The enzyme beta-galactosidase was purified from a cold-adapted organism isolated from Antarctica. The organism was identified as a psychotrophic Pseudoalteromonas sp. The enzyme was purified with high yields by a rapid purification scheme involving extraction in an aqueous two-phase system followed by hydrophobic interaction chromatography and ultrafiltration. The beta-galactosidase was optimally active at pH 9 and at 26 degrees C when assayed with o-nitrophenyl-beta-D-galactopyranoside as substrate for 2 min. The enzyme activity was highly sensitive to temperature above 30 degrees C and was undetectable at 40 degrees C. The cations Na+, K+, Mg2+ and Mn2+ activated the enzyme while Ca2+, Hg2+, Cu2+ and Zn2+ inhibited activity. The shelf life of the pure enzyme at 4 degrees C was significantly enhanced in the presence of 0.1% (w/v) polyethyleneimine. The pure beta-galactosidase was also evaluated for lactose hydrolysis. More than 50% lactose hydrolysis was achieved in 8 h in buffer at an enzyme concentration of 1 U/ml, and was increased to 70% in the presence of 0.1% (w/v) polyethyleneimine. The extent of lactose hydrolysis was 40-50% in milk. The enzyme could be immobilized to Sepharose via different chemistries with 60-70% retention of activity. The immobilized enzyme was more stable and its ability to hydrolyze lactose was similar to that of the soluble enzyme.  相似文献

The gram-negative antarctic bacterium Pseudoalteromonas sp. 22b, isolated from the alimentary tract of krill Thyssanoessa macrura, synthesizes an intracellular cold-adapted beta-galactosidase. The gene encoding this beta-galactosidase has been PCR amplified, cloned, expressed in Escherichia coli, purified, and characterized. The enzyme is active as a homotetrameric protein, and each monomer consists of 1028 amino acid residues. The enzyme was purified to homogeneity (50% recovery of activity) by using the fast, two-step procedure, including affinity chromatography on PABTG-Sepharose. Enzymatic properties of the recombinant protein are identical to those of native Pseudoalteromonas sp. 22b beta-galactosidase. The enzyme is cold-adapted and at 10 degrees C retains 20% of maximum activity. The purified enzyme displayed maximum activity close to 40 degrees C and at pH of 6.0-8.0. PNPG was its preferred substrate (58% higher activity than against ONPG). The enzyme was particularly thermolabile, losing all activities within 10 min at 50 degrees C. The hydrolysis of lactose in a milk assay revealed that 90% of milk lactose was hydrolyzed during 6 h at 30 degrees C and during 28 h at 15 degrees C. Because of its attributes, the recombinant Pseudoalteromonas sp. 22b beta-galactosidase could be applied at refrigeration temperatures for production of lactose-reduced dairy products.  相似文献

Cultural conditions optimum for beta-galactosidase production by Saccharomyces anamensis are pH 4.5, temperature 26 +/- 2 degrees C, and 30 h of incubation period. Addition of lactose at 24 h fermentation greatly increase the level of enzyme. Optimum pHl, temperature, pH stability, and thermostability of yeast beta-galactosidase are negligibly affected by immobilization. The K(m) values of enzyme in the native and immobilized cells are 102mM and 148mM, respectively. Glucose noncompetitively inhibits the enzyme activity. Addition of substances such as dithioerythritol, glutathione, and bovine serum albumin to the native cell during assay procedure and immobilized cell prior to immobilization have stimulatory effects on enzyme activity. Metal ions like Ca(2+), Mg(2+) enhance the beta-galactosidase activity for both intact and bound cells. Immobilized cells retain 68.6% of the beta-galactosidase activity of intact cells and there is no significant loss of activity on storage at 4 degrees C for 28 days.  相似文献

A beta-galactosidase (EC 3.2.1.23) from peach (Prunus persica cv Mibackdo) was purified and characterized. The purified peach beta-galactosidase was 42 kDa in molecular mass and showed high enzyme activity against a the beta-galactosidase substrate, rho-nitrophenyl-beta-D-galactopyranoside. The Km and Vmax values of the enzyme activity of the peach beta-galactosidase were 5.16 and 0.19 mM for rho-nitrophenyl-beta-D-galactopyranoside mM/h, respectively. The optimum pH of the enzyme activity was pH 3.0, but it was relatively stable from pH 3.0-10.0. The temperature optimum was 50 degrees C. The enzyme activities were not improved in the buffers that contained Ca2+, Cu2+, Zn2+, and Mg2+, which indicates that the purified peach beta-galactosidase did not require these cations as co-factors. However, the enzyme was completely inhibited by Hg2+. The purified protein was cross-reacted with an antibody against the persimmon fruit beta-galactosidase. A further comparison of the N-terminal amino acid sequence of the purified protein showed high homologies to those of beta-galactosidase in apple (87%), persimmon (80%), and tomato (87%). Therefore, enzymatic, immunological, and molecular evidences in this study indicate that the purified 42-kDa protein is a peach beta-galactosidase.  相似文献

