纤维素固相化木瓜蛋白酶

 本文用叠氮法制备了纤维素固相化木瓜蛋白酶(简称CMCP)。与相应酶液水解酪蛋白的反应相比,它表现出较低的酶活性,较高的最适pH值和较高的稳定性。CMCP的比活回收率约为24％,最适pH值向碱性范围移动约为0.5个单位。CMCP经60℃热处理,持续3h活性无明显下降,在4℃下保存127天,活性只下降了40％左右。对这些参数,本文都根据CMCP的结构特点进行了分析。 CMCP柱还表现出明显的对啤酒的防浊能力。过柱的啤酒,氨基酸的含量大大增加。

Improved Properties of Bacillus coagulans β‐Galactosidase through Immobilization

Thermostable β‐galactosidase from Bacillus coagulans RCS3 was purified by successive column chromatography using DEAE‐cellulose and Sephadex G‐50. Immobilization of the purified enzyme was studied with DEAE‐cellulose and calcium alginate. The efficiency of β‐galactosidase retention was 87 % with DEAE‐cellulose (17 mg protein/mL of matrix) and 80 % with calcium alginate (2.2 mg protein/g bead). Comparative studies of immobilization displayed a shift in the optimum temperature from 65 °C to 70 °C provoked by DEAE‐cellulose, although no effect was observed with calcium alginate. The heat inactivation curve revealed an improvement in the stability (t_1/2 of 14.5 h for the immobilized enzyme as compared to 2 h for the free enzyme at 65 °C) in a calcium alginate system. This immobilized enzyme has a wide pH stability range (6.5–11). β‐Galactosidase immobilized by DEAE‐cellulose and calcium alginate allowed a 57 and 70 % lactose hydrolysis, respectively, to be achieved within 48 h after repeated use for twenty times.

Photochemical Enzyme Immobilization on Textile Carrier Materials

The catalase (E.C. 1.11.1.6) enzyme was covalently immobilized on textile carrier fabrics made of poly(ethylene terephthalate) or polyamide 6.6 by a new photochemical process in the presence of cross‐linking agents. The enzyme and the bifunctional organic compound (diallylphthalate or cyclohexane‐1,4‐dimethanoldivinylether) were emulated in water using a non‐ionic surfactant. After wetting, the textile carrier materials were irradiated with a monochromatic excimer UV lamp (222 nm) in an inert atmosphere. Depending on the support and the cross‐linking agent used 20 – 30 mg enzyme per gram carrier could be fixed durably, which can be quantitatively analyzed by atomic absorption spectroscopy due to the iron content of the catalase. The efficiency of the immobilization products was investigated by measuring the enzymatic decomposition of hydrogen peroxide compared to the free enzyme. The relative activity of the catalase after the immobilization reached 10–20 % of the free, non‐fixed catalase. Even after 20 applications, the immobilized enzyme showed a distinct activity and the integral activity trough the period of all applications was higher by a factor of around 3.5 than the activity of the free catalase, which could be used only once in technical processes. Summing up the results, fabrics of a high protein load and a distinct activity can be produced with low preparative and economic expense by irradiating the materials by means of excimer UV lamps in the presence of cross‐linking agents.     

Immobilization of a protease on modified chitosan beads for the depolymerization of chitosan

Neutral protease was immobilized on chitosan (CS), carboxymethyl chitosan (CMCS), and N-succinyl chitosan (NSCS) hydrogel beads. And the biocatalysts obtained were used to prepare low molecular weight chitosan (LMWC) and chitooligomers. Weight-average molecular weight of LMWC produced by neutral protease immobilized on CS, CMCS and NSCS hydrogel beads were 3.4 kDa, 3.2 kDa and 1.9 kDa, respectively. The effects of immobilization support and substrate on enzymatic reaction were analyzed by measuring classical Michaelis-Menten kinetic parameters. The FT-IR, XRD and potentiometric determination results indicated decrease of molecular weight led to transformation of crystal structure, but the degree of N-deacetylation and chemical structures of residues were not changed compared to initial chitosan. The degree of polymerization of chitooligomers was mainly from 2 to 7. We observed a strong dependence of the immobilized enzyme properties on the chemical nature of the supports, which leads to different microenvironment of neutral protease and changes the hydrolyzing process.     

