L-amino acid oxidase (L-AAO) from snake venom Crotalus adamanteus was successfully tested as a catalyst in supercritical CO2 (SC-CO2). The enzyme activity was measured before and after exposure to supercritical conditions (40°C, 110 bar). It was found that L-AAO activity slightly increased after SC-CO2 exposure by up to 15%. L-AAO was more stable in supercritical CO2 than in phosphate buffer under atmospheric pressure, as well as in the enzyme membrane reactor (EMR) experiment. 3,4-Dihydroxyphenyl-L-alanine (L-DOPA) oxidation was performed in a batch reactor made of stainless steel that could withstand the pressures of SC-CO2, in which L-amino acid oxidase from C. adamanteus was able to catalyze the reaction of oxidative deamination of L-DOPA in SC-CO2. For the comparison L-DOPA oxidation was performed in the EMR at 40°C and pressure of 2.5 bar. Productivity expressed as mmol-s of converted L-DOPA after 3?h per change of enzyme activity after 3?h was the highest in SC-CO2 (1.474?mmol?U?1), where catalase was present, and the lowest in the EMR (0.457?mmol?U?1).  相似文献

Unlabeled D- and L-alanine were racemized in deuterium oxide with an alanine racemase of Bacillus stearothermophilus at saturated concentration of substrate, and various p2H and temperature. Samples of the solution were taken at intervals, and all alanine isomers in the samples were transformed into a mixture of diastereomeric derivatives of methyl N-(–)-camphanylalaninate. Their ratio was measured on a GC-Mass, and the relative rate was calculated at the initial stage of the reaction. There was little difference in the decrease rate of the optical rotation between the enantiomers. Internal proton-transfer to the antipode was almost zero for either substrate. The α-hydrogen was abstracted 1.2–2.3 times faster from D-alanine than from L-alanine. D-Alanine gave an almost even mixture of deuterium labeled D- and L-alanine, while L-alanine gave a mixture of labeled D- and L-alanine at a ratio of 3:1. These results suggest the racemase builds two different bases in the active site. The base for D-alanine may be closer to the enzyme surface, and that for L-alanine inside.  相似文献

Microbial transaminase which catalyzes the reaction between 3,4-disubstituted phenyl pyruvate and certain amino acids to produce 3,4-disubstituted phenyl-L-alanine was investigated. Wide distribution of this enzyme among the various kinds of microorganisms was confirmed.

3,4-Dihydroxyphenyl-L-alanine (L-Dopa) or 3,4-dimethoxyphenyl-L-alanine was isolated from corresponding keto acids using three strains of selected microorganisms.  相似文献

The α-methylserine aldolase gene from Variovorax paradoxus strains AJ110406, NBRC15149, and NBRC15150 was cloned and expressed in Escherichia coli. Formaldehyde release activity from α-methyl-L-serine was detected in the cell-free extract of E.coli expressing the gene from three strains. The recombinant enzyme from V. paradoxus NBRC15150 was purified. The V max and K m of the enzyme for the formaldehyde release reaction from α-methyl-L-serine were 1.89 μmol min?1 mg?1 and 1.2 mM respectively. The enzyme was also capable of catalyzing the synthesis of α-methyl-L-serine and α-ethyl-L-serine from L-alanine and L-2-aminobutyric acid respectively, accompanied by hydroxymethyl transfer from formaldehyde. The purified enzyme also catalyzed alanine racemization. It contained 1 mole of pyridoxal 5′-phosphate per mol of the enzyme subunit, and exhibited a specific spectral peak at 429 nm. With L-alanine and L-2-aminobutyric acid as substrates, the specific peak, assumed to be a result of the formation of a quinonoid intermediate, increased at 498 nm and 500 nm respectively.  相似文献

Seven optical active 2-benzylamino alcohols were synthesized by reduction of N-benzoyl derivatives of L-alanine, L-valine, L-leucine, L-phenylalanine, L-aspartic acid, L-glutamic acid and L-lysine and applied for the resolution of (±)-trans-chrysanthemic acid. d-trans-Chrys-anthemic acid was obtained by resolution via the salts of 2-benzylamino alcohols derived from L-valine and L-leucine, while (?)-trans-chrysanthemic acid was prepared through the salts of the amino alcohols derived from L-alanine and L-phenylalanine.  相似文献

Culture conditions for the preparation of cells containing high tyrosine phenol lyase activity were studied with Erwinia herbicola ATCC 21434. Adding pyridoxine to the medium enhanced enzyme formation, suggesting that it was utilized as a precursor of the coenzyme, pyridoxal phosphate. Glycerol plus succinic acid; amino acids, such as, DL-methionine, DL-alanine and glycine; and metallic ion, ferrous ion promoted enzyme formation as well as cell growth. Adding L-tyrosine, as inducer, to the culture medium was essential for enzyme formation. However, when large amounts of L-tyrosine were added, the enzyme formation was repressed by the phenol liberated from L-tyrosine. In fact, formation of the enzyme was enhanced by removing phenol during cultivation. L(D)-Phenylalanine or phenylpyruvic acid had a synergistic effect on the induction of enzyme by L-tyrosine.

