Agarase genes of non-marine agarolytic bacterium Cellvibrio sp. were cloned into Escherichia coli and one of the genes obtained using HindIII was sequenced. From nucleotide and putative amino acid sequences (713 aa, molecular mass; 78,771 Da) of the gene, designated as agarase AgaA, the gene was found to have closest homology to the Saccharophagus degradans (formerly, Microbulbifer degradans) 2-40 aga86 gene, belonging to glycoside hydrolase family 86 (GH86). The putative protein appears to be a non-secreted protein because of the absence of a signal sequence. The recombinant protein was purified with anion exchange and gel filtration columns after ammonium sulfate precipitation and the molecular mass (79 kDa) determined by SDS-PAGE and subsequent enzymography agreed with the estimated value, suggesting that the enzyme is monomeric. The optimal pH and temperature for enzymatic hydrolysis of agarose were 6.5 and 42.5 degrees C, and the enzyme was stable under 40 degrees C. LC-MS and NMR analyses revealed production of a neoagarobiose and a neoagarotetraose with a small amount of a neoagarohexaose during hydrolysis of agarose, indicating that the enzyme is a beta-agarase.  相似文献

The phenotypic and agarolytic features of an unidentified marine bacteria isolated from the southern ocean of China was studied. The strain was gram-negative, aerobic, and polarly flagellated. It was identified as the genus Alteromonas according to its morphological and physiological characterization. In solid agar, the isolate produced a diffusible agarase that caused agar softening around the colonies. An extracellular agarase was purified by the procedure of ammonium sulfate precipitation, gel filtration on Sephacryl S-100HR, and ion-exchange chromatography on diethylaminoethyl-Sepharose. The purified protein exhibited a single band on SDS-PAGE with a molecular mass of 39.5 kDa. The enzyme hydrolyzed the β-1,4-glycosidic linkages of agar, yielding neoagarotetraose and neoagarohexaose as the main products. The optimum reaction temperature of the agarase was 35°C, with a narrow range from 30 to 45 °C. The enzyme activity reached the maximum at pH 7.0 and in the presence of 2% NaCl. Molecular mass and degrading products showed that the agarase from Alteromonas sp. SY 37-12 was much different from those previously reported.  相似文献

The phenotypic and agarolytic features of an unidentified marine bacteria that was isolated from the southern Pacific coast was investigated. The strain was gram negative, obligately aerobic, and polarly flagellated. On the basis of several phenotypic characters and a phylogenetic analysis of the genes coding for the 16S rRNA, this strain was identified as Pseudoalteromonas antarctica strain N-1. In solid agar, this isolate produced a diffusible agarase that caused agar softening around the colonies. An extracellular agarase was purified by ammonium sulfate precipitation, gel filtration, and ion-exchange chromatography on DEAE-cellulose. The purified protein was determined to be homogeneous on the basis of sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, and it had a molecular mass of 33 kDa. The enzyme hydrolyzed the β-1,4-glycosydic linkages of agar, yielding neoagarotetraose and neoagarohexaose as the main products, and exhibited maximal activity at pH 7. The enzyme was stable at temperatures up to 30°C, and its activity was not affected by salt concentrations up to 0.5 M NaCl.  相似文献

Τhe β-agarase gene agaA, cloned from a marine bacterium, Pseudoalteromonas sp. CY24, consists of 1,359 nucleotides encoding 453 amino acids in a sequence corresponding to a catalytic domain of glycosyl hydrolase family 16 (GH16) and a carbohydrate-binding module type 13 (CBM13). The recombinant enzyme is an endo-type agarase that hydrolyzes β-1,4-linkages of agarose, yielding neoagarotetraose and neoagarohexaose as the predominant products. In two cleavage patterns, AgaA digested the smallest substrate, neoagarooctaose, into neoagarobiose, neoagarotetraose and neoagarohexaose. Site directed mutation was performed to investigate the differences between AgaA and AgaD of Vibrio sp. PO-303, identifying residues V109VTS112 as playing a key role in the enzyme reaction.  相似文献

