A preparation of frog liver CMP-acylneuraminate synthase (2-10-fold enriched over the homogenate) obtained from DEAE-Sephadex A-50 chromatography of a 105,000g liver supernatant was bound to Sepharose 4B by the CNBr method. The enzyme retained 80-100% activity on binding and showed similar properties to the purified soluble enzyme from the same source with respect to Km, pH optimum and inhibition. The bound enzyme was stable to temperatures above 40 degrees C, in contrast with the soluble enzyme, and could be stored for 4 months at 2 degrees C with loss of 20% activity. The bound enzyme was used preparatively for the synthesis of radioactive and non-radioactive CMP-N-acetylneuraminic acid and CMP-N-glycolloylneuraminic acid. With suitable substrate concentrations and ratios, yields of 80% and over can be achieved. 相似文献

Leukotriene A4. Enzymatic conversion into 5,6-dihydroxy-7,9,11,14-eicosatetraenoic acid by mouse liver cytosolic epoxide hydrolase 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Mouse liver homogenates transformed leukotriene A4 into a 5,6-dihydroxy-7,9,11,14-eicosatetraenoic acid. This novel enzymatic metabolite of leukotriene A4 was characterized by physical means including ultraviolet spectroscopy, high performance liquid chromatography, and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. After subcellular fractionation, the enzymatic activity was mostly recovered in the 105,000 X g supernatant and 20,000 X g pellet. Heat treatment (80 degrees C, 10 min) or digestion with a proteolytic enzyme abolished the enzymatic activity in the high speed supernatant. A purified cytosolic epoxide hydrolase from mouse liver also transformed leukotriene A4 into a 5,6-dihydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid with the same physico-chemical characteristics as the compound formed in crude cytosol, but not into leukotriene B4, a compound previously reported to be formed in liver cytosol (Haeggstr?m, J., R?dmark, O., and Fitzpatrick, F.A. (1985) Biochim. Biophys. Acta 835, 378-384). These findings suggest a role for leukotriene A4 as an endogenous substrate for cytosolic epoxide hydrolase, an enzyme earlier characterized by xenobiotic substrates. Furthermore, they indicate that leukotriene A4 hydrolase in liver cytosol is a distinct enzyme, separate from previously described forms of epoxide hydrolases in liver. 相似文献

Guanine aminohydrolase (E.C. 3.5.4.3) has been purified 11-fold from the supernatant fraction of guinea-pig liver homogenates in 0.25 M sucrose (centrifuged at 50,000 X g) through thermic denaturation at 60 degrees C and ammonium sulphate fractionation (30--60% saturation). The enzyme in the homogenates and purified preparations exhibited two Km values. In both preparations four enzymatic electrophoretic bands have been detected. Purified guanine aminohydrolase is chromatographically resolved on DEAE-sephadex in three components whose active forms appeared separately on their pherograms. The enzymatic form eluted at lower ionic strength has the least anodic mobility, is inhibited by guanine (4 X 10(-5) M) and presents only one Km value (1.5 X 10(-5) M). The enzymatic form eluted at greater ionic strength exhibits the highest anodic mobility, is also inhibited by guanine (7 X 10(-5) M) and its Km value seems to be 6.3 X 10(-6) M. Molecular weight of enzymatics forms determined by Sephadex G-200 chromatography, is 120,000 +/- 5,000. The preceding results, correlated with the chromatographic homogeneity of guanine aminohydrolase, purified in Sephadex G-100, suggests that the four molecular forms of the native enzyme may be considered as isozymes. 相似文献

Rat brain ethanolaminephosphotransferase (CDPethanolamine : 1,2-diacylglycerol ethanolaminephosphotransferase, EC 2.7.8.1) was solubilized by treating rat brain microsomes with buffered solutions containing octyl glucoside or Triton X-100. The solubilized enzyme was stable both at 4 degrees C and at -18 degrees C. A partial purification was obtained using an ion-exchange chromatographic procedure. The partially purified enzyme showed four major bands in SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis; its specific activity was increased by a factor of 37 compared to that of the membrane-bound enzyme. Glycerol and diacylglycerol were effective as stabilizers. Phosphatidylcholine, lysophosphatidylcholine and phosphatidylserine increased both the specific activity and the stability of the partially purified enzyme. 相似文献

