Enzymatic activation of PAA (phenylacetic acid) to phenylacetyl-CoA is an important step in the biosynthesis of the beta-lactam antibiotic penicillin G by the fungus Penicillium chrysogenum. CoA esters of PAA and POA (phenoxyacetic acid) act as acyl donors in the exchange of the aminoadipyl side chain of isopenicillin N to produce penicillin G or penicillin V. The phl gene, encoding a PCL (phenylacetate-CoA ligase), was cloned in Escherichia coli as a maltose-binding protein fusion and the biochemical properties of the enzyme were characterized. The recombinant fusion protein converted PAA into phenylacetyl-CoA in an ATP- and magnesium-dependent reaction. PCL could also activate POA, but the catalytic efficiency of the enzyme was rather low with k(cat)/K(m) values of 0.23+/-0.06 and 7.8+/-1.2 mM(-1).s(-1) for PAA and POA respectively. Surprisingly, PCL was very efficient in catalysing the conversion of trans-cinnamic acids to the corresponding CoA thioesters [k(cat)/K(m)=(3.1+/-0.4)x10(2) mM(-1).s(-1) for trans-cinnamic acid]. Of all the substrates screened, medium-chain fatty acids, which also occur as the side chains of the natural penicillins F, DF, H and K, were the best substrates for PCL. The high preference for fatty acids could be explained by a homology model of PCL that was constructed on the basis of sequence similarity with the Japanese firefly luciferase. The results suggest that PCL has evolved from a fatty-acid-activating ancestral enzyme that may have been involved in the beta-oxidation of fatty acids. 相似文献

Agmatine oxidase was purified and crystallized with an overall yield of about 30% from a mycelial extract of Penicillium chrysogenum by a procedure involving ammonium sulfate fractionation, and DEAE-cellulose, hydroxyapatite, 1,8-diaminooctane-Sepharose 4B and Sephadex G-200 column chromatographies. The purified enzyme was homogeneous on disc gel electrophoresis and the pink crystals appeared as a hexagonal board on addition of solid ammonium sulfate. The molecular weight of the native monomer form was determined to be 160,000 by gel filtration, and it was composed of two identical subunits. The prosthetic group was identified as copper and its content was determined to be 2 mol per mol of the enzyme. The enzyme was inhibited by hydroxylamine, hydrazine, phenylhydrazine, semicarbazide, KCN, PCMB, Ag+, Hg2+ and Cu2+. The apparent Km values for agmatine, histamine and putrescine were calculated to be 2.51 × 10?4m, 4.25 × 10?4m and 1.64 × 10?2m, respectively. 相似文献

Polyamine oxidase was purified and crystallized with an overall yield of 35% from mycelial extract of Penicillium chrysogenum by a procedure involving ammonium sulfate fractionation, and DEAE-cellulose and Sephadex G-200 column chromatographies. The crystalline enzyme was homogeneous, as judged by disc gel electrophoresis and ultracentrifugation. The sedimentation coefficient (s20, w0) of the enzyme was determined to be 6.9S, and diffusion coefficient (D20, w) to be 4.2 × 10?7 cm2 sec?1. The enzyme showed a molecular weight of about 160,000 by gel filtration method and ultracentrifugal analysis, and it was composed of two identical subunits. The enzyme was a flavoprotein with absorption maxima at 275, 375 and 450 nm. The prosthetic group was identified to be FAD. The enzyme oxidized spermine, and slightly oxidized spermidine. Diamines and monoamines were not oxidized. 相似文献

Eight fragments which cover the whole range of the mitochondrial genome of Penicillium urticae were subcloned into the yeast integration vector YIp5. Transformation of Saccharomyces cerevisiae with the constructed plasmids by the alkali cation method indicated that six plasmids are able to replicate in yeast. Both closed and open circular forms of the plasmids were detected in the DNA extracts from transformants. Distribution of the autonomously replicating sequence in the mitochondrial genome was similar to that in P. chrysogenum except for one small region. 相似文献

Previously, three arabinan-degrading enzymes were isolated from Penicillium chrysogenum 31B. Here we describe another arabinan-degrading enzyme, termed Abnc, from the culture filtrate of the same organism. Analysis of the reaction products of debranched arabinan by high-performance anion-exchange chromatography (HPAEC) revealed that Abnc cleaved the substrate in an endo manner and that the final major product was arabinotriose. The molecular mass of Abnc was estimated to be 35 kDa by SDS-PAGE. Enzyme activity of Abnc was highest at pH 6.0 to 7.0. The enzyme was stable up to 30 degrees C and showed optimum activity at 30 to 40 degrees C. Compared with a mesophilic counterpart from Aspergillus niger, Abnc exhibited a lower thermal stability and optimum enzyme activity at lower temperatures. Production of Abnc in P. chrysogenum was found to be strongly induced by arabinose-containing polymers and required a longer culture time than did other arabinanase isozymes in this strain. 相似文献

