A strain of Fusarium moniliforme isolated from a tropical mangrove ecosystem near Mumbai, India and deposited in the National Collection of Industrial Microorganisms (NCIM) as F. moniliforme NCIM 1276. The organism produced a single extracellular polygalacturonase (PG I) [EC 3.2.1.15] at pH 5 and a single pectate lyase (PL) [EC 4.2.2.2] at pH 8 in liquid medium containing 1% citrus pectin. Growth on semi-solid medium containing wheat bran and orange pulp resulted in a three-fold increase in PG production and a two-fold increase in PL production in comparison with that in liquid medium. The increased production of PG on semi-solid media, as compared to production in liquid media was investigated. The increased production of PG was partly due to the expression of a second polygalacturonase (PG II) isoenzyme by the fungus which was biochemically different from the one produced in liquid medium. The second PG II was a 30.6kDa enzyme, had an alkaline pI of 8.6, the Km was 0.166mg ml(-1), Vmax 13.33 micromol min(-1) mg(-1) and the kcat was 403 min(-1). It had a specific activity of 18.66U mg(-1). The differences between the PGs (PG I and PG II) suggest that the two enzymes are the products of different genes. The fungus also produced the same two PGs when it infected Lycopersicon esculentum (tomato). Only one PL was produced irrespective of growth conditions. 相似文献

Extracellular polygalacturonase (PG) and two pectate lyase isoenzymes (PLI and PLII) produced by a 48 h culture of Erwinia carotovora subsp. atroseptica in pectate-based medium were purified 2027, 2036 and 2374-fold respectively to homogeneity with corresponding 59%, 61% and 32% recovery. This was achieved first by ion exchange chromatography on a S-Sepharose fast flow column with 20 mmol/1 Tris at pH 8.0 followed by elution of bound proteins with a 1 mol/1 NaCl gradient which separated PG from PL. The two enzymes were then further purified to homogeneity (assessed by SDS-PAGE) by selective adsorption chromatography on a hydroxyapatite column equilibrated with distilled water; PG was eluted with a 3 mol/1 KCl gradient and PLI with a 3 mol/1 KCl gradient followed by a 1.2 mol/1 PO4 buffer pH 6.5 gradient to elute PLII. The Mr of the three enzymes determined by SDS-PAGE was 39 kDa and the pI values for PG, PLI and PII were 10.3, 10.3 and 10.0 respectively as determined by isoelectric focusing (IEF)-gel electrophoresis followed by activity staining. 相似文献

Polygalacturonase enzyme production from bacterial isolated from raw milk and green and black olives
Forty microbial strains isolated from raw milk samples and black and green olives were grown in MP5 (mineral pectin 5) medium containing 0.5% lemon pectin. All strains synthesized an extracellular polygalacturonase. Rhodotorula sp. ONRh9 (0.44 U x mL(-1)) and Leuconostoc sp. LLn1 (0.16 U x mL(-1)), which had a more active polygalacturonase in MP5 medium, were studied in MAPG5 medium containing polygalacturonic acid. Highest biomass and polygalacturonase production by these two strains were observed for polygalacturonic acid concentrations of 10 g x L(-1) (Rhodotorula sp. ONRh9) and 5 g x L(-1) (Leuconostoc sp. LLn1) and for initial pH values of 6 (Rhodotorula sp. ONRh9) and 5.5 (Leuconostoc sp. LLn1). The two strains grown in fermenters in MAPG5 medium generated the following results: with controlled initial pH, Rhodotorula sp. produced maximum biomass (DO) and polygalacturonase (PG) after 20 h (DO, 3.86; PG, 0.24 U x mL(-1)) of growth, and this level was sustained until the end of the culture; Leuconostoc sp. LLn1 synthesized more cells and polygalacturonase between 4 h (DO, 1.80; PG, 0.17 U x mL(-1)) and 24 h (DO, 3.90; PG, 0.27 U x mL(-1)) of culture. With uncontrolled initial pH, the cultures produced maximum biomass and polygalacturonase after 20 h (DO, 3.30; PG, 0.26 U x mL(-1)) for Rhodotorula sp. ONRh9 and 10 h (DO, 2.84; PG, 0.17 U x mL(-1)) for Leuconostoc sp. LLn1. 相似文献