Ethanolaminephosphate cytidylyltransferase (EC 2.7.7.14), which catalyzes a central step in phosphatidylethanolamine synthesis, has been purified 1000-fold from a postmicrosomal supernatant from rat liver. The enzyme, which requires a reducing agent, like dithiothreitol, for activity, is stable for weeks at 0-4 degrees when stored in the presence of dithiothreitol and in the pH range 7.5 to 9.0. A molecular weight of 100 to 120 X 10(3) was estimated by gel chromatography on Sephadex G-200. Gel electrophoresis in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulfate gave only one protein band with an apparent molecular weight of 49 to 50 X 10(3). The reaction catalyzed by the enzyme is reversible with a Keq for the forward reaction of 0.46 under the assay conditions. Michaelis constants of 53 and 65 muM were determined for CTP and ethanolaminephosphate, respectively. From the product inhibition pattern an ordered sequential reaction mechanism is proposed, in which CTP is the first substrate to add to the enzyme and CDP-ethanolamine is the last product to be released. The possible role of this reaction in the regulation of phosphatidylethanolamine synthesis in liver is discussed. 相似文献

Bacillus sp. RK-1 was isolated as a bacterium that produced maltose phosphorylase (MPase) in the culture supernatant. Screening was done from among about 400 isolates that could grow at 55 degrees C in a medium containing maltose as the sole carbon source. The enzyme was purified to an electrophoretically homogeneous state and some properties were investigated. The Mr of the enzyme was estimated to be 170 kDa by gel filtration and 88.5 kDa by SDS-PAGE, suggesting that it consisted of two identical subunits. The enzyme showed optimum activity around pH 6.0-7.0 and the optimum temperature was about 65 degrees C. The enzyme was stable in the range of pH 5.5-8.0 after keeping it at 4 degrees C for 24 h and retained the activity up to about 55 degrees C after keeping it for 15 min. This is the first report about an MPase that could be produced in the culture supernatant. Furthermore, these investigations showed that this MPase is one of the most thermostable ones reported so far. 相似文献

A new screening method for 6beta-hydroperoxycholest-4-en-3-one (HCEO)-forming cholesterol oxidase was devised in this study. As the result of the screening, a novel cholesterol oxidase producer (strain DS-1) was isolated and identified as Chromobacterium sp. Extracellular cholesterol oxidase of strain DS-1 was purified from the culture supernatant. The molecular mass of the purified enzyme was 58 kDa. This enzyme showed a visible adsorption spectrum having peaks at 355 and 450 nm, like a typical flavoprotein. The enzyme oxidized cholesterol to HCEO, with the consumption of 2 mol of O2 and the formation of 1 mol of H2O2 for every 1 mol of cholesterol oxidized. The enzyme oxidized 3beta-hydroxysteroids such as cholesterol, beta-cholestanol, and pregnenolone at high rates. The Km value for cholesterol was 26 microM. The enzyme was stable at pH 3 to 11 and most active at pH 7.0-7.5, showing optimal activity at pH 7.0 and 65 degrees C. The enzyme retained about 80% of its activity after incubation for 30 min at 85 degrees C. The thermal stability of the enzyme was the highest among the cholesterol oxidases tested. Moreover, the enzyme was more stable in the presence of various organic solvents and detergents than commercially available cholesterol oxidases. 相似文献

