The dynamics of β-xylosidase biosynthesis from Aspergillus niger B 03 was investigated in laboratory bioreactor. Maximum xylosidase activity 5.5 U/ml was achieved after 80 h fermentation at medium pH 4.0. The isolated β-xylosidase was immobilized on polyamide membrane support and the basic characteristics of the immobilized enzyme were determined. Maximum immobilization and activity yield obtained was 30.0 and 6.8%, respectively. A shift in temperature optimum and pH optimum was observed for immobilized β-xylosidase compared to the free enzyme. Immobilized enzyme exhibited maximum activity at 45 °C and pH 4.5 while its free counterpart at 70 °C and pH 3.5, respectively. Thermal stability at 40 and 50 °C and storage stability of immobilized β-xylosidase were investigated at pH 5.0. Kinetic parameters Km, Vmax and Ki were determined for both enzyme forms. Free and immobilized β-xylosidase were tested for xylose production from birchwood xylan. The substrate was preliminarily depolymerized with xylanase to xylooligosaccharides and the amount of xylose obtained after their hydrolysis with free and immobilized β-xylosidase was determined by HPLC analysis. Continuous enzyme hydrolysis of birchwood xylan was performed with xylanase and free or immobilized β-xylosidase. The maximum extent of hydrolysis was 25 and 30% with free and immobilized enzyme, respectively. Immobilized preparation was also examined for reusability in 20 consecutive cycles at 40 °C. 相似文献

Sporopollenin is a natural polymer obtained from Lycopodium clavatum, which is highly stable with constant chemical structure and has high resistant capacity to chemical attack. In this study, immobilization of lipase from Candida rugosa (CRL) on sporopollenin by adsorption method is reported for the first time. Besides this, the enzyme adsorption capacity, activity and thermal stability of immobilized enzyme have also been investigated. It has been observed that under the optimum conditions (Spo-E(0.3)), the specific activity of the immobilized lipase on the sporopollenin by adsorption was 16.3 U/mg protein, which is 0.46 times less than that of the free lipase (35.6 U/mg protein). The pH and temperature of immobilized enzyme were optimized, which were 6.0 and 40 °C respectively. Kinetic parameters Vmax and Km were also determined for the immobilized lipase. It was observed that there is an increase of the Km value (7.54 mM) and a decrease of the Vmax value (145.0 U/mg-protein) comparing with that of the free lipase. 相似文献

A rapid and simple method was developed for the separation and quantification of the anti nerve agent drug pyridostignmine bromide (PB; 3-dimethylaminocarbonyloxy-N-methyl pyridinium bromide) its metabolite N-methyl-3-hydroxypyridinium bromide, the insect repellent DEET (N,N-diethyl-m-toluamide), its metabolites m-toluamide and m-toluic acid, the insecticide permethrin (3-(2,2-dichloro-ethenyl)-2,2-dimethylcyclopropanecarboxylic acid(3-phenoxyphenyl)methylester), and two of its metabolites m-phenoxybenzyl alcohol, and m-phenoxybenzoic acid in rat plasma and urine. The method is based on using C18 Sep-Pak® cartridges for solid-phase extraction (SPE) and high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) with reversed-phase C18 column, and gradient UV detection ranging between 208 and 230 nm. The compounds were separated using gradient of 1 to 99% acetonitrile in water (pH 3.20) at a flow-rate ranging between 0.5 and 1.7 ml/min in a period of 17 min. The retention times ranged from 5.7 to 14.5 min. The limits of detection were ranged between 20 and 100 ng/ml, while limits of quantitation were 150–200 ng/ml. Average percentage recovery of five spiked plasma samples were 51.4±10.6, 71.1±11.0, 82.3±6.7, 60.4±11.8, 63.6±10.1, 69.3±8.5, 68.3±12.0, 82.6±8.1, and from urine 55.9±9.8, 60.3±7.4, 77.9±9.1, 61.7±13.5, 68.6±8.9, 62.0±9.5, 72.9±9.1, and 72.1±8.0, for pyridostigmine bromide, DEET, permethrin, N-methyl-3-hydroxypyridinium bromide, m-toluamide, m-toluic acid, m-phenoxybenzyl alcohol and m-phenoxybenzoic acid, respectively. The relationship between peak areas and concentration was linear over the range between 100 and 5000 ng/ml. This method was applied to analyze the above chemicals and metabolites following their administration in rats. 相似文献