Lactobacillus plantarum produced extracellular polygalacturonase in a medium containing 1.5% low methyl-pectin (w/v) and 0.5% glucose (w/v) as inducers. The enzyme was purified (approximately 70-fold) by ammonium sulphate fractionation, Sephadex G-100 gel filtration and DEAE-cellulose ion exchange chromatography. Two peaks (PG I and PG II) of enzymic activity were obtained from the DEAE-cellulose column. The molecular mass of PG I was similar to that of PG II (32 000 Da). The K m values of PG I and PG II for sodium polypectate were calculated to be 1.63 mg/ml and 1.78 mg/ml respectively. Their isoelectric points were about pH 5.5. The pH optimum was 4.5, while the optimum temperature was 35°C for both PG I and PG II. The two purified enzymes had similar endo modes of action on polygalacturonic acid, as determined by comparison of viscosity reduction and reducing group release. 相似文献

The halotolerant alkaliphilic methanotroph Methylomicrobium buryatense 5B is capable of growth at high methanol concentrations (up to 1.75 M). At optimal values of pH and salinity (pH 9.5 and 0.75% NaCl), the maximum growth rate on 0.25 M methanol (0.2 h-1) was twice as high as on methane (0.1 h-1). The maximum growth rate increased with increasing medium salinity and was lower at neutral than at alkaline pH. The growth of the bacterium on methanol was accompanied by a reduction in the degree of development of intracytoplasmic membranes, the appearance of glycogen granules in cells, and the accumulation of formaldehyde, formate, and an extracellular glycoprotein at concentrations of 1.2 mM, 8 mM, and 2.63 g/l, respectively. The glycoprotein was found to contain 23% protein and 77% carbohydrates, the latter being dominated by glucose, mannose, and aminosugars. The major amino acids were glutamate, aspartate, glycine, valine, and isoleucine. The glycoprotein content rose to 5 g/l when the concentration of potassium nitrate in the medium was augmented tenfold. The activities of sucrose-6-phosphate synthase, glycogen synthase, and NADH dehydrogenase in methanol-grown cells were higher than in methane-grown cells. The data obtained suggest that the high methanol tolerance of M. buryatense 5B is due to the utilization of formaldehyde for the synthesis of sucrose, glycogen, and the glycoprotein and to the oxidation of excess reducing equivalents through the respiratory chain. 相似文献

Role of anionic lipid in bacterial membranes 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The major phospholipids of Bacillus stearothermophilus are phosphatidylethanolamine (PE), phosphatidylglycerol (PG), and cardiolipin (CL). Under the growth conditions used in this study the concentration of anionic lipid (PG + CL) was determined by the pH of the culture medium. Cells grown in a complex medium at pH 5.8, 7.0, and 8.0 contained 17, 29 and 36 nmol of anionic (PG + CL) lipid/mg cell (dry weight). The concentration of the zwitterionic lipid phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) was 17-20 nmol/mg cell (dry weight) under all conditions. Analysis of isolated membrane preparations suggested that the amount of anionic lipid per unit area of membrane increased as the pH of the growth medium was increased. Membranes from cells grown at pH 5.8 and 8.0 contained 130 and 320 nmol anionic lipid/mg membrane protein, respectively. Phosphatidylethanolamine appeared to be localized on the inner membrane surface in cells grown under all conditions. Increasing the ionic strength of the culture medium by the addition of NaCl or KCl had little effect on growth at pH 5.8 but inhibited growth at pH 7 and 8. It was concluded that anionic phospholipid plays an important physiological role in maintaining an acidic pH at the outer membrane surface. 相似文献

Aims: To obtain recombinant strains of Penicillium griseoroseum that produce high levels of pectin lyase (PL) and polygalacturonase (PG) simultaneously. Methods and Results: A strain with high production of PL was transformed with the plasmid pAN52pgg2, containing the gene encoding PG of P. griseoroseum, under control of the gpd promoter gene from Aspergillus nidulans. Southern blot analysis demonstrated that all strain had at least one copy of pAN52pgg2 integrated into the genome. The recombinant strain P. griseoroseum T20 produced levels of PL and PG that were 266‐ and 27‐fold greater, respectively, than the wild‐type strain. Furthermore, the extracellular protein profile of recombinant T20 showed two protein bands of c. 36 and 38 kDa, associated with PL and PG, respectively. Conclusions: This recombinant strain T20 produces PL and PG using carbon sources of low costs, and an enzyme preparation that is free of cellulolytic and proteolytic activities. Significance and Impact of the Study: PL and PG play an important role in the degradation of pectin. Owing to their use in the juice and wines industries, there is a growing interest in the inexpensive production of these enzymes. This work describes an efficient system of protein expression and secretion using the fungus P. griseoroseum. 相似文献

