Calcium alginate entrapment of the yeast Rhodosporidium toruloides for the kinetic resolution of 1,2-epoxyoctane 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Resting cells of the yeast Rhodosporidium toruloides (UOFS Y-0471) were immobilised in calcium alginate beads for the enantioselective kinetic resolution of racemic-1,2-epoxyoctane. The initial activity exhibited by immobilised cells was almost 50% lower than that of the free counterpart but was extremely stable when compared to the free cells. The concentration of the immobilised biomass had no effect on apparent enzyme activity but did lead to a decrease in single cell activity. An increase in both the alginate and CaCl2 concentrations used for bead preparation led to a decrease in enzyme stability. An increase in the alginate concentration led to an increase in bead diameter. The stoichiometric equation for cross-linking of alginate was only obeyed when CaCl2 concentrations higher than 0.4 M were utilised for bead preparation. 相似文献

Purification of the membrane-associated epoxide hydrolase from the yeast Rhodosporidium toruloides CBS 0349 to electrophoretic homogeneity was achieved in a single chromatographic step employing the affinity ligand adsorbent Mimetic Green. More than 68% of the total epoxide hydrolase activity present in the whole cells was recovered from the membrane fraction. The enzyme was purified 26-fold with respect to the solubilized membrane proteins and was obtained in a 90% yield. The purified epoxide hydrolase has an apparent monomeric molecular weight of 54 kDa, and a pI of 7.3. The enzyme was optimally active at 30–40 °C, and pH 7.3–8.5. The enzyme is highly glycosylated with a carbohydrate content >42%. The specific activity of the purified enzyme for (±)-1,2-epoxyoctane is 172 mol min–1 mg protein–1. The amino acid composition of the protein was determined. This is the first report of a yeast epoxide hydrolase purified to homogeneity in milligram amounts. 相似文献

Enantioselective hydrolysis for the production of chiral styrene oxide was investigated using the epoxide hydrolase activity
of a newly isolatedRhodosporidium kratochvilovae SYU-08. The effects of reaction prameters—buffer type, pH, temperature, initial substrate concentrations, phenyl-1,2-ethanediol
concentrations on hydrolysis rate, and enantioselectivity—were analyzed. Optically active (S)-styrene oxide with an enantiomeric excess higher than 99 % was obtained from its racemate with a yield of 38 % (theoretically
50% maximum yield) from an initial concentration of 80 mM. 相似文献

Rhodotorucine A, a lipopeptide mating pheromone, is secreted from mating type A cells of Rhodosporidium toruloides and induces sexual differentiation of the opposite mating type a cells. Genome of A-type cells contains three homologous genes (RHA1, RHA2, and RHA3) encoding rhodotorucine A. Genomic Southern blot analysis using RHA1 DNA as a probe showed that RHA1 strongly hybridize with A-type genomic DNA but weakly with a-type, suggesting that the sequences of RHA genes were dissimilar in the opposite a-type genome. The range of dissimilar regions in a-type genome was searched using RHA-flanking DNA segments as probes. The result suggests that a-type genome lacks sequences coding for rhodotorucine A and its 5 upstream but contains its 3 non-coding sequences. The absence of mating pheromone genes in the opposite mating type genome suggests that the expression of mating-type-specific genes in R. toruloides is not controlled trans-criptionally, as shown in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. 相似文献

Three methods for the immobilization of the epoxide hydrolase from the fungus Aspergillus niger were tested. The highest immobilization yield (90%) and retention of activity (65%) were obtained by adsorption onto DEAE-cellulose compared to adsorption onto hydrophobic porous polypropylene and covalent linkage using Eupergit resin. The enzymatic properties of the immobilized enzyme were similar to those of the free enzyme with respect to the effect of temperature and pH on both activity and stability as well as the effect of solvent (DMF) on activity. The kinetic parameters were affected leading to lower K

d-Amino acid oxidase from Rhodosporidium toruloides was immobilized onto glutaraldehyde-activated magnetic nanoparticles. Approximately four enzyme molecules were attached to
one magnetic nanoparticle when the weight ratio of the enzyme to the support was 0.12. After immobilization, the T
m was increased from 45°C of the free form to 55°C. In the presence of 20 mM H2O2, the immobilized form retained 93% of its activity after 5 h while the free form was completely inactivated after 3.5 h. 相似文献