Cells with high enzyme activity were prepared by growing cells at 28°C for 28 hr in a medium containing 0.2% L-tyrosine, 0.2% KH2PO4, 0.1% MgSO47H2O, 0.001% FeSO7H2O, 0.01% pyridoxine-HC1, 0.6% glycerol, 0.5% succinic acid, 0.1% DL-methionine, 0.2% DL-alanine, 0.05% glycine, 0.1% L-phenylalanine and 120 ml/liter hydrolyzed soybean protein in tap water with the pH controlled at 7.5 throughout cultivation.  相似文献

A conjugated enzyme system, alanine dehydrogenase (AIDH) for stereospecific reduction of pyruvate to l-alanine and glucose dehydrogenase (GDH) for regeneration of NADH, were coimmobilized in a nanofiltration membrane bioreactor (NFMBR) for the continuous production of l-alanine from pyruvate with NADH regeneration. Since pyruvate was proved to be unstable at neutral pH, it was kept under acidic conditions and supplied to NFMBR separately from the other substrates. As 0.2 m pyruvate in HCl solution (pH 4), 10 mm NAD, 0.2 m glucose, and 0.2 m NH4Cl in 0.5 m Tris buffer (pH 8) were continuously supplied to NFMBR with immobilized AIDH (100 U/ml) and GDH (140 U/ml) at the retention time of 80 min, the maximum conversion, reactor productivity, and NAD regeneration number were 100%, 320 g/liter/d, and 20,000, respectively. To avoid the effect of pyruvate instability, a consecutive reaction system, lactate dehydrogenase (l-LDH) and AIDH, was also used. In this system, the l-LDH provides pyruvate, the substrate for the AIDH reaction, from l-lactate regenerating NADH simultaneously, so the pyruvate could be consumed as soon as it was produced. As 0.2 m l-lactate, 10 mm NAD, 0.2 m NH4Cl in 0.5 m Tris buffer (pH 8) were continuously supplied to NFMBR with immobilized l-LDH (100 U/ml) and AIDH (100 U/ml) at the retention time of 160 min, the maximum conversion, reactor productivity, and the NAD regeneration number were 100%, 160 g/Iiter/d, and 20,000, respectively.  相似文献

Depsipeptides are peptide-like polymers consisting of amino acids and hydroxy acids, and are expected to be new functional materials for drug-delivery systems and polymer science. In our previous study, D-alanyl-D-lactate, a type of depsipeptide, was enzymatically synthesized using D-alanine-D-alanine ligase from Thermotoga maritima ATCC 43589 (TmDdl) by Y207F substitution. Thereafter, in this study, further mutagenesis was introduced, based on structural comparison between TmDdl and a well-characterized D-alanine-D-alanine ligase from Escherichia coli. The S137A/Y207F mutant showed higher D-alanyl-D-lactate and lower D-alanyl-D-alanine synthesizing activity than the Y207F mutant. This suggests that substitution at the S137 residue contributes to product selectivity. Saturated mutagenesis on S137 revealed that the S137G/Y207F mutant showed the highest D-alanyl-D-lactate synthesizing activity. Moreover, the mutant showed broad substrate specificity toward D-amino acid and recognized D-lactate and D,L-isoserine as substrates. On the basis of these characteristics, various depsipeptides can be produced using S137G/Y207F-replaced TmDdl.  相似文献

Studies were conducted on the degradation of N-lauroyl-L-valine by type cultured bacteria. Many strains could utilize sodium N-lauroyl-L-valinate as carbon and nitrogen sources for their growth. Metabolism of N-lauroyl-L-valine was investigated in detail using Ps. aeruginosa AJ2116. Laurie acid was identified by gas chromatography suggesting cleavage of N-acyl linkage in N-lauroyl-L-valine.

Laurie acid might be metabolized to capric acid (C10) and caprylic acid (C8) becuase the accumulated substances gave nearly identical peaks with those of authentic fatty acids on gas chromatograms. The experiment using N-lauroyl-L-valine (14C) indicated that 14CO2 was produced as a final product. Valine was not detected because it might be metabolized very rapidly immediately after its release.