A cold-active beta-galactosidase of Antarctic marine bacterium Pseudoalteromonas sp. 22b was synthesized by an Escherichia coli transformant harboring its gene and immobilized on glutaraldehyde-treated chitosan beads. Unlike the soluble enzyme the immobilized preparation was not inhibited by glucose, its apparent optimum temperature for activity was 10 degrees C higher (50 vs. 40 degrees C, respectively), optimum pH range was wider (pH 6-9 and 6-8, respectively) and stability at 50 degrees C was increased whilst its pH-stability remained unchanged. Soluble and immobilized preparations of Antarctic beta-galactosidase were active and stable in a broad range of NaCl concentrations (up to 3 M) and affected neither by calcium ions nor by galactose. The activity of immobilized beta-galactosidase was maintained for at least 40 days of continuous lactose hydrolysis at 15 degrees C and its shelf life at 4 degrees C exceeded 12 months. Lactose content in milk was reduced by more than 90% over a temperature range of 4-30 degrees C in continuous and batch systems employing the immobilized enzyme.  相似文献

A thermophilic isolate Bacillus coagulans BTS-3 produced an extracellular alkaline lipase, the production of which was substantially enhanced when the type of carbon source, nitrogen source, and the initial pH of culture medium were consecutively optimized. Lipase activity 1.16 U/ml of culture medium was obtained in 48 h at 55 degrees C and pH 8.5 with refined mustard oil as carbon source and a combination of peptone and yeast extract (1:1) as nitrogen sources. The enzyme was purified 40-fold to homogeneity by ammonium sulfate precipitation and DEAE-Sepharose column chromatography. Its molecular weight was 31 kDa on SDS-PAGE. The enzyme showed maximum activity at 55 degrees C and pH 8.5, and was stable between pH 8.0 and 10.5 and at temperatures up to 70 degrees C. The enzyme was found to be inhibited by Al3+, Co2+, Mn2+, and Zn2+ ions while K+, Fe3+, Hg2+, and Mg2+ ions enhanced the enzyme activity; Na+ ions have no effect on enzyme activity. The purified lipase showed a variable specificity/hydrolytic activity towards various 4-nitrophenyl esters.  相似文献

An alkaliphilic, thermophilic Bacillus sp. (NCIM 59) produced extracellular xylose isomerase at pH 10 and 50 degrees C by using xylose or wheat bran as the carbon source. The distribution of xylose isomerase as a function of growth in comparison with distributions of extra- and intracellular marker enzymes such as xylanase and beta-galactosidase revealed that xylose isomerase was truly secreted as an extracellular enzyme and was not released because of sporulation or lysis. The enzyme was purified to homogeneity by ammonium sulfate precipitation followed by gel filtration, preparative polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, and ion-exchange chromatography. The molecular weight of xylose isomerase was estimated to be 160,000 by gel filtration and 50,000 by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, indicating the presence of three subunits. The enzyme is most active at pH 8.0 and with incubation at 85 degrees C for 20 min. Divalent metal ions Mg, Co, and Mn were required for maximum activity of the enzyme. The K(m) values for D-xylose and D-glucose at 80 degrees C and pH 7.5 were 6.66 and 142 mM, respectively, while K(cat) values were 2.3 x 10 s and 0.5 x 10 s, respectively.  相似文献

A new strain of Bacillus sp. was isolated from a hot water spring in India. This strain generated a high activity of extracellular beta-galactosidase at 37 degrees C in shake flasks. The beta-galactosidase activity was found to increase continuously but the production rate was slower than with some other organisms reported in the literature. There were noteworthy differences in the time-domain profiles of bacterial concentration and beta-galactosidase activity when the starting concentration of substrate (glucose) was tripled from 10 g/L. These differences may be explained in terms of the relative rates of enzyme synthesis and its diffusion across the cell wall. The enzyme produced by this organism is more stable than other beta-galactosidases; its half-life is 408 h at 50 degrees C and 94 h at 55 degrees C, while the reported enzymes showed perceptible loss of activity within 2 h.  相似文献

