Some α-amylases besides catalyzing the hydrolysis of α-1,4 glycosidic bonds in starch are also capable of carrying out some transglycosylation activity. The importance of aromatic
residues near the catalytic site in determining the ratio of these two competing activities has been remarked in the past.
In the present work we investigated the role of residue 260 in the product profile of the α-amylase AmyA from Thermotoga maritima. This phenylalanine residue, two positions after the glutamic acid/base catalyst was substituted by both tryptophan and glycine
residues, showing opposite behaviors. The tryptophan mutant displayed a very similar product profile pattern to that of the
wild-type enzyme; while the mutant Phe260Gly showed a higher transglycosylation/hydrolysis ratio. When the Phe260Trp mutation
was constructed in the context of His222Gln, a mutant we have already reported with an increased transglycosylation/hydrolysis
ratio and a higher alcoholysis activity, the resultant enzyme showed an apparent higher hydrolysis/transglycosylation ratio
and a change to shorter products pattern than the single mutant enzyme, still maintaining the increased alcoholytic activity
provided by the His222Gln mutation. The mutant Phe260Gly, on the other hand showed by itself a higher alcoholytic activity,
similar to that of the His222Gln mutant. 相似文献

To efficiently produce xylobiose from xylan, high-level expression of an α-l-arabinofuranosidase gene from Thermotoga maritima was carried out in Escherichia coli. A 1.5-kb DNA fragment, coding for an α-l-arabinofuranosidase of T. maritima, was inserted into plasmid pET-20b without the pelB signal sequence leader, and produced pET-20b-araA1 with 8 nt spacing between ATG and Shine–Dalgarno sequence. A maximum activity of 12 U mg−1 was obtained from cellular extract of E. coli BL21-CodonPlus (DE3)-RIL harboring pET-20b-araA1. The over-expressed α-l-arabinofuranosidase was purified 13-fold with a 94% yield from the cellular extract of E. coli by a simple heat treatment. Production of xylooligosaccharides from corncob xylan by endoxylanase and α-l-arabinofuranosidase was examined by TLC and HPLC: xylobiose was the major product from xylan at 90 °C and its proportion
in the xylan hydrolyzates increased with the reaction time. Hydrolysis with in the xylanase absence of α-l-arabinofuranosidase gave only half this yield.

Polyamines such as spermine can have interaction with protein. The aim of the present study was to investigate how spermine could influence the structure, thermal stability, and the activity of α-chymotrypsin. Kinetics, thermodynamics, molecular dynamics (MD), and docking simulations studies were conducted to investigate the effect of spermine on the activity and structure of α-Chymotrypsin (α-Chy) in 50 mM Tris–HCl buffer, with the pH 8, using different spectroscopic techniques as well as molecular docking and MD simulations. The stability and activity of α-Chy were increased in the presence of spermine. The results of the kinetic study showed that the activity of spermine was increased. Enzyme activation was accompanied by changes on the α-Chy conformation. Fluorescence intensity changes showed dynamic quenching during spermine binding. The fluorescence quenching of the α-Chy suggested the more polar location of Trp residues. Near-UV and Far-UV circular dichroism studies also demonstrated the transfer of Trp, Phe, and Tyr residues to a more flexible environment. The increase in the absorption of α-Chy in the presence of spermine was as a result of the formation of spermine–α-Chy complex. Molecular docking results revealed the presence of one binding site with a negative value for the Gibbs free energy of the binding of spermine to α-Chy. Docking study also revealed that van der Waals interactions and hydrogen bonds played a major role in stabilizing the complex. 相似文献

α-L-Arabinofuranosidase from the hyperthermophilic bacterium Thermotoga maritima (Tm-AFase) is an extremely thermophilic enzyme belonging to glycoside hydrolase family 51. It can catalyze the transglycosylation of a novel glycosyl donor, 4,6-dimethoxy-1,3,5-triazin-2-yl (DMT)-β-D-xylopyranoside. In this study we determined the crystal structures of Tm-AFase in substrate-free and complex forms with arabinose and xylose at 1.8-2.3 ? resolution to determine the architecture of the substrate binding pocket. Subsite -1 of Tm-AFase is similar to that of α-L-arabinofuranosidase from Geobacillus stearothermophilus, but the substrate binding pocket of Tm-AFase is narrower and more hydrophobic. Possible substrate binding modes were investigated by automated docking analysis. 相似文献