The biocatalytic enantioselective reduction of 4′-methoxyacetophenone to (S)-1-(4-methoxyphenyl)ethanol was successfully conducted in a hydrophilic IL-containing co-solvent system using immobilized Rhodotorula sp. AS2.2241 cells. Of all the tested ILs, the best results were observed with the novel IL 1-(2′-hydroxy)ethyl-3-methylimidazolium nitrate (C2OHMIM·NO3), which showed a good biocompatibility with the cells and increased the cell membrane permeability moderately, thus improving the efficiency of the bioreduction. To better understand the bioreduction, several crucial influential variables were also examined. The optimal C2OHMIM·NO3 content, buffer pH, reaction temperature and substrate concentration were 5.0% (v/v), 8.5, 25 °C and 12 mM, respectively. Under the optimized conditions, the initial reaction rate, the maximum yield and the product e.e. were 9.8 μmol/h gcell, 98.3% and >99%, respectively, which are much better than the results previously reported. The established biocatalytic system has proven to be highly effective for the reduction of other aryl ketones. Also, the cells exhibited excellent operational stability in the presence of C2OHMIM·NO3. Moreover, the ILs can accumulate within the cells, suggesting that ILs are likely to interact with the related enzymes within the cells. 相似文献

Xylanase from Aspergillus tamarii was covalently immobilized on Duolite A147 pretreated with the bifunctional agent glutaraldehyde. The bound enzyme retained 54.2% of the original specific activity exhibited by the free enzyme (120 U/mg protein). Compared to the free enzyme, the immobilized enzyme exhibited lower optimum pH, higher optimum reaction temperature, lower energy of activation, higher Km (Michaelis constant), lower Vmax (maximal reaction rate). The half-life for the free enzyme was 186.0, 93.0, and 50.0 min for 40, 50, and 60°C, respectively, whereas the immobilized form at the same temperatures had half-life of 320, 136, and 65 min. The deactivation rate constant at 60°C for the immobilized enzyme is about 6.0 × 10−3, which is lower than that of the free enzyme (7.77 × 10−3 min). The energy of thermal deactivation was 15.22 and 20.72 kcal/mol, respectively for the free and immobilized enzyme, confirming stabilization by immobilization. An external mass transfer resistance was identified with the immobilization carrier (Duolite A147). The effect of some metal ions on the activity of the free and immobilized xylanase has been investigated. The immobilized enzyme retained about 73.0% of the initial catalytic activity even after being used 8 cycles. 相似文献

trans-Stilbene degradation was examined by the reaction using resting cells of microorganisms isolated through the enrichment culture
using trans-stilbene. The strain SL3, showing the highest trans-stilbene-degrading activity, was identified as Arthrobacter sp. One of the reaction products was identified to be cis,cis-muconic acid. Arthrobacter sp. SL3 cells also transformed benzaldehyde, benzoic acid and catechol into cis,cis-muconic acid, suggesting that one benzene ring of trans-stilbene was converted into cis,cis-muconic acid via benzaldehyde formed by its Cα=Cβ bond cleavage. 相似文献