Isolation of a highly active preparation of beta-D-galactosidase   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
Methods for isolation and purification of beta-galactosidase from Bacillus subtilis, st. IBP-101 are described. The bacterial cells were disrupted by different procedures such as freezing and thawing with subsequent autolysis at 37 degrees C, disrupting in a French press DKM-3 or in ultrasonic disintegrators UZDN-1 (USSR) and Soniprep-150. It is shown that the specific activity and yield of the enzyme depends to a great extent on the disrupting procedure used. The best results were obtained in case of sonication. The preparation was purified by precipitation with ammonium sulphate (25-75% saturated) and chromatography on DEAE-cellulose and DEAE-Sephadex. The purified enzyme had a specific activity of 3155 units per mg protein. The molecular weight of the homogeneous according to gel polyacrylamide electrophoresis preparation was 215,000, as estimated by gel filtration, and 105,000, as estimated by SDS gel electrophoresis. The enzyme retains the activity in the presence of Na+, Mn2+ or Mg2+ ions or the thiolic reagents, dithiothreitol or 2-mercaptoethanol. The pH optimum of the enzyme activity is 6.3 and it is stable in water solutions at pH from 6 to 9 and can be lyophilized. The given preparation of beta-galactosidase has a high affinity for synthetic substrates such as o- and p-nitrophenyl-beta-D-galactopyranosides and 4-methylumbelliferyl-beta-D-galactopyranoside.  相似文献

beta-mannanase (EC 3.2.1.78) from Bacillus subtilis SA-22 was purified successively by ammonium sulfate precipitation, hydroxyapatite chromatography, Sephadex G-75 gel filtration and DEAE-52 anion-exchange chromatography. Through these steps, the enzyme was concentrated 30.75-fold with a recovery rate of 23.43%, with a specific activity of 34780.56 u/mg. Molecular weight of the enzyme was determined to be 38 kD by SDS-PAGE and 34 kD by gel filtration. The results revealed that the optimal pH value for the enzyme was 6.5 and the optimal temperature was 70 degrees C. The enzyme is stable between pH 5 to 10. The enzyme remained most of its activity after a treatment of 4 h at 50 degrees C, but lost 25% of activity at 60 degrees C for 4 h, lost 50% of activity at 70 degrees C for 3 h. The enzyme activity was strongly inhibited by Hg2+. The Michaelis constants (Km) were measured as 11.30 mg/mL for locust bean gum and 4.76 mg/mL for konjac powder, while Vmax for these two polysaccharides were 188.68 (micromol x mL(-1) x min(-1)) and 114.94 (micromol x mL(-1) x min(-1)), respectively.  相似文献

The wood-destroying fungus Phanerochaete chrysosporium secretes extracellular enzymes known as lignin peroxidases that are involved in the biodegradation of lignin and a number of environmental pollutants. Several lignin peroxidases are produced in liquid cultures of this fungus. However, only lignin peroxidase isozyme H8 has been extensively characterized. In agitated nutrient nitrogen-limited culture, P. chrysosporium produces two lignin peroxidases in about equal proportions. The molecular weights of these two major proteins (H2 and H8) as determined by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis were 38,500 (H2) and 42,000 (H8). The isoelectric points of these enzymes were 4.3 for H2 and 3.65 for H8. All subsequent experiments in this study were performed with H2 as it contributed the most (42%) to total activity and had the highest specific activity (57.3 U/mg). The Km values of lignin peroxidase H2 for H2O2 and veratryl alcohol were calculated to be 47 microM and 167 microM at pH 3.5, respectively. The pH optima for veratryl alcohol oxidase activity were pH 2.5 at 25 degrees C, pH 3.0 at 35 degrees C, and pH 3.5 at 45 degrees C. In the same manner the temperature optimum shifted from 25 degrees C at pH 2.5 to 45 degrees C at pH 3.5 and approximately 45-60 degrees C at pH 4.5. During storage the resting enzyme was relatively stable for 48 h up to 50 degrees C. Above this temperature the enzyme lost all activity within 6 h at 60 degrees C. At 70 degrees C all activity was lost within 10 min. The resting enzyme retained approximately 80% of its initial activity when stored at 40 degrees C for 21 h at a pH range of 4.0-6.5. Above pH 7.5 and below 4.0, the enzyme lost all activity in less than 5 h. During turnover the enzyme remained active at pH 5.5 for over 2 h whereas the enzyme activity was lost after 45 min at pH 2.5. The oxidation of veratryl alcohol was inhibited by EDTA, azide, cyanide, and by the catalase inhibitor 3-amino-1,2,4-triazole, but not by chloride. In the absence of another reducing substrate incubation of lignin peroxidase H2 with excess H2O2 resulted in partial and irreversible inactivation of the enzyme. The spectral characteristics of lignin peroxidase H2 are similar to those of other peroxidases. The suitability of lignin peroxidases for industrial applications is discussed.  相似文献