A riboflavin synthetase was purified 51-fold from a thermophilic organism, Bacillus stearothermophilus ATCC 8005, that grew at 40 to 72 degrees C. Some of the properties of the enzyme are: (i) its temperature optimum was 95 degrees C, and the activity was negligible below 40 degrees C; (ii) the Arrhenius plot of the initial reaction rates was concave upward, with a break at 65 degrees C, and the apparent activation energies below and above 65 degrees C were 4.2 X 10(4) and 6.7 X 10(4) J/mol, respectively; (iii) the enzyme was fairly stable up to 60 degrees C without 6,7-dimethyl-8-ribityllumazine; this substance protected the enzyme from inactivation above 60 to 97 degrees C; (iv) the pH range for stability was 6.0 to 10.0 at 26 degrees C and 6.3 to 7.6 at 55 degrees C; (v) the enzyme was highly resistant at 26 degrees C to denaturation in 8 M urea, but the tolerance was extremely low at 55 degrees C; (vi) its molecular weight was estimated at 45,000; (vii) the Km for 6,7-dimethyl-8-ribityllumazine was 23 micrometer at 55 degrees C and 29 micrometer at 75 degrees C; (viii) its pH optimum was 6.7 to 7.2; (ix) 6-methyl-7-hydroxy-8-ribityllumazine was a competitive inhibitor (Ki = 0.18 micrometer); (x) the activity was sensitive to heavy-metal ions and thiol reagents; (xi) the enzyme did not require cofactor or a carbon donor; and (xii) the molar ratio of 6,7-dimethyl-8-ribityllumazine consumption to riboflavin formation was 2 throughout the entire reaction. Properties i through vi distinguish this enzyme from riboflavin synthetases purified by other investigators from mesophilic organisms, Ashbya gossypii, Eremothecium ashbyii, Escherichia coli, yeast, and spinach. 相似文献

Extracellular phytase (E.C. 3.1.3.8) from Aspergillus ficuum NRRL 3135: purification and characterization 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7
Extracellular phytase from Aspergillus ficuum, a glycoprotein, was purified to homogeneity in 3 column chromatographic steps using ion exchange and chromatofocusing. Results of gel filtration chromatography and SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis indicated the approximate molecular weight of the native protein to be 85-100-KDa. On the basis of a molecular weight of 85-KDa, the molar extinction coefficient of the enzyme at 280 nm was estimated to be 1.2 X 10(4) M-1 cm-1. The isoelectric point of the enzyme, as deduced by chromatofocusing, was about 4.5. The purified enzyme is remarkably stable at 0 degree C. Thermal inactivation studies have shown that the enzyme retained 40% of its activity after being subjected to 68 degrees C for 10 minutes, and the enzyme exhibited a broad temperature optimum with maximum catalytic activity at 58 degrees C. The Km of the enzyme for phytate and p-nitrophenylphosphate is about 40 uM and 265 uM, respectively, with an estimated turnover number of the enzyme for phytate of 220 per sec. Enzymatic deglycosylation of phytase by Endoglycosidase H lowered the molecular weight of native enzyme from 85-100-KDa to about 76-KDa; the digested phytase still retained some carbohydrate as judged by positive periodic acid-Schiff reagent staining of the electrophoresed protein. Immunoblotting of the phytase with monoclonal antibody 7H10 raised against purified native enzyme recognized not only native but also partially deglycosylated protein. 相似文献

Lactate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.27) from Vibrio marinus MP-1 was purified 15-fold and ammonium activated. The optimum pH for pyruvate reduction was 7.4. Maximum lactate dehydrogenase activity occurred at 10 to 15 degrees C, and none occurred at 40 degrees C. The crude-extract enzyme was stable between 15 and 20 degrees C and lost 50% of its activity after 60 min at 45 degrees C. The partially purified enzyme was stable between 8 and 15 degrees C and lost 50% of its activity after 60 min at 30 degrees C. The thermal stability of lactate dehydrogenase was increased by mercaptoethanol, with 50% remaining activity at 42 degrees C. 相似文献