Production of β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) by Bacillus firmus strain 37 cells, immobilized by adsorption on silica–titania (SiO2/TiO2) and silica–manganese dioxide (SiO2/MnO2) matrices, was optimized for temperature, substrate concentration and initial biomass. The immobilization process was most efficient at 60 °C with 10% maltodextrin and 1.0 g of cells, resulting, after a 5-day assay, in a β-CD production of 11.7 ± 0.1 mM for cells immobilized on SiO2/TiO2 and 11.2 ± 0.1 mM in SiO2/MnO2. Entrapment in alginate gel resulted in a maximum β-CD production of 4.1 ± 0.1 mM, which was maintained constantly until the end of a 10-day assay. During this same period, free cells produced 8.3 ± 0.2 mM, and cells immobilized on SiO2/TiO2 and SiO2/MnO2, 16.7 ± 0.4 and 17.3 ± 0.5 mM, respectively. β-CD production by cells immobilized in calcium alginate in four repetitive cycles of 5 days each, showed an increase up to the third cycle, reaching 4.8 ± 0.2 mM, while production by free cells started falling from the second cycle. In this same assay, cells immobilized on SiO2/TiO2 and SiO2/MnO2, showed the best β-CD production results at the end of the first cycle, with a gradual fall occurring due to the desorption of cells thereafter. 相似文献

We studied the seasonal variation on aerobic metabolism and the response of oxidative stress parameters in the digestive glands of the subpolar limpet Nacella (P.) magellanica. Sampling was carried out from July (winter) 2002 to July 2003 in Beagle Channel, Tierra del Fuego, Argentina. Whole animal respiration rates increased in early spring as the animals spawned and remained elevated throughout summer and fall (winter: 0.09 ± 0.02 μmol O2 h− 1 g− 1; summer: 0.31 ± 0.06 μmol O2 h− 1 g− 1). Oxidative stress was assessed at the hydrophilic level as the ascorbyl radical content / ascorbate content ratio (A / AH−). The A / AH− ratio showed minimum values in winter (3.7 ± 0.2 10− 5 AU) and increased in summer (18 ± 5 10− 5 AU). A similar pattern was observed for lipid radical content (122 ± 29 pmol mg− 1 fresh mass [FW] in winter and 314 ± 45 pmol mg− 1 FW in summer), iron content (0.99 ± 0.07 and 2.7 ± 0.6 nmol mg− 1 FW in winter and summer, respectively) and catalase activity (2.9 ± 0.2 and 7 ± 1 U mg− 1 FW in winter and summer, respectively). Since nitrogen derived radicals are thought to be critically involved in oxidative metabolism in cells, nitric oxide content was measured and a significant difference in the content of the Fe–MGD–NO adduct in digestive glands from winter and summer animals was observed. Together, the data indicate that both oxygen and nitrogen radical generation rates in N. (P.) magellanica are strongly dependent on season. 相似文献

The fragile histidine triad (Fhit) protein is a homodimeric protein with diadenosine 5′,5-P1,P3-triphosphate (Ap3A) asymmetrical hydrolase activity. We have cloned the human cDNA Fhit in the pPROEX-1 vector and expressed with high yield in Escherichia coli with the sequence Met-Gly-His6-Asp-Tyr-Asp-Ile-Pro-Thr-Thr followed by a rTEV protease cleavage site, denoted as “H6TV,” fused to the N-terminus of Fhit. Expression of H6TV–Fhit in BL21(DE3) cells for 3 h at 37°C produced 30 mg of H6TV–Fhit from 1 L of cell culture (4 g of cells). The H6TV–Fhit protein was purified to homogeneity in a single step, with a yield of 80%, using nickel-nitrilotriacetate resin and imidazole buffer as eluting agent. Incubation of H6TV–Fhit with rTEV protease at 4°C for 24 h resulted in complete cleavage of the H6TV peptide. There were no unspecific cleavage products. The purified Fhit protein could be stored for 3 weeks at 4°C without loss of activity. The pure protein was stable at −20°C for at least 18 months when stored in buffer containing 25% glycerol. Purified Fhit was highly active, with a Km value for Ap3A of 0.9 μM and a kcat(monomer) value of 7.2 ± 1.6 s−1 (n = 5). The catalytic properties of unconjugated Fhit protein and the H6TV–Fhit fusion protein were essentially identical. This indicates that the 24-amino-acid peptide containing the six histidines fused to the N-terminus of Fhit does not interfere in forming the active homodimers or in the binding of Ap3A. 相似文献