在含有儿茶素的培养液中棉枯萎病菌(Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. vasinfectum)的多聚半乳糖醛酸酶(PG)和果胶裂解酶(PL)活性明显降低。儿茶素可明显抑制初步纯化的PG和PL活性以及它们对棉苗组织的浸软作用。对棉苗组织中儿茶素含量的测定结果表明:抗病品种棉苗组织中儿茶素含量较高;氟乐灵处理可诱发棉苗产生对枯萎病的诱导抗性,同时也提高棉苗组织中的儿茶素的含量;枯萎病菌侵染后棉苗组织中儿茶素含量明显升高,以抗病品种棉苗和氟乐灵诱发处理棉苗组织中儿茶素含量的增加更为明显。棉苗组织提取液中的酚类物质可抑制PG和PL的活性,且证明这种抑制作用主要是由儿茶素引起。提取液对PG和PL活性的抑制作用与棉苗组织中儿茶素的含量呈直接的正相关关系。因此,作者认为棉苗组织中的儿茶素可能通过对病菌PG和PL等胞壁降解酶的抑制而与棉花对枯萎病的抗病性及氟乐灵诱发的诱导抗性有关。 相似文献

31P-NMR and X-ray diffraction techniques are used to study the comparative ability of myelin basic protein (MBP) vs. other basic proteins to convert hexagonal (HII) phases to stable lamellar (L alpha) structures. Pure dioleoylphosphatidylethanolamine (DOPE) at pH 9 and 7, and mixtures of DOPE/phosphatidylserine (PS) (95:5 and 80:20% w/w) at pH 7 were employed for this investigation. The polymorphic behavior of the lipid suspensions was evaluated in the presence and absence of several basic proteins (MBP, calf thymus histone, lysozyme, melittin) and the cationic polypeptide, polylysine (PL). Each of the proteins and PL was capable of binding the pure DOPE HII phase at pH 9 but with varying morphological consequences, i.e., lamellar stabilization (MBP, histone, PL), formation of new protein-DOPE HII phases (lysozyme) or lipid disordering/vesiculation (melittin). Reduction to pH 7 resulted in the dissociation of protein from DOPE - with the exception of melittin - and the reformation of a pure lipid HII phase. Additions of PS to DOPE at pH 7 facilitated protein binding, but among the proteins examined, only MBP was capable of converting the lipid suspension into a stable multilamellar form. Differences in the lipid morphology produced by each protein are discussed in terms of protein physicochemical characteristics. In addition, a possible relationship between MBP-lipid interactions and the stability of myelin sheath lipid multilayers is inferred from the significant bilayer-stabilizing capacity of MBP. 相似文献

PhyA gene products of Aspergillus ficuum (AF) and Peniophora lycii (PL) as expressed in industrial strains of Aspergillus niger and Aspergillus oryzae, respectively, were purified to homogeneity and then characterized for both physical and biochemical properties. The PL phytase is 26 amino acid residues shorter than the AF phytase. Dynamic light scattering studies indicate that the active AF phytase is a monomer while the PL phytase is a dimer. While both of the phytases retained four identical glycosylatable Asn residues, unique glycosylation sites, six for PL and seven for AF phytase, were observed. Global alignment of both the phytases has shown 38% sequence homology between the two proteins. At 58 degrees C and pH 5.0, the PL phytase gave a specific activity of 22,000 nKat/mg as opposed to about 3000 nKat/mg for AF phytase. However, the AF phytase is more thermostable than its counterpart PL phytase at 65 degrees C. Also, AF phytase is more stable at pH 7.5 than the PL phytase. The two phytases differed in K(m) for phytate, K(i) for myo-inositol hexasulfate (MIHS), and pH optima profile. Despite similarities in the active site sequences, the two phytases show remarkable differences in turnover number, pH optima profile, stability at higher temperature, and alkaline pH. These biochemical differences indicate that phytases from ascomycete and basidiomycete fungi may have evolved to degrade phytate in different environments. 相似文献

Escherichia coli grown at pH 5·0 became acid-tolerant (acid-habituated) but, in addition, neutralized medium filtrates from cultures of E. coli grown to log-phase or stationary-phase at pH 5·0 (pH 5·0 filtrates) induced acid tolerance when added to log-phase E. coli growing at pH 7·0. In contrast, filtrates from pH 7·0-grown cultures were ineffective. The pH 5·0 filtrates were inactivated by heating in a boiling water-bath but there was less activity loss at 75 °C. Protease also inactivated such filtrates, which suggested that a heat-resistant protein (or proteins) in the filtrates was essential for the induction of acid tolerance. Filtrates from cells grown at pH 5·0 plus phosphate or adenosine 3':5'-cyclic monophosphate (cAMP) were much less effective in inducing acid tolerance, while the conversion of pH 7·0-grown log-phase cells to acid tolerance by pH 5·0 filtrates was inhibited by cAMP and bicarbonate. It seems likely that the acid tolerance response (acid habituation) involved the functioning of the extracellular protein(s) as protease reduces tolerance induction if added during acid habituation. Most inducible responses are believed to involve the functioning of only intracellular reactions and components ; the present results suggest that this is not the case for acid habituation, as an extracellular protein (or proteins) is needed for induction. 相似文献

