The tyrosinase (EC 1.14.18.1) activity of cultured B-16 mouse melanoma cells (C2M) in the stationary phase depends greatly on whether the culture medium contains glucose or galactose. The activity in medium containing galactose was about ten times that in medium containing glucose at pH 7.2. This difference in tyrosinase activity was concluded to be due to a shift of balance between synthesis and degradation of the enzyme. Experiments were conducted with stationary phase cultures in the presence of cycloheximide. The melanoma cells did not synthesize tyrosinase in medium containing glucose in the stationary phase. But when they were cultured under identical conditions, except that glucose was replaced by galactose, they continued to synthesize tyrosinase. The rate of synthesis in medium containing galactose at pH 6.3 was one third of that in the same medium at about pH 7, in which the increase in specific activity of tyrosinase per day was about 30 nmoles/mg cell protein per hr. The rate of degradation of the enzyme was practically the same in medium containing glucose as in medium containing galactose, and largely depended on the pH of the culture medium. At pH 6.3, the half-life was about one third of that at pH 7.2, where it was about 1.8 days. The degradation at acidic pH values was much reduced by ammonium salt and was strongly inhibited by the protease inhibitor, leupeptin. 相似文献

Under specific conditions utilized, Eagle's minimum essential medium containing “substantially glucose-free” galactose instead of glucose supported the growth of every cell culture tested with the exception of embryonic cells. Growth of various primary kidney cultures in galactose-EMEM was greater or, at least, equal to that obtained with the same medium containing glucose. Cell lines of non-human origin showed extensive growth in galactose-EMEM and were further stimulated by supplemental pyruvate. Only limited, if any, growth of human cell lines occurred in galactose-EMEM under routine conditions of culture. The growth response of these cells was greatly increased and approached that with glucose if the initial pH of the galactose medium was adjusted in the acid pH range or, with WISH cells, if the galactose medium was supplemented with pyruvate. 相似文献

Galactose-nonfermenting (Gal-) Streptococcus thermophilus TS2 releases galactose into the extracellular medium when grown in medium containing excess lactose. Starved and de-energized Gal- cells, however, could be loaded with galactose to levels approximately equal to the extracellular concentration (0 to 50 mM). When loaded cells were separated from the medium and resuspended in fresh broth containing 5 mM lactose, galactose efflux occurred. De-energized, galactose-loaded cells, resuspended in buffer or medium, accumulated [14C]lactose at a greater rate and to significantly higher intracellular concentrations than unloaded cells. Uptake of lactose by loaded cells was inhibited more than that by unloaded cells in the presence of extracellular galactose, indicating that a galactose gradient was involved in the exchange system. When de-energized, galactose-loaded cells were resuspended in carbohydrate-free medium at pH 6.7, a proton motive force (Δp) of 86 to 90 mV was formed, whereas de-energized, nonloaded cells maintained a Δp of about 56 mV. However, uptake of lactose by loaded cells occurred when the proton motive force was abolished by the addition of an uncoupler or in the presence of a proton-translocating ATPase inhibitor. These results support the hypothesis that galactose efflux in Gal-S. thermophilus is electrogenic and that the exchange reaction (lactose uptake and galactose efflux) probably occurs via an antiporter system. 相似文献

The pH range for optimal growth of WI-38 in Eagle's minimum essential medium varies with the carbohydrate utilized. Growth with glucose occurred only in the pH range 6.8–7.4. Glucose-free galactose supported growth only if the pH of the medium was adjusted to 6.4–6.8. Supplementing the galactose medium with pyruvate extended the pH range for growth to 7.4. The addition of 0.01% glucose to the galactose medium increased growth at pH 7.0–7.4, reduced growth at pH 6.8, and completely inhibited growth at pH 6.6. This toxic effect of glucose under conditions impairing glycolysis was considered to be a contributing factor to the post-confluent growth rate decline associated with “contact inhibition.” 相似文献