An extracellular beta-galactosidase from a thermophilic fungus Rhizomucor sp. has been purified to homogeneity by successive DEAE cellulose chromatography followed by gel filtration on Sephacryl S-300. The native molecular mass of the enzyme is 250,000 and it is composed of two identical subunits with molecular mass of 120,000. It is an acidic protein with a pI of 4.2. Purified beta-galactosidase is a glycoprotein and contains 8% neutral sugar. The optimum pH and temperature for enzyme activity are 4.5 and 60 degrees C, respectively. The enzyme is stable at 60 degrees C for 4 h, and has a t(1/2) of 150 min(-1) at 70 degrees C which is one of the highest reported for fungal beta-galactosidases. Substrate specificity studies indicated that the enzyme is specific for beta-linked galactose residues with a preference for p-nitrophenyl-beta-D-galactopyranoside (pNPG). The Km and Vmax values for the synthetic substrates pNPG and o-nitrophenyl-beta-D-galactopyranoside (oNPG) were 0.66 mM and 1.32 mM; and 22.4 mmol min(-1) mg(-1) and 4.45 mmol min(-1) mg(-1), respectively, while that for the natural substrate, lactose, was 50.0 mM and 12 mmol min(-1) mg(-1). The end product galactose and the substrate analogue isopropyl thiogalactopyranoside (ITPG) inhibited the enzyme with Ki of 2.6 mM and 12.0 mM, respectively. The energy of activation for the enzyme using pNPG and oNPG were 27.04 kCal and 9.04 kCal, respectively. The active site characterization studies using group-specific reagents revealed that a tryptophan and lysine residue play an important role in the catalytic activity of the enzyme.  相似文献

Thermostable amylolytic enzymes have been currently investigated to improve industrial processes of starch degradation. Studies on production of alpha-amylase by Nocardiopsis sp., an endophytic actinomycete isolated from yam bean (Pachyrhizus erosus L. Urban), showed that higher enzyme levels were obtained at the end of the logarithmic growth phase after incubation for 72 h at pH 8.6. Maximum activity of alpha-amylase was obtained at pH 5.0 and 70 degrees C. The isolated enzyme exhibited thermostable properties as indicated by retention of 100% of residual activity at 70 degrees C, and 50% of residual activity at 90 degrees C for 10 min. Extracellular enzyme from Nocardiopsis sp. was purified by fractional precipitation with ammonium sulphate. After 60% saturation produced 1130 U mg-1 protein and yield was 28% with purification 2.7-fold. The enzyme produced by Nocardiopsis sp. has potential for industrial applications.  相似文献

The first bacterial nonheme type bromoperoxidase has been purified to homogeneity from the chlorotetracycline-producing actinomycete Streptomyces aureofaciens Tü 24. Purification was accomplished by (NH4)2SO4 precipitation, DEAE-cellulose chromatography at different pH-values, and molecular sieve chromatography. The purified enzyme has a molecular mass of 90 to 95 kDa based on ultracentrifugation and gel filtration. The enzyme is composed of three subunits of identical molecular mass (m = 31 kDa). Bromoperoxidase catalyses the bromination of monochlorodimedone, but not its chlorination, and has no peroxidase or catalase activity. The optimum pH is 4.5. The enzyme does not exhibit an absorption peak in the Soret region of the optical spectrum. X-ray fluorescence spectroscopy revealed that the enzyme does not contain any metals in equimolar amounts. Bromoperoxidase is stable in a pH range from pH 4.0 to pH 10.0 at 4 degrees C for weeks and does not loose any activity when incubated at 80 degrees C for 2 h.  相似文献

An extracellular xylanase from the fermented broth of Bacillus cereus BSA1 was purified and characterized. The enzyme was purified to 3.43 fold through ammonium sulphate precipitation, DEAE-cellulose chromatography and followed by gel filtration through Sephadex G-100 column. The molecular mass of the purified xylanse was about 33 kDa. The enzyme was an endoxylanase as it initially degraded xylan to xylooligomers. The purified enzyme showed optimum activity at 55 degrees C and at pH 7.0 and remained reasonably stable in a wide range ofpH (5.0-8.0) and temperature (40-65 degrees C). The Km and Vmax values were found to be 8.2 mg/ml and 181.8 micromol/(min mg), respectively. The enzyme had no apparent requirement ofcofactors, and its activity was strongly inhibited by Cu++, Hg++. It was also a salt tolerant enzyme and stable upto 2.5 M of NaCl and retained its 85% activity at 3.0 M. For stability and substrate binding, the enzyme needed hydrophobic interaction that revealed when most surfactants inhihited xylanase activity. Since the enzyme was active over wide range ofpH, temperature and remained active in higher salt concentration, it could find potential uses in biobleaching process in paper industries.  相似文献