A thermostable beta-xylosidase from a hyperthermophilic bacterium, Thermotoga maritima, was over-expressed in Escherichia coli using the T7 polymerase expression system. The expressed beta-xylosidase was purified in two steps, heat treatment and immobilized metal affinity chromatography, and gave a single band on SDS-PAGE. The maximum activity on p-nitrophenyl beta-D-xylopyranoside was at 90 degrees C and pH 6.1. The purified enzyme had a half-life of over 22-min at 95 degrees C, and retained over 57% of its activity after holding a pH ranging from 5.4 to 8.5 for 1 h at 80 degrees C. Among all tested substrates, the purified enzyme had specific activities of 275, 50 and 29 U mg(-1) on pNPX, pNPAF, and pNPG, respectively. The apparent Michaelis constant of the beta-xylosidase was 0.13 mM for p NPX with a V (max) of 280 U mg(-1). When the purified beta-xylosidase was added to xylanase, corncob xylan was hydrolized completely to xylose. 相似文献

Intact viable 13762 mammary-adenocarcinoma ascites cells hydrolyse added ATP. The localization of hydrolysis product and inactivation by the slowly penetrating chemical reagent diazotized sulphanilic acid indicate that this ATPase is at the external surface of the cell. A number of features differentiate this enzyme from mitochondrial, myosin and cation-transport ATPases. It is stimulated by either Ca2+ or Mg2+ and has little or no activity in their absence. It is insensitive to ouabain, oligomycin and azide. It is the major ATPase activity found in homogenates of gently disrupted 13762 cels. The ATPase activity is inhibited at high substrate concentrations and shows an apparent stimulation by concanavalin A in isolated membranes, but not in intact cells. The stimulation by concanavalin A results predominantly from a release from substrate inhibition. 相似文献

Two kinds of oligosaccharides, N-acetylraffinosamine (RafNAc) and N-acetylplanteosamine (PlaNAc), were synthesized from N-acetylsucrosamine and melibiose using the transgalactosylation activity of Aspergillus niger α-galactosidase. RafNAc and PlaNAc are novel trisaccharides in which d-glucopyranose residues in raffinose (Raf) and planteose are replaced with N-acetyl-d-glucosamine. These trisaccharides were more stable in acidic solution than Raf. RafNAc was hydrolyzed more rapidly than Raf by α-galactosidase of green coffee bean. In contrast, RafNAc was not hydrolyzed by Saccharomyces cerevisiae invertase, although Raf was hydrolyzed well by this enzyme. These results indicate that the physicochemical properties and steric structure of RafNAc differ considerably from those of Raf. 相似文献

TmGUSI, a gene identical to that encoding a thermostable β-glucuronidase in the hyperthermophilic anaerobe Thermotoga maritima, has been synthesized using a PCR-based two-step DNA synthesis and codon optimization for plants, and expressed in both Escherichia coli and Arabidopsis thaliana. TmGUSI expressed in transformed E. coli cells exhibited maximum hydrolytic activity at 65?°C and pH 6.5 and retained more than 80% activity after incubation at 85?°C for 30?min. TmGUSI activity in transgenic A. thaliana plants containing TmGUSI was also stable over the temperature range 65-80?°C. Our data suggest that β-glucuronidase from T. maritima can serve as a useful thermostable marker in higher plants. 相似文献

Summary The cellular location and sites of synthesis of -fetoprotein (AFP) in the foetal, neonatal and maternal rabbit, were studied by the fluorescent antibody technique and by culturing tissuesin vitro with labelled amino acids. AFP was found to be localised intracellularly within liver hepatocytes and yolk sac endoderm of the foetus, and within the maternal uterine epithelium. Analysis of extracts of the cultured tissues for incorporation of radioactivity into serum proteins separated by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis or analysed by autoradiography of immuno-precipitation lines, confirmed that the foetal liver and yolk sac splanchnopleur were the principal sites of primary synthesis of AFP. Localisation of AFP in the uterine epithelium and other foetal organs was consistent with a secondary derivation from the uterine fluid or from the blood circulation. These findings are discussed in relationship to findings in man and other mammals.Supported by an award from the Medical Research Council to whom grateful acknowledgement is made. 相似文献