Thermoalkaliphilic Bacillus sp. strain TAR-1 isolated from soil produced an extracellular xylanase. The enzyme (xylanase R) was purified to homogeneity by ammonium sulfate fractionation and anion-exchange chromatography. The molecular mass of xylanase R was 40 kDa and the isoelectric point was 4.1. The enzyme was most active over the range of pH 5.0 to 10.0 at 50°C. The optimum temperatures for activity were 75°C at pH 7.0 and 70°C at pH 9.0. Xylanase R was stable up to 65°C at pH 9.0 for 30 min in the presence of xylan. Mercury(ll) ion at 1 mM concentration abolished all the xylanase activity. The predominant products of xylan-hydrolysate were xylobiose, xylotriose, and higher oligosaccharides, indicating that xylanase R was an endo-acting enzyme. Xylanase R had a Km of 0.82 mg/ml and a Vmax of 280 μmol min−1 mg−1 for xylan at 50°C and pH 9.0. 相似文献

Fructose-1,6-bisphosphate (FBP) aldolase, is a glycolytic enzyme that catalyzes the reversible condensation reaction of FBP to dihydroxyacetone phosphate (DHAP) and glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate (G3P). The aldolase gene from Aquifex aeolicus was subcloned, overexpressed in E. coli and purified to 95% homogeneity. The purified enzyme was activated by high concentrations of NH4+ and low concentrations of Co2+. The native molecular weight of the purified FBP aldolase was identified as 67 kDa (dimer) by gel filtration chromatography. The enzyme exhibits optimum pH at 6.5 and temperature at 90 °C. Based on the kinetic characterizations, the apparent Km was calculated to be 4.4 ± 0.07 mM, while Vmax was found to be 100 ± 0.02 μM min−1 mg protein−1. The recombinant protein showed extreme heat stability; no activity loss was observed even at 100 °C for 2 h. In addition, the thermophilic enzyme also showed higher stability against several organic solvents viz. acetonitrile, 1,4-dioxane, and methanol. With higher stability against both heat and organic solvents than any other class II aldolase, the A. aeolicus FBP aldolase is an attractive enzyme for use as a biocatalyst for industrial applications. 相似文献

A comparative study of different derivatization procedures has been performed in order to improve the stability of the reaction products o-phthalaldehyde–N-acetylcysteine (OPA–NAC) polyamines. Procedures such as solution derivatization, solution derivatization followed by retention on a packing support, derivatization on different packing supports and on-column derivatization, have been optimized and compared. The degradation rate constant (k) of the derivative was dependent on the procedure used and on the analyte. For the spermine (the most unstable isoindol tested) k was 8±2×10−2 min−1 in solution versus 7.7±1.1×10−4 min−1 on the (C18) solid support. The results obtained showed that forming the derivative on the packing support (C18) gave the best results following this procedure: conditioning the cartridges with borate buffer (1 ml, 0.5 M, pH 8), retention of the analyte, addition of 0.8 ml of OPA–NAC reagent, 0.2 ml borate buffer 0.8 M (pH 8) and elution of the isoindol with 3 ml of MeOH–borate buffer (9:1). The different derivatization procedures have been used to study the stability of the reaction products OPA–NAC polyamines formed in urine matrix using spermine as model compound. Similar results were obtained for standard solutions and urine samples. 相似文献