Nitrate reductase (NADPH:nitrate oxidoreductase; EC 1.6.6.1-3) was purified to apparent homogeneity from mycelium of Penicillium chrysogenum. The final preparation catalyzed the NADPH-dependent, FAD-mediated reduction of nitrate with a specific activity of 170-225 units X mg of protein-1. Gel filtration and glycerol density centrifugation yielded, respectively, a Stokes radius of 6.3 nm and an s20,w of 7.4. The molecular weight was calculated to be 199,000. On sodium dodecyl sulfate gels, the enzyme displayed two almost contiguous dye-staining bands corresponding to molecular weights of about 97,000 and 98,000. The enzyme prefers NADPH to NADH (kspec ratio = 2813), FAD to FMN (kspec ratio = 141), FAD (+ NADPH) to FADH2 (kspec ratio = 12,000), and nitrate to chlorate (kspec ratio = 4.33), where the kspec (the specificity constant for a given substrate) represents Vmax/Km. The Penicillium enzyme will also catalyze te NADPH-dependent, FAD-mediated reduction of cytochrome c with a specific activity of 647 units X mg of protein-1 (Kmcyt = 1.25 X 10(-5) M), and the reduced methyl viologen (MVH2, i.e. methyl viologen + dithionite)-dependent, NADPH and FAD-independent reduction of nitrate with a specific activity of 250 units X mg of protein-1 kmMVH2 = 3.5 X 10(-6) M). Initial velocity studies showed intersecting NADPH-FAD and nitrate-FAD reciprocal plot patterns. The NADPH-nitrate pattern was a series of parallel lines at saturating and unsaturating FAD levels. NADP+ was competitive with NADPH, uncompetitive with nitrate (at saturating and unsaturating FAD levels), and a mixed-type inhibitor with respect to FAD. Nitrite was competitive with nitrate, uncompetitive with NADPH (at saturating and unsaturating FAD levels), and a mixed-type inhibitor with respect to FAD. At unsaturating nitrate and FAD, NADPH exhibited substrate inhibition, perhaps as a result of binding to the FAD site(s). At very low FAD concentrations, low concentrations of NADP+ activated the reaction slightly. The initial velocity and product inhibition patterns are consistent with either of the two kinetic mechanisms. One (rather unlikely) mechanism involves the rapid equilibrium random binding of all ligands with (a) NADP+ and NADPH mutually exclusive, (b) nitrate and nitrite mutually exclusive, (c) the binding of NADPH strongly inhibiting the binding of nitrate and vice versa, (d) the binding of NADPH strongly promoting the binding of nitrite and vice versa, and (e) the binding of nitrate strongly promoting the binding of NADP+ and vice versa... 相似文献

Characterization of the novel antifungal chitosanase PgChP and the encoding gene from Penicillium chrysogenum 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

The protein PgChP is a new chitosanase produced by Penicillium chrysogenum AS51D that showed antifungal activity against toxigenic molds. Two isoforms were found by SDS-PAGE in the purified extract
of PgChP. After enzymatic deglycosylation, only the smaller isoform was observed by SDS-PAGE. Identical amino acid sequences
were obtained from the two isoforms. Analysis of the molecular mass by electrospray ionization-mass spectrometry revealed
six major peaks from 30 to 31 kDa that are related to different levels of glycosylation. The pgchp gene has 1,146 bp including four introns and an open reading frame encoding a protein of 304 amino acids. The translated
open reading frame has a predicted mass of 32 kDa, with the first 21 amino acids comprising a signal peptide. Two N glycosylation
consensus sequences are present in the protein sequence. The deduced sequence showed high identity with fungal chitosanases.
A high level of catalytic activity on chitosan was observed. PgChP is the first chitosanase described from P. chrysogenum. Given that enzymes produced by this mold species are granted generally recognized as safe status, PgChP could be used as
a food preservative against toxigenic molds and to obtain chitosan oligomers for food additives and nutraceuticals. 相似文献

Microorganisms, especially endophytic fungi that reside in the tissue of living mangrove plants, seem to play a major role in meeting the general demand for new biologically active substances. During the course of screening for biologically active secondary metabolites from marine microorganisms, an antibiotic compound containing an indole and a diketopiperazine moiety was isolated from the culture medium of Penicilliumchrysogenum, (MTCC 5108), an endophytic fungus on the mangrove plant Porteresiacoarctata (Roxb.). The cell free culture medium of P. chrysogenum showed significant activity against Vibriocholerae, (MCM B-322), a pathogen causing cholera in humans. Bioassay guided chemical characterization of the crude extract led to the isolation of a secondary metabolite possessing a molecular formula C19H21O2N3. Its antibacterial activity was comparable with standard antibiotic, streptomycin. This compound (1) was found to be (3,1′-didehydro-3[2″(3′″,3′″-dimethyl-prop-2-enyl)-3″-indolylmethylene]-6-methyl pipera-zine-2,5-dione) on the basis of mass spectrometry, infrared spectroscopy and one and two-dimensional nuclear magnetic resonance analysis. 相似文献