It was supposed that the enzymes or enzyme systems degrading N-lauroyl-L-valine might be constitutive from the experiment using two kinds of cells grown in the medium containing N-lauroyl-L-valine or nutrient broth.  相似文献

《Autophagy》2013,9(11):1557-1576
L-arginine (L-Arg) deficiency results in decreased T-cell proliferation and impaired T-cell function. Here we have found that L-Arg depletion inhibited expression of different membrane antigens, including CD247 (CD3ζ), and led to an ER stress response, as well as cell cycle arrest at G0/G1 in both human Jurkat and peripheral blood mitogen-activated T cells, without undergoing apoptosis. By genetic and biochemical approaches, we found that L-Arg depletion also induced autophagy. Deprivation of L-Arg induced EIF2S1 (eIF2α), MAPK8 (JNK), BCL2 (Bcl-2) phosphorylation, and displacement of BECN1 (Beclin 1) binding to BCL2, leading to autophagosome formation. Silencing of ERN1 (IRE1α) prevented the induction of autophagy as well as MAPK8 activation, BCL2 phosphorylation and XBP1 splicing, whereas led T lymphocytes to apoptosis under L-Arg starvation, suggesting that the ERN1-MAPK8 pathway plays a major role in the activation of autophagy following L-Arg depletion. Autophagy was required for survival of T lymphocytes in the absence of L-Arg, and resulted in a reversible process. Replenishment of L-Arg made T lymphocytes to regain the normal cell cycle profile and proliferate, whereas autophagy was inhibited. Inhibition of autophagy by ERN1, BECN1 and ATG7 silencing, or by pharmacological inhibitors, promoted cell death of T lymphocytes incubated in the absence of L-Arg. Our data indicate for the first time that depletion of L-Arg in T lymphocytes leads to a reversible response that preserves T lymphocytes through ER stress and autophagy, while remaining arrested at G0/G1. Our data also show that the L-Arg depletion-induced ER stress response could lead to apoptosis when autophagy is blocked.  相似文献

A simple procedure is described to obtain D- and L-allothreonine (D- and L-aThr). A mixture of N-acetyl-D-allothreonine (Ac-D-aThr) and N-acetyl-L-threonine (Ac-L-Thr) was converted to a mixture of their ammonium salts and then treated with ethanol to precipitate ammonium N-acetyl-L-threoninate (Ac-L-Thr·NH3) as the less-soluble diastereoisomeric salt. After separating Ac-L-Thr·NH3 by filtration, Ac-D-aThr obtained from the filtrate was hydrolyzed in hydrochloric acid to give D-aThr of 80% de, recrystallized from water to give D-aThr of >99% de. L-aThr was obtained from a mixture of the ammonium salts of Ac-L-aThr and Ac-D-Thr in a similar manner.  相似文献

7-Keto-8-aminopelargonic acid synthetase (KAPA synthetase) which catalyzes the formation of KAPA from pimelyl CoA and l-alanine, and is involved in biotin biosynthesis, was partially purified from a cell-free extract of Bacillus sphaericus by a procedure involving ammonium sulfate fraction ation, protamine treatment, and DEAE-cellulose column chromatography. The reaction product was bioautographically confirmed to be KAPA. Some properties of the enzyme were also investigated. Among the amino acids, only l-alanine was active as a substrate, condensing with pimelyl CoA, The reaction required pyridoxal phosphate but the other vitamin B6 compounds were inert. Typical inhibitors of pyridoxal phosphate enzymes showed marked inhibition to the reaction. Various amino acids such as l-cysteine, glycine, d-alanine, l-serine, l-histidine, and d-histidine were also found to be inhibitory.  相似文献

Abstract

A commercial immobilized d-glucose isomerase from Streptomyces murines (Sweetzyme) was used to produce l-rhamnulose from l-rhamnose in a packed-bed reactor. The optimal conditions for l-rhamnulose production from l-rhamnose were determined as pH 8.0, 60?°C, 300?g L?1 l-rhamnose as a substrate, and 0.6?h?1 dilution rate. The half-life of the immobilized enzyme at 60?°C was 809?h. Under the optimal conditions, the immobilized enzyme produced an average of 135?g L?1 l-rhamnulose from 300?g L?1 l-rhamnose after 16 days at pH 8.0, 60?°C, and 0.6?h?1 dilution rate, with a productivity of 81?g/L/h and a conversion yield of 45% in a packed-bed reactor.  相似文献