Extracellular agarase produced by the Pseudoalteromonas strain JYBCL 1 is used in a variety of applications in the biotechnology, pharmaceutical, cosmetic, and food industries. The optimization of culture conditions for agarase-producing microbes and agarase activity is thus an important consideration in many industrial applications. In this study, the optimum medium composition and culture conditions for the JYBCL 1 strain were determined using the ??one factor at a time?? (OFAT) method and a Plackett-Burman design. Optimal cell growth was obtained at a temperature of 25°C and when 10 g/L tryptone was present in the culture medium. Optimal agarase activity occurred at a temperature of 40°C and at pH 6. The presence of carbonyl groups in the extracellular agarase hydrolysis products was verified using FT-IR. LC-MS identified the hydrolyzates as neoagarohexaose, neoagarotetraose, and neoagarobiose. The extracellular agarase produced by the JYBCL 1 strain used in this study was identified as ??-agarase by 13C-NMR spectroscopy.  相似文献

A marine bacterial strain isolated from the Bay of San Vicente, Chile, was identified as Alteromonas sp. strain C-1. In the presence of agar, this strain produced high levels of an extracellular agarase. The production of agarase was repressed by glucose, with a parallel decrease in bacterial growth. The enzyme was purified to homogeneity by anion-exchange chromatography and gel filtration, with an overall yield of 45%. The enzyme has a molecular weight of 52,000, is salt sensitive, and hydrolyzes agar, yielding neoagarotetraose as the main product, with an optimum pH of about 6.5.  相似文献

Extracellular agarase of Bacillus cereus ASK202 was purified 32-fold, giving a single band on PAGE with activity staining. The Mr of purified agarase was determined as 90 kDa by SDS-PAGE. The N-terminal amino acid was sequenced and the sequence did not show homology to any other known agarases. The optimum pH and temperature were 7.0 and 40 °C, respectively. This enzyme was found to be a -agarase which catalyzed the hydrolysis of the -1,4 linkage of agarose to yield neoagarohexaose, neoagarotetraose and neoagarobiose.  相似文献

Marine bacterium Vibrio sp. F-6, utilizing agarose as a carbon source to produce agarases, was isolated from seawater samples taken from Qingdao, China. Two agarases (AG-a and AG-b) were purified to a homogeneity from the cultural supernatant of Vibrio sp. F-6 through ammonium sulfate precipitation, Q-Sepharose FF chromatography, and Sephacryl S-100 gel filtration. Molecular weights of agarases were estimated to be 54.0 kDa (AG-a) and 34.5 kDa (AG-b) by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE). The optimum pH values for AG-a and AG-b were about 7.0 and 9.0, respectively. AG-a was stable in the pH range of 4.0-9.0 and AG-b was stable in the pH range of 4.0-10.0. The optimum temperatures of AG-a and AG-b were 40 and 55 degrees C, respectively. AG-a was stable at temperature below 50 degrees C. AG-b was stable at temperature below 60 degrees C. Zn(2+), Mg(2+) or Ca(2+) increased AG-a activity, while Mn(2+), Cu(2+) or Ca(2+) increased AG-b activity. However, Ag(+), Hg(2+), Fe(3+), EDTA and SDS inhibited AG-a and AG-b activities. The main hydrolysates of agarose by AG-a were neoagarotetraose and neoagarohexaose. The main hydrolysates of agarose by AG-b were neoagarooctaose and neoagarohexaose. When the mixture of AG-a and AG-b were used, agarose was mainly degraded into neoagarobiose.  相似文献

The gene for a thermostable β-agarase from Agarivorans sp. JA-1 was cloned and sequenced. It comprised an open reading frame of 2,988 base pairs, which encode a protein of 109,450 daltons consisting of 995 amino acid residues. A comparison of the entire sequence showed that the enzyme has 98.8% sequence similarities to β-agarase from Vibrio sp. JT1070, indicating that it belongs to the family glycoside hydrolase (GH)-50. The gene corresponding to a mature protein of 976 amino acids was inserted and expressed in Escherichia coli. The recombinant β-agarase was purified to homogeneity. It had maximal activity at 40°C and pH 8.0 in the presence of 1 mM NaCl and 1 mM CaCl2. The enzyme hydrolyzed agarose as well as neoagarohexaose and neoagarotetraose to yield neoagarobiose as the main product. Thus, the enzyme would be useful for the industrial production of neoagarobiose.  相似文献