Cr(VI) tolerance was studied in four strains of Rhodosporidium toruloides and compared with that of a fifth strain, DBVPG 6662, isolated from metallurgical wastes and known to be Cr(VI) resistant. Tolerance was studied in relation to different species of sulfur (sulfates, thiosulfates, methionine, cysteine) at different concentrations. Djenkolic acid, a poor source of sulfur and an activator of sulfate transport, was also considered. In synthetic medium all strains except the Cr(VI)-resistant one started to be inhibited by 10 g ml– (0.2 mm) Cr(VI) as K2Cr2O7. DBVPG 6662 was inhibited by 100 g ml– (2.0 mm) Cr(VI). In Yeast Nitrogen Base without amino acids (minimal medium), supplemented with varying concentrations of chromate, all Cr(VI)-sensitive strains accumulated concentrations of total chromium (from 0.8 to 1.0 g mg– cell dry wt) after 18 h of incubation at 28 °C. In minimal medium supplemented with 10 g ml– Cr(VI), the addition of sulfate did not significantly improve the yeast growth. Cysteine at m levels increased tolerance up to 10 g ml–, whereas methionine only reduced the Cr(VI) toxicity in the strain DBVPG 6739. Additions of djenkolic acid resulted in increased Cr(VI) sensitivity in all strains. The best inorganic sulfur species for conferring high tolerance was thiosulfate at concentrations up to 1 mm. In all cases increased Cr(VI) tolerance was due to a significantly reduced uptake in the oxyanion by the cells and not to the chemical reduction of Cr(VI) to Cr(III) by sulfur compounds. 相似文献

Epoxide hydrolase-encoding cDNA sequences were isolated from the basidiomycetous yeast species Rhodosporidium toruloides CBS 349, Rhodosporidium toruloides CBS 14 and Rhodotorula araucariae CBS 6031 in order to evaluate the molecular data and potential application of this type of enzymes. The deduced amino acid sequences were similar to those of the known epoxide hydrolases from Rhodotorula glutinis CBS 8761, Xanthophyllomyces dendrorhous CBS 6938 and Aspergillus niger LCP 521, which all correspond to the group of the microsomal epoxide hydrolases. The epoxide hydrolase encoding cDNAs of the Rhodosporidium and Rhodotorula species were expressed in Escherichia coli. The recombinant strains were able to hydrolyze trans-1-phenyl-1,2-epoxypropane with high enantioselectivity. 相似文献

Epoxides are often highly hydrophobic substrates and the presence of an organic co-solvent within an aqueous bioreactor is in such cases indicated. The effect of 40 water-miscible and -immiscible organic solvents on epoxide hydrolase activity in whole-cells of the yeast Rhodotorula sp. UOFS Y-0448 was investigated. No formal correlation between solvent biocompatibility and physicochemical properties was deductible, although the introduction of hydroxyl groups increased biocompatibility. 1-Pentanol, 2-methylcyclohexanol and 1-octanol were the most biocompatible resulting in relatively low activity losses when used at up to 20% (v/v). 相似文献

The epoxide hydrolase from Rhodotorula glutinis was isolated and initially characterized. The enzyme was membrane associated and could be solubilized by Triton X-100. Purification yielded an enzyme with sp. act. of 66 mol 1,2-epoxyhexane hydrolyzed min–1 mg–1 protein. The enzyme was not completely purified to homogeneity but, nevertheless, a major protein was isolated by SDS-PAGE for subsequential amino acid determination of peptide fragments. From sequence alignments to related enzymes, a high homology towards the active site sequences of other microsomal epoxide hydrolases was found. Molecular mass determinations indicated that the native enzyme exists as a homodimer, with a subunit molecular mass of about 45 kDa. Based upon these, this epoxide hydrolase is structurally related to other microsomal epoxide hydrolases. 相似文献

Abstract Epoxide hydrolases were found to be constitutively expressed in dematiaceous fungi coincident with secondary metabolite pigment production in stationary or idiophase. Washed-cell preparations of two fungi, Ulodadium atrum CMC 3280 and Zopfiella karachiensis CMC 3284, exhibited affinity for 2,2-dialkylated oxiranes, for which contrasting enantioselectivities were observed, but not for aromatic styrene oxide or alicyclic cyclohexene oxide type substrates. Lyophilised preparations of soluble epoxide hydrolase activities proved to be effective catalysts for the mild hydrolysis of aliphatic epoxides. 相似文献

Simultaneous depletion of phenylalanine and tyrosine by phenylalanine ammonia lyase is described in a mutual competitive inhibition model. The enzymes obtained fromSporidiobolus pararoseus andRhodosporidium toruloides were charaterized in terms of stability, optimal reaction parameters and kinetic behaviour. Both enzymes followed Michaelis-Menten kinetics with respect to the two amino acids. However, the enzyme fromRhodosporidium toruloides was inhibited by high tyrosine concentrations. 相似文献

Effect of light on carotenoid and lipid production in the oleaginous yeast Rhodosporidium toruloides

ABSTRACT The oleaginous yeast Rhodosporodium toruloides is receiving widespread attention as an alternative energy source for biofuels due to its unicellular nature, high growth rate and because it can be fermented on a large-scale. In this study, R. toruloides was cultured under both light and dark conditions in order to understand the light response involved in lipid and carotenoid biosynthesis. Our results from phenotype and gene expression analysis showed that R. toruloides responded to light by producing darker pigmentation with an associated increase in carotenoid production. Whilst there was no observable difference in lipid production, slight changes in the fatty acid composition were recorded. Furthermore, a two-step response was found in three genes (GGPSI, CAR1, and CAR2) under light conditions and the expression of the gene encoding the photoreceptor CRY1 was similarly affected. 相似文献