Effects of External Mass Transfer and Product Inhibition on a Simulated Immobilized Enzyme‐Catalyzed Reactor for Lactose Hydrolysis

A mathematical model has been developed for predicting the performance and simulation of a packed bed immobilized enzyme reactor performing lactose hydrolysis, which follows Michaelis‐Menten kinetics with competitive product (galactose) inhibition. The performance characteristics of a packed bed immobilized enzyme reactor have been analyzed taking into account the effects of various diffusional phenomena like axial dispersion and external mass transfer limitations. The model design equations are then solved by Galerkin's method and orthogonal collocation on finite elements. The effects of external mass transfer and axial dispersion have been studied and their effects were shown to reduce the external effectiveness factor. The effects of product inhibition have been investigated at different operating conditions correlated at different regimes using dimensionless moduli (St, γ, θ, Da)¹⁾. The product inhibition was shown to reduce the substrate conversion, and, additionally, to decrease the effectiveness factor when Da > Da_xo, however, it increases the effectiveness factor when Da < Da_xo. The effectiveness factor is found to be independent of the product inhibition at a crossover point at which Da_xo is defined. Effects of St and Pe have been investigated at different kinetic regimes and the results show that their effects have a strong dependency on the kinetic parameters θ, γ (i.e., K_m/K_p), and Da_xo.     

An Activated GOPS‐poly‐L‐Lysine‐ Coated Glass Surface for the Immobilization of 60mer Oligonucleotides

To explore a method for enhancing the immobilization and hybridization efficiency of oligonucleotides on DNA microarrays, conventional protocols of poly‐L‐lysine coating were modified by means of surface chemistry, namely, the slides were prepared by the covalently coupling of poly‐L‐lysine to a glycidoxy‐modified glass surface. The modified slides were then used to print microarrays for the detection of the SARS coronavirus by means of 60mer oligonucleotide probes. The characteristics of the modified slides concerning immobilization efficiency, hybridization dynamics, and probe stripping cycles were determined. The improved surface exhibited high immobilization efficiency, a good quality uniformity, and satisfactory hybridization dynamics. The spotting concentration of 10 μmol/L can meet the requirements of detection; the spots were approximately 170 nm in diameter; the mean fluorescence intensity of the SARS spots were between 3.2 × 10⁴ and 5.0 × 10⁴ after hybridization. Furthermore, the microarrays prepared by this method demonstrated more resistance to consecutive probe stripping cycles. The activated GOPS‐PLL slide could undergo hybridization stripping cycles for at least three cycles, and the highest loss in fluorescence intensity was found to be only 11.9 % after the third hybridization. The modified slides using the above‐mentioned method were superior to those slides treated with conventional approaches, which theoretically agrees with the fact that modification by surface chemistry attaches the DNA covalently firmly to the slides. This protocol may have great promise in the future for application in large‐scale manufacture.     

Molecular Dynamics Simulations on the Coenzyme Thiamin Diphosphate in Apoenzyme Environment

Thiamin diphosphate (ThDP) is an essential cofactor for a number of enzymes, and especially involved in the nonoxidative decarboxylation of -keto acids by pyruvate decarboxylase (PDC). Recently the crystal structure of PDC bound ThDP has been determined. Based on these X-ray data MD simulations of the isolated coenzyme as well as of ThDP in its enzymatic environment were performed, using the GROMOS87 software package. For the ThDP-apoenzyme modelling all significant amino acid residues with a cut-off radius less than 8.5 Å from the cofactor were taken into account.Because the activity of the coenzyme mainly depends on the formation of a specific structure, the conformational behavior of ThDP and enzyme bound ThDP were investigated within the MD simulations in more detail. Therefore, trajectories of significant structural parameters such as the ring torsion angles _T and _P as well as essential hydrogen bonds were analyzed by our graphics tool. Moreover, Ramachandran-like plots with respect to the torsion angles _T and _P were used for the illustration of preferred orientations of the two aromatic rings in ThDP.Finally, MD simulations on ThDP analogs with less or none catalytic activity and apoenzyme mutants were included, in order to get hints of conformational effects and significant interactions in relation to cofactor-apoenzyme binding and the catalytic mechanism.Supplementary material to this paper is available in electronic form at http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/s0089460020312     