When 14C-labeled (14S, 15S)-14,15-trans-oxido-5,8-cis-10,12-trans-eicosatetraenoic acid (14,15-leukotriene A4) was incubated with cytosolic epoxide hydrolase purified from mouse liver, one major radiolabeled product appeared. The structure was assigned as (14R, 15S)-14,15-dihydroxy-5,8-cis-10,12-trans-eicosatetraenoic acid (14,15-DHETE), based on analytical data as well as enzyme mechanistic considerations. The formation of this compound was dependent on time and enzyme concentration and was abolished after heat treatment of the enzyme. The apparent Km and Vmax values at 37 degrees C were 11 microM and 900 nmol X mg-1 X min-1 respectively. This enzymatic hydrolysis of 14,15-leukotriene A4 represents an additional mode of formation for 14,15-DHETE, a compound previously found to modulate functions of human leukocytes. 相似文献

beta-Glucosidase was purified from the culture supernatant of Penicillium purpurogenum. The purified enzyme was homogeneous on both nondenaturing and sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS)-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The enzyme is a monomeric glycoprotein with M(r) of 90,000 as determined by gel filtration on Bio-Gel P-300 and SDS-polyacrylamide gels. Two enzyme forms were resolved by chromatofocusing and isoelectric focusing, and the pI values obtained with both methods were 4.2 (major form) and 6.0. The major form was characterised further. Enzyme activity was optimal at pH 3.5 and at 60 degrees C. The enzyme was stable in the pH range 2.5-9.5 for 24 h at 4 degrees C. Kinetic analysis gave Kms of 0.8 mM for cellobiose and 85 microM for p-nitrophenyl-beta-D-glucopyranoside. The enzyme hydrolyses a wide range of substrates including aryl-beta-glucosides, cellobiose, and amygdalin. Glucose inhibits competitively and glucono-delta-lactone is a mixed inhibitor of the enzyme. 相似文献

Kinetic parameters and thermodynamic values of beta-xylosidase production by Kluyveromyces marxianus
Rajoka MI 《Bioresource technology》2007,98(11):2212-2219
Kinetic parameters for production of beta-xylosidase by Kluyveromyces marxianus were determined in growth media containing glucose, xylose, cellobiose, sucrose and lactose as carbon sources. K. marxianus achieved maximum beta-xylosidase specific product yield (Y(P/X)) when grown on xylose. Basal level of activity was achieved in cultures grown on glucose. Kinetic parameters of enzyme production and cell mass formation were correlated. Enzyme synthesis was regulated by an induction mechanism and growth-dependent repression mechanism. Thermodynamic analysis revealed that the cell system exerted protection against thermal inactivation. A partially purified enzyme showed good stability when incubated at 60 degrees C and was quite stable at a pH of 5.0-7.0 and may be exploited for commercial applications. 相似文献

Acetyl-CoA carboxylase in rat liver homogenates was activated in vitro in a time- and temperature-dependent manner. The activity of acetyl-CoA carboxylase in rat liver preparations was determined in a 1-min assay to preclude the possibility of citrate activation of the enzyme during the assay period. Activation of the enzyme occurred more rapidly in liver preparations continuously maintained at ambient or greater temperatures than in homogenates of liver which had been chilled. High speed supernatant (105,000 X g, 60 min) did not heat-activate, and reconstitution of the heat-activatable 27,000 X g, 20-min, fraction by recombining the high speed pellet with the high speed supernatant only partially restored the heat activatability. Elution of the 105,000 X g supernatant from Sephadex G-25 resulted in an enzyme preparation which was heat-activatable. Addition of boiled 105,000 X g supernatant to the Sephadex G-25-treated enzyme again prevented heat activation. Dilution of the enzyme 5-fold did not prevent heat activation. 相似文献

