An Acinetobacter sp. utilized 2-methoxy-4-formylphenoxyacetic acid, dehydrodivanillyl alcohol, dehydrodiisoeugenol and conidendrin as sole carbon source. It also degraded 14 C-labelled DHP lignin and teakwood lignin. Vanillic acid, protocatechuic acid and catechol were separated from 2-methoxy-4-formylphenoxyacetic acid grown cultures. Both protocatechuic acid and catechol were formed from dehydrodivanillyl alcohol, dehydrodiisoeugenol and conidendrin. On the dimeric lignin model substances this Acinetobacter sp. produced protocatechuate 3,4-dioxygenase and catechol 1,2-dioxygenase. 相似文献

Unexpected variation in lignin. 总被引:9,自引:0,他引:9
Recent studies on mutant and transgenic plants indicate that lignification may be far more flexible than previously realized. Pines with a mutation affecting the biosynthesis of the major lignin precursor, coniferyl alcohol, show a high level of an unusual subunit, dihydroconiferyl alcohol. These results argue in favor of an increased potential for genetic modification of lignin and indicate that our knowledge of the biosynthesis of lignin is far from complete. 相似文献

Nocardia sp. which was isolated from soil is capable of degrading synthetic lignin and utilizing its monomer derivatives. Decomposition was monitored by measuring the 14CO2 evolved and O2 consumed, when the bacterium was grown on a medium containing specifically 14C-labeled ligning or monomer phenolic compounds as major carbon source. The time course of the 14CO2 release and O2 uptake indicates a significant depolymerization and utilization of lignin by the Nocardia sp. 相似文献

Isoelectric focusing is introduced as a technique for the analysis of macromolecular lignin. The analysis is performed in a pH gradient from 3.5 to 10. Separated lignin fragments are visualized under uv light or by silver staining. The method can be used to distinguish between differently processed lignin preparations and to identify their components. Even the slight modification resulting from attack by ligninolytic enzymes could be detected. 相似文献

Lignin, the largest renewable aromatic resource, is a promising alternative feedstock for the sustainable production of various chemicals, fuels, and materials. Despite this potential, lignin is characterized by heterogeneous and macromolecular structures that must be addressed. In this review, we present biological lignin conversion routes (BLCRs) that offer opportunities for overcoming these challenges, making lignin valorization feasible. Funneling heterogeneous aromatics via a ‘biological funnel’ offers a high-specificity bioconversion route for aromatic platform chemicals. The inherent aromaticity of lignin drives atom-economic functionalization routes toward aromatic natural product generation. By harnessing the ligninolytic capacities of specific microbial systems, powerful aromatic ring-opening routes can be developed to generate various value-added products. Thus, BLCRs hold the promise to make lignin valorization feasible and enable a lignocellulose-based bioeconomy. 相似文献

Catalytic mechanisms and regulation of lignin peroxidase. 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3

Lignin peroxidase (LiP) is a fungal haemoprotein similar to the lignin-synthesizing plant peroxidases, but it has a higher oxidation potential and oxidizes dimethoxylated aromatic compounds to radical cations. It catalyses the degradation of lignin models but in vitro the outcome is net lignin polymerization. LiP oxidizes veratryl alcohol to radical cations which are proposed to act by charge transfer to mediate in the oxidation of lignin. Phenolic compounds are, however, preferentially oxidized, but transiently inactivate the enzyme. Analysis of the catalytic cycle of LiP shows that in the presence of veratryl alcohol the steady-state turnover intermediate is Compound II. We propose that veratryl alcohol is oxidized by the enzyme intermediate Compound I to a radical cation which now participates in charge-transfer reactions with either veratryl alcohol or another reductant, when present. Reduction of Compound II to native state may involve a radical product of veratryl alcohol or radical product of charge transfer. Phenoxy radicals, by contrast, cannot engage in charge-transfer reactions and reaction of Compound II with H2O2 ensues to form the peroxidatically inactive intermediate, Compound III. Regulation of LiP activity by phenolic compounds suggests feedback control, since many of the products of lignin degradation are phenolic. Such control would lower the concentration of phenolics relative to oxygen and favour degradative ring-opening reactions. 相似文献