A -glucosidase of the hyperthermophilic bacterium Thermotoga maritima has been purified from a recombinant Escherichia coli clone expressing the corresponding gene. The enzyme was found to be a dimer with an apparent molecular mass of approximately 95 kDa as determined by size exclusion chromatography. It was composed of two apparently identical subunits of about 47 kDa (determined by sodium dodecyl sulphate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis). The enzyme had a bbroadsubstrate specificity and attacked -glucoside, -galactoside, -fucoside, and, to a very small extent, also -xyloside substrates. -Glycosidic bonds were not hydrolysed. Kinetic measurement of the hydrolysis of o-nitrophenyl--d-glucopyranoside (oNPGlc) and o-nitrophenyl--d-galactopyranoside (oNPGal) in the concentration ranges 0.05–20 mm and 0.1–10 mm, respectively, at 75°C resulted in non-linear Lineweaver-Burk and Eadie-Hofstee 3lots whereas cellobiose and lactose did not induce this type of effect. Lactose caused substrate inhibition above 350 mm. The enzyme was optimally active at about pH 6.1. The T. maritima -glucosidase represents the most thermostable -glucosidase described to date. In 50 mm sodium phosphate buffer, pH 6.2, at an enzyme concentration of 50 g/ml, the pure enzyme without additives retained more than 60% of its initial activity after a 6-h incubation at 95°C.

Summary The localization and sites of synthesis of -fetoprotein in chick embryos throughout development have been investigated using the combined techniques of immunofluorescence microscopy and tissue culture in the presence of radiolabelled amino acids, followed by immunoautoradiographic analysis.Alpha-fetoprotein is present in a range of embryonic tissues and especially concentrated in the yolk sac, liver and connective tissue. Analysis of culture fluids revealed that the yolk sac is the major site of -fetoprotein synthesis with smaller, but significant quantities being produced by the liver.These results are discussed in relation to mammalian -fetoprotein, and the merits of the chick embryo for studies on the biological function of AFP are considered.Supported by an award from the Science Research Council, to whom grateful acknowledgement is made 相似文献

Critical to the use of solution NMR to describe the structure and flexibility of membrane proteins is the thorough understanding of the degree of perturbation induced by the detergent or other membrane mimetic. To develop a deeper understanding of the interaction between membrane proteins and micelles or bicelles, we will investigate the differences in structure and flexibility of a model membrane protein TM0026 from Thermotoga maritima using solution NMR. A comparison of the structural differences between TM0026 solubilized in different detergent combinations will provide important insight into the degree of modulation of membrane proteins by detergent physical properties. Here we report the nearly complete backbone and Cβ resonance assignments of the two transmembrane helical model protein TM0026. These assignments are the first step to using TM0026 to elucidate the interaction between membrane proteins and membrane mimetics. 相似文献

Enzymes for use in the sugar industry are preferred to be thermotolerant. In this study, a synthetic codon-optimized gene encoding a highly thermostable β-fructosidase (BfrA, EC 3.2.1.26) from the bacterium Thermotoga maritima was expressed in the yeast Pichia pastoris. The gradual increase of the transgene dosage from one to four copies under the control of the constitutive glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase promoter had an additive effect on BfrA yield without causing cell toxicity. Maximal values of cell biomass (115 g/l, dry weight) and overall invertase activity (241 U/ml) were reached at 72 h in fed-batch fermentations using cane sugar as the main carbon source for growth. Secretion driven by the Saccharomyces cerevisiae α-factor signal peptide resulted in periplasmic retention (44 %) and extracellular release (56 %) of BfrA. The presence of N-linked oligosaccharides did not influence the optimal activity, thermal stability, kinetic properties, substrate specificity, and exo-type action mode of the yeast-secreted BfrA in comparison to the native unglycosylated enzyme. Complete inversion of cane sugar at initial concentration of 60 % (w/v) was achieved by periplasmic BfrA in undisrupted cells reacting at pH 5.5 and 70 °C, with average productivity of 4.4 g of substrate hydrolyzed per grams of biomass (wet weight) per hour. The high yield of fully active glycosylated BfrA here attained by recombinant P. pastoris in a low-cost fermentation process appears to be attractive for the large-scale production of this thermostable enzyme useful for the manufacture of inverted sugar syrup. 相似文献