The hydroxymethylglutaryl-coenzyme A reductase (mevalonate:NADP+ oxidoreductase, EC 1.1.1.34) system in Fusarium oxysporum, a soil inhabiting plant pathogen, has been examined. Two forms of the enzyme catalyzing the conversion of hydroxymethylglutaryl-coenzyme A were obtained in the supernatant after precipitation at 75% (NH4)2SO4 saturation of the soluble culture extract which was previously separated from cell wall, mitochondria and microsomes. The two forms of the enzyme were separated electrophoretically. A third form, contained in the precipitate obtained at 35--75% (NH4)2SO4 saturation of the same extract, was further purified by Sephadex G-50 column chromatography. This purified form moved as a single band in sodium dodecyl sulphate electrophoresis and in immunological tests and has a molecular weight of 11 000. The apparent Michaelis constant for the substrate hydroxymethylglutaryl-coenzyme A is 21 micron at 2 micron NADP. NADPH is a more efficient reductant on a molar basis than NADH for the deacylation of the hydroxymethylglutaryl-coenzyme A substrate. Optimum activity of the enzyme was obtained at pH 7.4 and 37 degrees C. The enzyme demonstrated no cold sensitivity but rather was more stable at 4 degrees C than at 25 degrees C. The protection with dithiothreitol, though minimal compared to other systems, was more effective at the higher temperature. 相似文献

An esterase that deacetylates cephalosporins was recovered from the supernatant of a Bacillus subtilis culture. It was partially purified by ammonium sulfate fractionation and ultrafiltration. The enzyme had a temperature optimum between 40 and 50 C and a pH optimum of 7.0. The molecular weight was estimated by gel filtration to be 190,000. The enzyme was very stable and retained greater than 80% of its activity after storage in solution at 25 C for 1 month. The esterase exhibited Michaelis-Menton kinetics with the substrates 7-aminocephalosporanic acid (7-ACA) and 7-(thiophene-2-acetamido)cephalosporanic acid (cephalothin); the K(m) values were 2.8 X 10(-3) and 8.3 X 10(-3) M, respectively. The products of 7-ACA deacetylation were weak competitive inhibitors, and a K(i) value of 5.0 X 10(-2) M was determined for acetate and of 3.6 X 10-2 M for deacetyl-7-ACA. Weak product inhibition did not prevent the deacetylation reaction from going to completion. A 5-mg/ml solution of partially purified esterase completely hydrolyzed (greater than 99.5%) a 24-mg/ml solution of 7-ACA in 3 h. Because of the kinetic properties and excellent stability, this enzyme may be useful in an immobilized form to prepare large quantities of deacetylated cephalosporin derivatives. 相似文献

Hyaluronidase from Propionibacterium acnes has been purified 13,000-fold from the culture supernatant to homogeneity (as determined by polyacrylamide disc gel electrophoresis). The molecular weight of the purified enzyme was 85,110 as determined by gel filtration. The purified enzyme had a pH optimum at 6.4, was stable between pH 5 and 5.8 and was completely inactivated after 15 min at 50 degrees C. Preliminary studies suggested that the enzyme is active against chondroitin 4- and 6-sulphates, but not against dermatan sulphate. Analysis by paper chromatography of the reaction products from the degradation of hyaluronic acid by bacterial, testicular and P. acnes enzymes suggested that the P. acnes enzyme is similar in its mode of action to other bacterial hyaluronate lyases. The enzyme from P. acnes may thus be tentatively classified as a hyaluronate lyase. 相似文献

[4-Vinyl] chlorophyllide a reductase (4VCR) is a key enzyme of the chlorophyll (Chl) biosynthetic pathway. It catalyzes the conversion of divinyl chlorophyllide (Chlide) a to monovinyl Chlide a by reduction of the vinyl group at position 4 of the macrocycle to ethyl. 4VCR is a membrane-bound enzyme, embedded in etioplast and etiochloroplast membranes. A study of the regulation and properties of this enzyme is mandatory for a comprehensive understanding of the biosynthetic heterogeneity of Chl biosynthesis. Solubilization and partial purification of 4VCR are described for the first time. The enzyme was solubilized with 5 mM Chaps and was partially purified by chromatography on DEAE-Sephacel and Cibacron Blue 3GA-1000 agarose. An overall 20-fold purification was achieved. The partially purified enzyme was stable for several months at -80 degrees C. 相似文献