Lignin, a complex phenylpropanoid compound, is polymerized from the monolignols p-coumaryl alcohol, coniferyl alcohol and sinapyl alcohol. These three monolignols differ only by the 3- and 5-methoxyl groups. Therefore, enzymatic reactions controlling the methylations of the 3- and 5-hydroxyls of monolignol precursors are critical to determine the lignin composition. Recent biochemical and transgenic studies have indicated that the methylation pathways in monolignol biosynthesis are much more complicated than we have previously envisioned. It has been demonstrated that caffeoyl CoA O-methyltransferase plays an essential role in the synthesis of guaiacyl lignin units as well as in the supply of substrates for the synthesis of syringyl lignin units. Caffeic acid O-methyltransferase has been found to essentially control the biosynthesis of syringyl lignin units. These new findings have greatly enriched our knowledge on the methylation pathways in monolignol biosynthesis. 相似文献

Background
Recent discoveries highlighting the metabolic malleability of plant lignification indicate that lignin can be engineered to dramatically alter its composition and properties. Current plant biotechnology efforts are primarily aimed at manipulating the biosynthesis of normal monolignols, but in the future apoplastic targeting of phenolics from other metabolic pathways may provide new approaches for designing lignins that are less inhibitory toward the enzymatic hydrolysis of structural polysaccharides, both with and without biomass pretreatment. To identify promising new avenues for lignin bioengineering, we artificially lignified cell walls from maize cell suspensions with various combinations of normal monolignols (coniferyl and sinapyl alcohols) plus a variety of phenolic monolignol substitutes. Cell walls were then incubated in vitro with anaerobic rumen microflora to assess the potential impact of lignin modifications on the enzymatic degradability of fibrous crops used for ruminant livestock or biofuel production. 相似文献9.

Sulphur-free lignin biopolymer and its oxidized and reduced derivatives have been prepared and their inhibitory activity against u.v.-induced mutagenesis in Euglena gracilis was evaluated. The structure- and dose-dependent anti-u.v. activity of lignins was observed at concentrations higher than 250gml–1. The oxidized lignin showed the most antimutagenic activity, followed by the reduced lignin and the unmodified lignin had the least antimutagenic activity. 相似文献

Disassembly of lignin and chemical recovery in supercritical water and p-cresol mixture. Studies on lignin model compounds 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The aim of the study was to gain insight into the role of the each unit of lignin in the formation of products. Glycerol, guaiacol, the mixture of glycerol and guaiacol (Gly&Gua), and guaiacylglycerol-beta-guaiacyl ether (GGGE) were used as lignin model compounds to study fragmentation of lignin in an excess of water and p-cresol at 400 degrees C. The products have been analyzed employing gas chromatography (GC)-mass spectrometer (MS) and gas chromatography-frame ionization detector for qualitative and quantitative analysis. GC-MS analysis indicated that phenol, o-cresol, methyl-anisole, di-methyl-phenol, ethyl-methyl-phenol, 2-(hydroxy-benzyl)-4-methyl-phenol (BMP) and 2-(2-hydroxy-5-methyl-benzyl)-4-methyl-phenol were formed. The products were similar to the products by the fragmentation of lignin. The products, except o-cresol, were primarily derived from glycerol and/or guaiacol. We also found that the amount of BMP derived from GGGE, which has glycerol unit and guaiacol unit in its structure, is much more than that derived from Gly&Gua. The increase of the BMP yield by reaction with GGGE compared with (glycerol and/or guaiacol) indicates that guaiacylglycerol unit with linkage of Gly&Gua plays an important role in the formation of BMP and also it is suggested that the BMP formation from GGGE has pathways other than that from Gly&Gua. 相似文献

Lignification and lignin topochemistry - an ultrastructural view. 总被引:15,自引:0,他引:15
L A Donaldson 《Phytochemistry》2001,57(6):859-873
This review discuses the ultrastructural aspects of cell wall lignification and lignin topochemistry. Lignification results from the enzyme mediated polymerization of monolignols initiated by unknown factors (initiation sites) located at the corners of cells and in the middle lamella. Lignification results in the filling of pores within the carbohydrate matrix following a sequence from the outer regions of the wall towards the lumen. The amount and chemical characteristics of lignin vary across the cell wall, with the presence of reaction wood, and among cell types. 相似文献

Nine proteins with lignin peroxidase activity were separated from cultures of Phanerochaete chrysosporium INA-12 in glycerol as carbon source and non-nitrogen limited. Four lignin peroxidase isozymes (4, 5, 8, 9) were purified and characterized. Although differences in kinetic parameters could be shown, antibody reaction showed homology between isozymes. However, thermal stability studied, peptide mapping results, and N-terminal sequence analyses established a higher degree of homology between isozymes 4/5 and 8/9 types. Protein characterization and kinetic data indicate that lignin peroxidase isozymes 4, 5, 8, and 9 differ from described isozymes in strain BKM. The higher specific activity of lignin peroxidase isozymes in cultures with glycerol than in nitrogen-starved cultures accounts for the higher lignin peroxidase activity obtained in these conditions. 相似文献

