大鼠肝CTP:磷酸胆碱胞苷酰转移酶的部分纯化及其特性

 介绍一种部分纯化CTP:磷酸胆碱胞苷酰转移酶(CT)的方法,并对部分纯化CT的性质进行了研究。经盐析、DEAE-纤维素、磷酸-纤维素及CTP-聚琼脂糖柱层析可将大鼠肝胞液中的CT纯化100倍以上,结果重复性好。CT在胞液中及经初步纯化性质稳定,但进一步纯化则其活性很易丧失。鼠肝总磷脂及油酸可激活CT、使其聚合,磷脂酰絲氨酸是其中起主要作用的CT激活物;CT聚合物可被辛基-葡萄糖苷解聚,且保留80％酶活性。用CT常规底物CTP的类似物观察CT的特异性,发现dCTP是比CTP更好的底物,CDP、dCDP能抑制CT对CTP或dCTP的作用,而CMP、dCMP对酶活性无影响。结果提示分子中糖的2′-OH并非CT底物所必需,而和胞苷相连的三个磷酸则不可缺少。

固定化尿苷-胞苷激酶和聚磷酸激酶偶联催化制备5′-胞苷酸

尿苷-胞苷激酶作为生物体核苷酸代谢补偿途径中的重要催化剂，可以催化胞苷的磷酸化反应合成5′-胞苷酸 (简称胞苷酸)，但需要NTP作为磷酸供体。为了提高胞苷酸的生产效率，文中首先使用大肠杆菌分别异源表达来源于嗜热栖热菌Thermus thermophiles HB8的尿苷-胞苷激酶和来源于类球红细菌Rhodobacter sphaeroides的聚磷酸激酶，其中尿苷-胞苷激酶用于催化胞苷和ATP形成胞苷酸，聚磷酸激酶则用于ATP的循环再生。然后，使用D403金属螯合树脂吸附Ni2+形成固定化载体，再利用固定化载体特异性吸附重组酶形成固定化酶。最后，单因素优化实验确定固定化酶的催化反应条件，在30 ℃、pH 8.0的条件下，以60 mmol/L胞苷和0.5 mmol/L ATP为底物，可实现5批次的高效连续催化反应，胞苷酸平均摩尔得率达到91.2%。上述制备方法反应成本低，产物得率高，酶利用率高，在工业生产中具有较好的应用潜力。     

问：ATP是唯一的直接提供可利用能量的物质吗？

答：新陈代谢所需要的能量是由细胞内的ATP直接提供的,ATP是新陈代谢所需能量的直接来源,但体内有些合成反应不一定都直接利用ATP供能,而可以利用其他三磷酸核苷。例如UTP(三磷酸尿苷)用于多糖合成、CTP(三磷酸胞苷1用于磷脂合成、GTP(三磷酸鸟苷)用于蛋白质合成等。但物质氧化时释放的能量大都是必须先合成ATP。然后ATP可使UDP、CDP或GDP生成相应的UTP、CTP或GTP。

Ethanol production by immobilized Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Saccharomyces uvarum, and Zymomonas mobilis

Saccharomyces cerevisiae NRRL Y-2034, S, uvarum NRRL Y-1347, and Zymomonas mobilis NRRL B-806 each were separately immobilized in a Ca-alginate matrix and incubated in the presence of a free-flowing and continuous 1, 3, 5, 10, or 20% (w/w) glucose solution. In general, the yeast cells, converted 100percnt; of the 1, 3, and 5% glucose to alcohol within 48 h and maintained such a conversion rate for at least two weeks. The bacterium converted ca. 90% (w/w) of the 1, 3, and 5% glucose to alcohol continuously for one week. However, both the yeast and bacterium were inhibited in the highest glucose (20% w/w) solution. All of the immobilized cultures produced some alcohol for at least 14 days. Immobilized S. cerevisiae was the best alcohol producer of all of the glucose concentrations; the yeast yielded 4.7 g ethanol/100 g solution within 72 h in the 10% glucose solution. After 7-8 days in the 10% solution, S. cerevisiae produced ethanol at 100% of theoretical yield (5.0 g ethanol/100 g solution), with a gradual decrease in alcohol production by 14 days. Immobillized S. uvarum produced a maximum of 4.0 g ethanol/100 g solution within 2 days and then declined to ca. 1.0 g ethanol/100 g solution after 7 days continuous fermentation in the 10% glucose solution. Zymomonas mobilis reached its maximum ethanol production at 4 days (4.7 g/100 g solution), and then diminished similarly to S. uvarum. The development of a multiple disk shaft eliminated the problem both of uneven distribution of alginate-encapsulated cells and of glucose channeling within the continuous-flow fermentor column. This invention improved alcohol production about threefold for the yeast cells.     

Production of cytidine 5'-monophosphate N-acetylneuraminic acid using recombinant Escherichia coli as a biocatalyst

An Escherichia coli strain expressing three recombinant enzymes, i.e., cytidine 5'-monophosphate (CMP) kinase, sialic acid aldolase and cytidine 5'-monophosphate N-acetylneuraminic acid (CMP-NeuAc) synthetase, was utilized as a biocatalyst for the production of CMP-NeuAc. Both recombinant E. coli extract and whole cells catalyzed the production of CMP-NeuAc from CMP (20 mM), N-acetylmannosamine (40 mM), pyruvate (60 mM), ATP (1 mM), and acetylphosphate (60 mM), resulting in 90% conversion yield based on initial CMP concentration used. It was confirmed that endogenous acetate kinase can catalyze not only the ATP regeneration in the conversion of CMP to CDP but also the conversion of CDP to CTP. On the other hand, endogenous pyruvate kinase and polyphosphate kinase could not regenerate ATP efficiently. The addition of exogenous acetate kinase to the reaction mixture containing the cell extract increased the conversion rate of CMP to CMP-NeuAc by about 1.5-fold, but the addition of exogenous inorganic pyrophosphatase had no influence on the reaction. This E. coli strain could also be employed as an enzyme source for in situ regeneration of CMP-NeuAc in a sialyltransferase catalyzed reaction. About 90% conversion yield of alpha2,3-sialyl-N-acetyllactosamine was obtained from N-acetyllactosamine (20 mM), CMP (2 mM), N-acetylmannosamine (40 mM), pyruvate (60 mM), ATP (1 mM), and acetyl phosphate (80 mM) using the recombinant E. coli extract and alpha2,3-sialyltransferase.     

