEG spacers. The amperometric response of the enzyme electrode was linear up to 20 mM glucose concentration with a sensitivity ranging from 180 to 270 nA mM(-1) cm(-2). The kinetic parameters Michaelis-Menten constant (K(M)(app)) and maximum current density (j(max)) depended on the amount of active enzyme, level of substrate diffusion, and PEG spacer length. An increase in the electrical charge passed during polymerization (thus, increasing polypyrrole thickness) to 255 mC cm(-2) increased the sensitivity of the enzyme electrode because of the greater amount of incorporated enzyme. However, although the amount of incorporated GOD continued to increase when the charge increased above 255 mC cm(-2), the sensitivity began to decline gradually. The condition for preparing the enzyme electrode was optimized at 800 mV potential with a dopant concentration of 1 mg ml(-1).     

Enzymatic activity of glucose oxidase covalently wired via viologen to electrically conductive polypyrrole films

The surface functionalization of an electrically conductive polypyrrole film (PPY) with a viologen, (N-(2-carboxyl-ethyl)-N'-(4-vinyl-benzyl)-4,4'-bipyridinium dichloride, or CVV) for the covalent immobilization of glucose oxidase (GOD) has been carried out. The viologen was first synthesized and graft polymerized on PPY film. It then served as an anchor via its carboxyl groups for the covalent immobilization of GOD. The surface composition of the as-functionalized substrates was characterized by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The effects of the CVV monomer concentration on the CVV-graft polymer concentration and the amount of GOD immobilized on the surface were investigated. The activity of the immobilized GOD was compared with that of free GOD and the kinetic effects were also obtained. The cyclic voltammetric (CV) response of the GOD-functionalized PPY substrates was studied in a phosphate buffer solution under an argon atmosphere. The CV results support the mechanism in which CVV acts as a mediator to transfer electron between the electrode and enzyme, and hence regenerating the enzyme in the enzymatic reaction with glucose. High sensitivity and linear response of the enzyme electrode was observed with glucose concentration ranging from 0 to 20 mM.     

Covalent immobilization of enzymes within micro-aqueous organic media

Traditional covalent immobilization of enzymes was mostly operated within water phase. However, most of enzymes are flexible when they are in water environment, and the covalent reactions generally lead to complete or partial activity losing due to the protein conformational changes.This paper examined enzyme covalent immobilization operated in micro-aqueous organic media, to display the differences between two environments of immobilization within water and micro-aqueous organic solvent by activity and stability determination of the resulting immobilized enzymes. Catalase, trypsin, horseradish peroxidase, laccase and glucose oxidase have been employed as model enzymes. Results showed the thermal, pH and reusable stabilities of the micro-aqueous organic covalently immobilized enzymes were improved when compared with the immobilized enzymes within water. Micro-aqueous covalent immobilization showed a remarkable advantage in remaining the enzymes catalytic activity for all the five enzymes compared with the traditional water phase immobilization. And the optimum pH values for both immobilization within water and micro-aqueous organic media shifted slightly.     

Immobilization of glucose oxidase in polypyrrole/polytetrahydrofuran graft copolymers

Glucose oxidase (GOD) was immobilized in four different conducting polymer matrices, namely: polypyrrole, (PPy), poly(pyrrole-graft-polytetrahydrofuran), (1) and (3); and poly(pyrrole-graft-polystyrene/polytetrahydrofuran), (2). The kinetic parameters V(max) and K(m), and the optimum temperature were determined for both immobilized and native enzymes. The effect of electrolysis time and several supporting electrolytes, p-toluenesulfonic acid, p-toluene sulfonic acid (PTSA), sodium p-toluene sulfonate, sodium p-toluene sulfonate (NaPTS), and sodium dodecyl sulfate, sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), on enzyme immobilization were investigated. The high K(m) value (59.9 mM) of enzyme immobilized in PPy was decreased via immobilization in graft copolymer matrices of pyrrole. V(max), which was 2.25 mM/min for pure PPy, was found as 4.71 mM/min for compound (3).     

Silver nanoparticle (AgNPs) doped gum acacia-gelatin-silica nanohybrid: an effective support for diastase immobilization

An effective carrier matrix for diastase alpha amylase immobilization has been fabricated by gum acacia-gelatin dual templated polymerization of tetramethoxysilane. Silver nanoparticle (AgNp) doping to this hybrid could significantly enhance the shelf life of the impregnated enzyme while retaining its full bio-catalytic activity. The doped nanohybrid has been characterized as a thermally stable porous material which also showed multipeak photoluminescence under UV excitation. The immobilized diastase alpha amylase has been used to optimize the conditions for soluble starch hydrolysis in comparison to the free enzyme. The optimum pH for both immobilized and free enzyme hydrolysis was found to be same (pH=5), indicating that the immobilization made no major change in enzyme conformation. The immobilized enzyme showed good performance in wide temperature range (from 303 to 323 K), 323 K being the optimum value. The kinetic parameters for the immobilized, (K(m)=10.30 mg/mL, V(max)=4.36 μmol mL(-1)min(-1)) and free enzyme (K(m)=8.85 mg/mL, V(max)=2.81 μmol mL(-1)min(-1)) indicated that the immobilization improved the overall stability and catalytic property of the enzyme. The immobilized enzyme remained usable for repeated cycles and did not lose its activity even after 30 days storage at 40°C, while identically synthesized and stored silver undoped hybrid lost its ~31% activity in 48 h. Present study revealed the hybrids to be potentially useful for biomedical and optical applications.     

A smart bioconjugate of chymotrypsin

alpha-Chymotrypsin was immobilized on Eudragit S-100 via covalent coupling with 93% retention of proteolytic activity. The conjugate behaved as a smart biocatalyst and functioned as a pH-dependent reversibly soluble-insoluble biocatalyst. The pH optimum of chymotrypsin broadened on immobilization, and the immobilized preparation showed better stability at and above pH 6.5 as compared to the free enzyme. The immobilized enzyme showed a slight shift in the temperature optimum and enhanced thermal stability retaining 70% of its original activity after 1 h of exposure to 40 degrees C as compared to the 25% residual activity for the free enzyme under identical conditions. K(m) and V(max) values did not change on immobilization. Also, the immobilized preparation was quite stable to reuse, it retained almost 85% of its original activity even after a fifth precipitation cycle. UV spectroscopy and circular dichroism were used to probe structural changes in the enzyme upon immobilization.