Immobilization of cellulases on the reversibly soluble polymer Eudragit S‐100 for cotton treatment

Cellulases can penetrate into the fiber, causing tensile strength loss of the cellulosic fibers or fabrics. To minimize the tensile strength loss, we have immobilized cellulases on Eudragit S‐100. The characteristics of covalent Eudragit cellulase were evaluated using gel filtration analysis and UV spectra. Gel filtration analysis revealed that the cellulases were covalently bound to the polymer. Covalent Eudragit cellulase was loaded with the enzyme of about 40% and had a relative activity about 80% at a Eudragit S‐100 concentration of 15 g/L. When cellulase is bound to the polymer, the solubility profile becomes similar to the one of Eudragit. In addition, the effects of the enzyme on the cotton yarns and fabric using cellulases have been investigated. Native and immobilized cellulases caused improvements in whiteness and wrinkle recovery angle of the fabric in comparison to the control samples. The bending stiffness results show that native and immobilized cellulase treated cotton fabric has an improved softness than the control samples. It was found that using the immobilized cellulase reduced the weight and tensile strength, because the hydrolytic attack is only limited to the surfaces of cotton fibers.

Synthesis of ethyl ferulate in organic medium using celite-immobilized lipase

In the present work we have evaluated synthesis of ethyl ferulate by the esterification reaction of ferulic acid and ethanol catalyzed by a commercial lipase (Steapsin) immobilized onto celite-545 in a short period of 6 h in DMSO. The immobilized lipase was treated with cross-linking agent glutaraldehyde (1%; v/v). The optimum synthesis of ethyl ferulate was recorded at 45 °C, pH 8.5 and 1:1 ratio of ethanol and ferulic acid. Co²⁺, Ba²⁺and Pb²⁺ ions enhanced the synthesis of ethyl ferulate Hg²⁺, Cd³⁺and NH⁴⁺ ions had mild inhibitory effect. The celite-bound lipase produced 68 mM of ethyl ferulate under optimized reaction conditions.     

Immobilization of the Plug Domain Inside the SecY Channel Allows Unrestricted Protein Translocation

The SecYEG complex forms a protein-conducting channel in the inner membrane of Escherichia coli to support the translocation of secretory proteins in their unfolded state. The SecY channel is closed at the periplasmic face of the membrane by a small re-entrance loop that connects transmembrane segment 1 with 2b. This helical domain 2a is termed the plug domain. By the introduction of pairs of cysteines and crosslinkers, the plug domain was immobilized inside the channel and connected to transmembrane segment 10. Translocation was inhibited to various degrees depending on the position and crosslinker spacer length. With one of the crosslinked mutants translocation occurred unrestricted. Biochemical characterization of this mutant as well as molecular dynamics simulations suggest that only a limited movement of the plug domain suffices for translocation.

Immobilization of papain on cotton fabric by sol–gel method

A method has been developed to immobilize papain on cotton fabric by means of sol–gel technique. The activity of free papain and papain in silica sol under sonication was studied. Scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive spectrometer and the Bradford method were used to characterize papain immobilization. The efficiency of the immobilization was investigated by examining the relative enzymatic activity of free and immobilized papain, respectively. The results show that the optimum pH value in the medium for immobilized papain is shifted to alkaline side. In addition, the adaptability of papain to environmental acidity is significantly increased. The thermostability of immobilized papain shows no significant change compared to the free enzyme. The papain immobilized on fabric by sol–gel technique retains more than 30% of the original activity after six reuses continuously.