Evaluation of nanoparticle-immobilized cellulase for improved ethanol yield in simultaneous saccharification and fermentation reactions

Ethanol yields were 2.1 (P = 0.06) to 2.3 (P = 0.01) times higher in simultaneous saccharification and fermentation (SSF) reactions of microcrystalline cellulose when cellulase was physisorbed on silica nanoparticles compared to enzyme in solution. In SSF reactions, cellulose is hydrolyzed to glucose by cellulase while yeast simultaneously ferments glucose to ethanol. The 35°C temperature and the presence of ethanol in SSF reactions are not optimal conditions for cellulase. Immobilization onto solid supports can stabilize the enzyme and promote activity at non-optimum reaction conditions. Mock SSF reactions that did not contain yeast were used to measure saccharification products and identify the mechanism for the improved ethanol yield using immobilized cellulase. Cellulase adsorbed to 40 nm silica nanoparticles produced 1.6 times (P = 0.01) more glucose than cellulase in solution in 96 h at pH 4.8 and 35°C. There was no significant accumulation (<250 μg) of soluble cellooligomers in either the solution or immobilized enzyme reactions. This suggests that the mechanism for the immobilized enzyme's improved glucose yield compared to solution enzyme is the increased conversion of insoluble cellulose hydrolysis products to soluble cellooligomers at 35°C and in the presence of ethanol. The results show that silica-immobilized cellulase can be used to produce increased ethanol yields in the conversion of lignocellulosic materials by SSF.     

Enzymatic Production of Pyrimidine Nucleotides Using Corynebacterium ammoniagenes Cells and Recombinant Escherichia coli Cells: Enzymatic Production of CDP-Choline from Orotic Acid and Choline Chloride (Part I)

Enzymatic production of cytidine diphosphate choline (CDP-choline) using orotic acid and choline chloride as substrates was investigated using a 200-ml beaker as a reaction vessel. When Corynebacterium ammoniagenes KY13505 cells were used as the enzyme source, UMP was accumulated up to 28.6 g/liter (77.6 mm) from orotic acid after 26 h of reaction. In this reaction, UDP and UTP were also accumulated, but CTP, a direct precursor of CDP-choline, was not accumulated sufficiently. Escherichia coli JF646/pMW6 cells, which overproduce CTP synthetase by selfcloning of the pyrG gene, were used together with cells of KY13505 for the enzymatic reaction using orotic acid as a substrate. CTP was produced at 8.95 g/liter (15.1 mm) after 23 h of this reaction. To produce CDP-choline, two additional enzyme activities were needed. E. coli MM294/pUCK3 and MM294/pCC41 cells, which express a choline kinase from Saccharomyces cerevisiae (CKIase; encoded by the CKI gene) and a cholinephosphate cytidylyltransferase from S. cerevisiae (CCTase; encoded by the CCT gene) respectively, were added to this CTP-producing reaction system. After 23 h of the reaction using orotic acid and choline chloride as substrates, 7.7 g/liter (15.1 mm) of CDP-choline was accumulated without addition of ATP or phosphoribosylpyrophosphate (PRPP). ATP and PRPP required in the CDP-choline forming reaction system are biosynthesized by those cells using glucose as a substrate.     

NaCl胁迫对超大甜椒种子萌发及幼苗生长的影响

以超大甜椒种子和幼苗为材料,采用水培法研究低、中、高浓度(50、150、250 mmol·L-1)NaCl胁迫对其种子萌发和幼苗生长的影响.结果显示:(1)低浓度NaCl处理促进种子萌发,而中、高浓度NaCl处理抑制种子萌发;NaCl处理第18天时,高浓度NaCl处理植株全部死亡,其余各处理植株苗高、叶面积、地上部鲜重和干重均随处理浓度升高而下降,但低浓度NaCl能刺激超大甜椒的根系生长.(2)低、中浓度NaCl处理时,植株叶绿素含量未受到大的影响,类胡萝卜素含量却随胁迫时间延长微量升高;在盐胁迫7 d的周期内,低、中浓度NaCl处理植株MDA含量、SOD活性和可溶性糖含量均随浓度升高及时间延长显著增加,脯氨酸含量在低浓度下变化不明显而中浓度下显著升高;在高浓度NaCl处理3 d中,MDA含量急剧升高,SOD活性先升高后下降,脯氨酸和可溶性糖含量显著增加.研究发现,NaCl胁迫浓度越高对超大甜椒种子萌发和幼苗生长的抑制效应越明显;低中浓度NaCl处理幼苗能通过自身的抗氧化酶清除系统和渗透调节物质来抵抗胁迫引起伤害,类胡萝卜素可能也有一定的抗胁迫作用,而高浓度NaCl处理增加了膜脂过氧化程度,严重影响了活性氧和渗透调节物质的正常代谢.