The production of agar-oligosaccharides from agarose by free and immobilized agarase, obtained from a Pseudomonas aeruginosa AG LSL-11 was investigated and the activity, longevity and the operational stability of immobilized enzyme was compared with that of the free enzyme. The agar hydrolyzed products of free enzyme and immobilized enzyme were neoagarobiose, neoagarotetraose and neoagarohexaose as evidenced by LC-MS analysis. The immobilization of agarase was confirmed by SEM and also by the enzymatic transformation of agarose into agaroligosaccharides. The free agarase showed maximum activity at 40°C, whereas it’s immobilized counterpart showed maximum activity at 45oC, however, the optimum pH for both systems remained unchanged (pH 8.0). The relative activities of free agarase at pH 9.0 and 10.0 were 90 and 74%, respectively, whereas, the corresponding activities of the immobilized system were determined to be 97 and 90%. The stabilities of free agarase at pH 9.0 and 10.0 were 80 and 60% respectively, but for the immobilized system the respective residual activities were estimated to be 97 and 85%. Immobilized agarase appears to be more tolerant to high temperatures in terms of its activity and stability as it is compared to that of the free enzyme which retained 74 and 50.84% of relative activity at 55 and 60°C while, free agarase retained only 40 and 16.79% of its original activity. Furthermore, the immobilized agarase could be reused in batches efficiently for eight cycles, and could be stored for 3 months at 4°C as wet beads and for more than 6 months as dry beads.  相似文献

An extracellular β-agarase (AgaA34) was purified from a newly isolated marine bacterium, Agarivorans albus YKW-34 from the gut of a turban shell. AgaA34 was purified to homogeneity by ion exchange and gel filtration chromatographies with a recovery of 30% and a fold of ten. AgaA34 was composed of a single polypeptide chain with the molecular mass of 50 kDa. N-terminal amino acid sequencing revealed a sequence of ASLVTSFEEA, which exhibited a high similarity (90%) with those of agarases from glycoside hydrolase family 50. The pH and temperature optima of AgaA34 were pH 8.0 and 40°C, respectively. It was stable over pH 6.0–11.0 and at temperature up to 50°C. Hydrolysis of agarose by AgaA34 produced neoagarobiose (75 mol%) and neoagarotetraose (25 mol%), whose structures were identified by matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization time-of-flight mass spectroscopy and 13C NMR. AgaA34 cleaved both neoagarohexaose and neoagarotetraose into neoagarobiose. The k cat/K m values for hydrolysis agarose and neoagarotetraose were 4.04 × 103 and 8.1 × 102 s−1 M−1, respectively. AgaA34 was resistant to denaturing reagents (sodium dodecyl sulfate and urea). Metal ions were not required for its activity, while reducing reagents (β-Me and dithiothreitol, DTT) increased its activity by 30%.  相似文献

Microbulbifer strain CMC-5 was isolated from decomposing seaweeds, and was found to degrade agar, alginate, carboxymethyl cellulose, carrageenan, xylan, and chitin. The extracellular agarase enzyme from strain CMC-5 was purified 103-fold by ultrafiltration, ion-exchange chromatography, using diethylaminoethyl sepharose FF, and gel filtration, using sephacryl S-300HR, with a yield of 6.7%. Zymogram and protein staining of the purified agarase on a SDS-polyacrylamide gel revealed a single band, with an apparent molecular weight of 59 kDa. The purified enzyme was endo-type β-agarase, as it was able to hydrolyze the β-1, 4 glycosidic linkages of agarose, releasing neoagarotetraose and neoagarohexaose as the end products. The optimum pH and temperature of agarase were 7 and 50°C, respectively. Thermal stability studies indicated that the agarase retained 62% of its activity after incubating at 50°C for 30 min. Treatment with EDTA reduced the agarase activity by 54%. The agarase activity was stimulated by the presence of Ca2+ and Mg2+ ions; whereas, Zn2+, Hg2+, Cu2+, Fe2+, and Co2+ abolished the activity. Further, the presence of NaCl at concentrations lower than 100 mM caused a decrease in the agarase activity; whereas, the activity was enhanced up to a concentration of 500 mM.  相似文献