The substrate specificity and the mode of action of the protease from Streptomyces cellulosae were investigated, using many kinds of peptides and proteins as substrates. The protease hydrolyzed peptides consisting of hydrophobic amino acids such as L-Phe-L-Leu-NH2, L-Pro-L-Phe-NH2, l-Leu-L-Met, L-Leu-L-Leu, Gly-L-Ile, L-Phe-L-Phe, L-Pro-L-Leu-Gly-NH2, etc. The protease hydrolyzed zein best among the proteins tested, but weakly hydrolyzed gelatin, myoglobin, bovine serum albumin, γ-globulin, and collagen. The protease mainly hydrolyzed Ser12-Leu13, Leu13-Tyr14, and Tyr14-Gln15 bonds in the oxidized A-chain of insulin and at least the Leu15-Tyr16 bond in the oxidized B-chain of insulin.  相似文献

An L-isoleucine-overproducing recombinant strain of E. coli, TVD5, was also found to overproduce L-valine. The L-isoleucine productivity of TVD5 was markedly decreased by addition of L-lysine to the medium. Introduction of a gene encoding feedback-resistant aspartokinase III increased L-isoleucine productivity and decreased L-valine by-production. The resulting strain accumulated 12 g/l L-isoleucine from 40 g/l glucose, and suppression of L-isoleucine productivity by L-lysine was relieved.  相似文献

The L-aspartate:L-alanine antiporter of Tetragenococcus halophilus (AspT) possesses an arginine residue (R76) within the GxxxG motif in the central part of transmembrane domain 3 (TM3)—a residue that has been estimated to transport function. In this study, we carried out amino acid substitutions of R76 and used proteoliposome reconstitution for analyzing the transport function of each substitution. Both l-aspartate and l-alanine transport assays showed that R76K has higher activity than the AspT-WT (R76), whereas R76D and R76E have lower activity than the AspT-WT. These results suggest that R76 is involved in AspT substrate transport.  相似文献

In the last few decades, enzymatic production of 3,4-dihydroxyphenyl-L-alanine (L-dopa) using tyrosine phenol-lyase (Tpl) has been industrialized. This method has an intrinsic problem of tyrosine contamination because Tpl is synthesized under tyrosine-induced conditions. Herein, we constructed a hyper-L-dopa-producing strain by exploiting a mutant TyrR, an activator of tpl. The highest productivity was obtained for the strain grown under non-induced conditions. It was 30-fold higher than that obtained for tyrosine-induced wild-type cells.  相似文献

L-Arabinose isomerase (L-arabinose ketol-isomerase, EC 5.3.1.4) was demonstrated from the L-arabinose-grown cells of Streptomyces sp. which was isolated from sea water. The enzyme was purified by MnCl2 treatment, fractionation by polyethylene glycol and by column chromatographies on Sephadex G-150 and DEAE-cellulose. The purified enzyme was specific only for L-arabinose and the Michaelis constant for L-arabinose was 40 mM at pH 7.5. Manganese or cobalt ions were effective for the enzyme activity after dialysis against EDTA. The enzyme activity was inhibited competitively by L-arabitoI, ribitol and xylitol, of which inhibition constants were 1.1, 1.0, and 15 mM, respectively.  相似文献

Six strains of bacteria belonging to Vibrio and Pseudomonas were selected as good producers of L-DOPA from L-tyrosine out of various bacteria. The condition for the formation of L-DOPA by Vibrio tyrosinaticus ATCC 19378 was examined and the following results were obtained. (1) Intermittent addition of L-tyrosine in small portions gave higher titer of L-DOPA than single addition of L-tyrosine. (2) Higher amount of L-DOPA was produced in stationary phase of growth than in logarithmic phase. (3) Addition of antioxidant, chelating agent or reductant such as L-ascorbic acid, araboascorbic acid, hydrazine, citric acid and 5-ketofructose increased the amount of L-DOPA formed. (4) L-Tyrosine derivatives such as N-acetyl-L-tyrosine amide, N-acetyl-L-tyrosine, L-tyrosine amide, L-tyrosine methyl ester and L-tyrosine benzyl ester were converted to the corresponding L-DOPA derivatives.

In the selected condition about 4 mg/ml of L-DOPA was produced from 4.3 mg/ml of L-tyrosine.  相似文献

Peptidoglycan portion was isolated from the hydrolysate of Streptomyces roseochromogenes IAM 53 cell walls after hydrolysis with egg white lysozyme. Further hydrolysis by the Flavobacterium lytic enzyme gave rise to a disaccharide and two types of peptides. The disaccharide was β-1, 4-N-acetylglucosaminyl-N-acetylmuramic acid. The main type of peptide was l-alanyl-d-isoglutaminyl-(glycyl-) ll-diaminopimelyl-d-alanine, and d-alanine was missing in the minor type of peptide. Edman degradation and partial hydrolysis of the peptide oligomer revealed the major type of peptidoglycan which was characterized by the presence of ll-diaminopimelic acid and cross-linkage of single glycine. Other species of Streptomyces seemed to have the same type of peptidoglycan as that of S. roseochromogenes.  相似文献
