The gene loci fcs, encoding feruloyl coenzyme A (feruloyl-CoA) synthetase, ech, encoding enoyl-CoA hydratase/aldolase, and aat, encoding β-ketothiolase, which are involved in the catabolism of ferulic acid and eugenol in Pseudomonas sp. strain HR199 (DSM7063), were localized on a DNA region covered by two EcoRI fragments (E230 and E94), which were recently cloned from a Pseudomonas sp. strain HR199 genomic library in the cosmid pVK100. The nucleotide sequences of parts of fragments E230 and E94 were determined, revealing the arrangement of the aforementioned genes. To confirm the function of the structural genes fcs and ech, they were cloned and expressed in Escherichia coli. Recombinant strains harboring both genes were able to transform ferulic acid to vanillin. The feruloyl-CoA synthetase and enoyl-CoA hydratase/aldolase activities of the fcs and ech gene products, respectively, were confirmed by photometric assays and by high-pressure liquid chromatography analysis. To prove the essential involvement of the fcs, ech, and aat genes in the catabolism of ferulic acid and eugenol in Pseudomonas sp. strain HR199, these genes were inactivated separately by the insertion of omega elements. The corresponding mutants Pseudomonas sp. strain HRfcsΩGm and Pseudomonas sp. strain HRechΩKm were not able to grow on ferulic acid or on eugenol, whereas the mutant Pseudomonas sp. strain HRaatΩKm exhibited a ferulic acid- and eugenol-positive phenotype like the wild type. In conclusion, the degradation pathway of eugenol via ferulic acid and the necessity of the activation of ferulic acid to the corresponding CoA ester was confirmed. The aat gene product was shown not to be involved in this catabolism, thus excluding a β-oxidation analogous degradation pathway for ferulic acid. Moreover, the function of the ech gene product as an enoyl-CoA hydratase/aldolase suggests that ferulic acid degradation in Pseudomonas sp. strain HR199 proceeds via a similar pathway to that recently described for Pseudomonas fluorescens AN103. 相似文献

the native enzyme was 104,000 by gel filtration, and SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis showed that the enzyme consisted of two subunits with an identical molecular weight of 52,000. The optimum pH of the reaction was 8.0. The Km values for 6-phosphogluconate and NADP were 3.6×10?5m and 1.3 × 10?5m, respectively. The enzyme showed no Mg2𠀫 requirement for the activity, but was activated by Mn2𠀫 and Ca2𠀫. The enzyme was inhibited by sulfhydryl reagents, indicating that a sulfhydryl group may be involved in the active site of the enzyme. The enzyme was also inhibited by NADPH2, ATP, and the intermediates formed during photosynthesis. The substrate 6-phosphogluconate and cofactor NADP partially protected the enzyme from inactivation. The enzyme had enzymological and physicochemical properties similar to enzymes isolated from other sources. 相似文献

Germination and growth inhibiting activities of surface lipids from 54 Nicotiana species were investigated. Almost half of the extracts were found to have such activities. Among them the surface lipids of N. glutinosa, N. bigelovii, N. sylvestris, N. repanda, N. stocktonii, and N. nesophila were rather strong. Guided by a bioassay using the inhibitory effects on tobacco seed germination and growth, two types of sucrose esters were isolated and identified from the surface lipids of N. glutinosa. The ester positions of each compounds were identified by 13C-NMR using deuterium exchange of HO ? OD. The structures were (2,3,4-tri-O-acyl)-α-d-glucopyranosyl)-(3-O-acetyl)-β-d-fructofuranqside (M1) and (2,3,4-tri-O-acyl)-α-d-glucopyranosyl-β-d-fructofuranoside (M2). The main fatty acids of M1 and M2 were acetic (only in M1), propionic, 2-methylbutyric, 4-methylpentanoic, 4-methylhexanoic, 5-methylhexanoic, and octanoic acids. These sucrose esters obtained from N. glutinosa inhibited not only tobacco seed germination and growth but also other plants’ growth. 相似文献