The type III secretion system (TTSS) is a specialized supramolecular injectisome composed of 25 or more proteins which form basal and extracellular domains and share gross architectural similarities with bacterial flagella. The extracellular component of the "needle complex" is primarily composed of a single monomeric subunit organized in a helical array surrounding a hollow pore and protrudes from the bacterial membrane. It is through this surface appendage that virulence factors are translocated to the host cell cytoplasm and thereby subvert normal host cell functions. We present here a comprehensive biophysical analysis of the dynamic conformational behavior of the truncated monomeric needle subunit proteins MxiH(Delta5) (Shigella flexneri), BsaL(Delta5) (Burkholderia pseudomallei), and PrgI(Delta5) (Salmonella typhimurium) as well as their thermal stability over a pH range of 3-8. Circular dichroism spectroscopy indicates the secondary structure is largely alpha helical in all three proteins, and surprisingly thermally labile with transition midpoints in the range of 35-50 degrees C over the pH range of 3-8. Additionally, at the concentrations examined, the very broad thermal transitions were >90% reversible. Second derivative UV absorbance spectroscopy data indicates some disruption of the protein's tertiary structure occurs at temperatures in the range of 29-46 degrees C. The difference in the pH of maximal stability for each of the proteins and the variation for each protein with respect to both secondary and tertiary structural elements is striking. It appears, that at physiological temperatures all three proteins experience intermediate non-native molten globule like states in which they display significant secondary structure in the absence of extensive tertiary interactions. Because of the size difference between the inner pore of the needle and the fully folded needle proteins, it seems clear that the needle subunits must be secreted in a partially or completely unfolded state to reach the distal tip of the needle for assembly. It is proposed that the formation of these intermediate states in the physiological temperature range may play a role in passage through the pore and needle assembly. 相似文献

Control of ammonia distribution ratio across the liver cell membrane and of ureogenesis by extracellular pH 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The mechanisms involved in ammonia uptake by rat liver cells and the effects of changes in extracellular pH have been investigated in vivo and in vitro. When NH4Cl solutions were infused in the hepatic portal vein, ammonia uptake by the liver was practically quantitative up to about 1 mM in afferent blood. Ammonia transfer into hepatocytes was extremely rapid: for 2 mM ammonia in external medium, the intracellular concentration reached 5 mM within 10 s. Comparatively, [14C]methylamine influx was slower and the cell concentrations did not reach a steady-state level, probably in relation with diffusion into the acidic lysosomal compartment. Intracellular accumulation of ammonia was dependent on the delta pH across the plasma membrane: the distribution ratio (internal/external) was about 1 for an external pH of 6.8 and about 5 at pH 8. Urea synthesis was maximal at physiological pH and markedly declined at pH 7.05. This inhibition was not affected by manipulation of bicarbonate concentrations in the medium, down to 10 mM. Additional inhibition of ureogenesis by 100 microM acetazolamide was also observed, particularly at low concentrations of bicarbonate in the medium. Inhibition of ureogenesis when extracellular pH is decreased could be ascribed to a lower availability of the NH3 form. Assuming that NH3 readily equilibrates between the various compartments, the availability of free ammonia for carbamoyl-phosphate synthesis could be tightly dependent on extracellular pH. 相似文献

Single-site chromosomal Tn5 insertions affect the export of pectolytic and cellulolytic enzymes in Erwinia chrysanthemi EC16 总被引:9,自引:0,他引:9
Exponentially growing cells of Erwinia chrysanthemi EC16 usually export about 98% of their pectate lyase (PL) and protease, about 40% of their polygalacturonase (PG), and about 60% of their cellulase (endoglucanase or carboxymethyl cellulase; CL). By using the R plasmid, pJB4JI (pPH1JI::Mu::Tn5), three independent Tn5 insertion mutants were obtained that exported normal levels of protease but 10% or less of PL, PG, and CL. Physical analysis revealed that single copies of Tn5 had inserted into the E. chrysanthemi chromosome, producing a similar export-defective (Out-) phenotype. The synthesis of PL, PG, and CL was not affected by the Tn5 insertions. These enzymes were released from the mutants on spheroplast formation, indicating that they were located in the periplasmic space. Tn5 insertions caused the loss of a 35-kilodalton periplasmic protein, but did not alter the outer membrane protein composition. The findings are discussed with respect to the current knowledge on protein export in gram-negative bacteria. 相似文献