A putative endo-β-1,4-D-galactanase gene of Thermotoga maritima was cloned and overexpressed in Escherichia coli. The recombinant enzyme hydrolyzed pectic galactans and produced D-galactose, β-1,4-D-galactobiose, β-1,4-D-galactotriose, and β-1,4-D-galactotetraose. The enzyme displayed optimum activity at 90 °C and pH 7.0. It was slowly inactivated above pH 8.0 and below pH 5.0 and stable at temperatures up to 80 °C. 相似文献

A putative -L-arabinofuranosidase (AFase) gene belonging to family 51 of glycosyl hydrolases of a hyperthermophilic bacterium Thermotoga maritima MSB8 was cloned, sequenced, and overexpressed in Escherichia coli. The recombinant protein (Tm-AFase) was purified to apparent homogeneity by heat treatment (80°C, 30 min), followed by hydrophobic interaction, anion-exchange, and gel permeation column chromatography. Tm-AFase had a molecular mass of 55,284 Da on matrix assisted laser desorption ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry and ~332 kDa on gel permeation column chromatography. Therefore, Tm-AFase comprised six identical subunits as in the case of homologous AFase from Geobacillus stearothermophilus. Regarding substrate specificity, Tm-AFase was active with p-nitrophenyl -L-arabinofuranoside but not with p-nitrophenyl -L-arabinopyranoside. Regarding polysaccharides, Tm-AFase hydrolyzed arabinan and debranched arabinan but not arabinoxylan, arabinogalactan, and carboxymethyl cellulose. Tm-AFase was extremely thermophilic, displaying an optimal reaction temperature of 90°C in a 10 min assay. When Tm-AFase was heated at 90°C, no loss of activity was observed for at least 24 h. At 100°C, the activity dropped to ~50% in 20 min; thereafter, inactivation occurred very slowly exhibiting a half-life of ~2.7 h, characterizing the enzyme to be the most thermophilic AFase reported thus far. 相似文献

Acid -l-fucosidase (EC 3.2.1.51) was obtained from human liver and purified to homogeneity. The enzyme consists of four subunits; each of these has a molecular mass of 50 kDa and bears oneN-linked carbohydrate chain. The structures of these chains were studied at the glycopeptide level by methylation analysis and 500-MHz1H-NMR spectroscopy. Oligomannoside-type chains andN-acetyllactosamine-type chains are present in an approximate ratio of 31. While the oligomannoside-type chains show some heterogeneity in size (Man5–8GlcNAc2), theN-acetyllactosaminetype chains are exclusively bi-(2–6)-sialyl, bi-antennary in their structure.These observations on the carbohydrate moieties of -l-fucosidase substantiate our hypothesis [Overdijket al. (1986) Glycoconjugate J 3:339–50] with respect to the relationship between the oligosaccharide structure of lysosomal enzymes and their residual intracellular activity in I-cell disease. For the series of enzymes examined so far, namely, -N-acetylhexosaminidase, -l-fucosidase and -galactosidase, the relative amount ofN-acetyllactosamine-type carbohydrate increases, while the residual intracellular activity in I-cell disease tissue decreases in this order. The system which is responsible for preferentially retaining hydrolases with (non-phosphorylated) oligomannoside-type chains both in I-cells and in normal cells has yet to be identified. 相似文献

Summary -galactosidases of Thermus aquaticus YT-1, exhibiting a galactosyl transferase activity, were immobilized using different techniques. Entrapment in agarose or gellan gum beads was unsuitable for enzyme immobilization due to enzyme leakage. A technique that efficiently immobilized the enzymes was developed using glutaraldehyde co-crosslinking of -galactosidases with bovine serum albumin, followed by entrapment in agarose beads. 相似文献