A low-specificity l-threonine aldolase (l-TA) gene from Pseudomonas sp. strain NCIMB 10558 was cloned and sequenced. The gene contains an open reading frame consisting of 1,041 nucleotides corresponding to 346 amino acid residues. The gene was overexpressed in Escherichia coli cells, and the recombinant enzyme was purified and characterized. The enzyme, requiring pyridoxal 5′-phosphate as a coenzyme, is strictly l specific at the α position, whereas it cannot distinguish between threo and erythro forms at the β position. In addition to threonine, the enzyme also acts on various other l-β-hydroxy-α-amino acids, including l-β-3,4-dihydroxyphenylserine, l-β-3,4-methylenedioxyphenylserine, and l-β-phenylserine. The predicted amino acid sequence displayed less than 20% identity with those of low-specificity l-TA from Saccharomyces cerevisiae, l-allo-threonine aldolase from Aeromonas jandaei, and four relevant hypothetical proteins from other microorganisms. However, lysine 207 of low-specificity l-TA from Pseudomonas sp. strain NCIMB 10558 was found to be completely conserved in these proteins. Site-directed mutagenesis experiments showed that substitution of Lys207 with Ala or Arg resulted in a significant loss of enzyme activity, with the corresponding disappearance of the absorption maximum at 420 nm. Thus, Lys207 of the l-TA probably functions as an essential catalytic residue, forming an internal Schiff base with the pyridoxal 5′-phosphate of the enzyme to catalyze the reversible aldol reaction.β-Hydroxy-α-amino acids constitute an important class of compounds. They are natural products in their own right and are components of a range of antibiotics, for example, cyclosporin A, lysobactin, and vancomycin (30) and bouvardin and deoxybouvardin (6). 4-Hydroxy-l-threonine is a precursor of rizobitoxine, a potent inhibitor of pyridoxal 5′-phosphate (PLP)-dependent enzymes (32). 3,4,5-Trihydroxyl-l-aminopentanoic acid is a key component of polyoxins (32). l-threo-3,4-Dihydroxyphenylserine is a new drug for Parkinson’s disease therapy (13). However, the industrial production of β-hydroxy-α-amino acids has been limited to chemical synthesis processes, which need multiple steps to isolate the four isomers (l-threo form, d-threo form, l-erythro form, and d-erythro form). Threonine aldolase (EC 4.1.2.5), which stereospecifically catalyzes the retro-aldol cleavage of threonine, is a potentially useful catalyst for the synthesis of substituted amino acids from aldehyde and glycine (27, 31, 32).Two different types of threonine aldolases are known so far. l-allo-Threonine aldolase (l-allo-TA), isolated and purified from Aeromonas jandaei DK-39 (8), stereospecifically catalyzes the reversible interconversion of l-allo-threonine and glycine. Low-specificity l-threonine aldolase (l-TA) catalyzes the cleavage of both l-threonine and l-allo-threonine to glycine and acetaldehyde, as well as the reverse reaction, aldol condensation. The enzymes have been purified and characterized from Candida humicola (9, 34) and Saccharomyces cerevisiae (12). Low-specificity l-TA activity has also been shown to exist in mammals (7, 23, 26) and a variety of other microbial species (2, 4, 17, 35). The enzyme is physiologically important for the synthesis of cellular glycine in yeast (12, 15, 16). Threonine aldolases with distinct stereospecificities are ideal targets for enzymology studies on structural and functional relationships. However, information on the primary structures of threonine aldolases was limited to our recent studies (11, 12). The construction of an overproduction system for threonine aldolase will be indispensable for the industrial biosyntheses of β-hydroxy-α-amino acids.The present work focuses on the cloning, sequencing, and overexpression in Escherichia coli cells of the low-specificity l-TA gene from Pseudomonas sp. strain NCIMB 10558, the purification and characterization of the recombinant enzyme, and the identification of the active-site lysine residue of the enzyme by site-directed mutagenesis. Evidence is presented that Lys207 of low-specificity l-TA probably functions as a catalytic residue, forming an internal Schiff base with the PLP of the enzyme to catalyze the reversible aldol reaction. This is the first report showing a purified enzyme with l-β-3,4-dihydroxyphenylserine aldolase and l-β-3,4-methylenedioxyphenylserine aldolase activities, providing a new route for the industrial production of these important unnatural amino acids. 相似文献

We purified two isozymes of coniferyl alcohol dehydrogenase (CADH I and II) to homogeneity from cell-free extracts of Streptomyces sp. NL15-2K. The apparent molecular masses of CADH I and II were determined to be 143 kDa and 151 kDa respectively by gel filtration, whereas their subunit molecular masses were determined to be 35,782.2 Da and 37,597.7 Da respectively by matrix-assisted laser-desorption ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF-MS). Thus, it is probable that both isozymes are tetramers. The optimum pH and temperature for coniferyl alcohol dehydrogenase activity were pH 9.5 and 45 °C for CADH I and pH 8.5 and 40 °C for CADH II. CADH I oxidized various aromatic alcohols and allyl alcohol, and was most efficient on cinnamyl alcohol, whereas CADH II exhibited high substrate specificity for coniferyl alcohol, and showed no activity as to the other alcohols, except for cinnamyl alcohol and 3-(4-hydroxy-3-methoxyphenyl)-1-propanol. In the presence of NADH, CADH I and II reduced cinnamaldehyde and coniferyl aldehyde respectively to the corresponding alcohols. 相似文献