The soybean (Glycine max) urease was immobilized on alginate and chitosan beads and various parameters were optimized and compared. The best immobilization obtained were 77% and 54% for chitosan and alginate, respectively. A 2% chitosan solution (w/v) was used to form beads in 1N KOH. The beads were activated with 1% glutaraldehyde and 0.5 mg protein was immobilized per ml of chitosan gel for optimum results. The activation and coupling time were 6 h and 12 h, respectively. Further, alginate and soluble urease were mixed to form beads and final concentrations of alginate and protein in beads were 3.5% (w/v) and 0.5 mg/5 ml gel. From steady-state kinetics, the optimum temperature for urease was 65 °C (soluble), 75 °C (chitosan) and 80 °C (alginate). The activation energies were found to be 3.68 kcal mol−1, 5.02 kcal mol−1, 6.45 kcal mol−1 for the soluble, chitosan- and alginate-immobilized ureases, respectively. With time-dependent thermal inactivation studies, the immobilized urease showed improved stability at 75 °C and the t1/2 of decay in urease activity was 12 min, 43 min and 58 min for soluble, alginate and chitosan, respectively. The optimum pH of urease was 7, 6.2 and 7.9 for soluble, alginate and chitosan, respectively. A significant change in Km value was noticed for alginate-immobilized urease (5.88 mM), almost twice that of soluble urease (2.70 mM), while chitosan showed little change (3.92 mM). The values of Vmax for alginate-, chitosan-immobilized ureases and soluble urease were 2.82 × 102 μmol NH3 min−1 mg−1 protein, 2.65 × 102 μmol NH3 min−1 mg−1 protein and 2.85 × 102 μmol NH3 min−1 mg−1 protein, respectively. By contrast, reusability studies showed that chitosan–urease beads can be used almost 14 times with only 20% loss in original activity while alginate–urease beads lost 45% of activity after same number of uses. Immobilized urease showed improved stability when stored at 4 °C and t1/2 of urease was found to be 19 days, 80 days and 121 days, respectively for soluble, alginate and chitosan ureases. The immobilized urease was used to estimate the blood urea in clinical samples. The results obtained with the immobilized urease were quite similar to those obtained with the autoanalyzer®. The immobilization studies have a potential role in haemodialysis machines. 相似文献

(S)-3-Chloro-1-phenylpropanol is an important chiral precursor for numerous antidepressants such as tomoxetine. A high enantiomeric excess (e.e.) of (S)-3-chloro-1-phenylpropanol can be achieved by asymmetric reduction of 3-chloropropiophenone using Saccharomyces cerevisiae CGMCC 2266 cells immobilized in calcium alginate. Thermal pretreatment of the immobilized cells at 50 °C for 30 min resulted in high enantioselectivity (99% e.e.) and good percent conversion (80%). The effects of various conditions on the reduction reaction were investigated. The optimal conditions were found to be as follows: sodium alginate concentration, 2%; bead diameter, 2 mm; temperature, 30 °C; re-culture time, 24 h; and batch addition of the substrate. After reusing these three times, the immobilized cells retained approximately 60% of their original catalytic activity with their enantioselectivity intact. 相似文献

The studies were designed to assess the extent of chromosomal aberrations (CA) under the exposure of three common heavy metalic compounds, viz. mercuric chloride, arsenic trioxide and copper sulphate pentahydrate, in vivo using fish, Channa punctata (2n = 32), as a test model. Prior acclimatized fishes were divided into five groups. Group I and II served as negative and positive control, respectively. An intramuscular injection of Mitomycin-C (@ 1 mg/kg body wt.) was administered to group II only. Fishes of groups III, IV and V were subjected to sublethal concentrations (10% of 96 h LC50), of HgCl2 (0.081 mg/L), As2O3 (6.936 mg/L) and CuSO4·5H2O (0.407 mg/L). Fishes of all the groups were exposed uninterrupted for 24, 48, 72, 96 and 168 h. Observations of kidney cells of exposed fishes revealed chromatid and chromosome breaks, chromatid and chromosome gaps along with ring and di-centric chromosomes. A significant increase over negative control in the frequency of chromosomal aberrations (CA) was observed in fish exposed to Mitomycin-C, Hg(II), As(III) and Cu(II). As the average ± SE total number of CA, average number of CA per metaphase and %incidence of aberrant cells in Hg(II) was 104.40 ± 8.189, 0.347 ± 0.027 and 10.220 ± 0.842, respectively; in As(III) 109.20 ± 8.309, 0.363 ± 0.027 and 10.820 ± 2.347, respectively and in Cu(II) 89.00 ± 19.066, 0.297 ± 0.028 and 8.900 ± 0.853, respectively. Hence, it reveals that the order of induction of frequency of CA was Cu < Hg < As. The findings depict genotoxic potential of these metals even in sublethal concentrations. 相似文献