The present study maps the active site of lignin peroxidase in respect to substrate size using either fungal or recombinant wild type, as well as mutated, recombinant lignin peroxidases. A nonphenolic tetrameric lignin model was synthesized that contains beta-O-4 linkages. The fungal and recombinant wild type lignin peroxidase both oxidized the tetrameric model forming four products. The four products were identified by mass spectral analyses and compared with synthetic standards. They were identified as tetrameric, trimeric, dimeric, and monomeric carbonyl compounds. All four of these products were also formed from single turnover experiments. This indicates that lignin peroxidase is able to attack any of the C(alpha)-C(beta) linkages in the tetrameric compound and that the substrate-binding site is well exposed. Mutation of the recombinant lignin peroxidase (isozyme H8) in the heme access channel, which is relatively restricted and was previously proposed to be the veratryl alcohol-binding site (E146S), had little effect on the oxidation of the tetramer. In contrast, mutation of a Trp residue (W171S) in the alternate proposed substrate-binding site completely inhibited the oxidation of the tetrameric model. These results are consistent with lignin peroxidase having an exposed active site capable of directly interacting with the lignin polymer without the advent of low molecular weight mediators. 相似文献

The oxidation of veratryl alcohol, dimeric lignin models and lignin by lignin peroxidase: The redox cycle revisited 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Abstract: The mechanism of oxidation of veratryl alcohol and β-0–4 dimeric lignin models is reviewed. Veratryl alcohol radicals are intermediates in both oxidation pathways. The possible role of the veratryl alcohol radical cation as a mediator is discussed. The lignin peroxidase (LIP) redox cycle is analyzed in terms of the Marcus theory of electron transfer. Reduction of both LiP-Compound I (LiP-I) and LiP-Compound II (LiP-II) by veratryl alcohol occurs in the endergonic region of the driving force. The reduction of LiP-II has a higher reorganization energy due to the change in spin state and the accompanying conformational change in the protein. It is suggested that a reversible nucleophilic addition of a carbohydrate residue located at the entrance of the active site channel plays a key role in the LiP redox cycle. Moreover. (polymeric) hydroxysubstituted benzyl radicals may reduce LiP-II via long-range electron transfer. 相似文献

Biomimetic degradation of lignin and lignin model compounds by synthetic anionic and cationic water soluble manganese and iron porphyrins. 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
The biomimetic oxidation of 5-5' condensed and diphenylmethane lignin model compounds with several water soluble anionic and cationic iron and manganese porphyrins in the presence of hydrogen peroxide is reported. The oxidative efficiency of manganese and iron meso-tetra(2,6-dichloro-3-sulphonatophenyl) porphyrin chloride (TDCSPPMnCl and TDCSPPFeCl, respectively), meso-tetra-3-sulphonatophenyl porphyrin chloride (TSPPMnCl) and manganese meso-tetra(N-methylpyridinio)porphyrin pentaacetate (TPyMePMn(CH3COO)5) was compared on the basis of the oxidation extent of the models tested. Manganese porphyrins were found more effective in degrading lignin substructures than iron ones. Among them the cationic TPyMePMn (CH3COO)5, never used before in lignin oxidation, showed to be the best catalyst. The catalytic activity of porphyrins in hydrogen peroxide oxidation of residual kraft lignin was also investigated. The use of quantitative 31P NMR allowed the focusing on the occurrence of different degradative pathways depending on the catalyst used. TPyMePMn(CH3COO)5 was able to perform the most extensive degradation of the lignin structure, as demonstrated by the decrease of aliphatic hydroxyl groups and carboxylic acids. Noteworthy, no significant condensation reactions occurred during manganese porphyrins catalyzed oxidations of residual kraft lignin, while in the presence of iron porphyrins a substantial increase of condensed substructures was detected. 相似文献

Lignin and the secondary wall formation are essential for evolution of land plants. In this study, effects of hypergravity environment on the morphology of the secondary wall and the lignin content were examined in Arabidopsis thaliana. Xylem vessels showed intense staining with phloroglucinol-HCl and autofluorescence under UV light at the basal region of the flower stalk when seedlings grown for 3 days after hypergravity treatment for 24 hours. And, the flower stalk exposed to hypergravity showed slight increase in the lignin content. These results suggest that the lignin formation is positively regulated under hypergravity. 相似文献