A Bacillus spp. strain SPS-0, isolated from a hot spring in Portugal, produced an extracellular xylanase upon growth on wheat bran arabinoxylan. The enzyme was purified to homogeneity by ammonium sulfate precipitation, anion exchange, gel filtration, and affinity chromatography. The optimum temperature and pH for activity was 75 degrees C and 6.0. Xylanase was stable up to 70 degrees C for 4 h at pH 6.0 in the presence of xylane. Xylanase was completely inhibited by the Hg(2+) ions. beta-Mercaptoethanol, dithiothreitol, and Mn(2+) stimulated the xylanase activity. The products of birchwood xylan hydrolysis were xylose, xylobiose, xylotriose, and xylotetraose. Kinetic experiments at 60 degrees C and pH 6.0 gave V(max) and K(m)values of 2420 nkat/mg and 0.7 mg/ml.  相似文献

AIMS: Characterization of a thermostable recombinant beta-galactosidase from Thermotoga maritima for the hydrolysis of lactose and the production of galacto-oligosaccharides. METHODS AND RESULTS: A putative beta-galactosidase gene of Thermotoga maritima was expressed in Escherichia coli as a carboxyl terminal His-tagged recombinant enzyme. The gene encoded a 1100-amino acid protein with a calculated molecular weight of 129,501. The expressed enzyme was purified by heat treatment, His-tag affinity chromatography, and gel filtration. The optimum temperatures for beta-galactosidase activity were 85 and 80 degrees C with oNPG and lactose, respectively. The optimum pH value was 6.5 for both oNPG and lactose. In thermostability experiments, the enzyme followed first-order kinetics of thermal inactivation and its half-life times at 80 and 90 degrees C were 16 h and 16 min, respectively. Mn2+ was the most effective divalent cation for beta-galactosidase activity on both oNPG and lactose. The Km and Vmax values of the thermostable enzyme for oNPG at 80 degrees C were 0.33 mm and 79.6 micromol oNP min(-1) mg(-1). For lactose, the Km and Vmax values were dependent on substrate concentrations; 1.6 and 63.3 at lower concentrations up to 10 mm of lactose and 27.8 mm and 139 micromol glucose min(-1) mg(-1) at higher concentrations, respectively. The enzyme displayed non-Michaelis-Menten reaction kinetics with substrate activation, which was explained by simultaneous reactions of hydrolysis and transgalactosylation. CONCLUSIONS: The results suggest that the thermostable enzyme may be suitable for both the hydrolysis of lactose and the production of galacto-oligosaccharides. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY: The findings of this work contribute to the knowledge of hydrolysis and transgalactosylation performed by beta-galactosidase of hyperthermophilic bacteria.  相似文献

A thermostable beta-galactosidase which catalyzed the production of galacto-oligosaccharide from lactose was solubilized from a cell wall preparation of Sterigmatomyces elviae CBS8119. The enzyme was purified to homogeneity by means of chromatography on DEAE-Toyopearl, Butyl-Toyopearl, Chromatofocusing, and p-aminobenzyl 1-thio-beta-D-galactopyranoside agarose columns. The molecular weight of the purified enzyme was estimated to be about 170,000 by gel filtration with a Highload-Superdex 200pg column and 86,000 by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Its isoelectric point, determined by polyacrylamide gel electrofocusing, was 4.1. The optimal temperature for enzyme activity was 85 degrees C. It was stable at temperatures up to 80 degrees C for 1 h. The optimal pH range for the enzyme was 4.5 to 5.0, it was stable at pH 2.5 to 7.0, and its activity was inhibited by Hg2+. The Km values for o-nitrophenyl-beta-D-galactopyranoside and lactose were 9.5 and 2.4 mM, respectively, and the maximum velocities for these substrates were 96 and 240 mumol/min per mg of protein, respectively. In addition, this enzyme possessed a high level of transgalactosylation activity. Galacto-oligosaccharides, including tri- and tetrasaccharides, were produced with a yield, by weight, of 39% from 200-mg/ml lactose.  相似文献