Soluble epoxide hydrolase (sEH) contributes to cell growth, but the contribution of sEH to embryonic development is not well understood. In this study, Xenopus sEH cDNA was isolated from embryos of Xenopus laevis. The Xenopus sEH was expressed in Escherichia coli and was purified. The epoxide hydrolase and phosphatase activities of purified sEH were investigated. The Xenopus sEH did not show phosphatase activity toward 4-methylumbelliferyl phosphate or several lysophosphatidic acids although it had EH activity. The amino acid sequence of Xenopus sEH was compared with that reported previously. We found amino acid substitutions of the 29th Thr to Asn and the 146th Arg to His and prepared a sEH mutant (N29T/H146R), designed as mutant 1. Neither wild-type sEH nor mutant 1 had phosphatase activity. Additional substitution of the 11th Gly with Asp was found by comparison with human sEH which has phosphatase activity, but the Xenopus sEH mutant G11D prepared as mutant 2 did not have phosphatase activity. The epoxide hydrolase activity of sEH seemed to be similar to that of human sEH, while Xenopus sEH did not have phosphatase activity toward several substrates that human sEH metabolizes. 相似文献

Cisplatin is a highly effective chemotherapeutic agent against many tumors; however, it is also a potent nephrotoxicant. Given
that there have been no significant advances in our ability to clinically manage acute renal failure since the advent of dialysis,
the development of novel strategies to ablate nephrotoxicity would represent a significant development. In this study, we
investigated the ability of an inhibitor of soluble epoxide hydrolase (sEH), n-butyl ester of 12-(3-adamantan-1-yl-ureiido)-dodecanoic acid (nbAUDA), to attenuate cisplatin-induced nephrotoxicity. nbAUDA
is quickly converted to AUDA and results in maintenance of high AUDA levels in vivo. Subcutaneous administration of 40 mg/kg
of nbAUDA to C3H mice every 24 h resulted in elevated blood levels of AUDA; this protocol was also associated with attenuation
of nephrotoxicity induced by cisplatin (intraperitoneal injection) as assessed by BUN levels and histological evaluation of
kidneys. This is the first report of the use of sEH inhibitors to protect against acute nephrotoxicity and suggests a therapeutic
potential of these compounds. 相似文献

Epoxide hydrolase (EC 3.3.2.3) purified from rat liver microsomes has been immobilized by covalent linking to dextran activated by imidazolyl carbamate groups, under mild conditions. Kappm values of free and dextran bound epoxide hydrolase toward benzo(a)pyrene-4,5-oxide were 0.5 and 0.35 μM respectively, while Vappmax was lowered from 300 to 120 nmol min?1mg?1protein. The activity lost upon coupling could not be restored by digestion of the support by dextranase (1,6-α-d-glucan 6-glucanohydrolase, EC 3.2.1.11) treatment. This fact, along with the similarity of the activation energy values for both native and bound epoxide hydrolase, indicated that steric hindrance effects due to the polymer support played only a minor role in this loss of activity. Evidences of changes in the conformation of epoxide hydrolase were obtained by a comparative study of u.v. circular dichroism and tryptophan fluorescence emission spectra of the native and dextran bound enzymes. On the other hand, the enzyme conjugate showed greater resistance than the free enzyme to thermal inactivation. 相似文献

以产油酵母圆红冬胞酵母(Rhodosporidium toruloides)作为研究对象,系统地研究了氮、磷、硫限制对其油脂积累的影响,并在3L生物反应器上考察了R.toruloides在C/P摩尔比为1 133.3时初始葡萄糖浓度对油脂生产的影响。结果表明:氮、磷、硫中任意一种营养元素受限,均能促使R.toruloides在胞内积累高于自身干重60%的油脂;通过改变培养基的组成,可以调节油脂中脂肪酸的构成,使油脂中饱和脂肪酸比例高于70%或不饱和脂肪酸比例高于60%。就油脂生产强度及转化效率而言,磷限制优于氮限制或硫限制。当C/P摩尔比相同时,初始葡萄糖浓度越低越有利于油脂生产。对采用不同原料生产微生物油脂的技术有一定指导意义。 相似文献

Screening of epoxide hydrolase producing microorganisms for biotransformation of deoxynivalenol 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Deoxynivalenol (DON) transformation products from selected time course experiments were analyzed by thin-layer chromatography.
With the strainAlternaria alternata f. sp.lycopersici AS27-3, one major metabolite of DON in ethyl acetate was observed. This unidentified metabolite was more polar than DON and
has a Rf value of 0.71. Derivatization indicated that this metabolite was probably an unidentified trichothecene. Screening of 29
other microbial isolates (bacteria, yeast, filamentous fungi) for DON transformation did not result in any active organism.
