Type A chitinases (EC 3.2.1.14), GH family 18, attack chitin ((1 → 4)-2-acetamido-2-deoxy-β-d-glucan) and chito-oligosaccharides from the reducing end to catalyze release of chitobiose (N,N′-diacetylchitobiose) via hydrolytic cleavage of N-acetyl-β-d-glucosaminide (1 → 4)-β-linkages and are thus “exo-chitobiose hydrolases.” In this study, the chitinase type A from Serratia marcescens (SmaChiA) was used as a template for identifying two novel exo-chitobiose hydrolase type A enzymes, FbalChi18A and MvarChi18A, originating from the marine organisms Ferrimonas balearica and Microbulbifer variabilis, respectively. Both FbalChi18A and MvarChi18A were recombinantly expressed in Escherichia coli and were confirmed to exert exo-chitobiose hydrolase activity on chito-oligosaccharides, but differed in temperature and pH activity response profiles. Amino acid sequence comparison of the catalytic β/α barrel domain of each of the new enzymes showed individual differences, but ~69% identity of each to that of SmaChiA and highly conserved active site residues. Superposition of a model substrate on 3D structural models of the catalytic domain of the enzymes corroborated exo-chitobiose hydrolase type A activity for FbalChi18A and MvarChi18A, i.e., substrate attack from the reducing end. A main feature of both of the new enzymes was the presence of C-terminal 5/12 type carbohydrate-binding modules (SmaChiA has no C-terminal carbohydrate binding module). These new enzymes may be useful tools for utilization of chitin as an N-acetylglucosamine donor substrate via chitobiose. 相似文献

Identification of Carnobacterium spp. and Leuconostoc spp. in meat by genus-specific 16S rRNA probes
Oligonucleotide probes specific for Carnobacterium and Leuconostoc species were constructed from the variable regions of 16S rRNA obtained from the literature and sequence data bases. The probes were hybridized with crude nucleic acid extract from 32 type strains of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) commonly found on meat. Two of the probes hybridized only to the four Carnobacterium species whereas the other two hybridized only to five of the six Leuconostoc species tested. The probes were also hybridized with nucleic acids from unknown strains of LAB. The identification was consistent with the results of biochemical tests used to characterize the two genera. 相似文献

The gene encoding the cell-envelope-associated proteinase of Lactobacillus paracasei subsp. paracasei NCDO 151 (formerly Lactobacillus casei NCDO 151) was cloned and sequenced. The gene was located on the chromosome and encoded a polypeptide of 1902 amino acids. The proteinase is N-terminally cleaved upon maturation. It shows extensive homology to the Lactococcus lactis subsp. cremoris Wg2 proteinase. Similar to the situation in Lactococcus, a maturation gene was found upstream of the proteinase gene. The cloned proteinase gene was expressed in Lactobacillus plantarum. However, no expression was observed when the gene was cloned in Lactococcus lactis. 相似文献

1. Production of fatty acids, CO2 and glycerol from glucose and acetate was determined in slices of liver and adipose tissue taken from mature cats. 2. Acetate was the predominant carbon source for de novo fatty acid synthesis in both liver and adipose tissue. 3. Fatty acid synthesis occurred at much greater rates in adipose tissue than in liver. 4. Relative lipogenic capacity (ratio of production of long-chain fatty acids and glycerol to oxidation of substrates) was 20 times greater in adipose tissue than in liver with both substrates. 相似文献