The reproductive and developmental biology of Gonatocerus ashmeadi Girault, a parasitoid of the glassy-winged sharpshooter Homalodisca coagulata (Say), was determined at five constant temperatures in the laboratory: 15; 20; 25; 30; 33 °C. At 30 °C, G. ashmeadi maintained the highest successful parasitism rates with 46.1% of parasitoid larvae surviving to adulthood. Lifetime fecundity was greatest at 25 °C and fell sharply as temperature either increased or decreased around 25 °C. Temperature had no effect on sex ratio of parasitoid offspring. Mean adult longevity was inversely related to temperature with a maximum of 20 days at 15 °C to a minimum of eight days at 33 °C. Developmental rates increased nonlinearly with increasing temperatures. Developmental rate data were fitted with the modified Logan model for oviposition to adult development times across each of the five experimental temperatures to determine optimal and upper lethal temperature thresholds. The lower developmental threshold estimated by the Logan model and linear regression were 1.10 and 7.16 °C, respectively. Linear regression of developmental rate for temperatures 15–30 °C indicated that 222 degree-days were required above a minimum threshold of 7.16 °C to complete development. A temperature of 37.6 °C was determined to be the upper development threshold with optimal development occurring at 30.5 °C. Demographic parameters were calculated and pseudo-replicates for intrinsic rate of increase (rm), net reproductive rates (Ro), generation time (Tc), population doubling time (Td), and finite rate of increase (λ) were generated using the bootstrap method. Mean bootstrap estimates of demographic parameters were compared across temperatures using ANOVA and nonlinear regression. 相似文献

Toluene dioxygenase (TDO) from Pseudomonas putida F1 converts indene to a mixture of cis-indandiol (racemic), 1-indenol, and 1-indanone. The desired product, cis-(1S, 2R)-indandiol, is a potential key intermediate in the chemical synthesis of indinavir sulfate (Crixivan), Merck's HIV-1 protease inhibitor for the treatment of AIDS. To reduce the undesirable byproducts 1-indenol and 1-indanone formed during indene bioconversion, the recombinant TDO expressed in Escherichia coli was evolved by directed evolution using the error-prone polymerase chain reaction (epPCR) method. High-throughput fluorometric and spectrophotometric assays were developed for rapid screening of the mutant libraries in a 96-well format. Mutants with reduced 1-indenol by-product formation were identified, and the individual indene bioconversion product profiles of the selected mutants were confirmed by HPLC. Changes in the amino acid sequence of the mutant enzymes were identified by analyzing the nucleotide sequence of the genes. A mutant with the most desirable product profile from each library, defined as the most reduced 1-indenol concentration and with the highest cis-(1S, 2R)-indandiol enantiomeric excess, was used to perform each subsequent round of mutagenesis. After three rounds of mutagenesis and screening, mutant 1C4-3G was identified to have a threefold reduction in 1-indenol formation over the wild type (20% vs 60% of total products) and a 40% increase of product (cis-indandiol) yield. 相似文献

The effect of four constant temperatures on the life history of Cirrospilus sp. near lyncus was examined in the laboratory. This species is one of the most abundant generalist indigenous parasitoids of the citrus leafminer, Phyllocnistis citrella Stainton, in Spain. Adult lifespan of C. sp. near lyncus decreased from 50.2 to 9.1 days as temperatures increased from 15 to 30°C, respectively. Both gross fecundity and host-feeding were highest at 20°C (170.48 eggs and 32.33 hosts). Oviposition rates were optimal at higher temperatures (5.22 eggs per day at 25°C and 4.79 eggs per day at 30°C) and were dependent on female age. In contrast, host-feeding rates for a given temperature did not depend on age. Generation time decreased with increasing temperatures from 68.05 days at 15°C to 12.19 days at 30°C. Net reproduction peaked at 20°C (68.86 viable females per female). Intrinsic rate of increase doubled from 15°C (0.059 females per female per day) to 20°C (0.127 females per female per day) and almost doubled again from 20 to 30°C (0.210 females per female per day). Given these parameters, C. sp. near lyncus could perform optimally in the area occupied by P. citrella in the Mediterranean region. 相似文献