Agarases are generally classified into glycoside hydrolase families 16, 50, and 86 and are found to degrade agarose to frequently generate neoagarobiose, neoagarotetraose, or neoagarohexaose as the main products. In this study we have cloned a novel endo-type beta-agarase gene, agaB, from marine Pseudoalteromonas sp. CY24. The novel agarase encoded by agaB gene has no significant sequence similarity with any known proteins including all glycoside hydrolases. It degrades agarose to generate neoagarooctaose and neoagarodecaose as the main end products. Based on the analyses of enzymatic kinetics and degradation patterns of different oligosaccharides, the agarase AgaB appears to have a large substrate binding cleft that accommodates 12 sugar units, with 8 sugar units toward the reducing end spanning subsites +1 to +8 and 4 sugar units toward the non-reducing end spanning subsites -4 to -1, and enzymatic cleavage taking place between subsites -1 and +1. In addition, 1H NMR analysis shows that this enzyme hydrolyzes the glycosidic bond with inversion of anomeric configuration, in contrast to other known agarases that are retaining. Altogether, AgaB is structurally and functionally different from other known agarases and appears to represent a new family of glycoside hydrolase.  相似文献

An agar-degrading archaeon Halococcus sp. 197A was isolated from a solar salt sample. The agarase was purified by hydrophobic column chromatography using a column of TOYOPEARL Phenyl-650 M. The molecular mass of the purified enzyme, designated as Aga-HC, was ~55 kDa on both SDS-PAGE and gel-filtration chromatography. Aga-HC released degradation products in the order of neoagarohexose, neoagarotetraose and small quantity of neoagarobiose, indicating that Aga-HC was a β-type agarase. Aga-HC showed a salt requirement for both stability and activity, being active from 0.3 M NaCl, with maximal activity at 3.5 M NaCl. KCl supported similar activities as NaCl up to 3.5 M, and LiCl up to 2.5 M. These monovalent salts could not be substituted by 3.5 M divalent cations, CaCl2 or MgCl2. The optimal pH was 6.0. Aga-HC was thermophilic, with optimum temperature of 70 °C. Aga-HC retained approximately 90 % of the initial activity after incubation for 1 hour at 65–80 °C, and retained 50 % activity after 1 hour at 95 °C. In the presence of additional 10 mM CaCl2, approximately 17 % remaining activity was detected after 30 min at 100 °C. This is the first report on agarase purified from Archaea.  相似文献

The specificity of an agarase from a Cytophaga species   总被引:5,自引:1,他引:4  
1. The extracellular agarase from a Cytophaga species was shown to have no action on neoagarobiose, neoagarotetraose or their analogues containing 6-O-methyl-d-galactose residues. 2. The action of the enzyme on neoagaro-octaose suggests that scission of the central beta-d-galactosidic linkage, to form two molecules of tetrasaccharide, is the preferred mode of action; however, both exterior d-galactosidic linkages in the octasaccharide and both in neoagarohexaose are hydrolysed at a somewhat lower rate. 3. Sulphated oligosaccharides produced by prolonged enzyme action on porphyran have a minimum degree of polymerization of about 8-10units. 4. For such sulphated oligosaccharides to be further hydrolysed by enzyme action, it is suggested that an unmodified neoagarotetraose residue must be present in the oligosaccharide. 6. A new method for determining the degree of polymerization of these large oligosaccharides is described.  相似文献

Production and characterization of the agarase ofCytophaga flevensis   总被引:1,自引:1,他引:0  
Cytophaga flevensis produced an inducible agarase which was extracellular under most conditions tested. The effect of cultural conditions on the production of enzyme was studied in batch and continuous culture. In batch culture, production was optimal whenCytophaga flevensis was incubated at 20C in a mineral medium with agar as the sole carbon source and ammonium nitrate as the nitrogen source at an initial pH of 6.6–7.0. The enzyme appeared to be subject to catabolite repression, since its synthesis was repressed when glucose was added to the medium in batch culture. Furthermore, in continuous culture, enzyme production decreased with increasing growth rate. Extracellular agarase was partially purified and the enzyme preparation obtained was very stable. The enzyme has a molecular weight of 26000 daltons. It is a β-agarase which is highly specific for polysaccharides containing neoagarobiose units. The final products of hydrolysis of agarose by the endo-acting enzyme were neoagarotetraose and neoagarobiose. Optimal conditions for its activity were pH 6.3 and 30C. When agarose was used as a substrate, an apparent temperature optimum of 35C was found, due to gelling of the substrate during the assay procedure.  相似文献

