Alkaline protease from a new obligate alkalophilic isolate of Bacillus sphaericus

An obligate alkalophilic Bacillus sphaericus strain, isolated from alkaline soils in the Himalaya, produced an extracellular protease which was optimally active at 50–55 °C and pH 10.5. The enzyme was stable in presence of 500 mg chlorine l^–1 and as a detergent additive. Its stability in presence of laundry detergents was comparable to that of commercial proteases. The gelatin layer in 25 g of used X-ray films was efficiently hydrolyzed within 12 min at 50 °C, pH 11.0 and 25 U protease/ml.     

Feasibility study for decomposition of gelatin layers on X-ray films by thermostable alkaline protease from alkaliphilic Bacillus sp.

Enzymatic decomposition of gelatin layers on X-ray films and repeated utilization of enzyme for potential industrialization were investigated using thermostable alkaline protease from the alkaliphilic Bacillus sp. B21-2. The decomposition of gelatin layers at 50 °C with the mutant enzyme (Ala187 was replaced by Pro) was higher than those of the wild-type and other mutant enzymes. In the repeated experiment for every 60 min (20 U ml^–1, 50 °C), the mutant enzyme could be satisfactorily used five times while three times for the wild-type enzyme.     

Optimization of Penicillium aurantiogriseum protease immobilization on magnetic nanoparticles for antioxidant peptides’ obtainment

This work reports an optimization of protease from Penicillium aurantiogriseum immobilization on polyaniline-coated magnetic nanoparticles for antioxidant peptides’ obtainment derived from bovine casein. Immobilization process was optimized using a full two-level factorial design (2⁴) followed by a response surface methodology. Using the derivative, casein was hydrolyzed uncovering its peptides that were sequenced and had antioxidant properties tested through (2,2′-Azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) diammonium salt) (ABTS) radical scavenging and hydrogen peroxide scavenging assays. Optimal conditions for immobilization were 2?hr of immobilization, offered protein amount of 200?µg/mL, immobilization pH of 6.3 and 7.3?hr of activation. Derivative keeps over 74% of its original activity after reused five times. Free and immobilized enzyme casein hydrolysates presented similar peptide mass fingerprints, and prevalent peptides could be sequenced. Hydrolysates presented more than 2.5× higher ROS scavenging activity than nonhydrolyzed casein, which validates the immobilized protease capacity to develop casein-derived natural ingredients with potential for functional foods.

The antihypertensive effect of peptides: a novel alternative to drugs?

Many types of bioactive peptides that inhibit angiotensin I, angiotensin I converting enzyme (ACE) and Ang II type 1 receptor (AT1) in the cardiovascular system contribute to the prevention and treatment of hypertension. These inhibitory peptides are derived from many food proteins or artificial synthetic products. Further research examining the bioavailability of ACE inhibitory peptides will lead to the development of more effective ACE inhibitory peptides and foods. Our research also demonstrates that ACE inhibitory peptide LAP may lower blood pressure with no adverse effects.

Comparative analysis of the sequences and structures of HIV-1 and HIV-2 proteases

The different isolates available for HIV-1 and HIV-2 were compared for the region of the protease (PR) sequence, and the variations in amino acids were analyzed with respect to the crystal structure of HIV-1 PR with inhibitor. Based on the extensive homology (39 identical out of 99 residues), models were built of the HIV-2 PR complexed with two different aspartic protease inhibitors, acetylpepstatin and a renin inhibitor, H-261. Comparison of the HIV-1 PR crystal structure and the HIV-2 PR model structure and the analysis of the changes found in different isolates showed that correlated substitutions occur in the hydrophobic interior of the molecule and at surface residues involved in ionic or hydrogen bond interactions. The substrate binding residues of HIV-1 and HIV-2 PRs show conservative substitutions of four residues. The difference in affinity of HIV-1 and HIV-2 PRs for the two inhibitors appears to be due in part to the change of Val 32 in HIV-1 PR to Ile in HIV-2 PR.

Molecular cloning and expression of genes of Kunitz-type C protease inhibitors from potato

We cloned the products of polymerase chain reaction of the genome DNA of potato (Solanum tuberosum L., Istrinskii cultivar) and isolated 35 clones, which represent copies of eight genes encoding Kunitz type C proteases. Their nucleotide sequences were established. All the genes were found for the first time and designated as PKPI-C1-PKPI-C8. The gene PKPI-C2, which we had earlier presumed to encode the subtilisin PKSI inhibitor, was cloned into pQE30 vector and then expressed in Escherichia coli cells. The recombinant protein PKPI-C2 underwent spontaneous folding and transformation into a soluble state. We purified it to homogeneity by affinity chromatography. The PKPI-C2 protein efficiently inhibited subtilisin Carlsberg activity and did not act on trypsin, chymotrypsin, or papain.     

Application of protease from Nocardiopsis sp. as a laundry detergent additive

The application of protease as a laundry detergent additive from a newly isolated Nocardiopsis sp., isolated from a soil sample collected in Northeast Brazil is reported. The optimal pH and temperature for protease activity were pH 10.5 and 50 °C, respectively. The enzyme was stable in a long-term incubation, showed 73.5% of initial activity at pH 10.5 and 61.7% at pH 12.0 for 120 min. Approximately 60% of initial activity remained after 120 min at 50 °C or after 30 min at 80 °C. Almost 87% of enzyme activity was retained in the presence of 10% (v/v) of peroxide at 40 °C, after 1 h. The protease also was stable in the presence of oxidants and surfactants such as SDS, saponin, Tween 20 and Tween 80 after 30 min. In the presence of Omo^®, the enzyme retained 64% of its activity at 40 °C for 1 h. An increase in the proteolytic activity (6–17%) was observed with K⁺, Na⁺, and Mg⁺⁺ ions. At pH 8.0, the protease hydrolysed casein maximally (50 U/mg).