NAD+-dependent glycerol dehydrogenase from Cellulomonas sp. NT3060 was purified by a procedure of 10 steps involving crystallization. Dihydroxyacetone was identified as the oxidation product of glycerol with the enzyme. The purified enzyme did not lose activity on heating below 60°C. The enzyme oxidized other alcohols such as 1,2-propanediol, 2,3-butanediol and glycerol-α-monochlorohydrin, beside glycerol. The enzyme activity was inhibited by p-chloromercuribenzoate, Zn2+, Cu2+ and Cd2+. Oxidation of glyberol was activated by Na+ and reduction of dihydroxyacetone was activated by K+ at pH 7.5. 相似文献

The catechol 2,3-dioxygenase (C23O) gene in naphthalene catabolic plasmid pND6-1 of Pseudomonas sp. ND6 was cloned and sequenced. The C23O gene was consisted of 924 nucleotides and encoded a polypeptide of molecular weight 36 kDa containing 307 amino acid residues. The C23O of Pseudomonas sp. ND6 exhibited 93% and 89% identities in amino acid sequence with C23Os encoded by naphthalene catabolic plasmid NAH7 from Pseudomonas putida G7 and the chromosome of Pseudomonas stutzeri AN10 respectively. The Pseudomonas sp. ND6 C23O gene was overexpressed in Escherichia coli DH 5α using the lac promoter of pUC18, and its gene product was purified by DEAE-Sephacel and Phenyl-Sepharose CL-4B chromatography. The enzymology experiments indicated that the specific activity and thermostability of C23O from Pseudomonas sp. ND6 were better than those of C23O from Pseudomonas putida G7. 相似文献

A gene library of poly (vinyl alcohol) (PVA)-degrading Pseudomonas sp. strain VM15C was constructed in Escherichia coli with the vector pUC18. Screening of this library with a chromogenic PVA dehydrogenase assay resulted in the isolation of a clone that carries the gene (pdh) for the PVA dehydrogenase, and the entire nucleotide sequence of its structural gene was determined. The gene encodes a protein of 639 amino acid residues (68,045 Da) and in the deduced amino acid sequence, some putative functional sites, a signal sequence, a heme c-binding site, and a PQQ-binding site, were detected. The amino acid sequence showed low similarity to other types of quinoprotein dehydrogenases. PVA dehydrogenase expressed in E. coli clones required PQQ. Ca2+, and Mg2+ stimulated the activity. PVA-dependent heme c reduction occurred with exogenous PQQ in cell extracts of the E. coli clone. The PVA dehydrogenase in the E. coli clone was localized in the cytoplasm. 相似文献

Methanol dehydrogenase (MDH) and aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH) were purified to a homogenous state from Methylobacillus glycogenes, an obligate methylotroph. MDH (Mr 140,000) was composed of two different subunits (Mr 60,000 and 9,000) forming an α2β2 structure. MDH was indicated as a metalloquinoprotein containing one atom of calcium (Ca) per enzyme molecule. Binding of Ca was so tight that it was hard to remove Ca completely without denaturation of enzyme protein. A partially resolved enzyme resumed its original enzyme activity upon exogenous addition of Ca. Purified ALDH (Mr 144,000) was composed of two identical subunits of molecular mass of 72,000. ALDH was proved to be a quinoprotein in which PQQ is bound covalently. 相似文献

We found two kinds of benzonitrilases, designated benzonitrilases A and B, in a cell extract of Arthrobacter sp. strain J-1 grown on benzonitrile as a sole carbon and nitrogen source. Benzonitrilases A and B were purified approximately 409-fold and 38-fold, respectively. Purified benzonitrilase A appeared to be homogeneous according to the criteria of polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Both the enzymes hydrolyzed benzonitrile to benzoic acid and ammonia without forming benzamide as an intermediate. The molecular weights of benzonitrilases A and B were found to be 30,000 and 23,000, respectively. The subunit molecular weight of benzonitrilase A was the same as its molecular weight. The isoelectric points of benzonitrilases A and B were 4.95 and 4.80, respectively. The optimum temperature and pH, respectively, for benzonitrilase A were 40°C and 8.5, and those for benzonitrilase B were 30°C and 7.5. The Km values for benzonitrilases A and B were 6.7 mM and 4.5 mM, respectively. Both the enzymes degraded p-tolunitrile, 4-cyanopyridine, and p-chlorobenzonitrile, but they did not attack aliphatic nitriles or amides. Both the enzymes were inhibited by thiol reagents. 相似文献