Streptomyces coelicolor can degrade agar, the main cell wall component of red macroalgae, for growth. To constitute a crucial carbon source for bacterial growth, the alternating α-(1,3) and β-(1,4) linkages between the 3,6-anhydro-L-galactoses and D-galactoses of agar must be hydrolyzed by α/β-agarases. In S. coelicolor, DagA was confirmed to be an endo-type β-agarase that degrades agar into neoagarotetraose and neoagarohexaose. Genomic sequencing data of S. coelicolor revealed that Sco3487, annotated as a putative hydrolase, has high similarity to the glycoside hydrolase (GH) GH50 β-agarases. Sco3487 encodes a primary translation product (88.5 kDa) of 798 amino acids, including a 45-amino-acid signal peptide. The sco3487 gene was cloned and expressed under the control of the ermE promoter in Streptomyces lividans TK24. β-Agarase activity was detected in transformant culture broth using the artificial chromogenic substrate p-nitrophenyl-β-D-galactopyranoside. Mature Sco3487 (83.9 kDa) was purified 52-fold with a yield of 66% from the culture broth. The optimum pH and temperature for Sco3487 activity were 7.0 and 40°C, respectively. The K(m) and V(max) for agarose were 4.87 mg/ml (4 × 10(-5) M) and 10.75 U/mg, respectively. Sco3487 did not require metal ions for its activity, but severe inhibition by Mn(2+) and Cu(2+) was observed. Thin-layer chromatography analysis, matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization-time of flight mass spectrometry, and Fourier transform-nuclear magnetic resonance spectrometry of the Sco3487 hydrolysis products revealed that Sco3487 is both an exo- and endo-type β-agarase that degrades agarose, neoagarotetraose, and neoagarohexaose into neoagarobiose.  相似文献

An agar-degrading bacterium, strain SY12, was identified as the genus Janthinobacterium, which is a member of the class Betaproteobacteria. A β-agarase gene agaY was cloned from SY12, and it is the first reported agarase from the Betaproteobacteria. AgaY consisted of 1,338 bp encoding 445 amino acid residues, and it was assigned to GH16 family. AgaY has an N-terminal secretary leader peptide preceding a GH16 catalytic domain and a CBM13 carbohydrate binding module. The recombinant agarase AgaY overexpressed in Escherichia coli displayed a molecular mass of 50.2 kDa and the optimum temperature and pH for the activity of the enzyme was 40°C and pH 7.0, respectively. It degraded agarose to give neoagarotetraose and neoagarobiose as the main products. Interestingly, in contrast to other agarases of GH16, the enzymatic activity of AgaY is Na+ and Ca2+ independent.  相似文献

The beta-agarase-d gene (agaD) from a marine bacterium, Vibrio sp. strain PO-303, was cloned and expressed in Escherichia coli. The gene consists of 1,362 bp and encodes a protein of 453 amino acids with a predicted molecular weight of 50,824. The full length of agarase-d consists of a signal peptide, a glycoside hydrolase family 16 catalytic module (CM), and a carbohydrate binding module (CBM). The full length of agarase-d without the signal peptide (rAgaDDeltafull), the catalytic module (rAgaDCM), or the CBM (rAgaDCBM) was expressed in E. coli as recombinant proteins. rAgaDCM exhibited higher enzyme activity (63.6 units/mg) than rAgaDDeltafull (1.20 units/mg) against agarose. rAgaDCM hydrolyzed agar and porphyran to several oligosaccharides and acted on neoagarohexaose to produce neoagarotetraose and neoagarobiose, but did not act on neoagarotetraose. rAgaDCBM bound to agarose.  相似文献