Submerged cultures of Penicillium urticae (NRRL 2159A) produced the antibiotics patulin and griseofulvin when grown in a glucose-nitrate medium. A high concentration of calcium (i.e., 68 mM) inhibited the production of both antibiotics while stimulating conidiogenesis. Conidial mutants that were defective in an early stage of conidiogenesis produced markedly less patulin, even under growth conditions that favored secondary metabolism. A mutant which lacked the ability to produce the patulin pathway metabolites m-cresol, toluquinol, m-hydroxybenzyl-alcohol, m-hydroxybenzaldehyde, gentisaldehyde, gentisyl alcohol, gentisic acid and patulin, as well as the pathway enzyme m-hydroxybenzyl-alcohol dehydrogenase, still produced yields of conidia that were equivalent to or greater than those of the parent strain. Other mutants which were blocked at later steps of the patulin pathway also produced conidia. These results indicate that patulin and the other related secondary metabolites noted above are not a prerequisite to conidiogenesis in P. urticae. Environmental and developmental factors such as calcium levels and conidiogenesis do, however, indirectly affect the production of patulin pathway metabolites. 相似文献

Adenosine 5'-phosphosulfate kinase from Penicillium chrysogenum. Purification and kinetic characterization 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Adenosine 5'-phosphosulfate (APS) kinase, the second enzyme in the pathway of inorganic sulfate assimilation, was purified to near homogeneity from mycelium of the filamentous fungus, Penicillium chrysogenum. The enzyme has a native molecular weight of 59,000-60,000 and is composed of two 30,000-dalton subunits. At 30 degrees C, pH 8.0 (0.1 M Tris-chloride buffer), 5.5 microM APS, 5 mM MgATP, 5 mM excess MgCl2, and "high" salt (70-150 mM (NH4)2SO4), the most highly purified preparation has a specific activity of 24.7 units X mg of protein-1 in the physiological direction of adenosine 3'-phosphate 5'-phosphosulfate (PAPS) formation. This activity is nearly 100-fold higher than that of any previously purified preparation of APS kinase. APS kinase is subject to potent substrate inhibition by APS. In the absence of added salt, the initial velocity at 5 mM MgATP plus 5 mM Mg2+ is maximal at about 1 microM APS and half-maximal at 0.2 and 4.4 microM APS. In the presence of 200 mM NaCl or 70-150 mM (NH4)2SO4, the optimum APS concentration shifts to 4-6 microM APS; the half-maximal values shift to 1-1.3 and 21-27 microM APS. The steady state kinetics of the reaction were investigated using a continuous spectrophotometric assay. The families of reciprocal plots in the range 0.25-5 mM MgATP and 0.8-5.1 microM APS are linear and intersect on the horizontal axis. Appropriate replots yield KmMgATP = 1.5 mM, KmAPS = 1.4 microM, and Vmax, = 38.7 units X mg of protein-1. Excess APS is an uncompetitive inhibitor with respect to MgATP (K1APS = 23 microM). PAPS, the product of the forward reaction, is also uncompetitive with MgATP. PAPS is not competitive with APS. In the reverse direction, the plots have the characteristics of a rapid equilibrium ordered sequence with MgADP adding before PAPS. The kinetic constants are KmPAPS = 8 microM, KiMgADP = 560 microM, and Vmaxr = 0.16 units X mg of protein-1. Iso-PAPS (the 2'-phosphate isomer of PAPS) is competitive with PAPS and uncompetitive with respect to MgADP (Ki = 6 microM). APS kinase is inactivated by phenylglyoxal, suggesting the involvement of an essential argininyl residue. MgATP or MgADP at 10 Ki protect against inactivation. APS or PAPS at 600 and 80 Km, respectively, are ineffective alone, but provide nearly complete protection in the presence of 0.1 Ki of MgADP or MgATP.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS) 相似文献

Two species of Penicillium--P. chrysogenum and P. crustosum--were cultured in presence of [3H]testosterone as a substrate. Both species were shown to reduce the 4,5-double bond in testosterone to give dihydrotestosterone (DHT). The steroids produced were 5alpha-dihydrotestosterone, DHT, 3alpha-hydroxy-5beta-androstan-17-one, 3alpha-hydroy-5alpha-androstan-17-one, 4-androstene-3,17-dione, and 5alpha-androstane-3,17-dione. These products implicate the presence of the 5alpha-reductase, with maximal activity at pH 6 and 8, in both species of Penicillium. The presence of DHT in the growth medium and not in the mycelium suggests that DHT is excreted into the medium. 相似文献