The two species of 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.43) from Pseudomonas multivorans were resolved from extracts of gluconate-grown bacteria and purified to homogeneity. Each enzyme comprised between 0.1 and 0.2% of the total cellular protein. Separation of the two enzymes, one which is specific for nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate and the other which is active with nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide or nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate was facilitated by the marked difference in their respective isoelectric points, which were at pH 5.0 and 6.9. Comparison of the subunit compositions of the two enzymes indicated that they do not share common peptide chains. The enzyme active with nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide was composed of two subunits of about 40,000 molecular weight, and the nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate-specific enzyme was composed of two subunits of about 60,000 molecular weight. Immunological studies indicated that the two enzymes do not share common antigenic determinants. Reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate strongly inhibited the 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase active with nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide by decreasing its affinity for 6-phosphogluconate. Guanosine-5'-triphosphate had a similar influence on the nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate-specific 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase. These results in conjunction with other data indicating that reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate stimulates the conversion of 6-phosphogluconate to pyruvate by crude bacterial extracts suggest that in P. multivorans, the relative distribution of 6-phosphogluconate into the pentose phosphate and Entner-Doudoroff pathways might be determined by the intracellular concentrations of reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate and purine nucleotides. 相似文献

NADPH-dependent alkylaldehyde reducing enzyme, which was greatly induced by n-hexadecane, from Acinetobacter sp. strain M-1 was purified and characterized. The purified enzyme had molecular masses of 40 kDa as determined by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and 160 kDa as determined by gel filtration chromatography. The enzyme, which was shown to be highly thermostable, was most active toward n-heptanal and could use n-alkylaldehydes ranging from C2 to C14 and several substituted benzaldehydes, including the industrially important compounds cinnamyl aldehyde and anisaldehyde, as substrates. The alrA gene coding for this enzyme was cloned, and its nucleotide sequence was determined. The deduced amino acid sequence encoded by the alrA gene exhibited homology to the amino acid sequences of zinc-containing alcohol dehydrogenases from various sources. The gene could be highly expressed in Escherichia coli, and the product was purified to homogeneity by simpler procedures from the recombinant than from the original host. Our results show that this enzyme can be used for industrial bioconversion of useful alcohols and aldehydes. 相似文献

A bacterium capable of hydrolyzing carbaryl (1-naphthyl-N-methylcarbamate) was isolated from a soil enrichment. This bacterium was characterized taxonomically as a Blastobacter sp. and designated strain M501. A carbaryl hydrolase present in this strain was purified to homogeneity by protamine sulfate treatment, ammonium sulfate precipitation, and hydrophobic, anion-exchange, gel filtration, and hydroxylapatite chromatographies. The native enzyme had a molecular mass of 166,000 Da and was composed of two subunits with molecular masses of 84,000 Da. The optimum pH and temperature of the enzyme activity were 9.0 and 45°C, respectively. The enzyme was not stable at temperatures above 40°C. The purified enzyme hydrolyzed seven N-methylcarbamate insecticides and also exhibited activity against 1-naphthyl acetate and 4-nitrophenyl acetate. 相似文献

An amine dehydrogenase was purified and crystallized from the cell free extract of a Pseudomonas sp., isolated from soil by means of the enrichment technique. The crystalline enzyme gave a single band on polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and the molecular weight of the enzyme was estimated to be 100,000 by gel filtration on a Sephadex column. Upon SDS-gel electrophoresis, the enzyme was dissociated into two nonidentical subunits having molecular weights of 60,000 (dehydrogenase) and 39,000 (cytochrome c). The absorption spectrum of the enzyme showed absorption maxima at 550 nm, 524 nm, 411 nm and 280 nm, and a broad shoulder at around 350 nm, indicating that the enzyme was purified as a dehydrogenase-cytochrome c complex. The prosthetic group of the dehydrogenase was identified as covalently bound pyrroloquinoline quinone. The enzyme showed a broad substrate specificity toward various amines including aliphatic monoamines, aliphatic diamines, aromatic amines and polyamines. 相似文献

V134, a marine isolate of the Vibrio genus, was found to produce a new beta-agarase of the GH16 family. The relevant agarase gene agaV was cloned from V134 and conditionally expressed in Escherichia coli. Enzyme activity analysis revealed that the optimum temperature and pH for the purified recombinant agarase were around 40°C and 7.0. AgaV was demonstrated to be useful in two aspects: first, as an agarolytic enzyme, the purified recombinant AgaV could be employed in the recovery of DNA from agarose gels; second, as a secretion protein, AgaV was explored at the genetic level and used as a reporter in the construction of a secretion signal trap which proved to be a simple and efficient molecular tool for the selection of genes encoding secretion proteins from both gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria. 相似文献