The secretion of killer toxins by some strains of yeasts is a phenomenon of significant industrial importance. The activity of a recently discovered Kluyveromyces lactis killer strain against a sensitive Saccharomyces cerevisiae strain was determined on peptone-yeast extract-nutrient agar plates containing as the carbon source glucose, fructose, galactose, maltose, or glycerol at pH 4.5 or 6.5. Enhanced activity (50 to 90% increase) was found at pH 6.5, particularly on the plates containing galactose, maltose, or glycerol, although production of the toxin in liquid medium was not significantly different with either glucose or galactose as the carbon source. Results indicated that the action of the K. lactis toxin was not mediated by catabolite repression in the sensitive strain. Sensitivities of different haploid and polyploid Saccharomyces yeasts to the two different killer yeasts S. cerevisiae (RNA-plasmid-coded toxin) and K. lactis (DNA-plasmid-coded toxin) were tested. Three industrial polyploid yeasts sensitive to the S. cerevisiae killer yeast were resistant to the K. lactis killer yeast. The S. cerevisiae killer strain itself, however, was sensitive to the K. lactis killer yeast. 相似文献

β-Galactosidase was isolated from the cell-free extracts ofLactobacillus crispatus strain ATCC 33820 and the effects of temperature, pH, sugars and monovalent and divalent cations on the activity of the enzyme
were examined.L. crispatus produced the maximum amount of enzyme when grown in MRS medium containing galactose (as carbon source) at 37°C and pH 6.5
for 2 d, addition of glucose repressing enzyme production. Addition of lactose to the growth medium containing galactose inhibited
the enzyme synthesis. The enzyme was active between 20 and 60°C and in the pH range of 4–9. However, the optimum enzyme activity
was at 45°C and pH 6.5. The enzyme was stable up to 45°C when incubated at various temperatures for 15 min at pH 6.5. When
the enzyme was exposed to various pH values at 45°C for 1 h, it retained the original activity over the pH range of 6.0–7.0.
Presence of divalent cations, such as Fe2+ and Mn2+, in the reaction mixture increased enzyme activity, whereas Zn2+ was inhibitory. TheK
m was 1.16 mmol/L for 2-nitrophenyl-β-d-galactopyranose and 14.2 mmol/L for lactose. 相似文献

The ability of Klebsiella oxytoca NRRL-B199 to use either lactose or the mixture of glucose and galactose as substrate for the production of 2,3-butanediol was studied in batch fermentations with different conditions of aeration and pH. 2,3-butanediol was undetected, or present in minute concentration in the fermentation broths with lactose, while it was the main product from glucose+galactose with final concentrations of up to 18.8 g/l in media at pH 6.0. Under conditions optimal for 2,3-butanediol synthesis, when aeration limited growth, the rate of biomass growth was more tightly related to the aeration rate in lactose medium than in glucose+galactose medium. These relations suggest that the growth rate is very low on lactose but still considerable on glucose+galactose when aeration rate tends toward zero. Correspondingly, the metabolism is more oxidative in the former medium, yielding mainly acetate as product.Abbreviations CDW

When Corticum rolfsii was grown in a medium containing bran extract under aerobic conditions, it secreted alpha-D-galactosidase and beta-D-galactosidase into the culture fluid. Pectin also stimulated the production of these enzymes, whereas galactose, glucose, and sucrose stimulated their production to a lesser degree. C. rolfsii produced greater amounts of both enzymes than Aspergillus niger. Both galactosidases in the culture medium hydrolyzed alpha- and beta-p-nitrophenyl-D-galactosides as well as lactose, stachyose, melibiose, and raffinose. Both exhibited optimal activity at pH 2 to 4 and were quite stable under acidic conditions. alpha-Galactosidase was separated from beta-galactosidase by column chromatography. 相似文献

A bacterium that was isolated from soil and identified as Bacillus circulans was found to produce a highly viscous extracellular polysaccharide when it was grown aerobically in a medium containing glucose as a sole source of carbon. The product was characterized by TLC and GC analyses as a novel heteropolysaccharide consisted of rhamnose, mannose, galactose, and mannuronic acid as sugar components. A maximal yield of polysaccharide reached about 2 g/liter by jar-fermentor culture at 30°C for 48 hr with a medium containing 1% glucose, 0.05% asparagine, 0.005% yeast extract, and small amounts of inorganic salts. Some culture conditions for the production of polysaccharide were investigated with flask culture; an optimal production was attained with a medium containing 0.1–1 % glucose and 0.01–0.05% asparagine, pH 7–8, at 30°C under aerobic conditions. 相似文献

We developed a chemically defined medium (CDM) containing lactose or glucose as the carbon source that supports growth and exopolysaccharide (EPS) production of two strains of Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus. The factors found to affect EPS production in this medium were oxygen, pH, temperature, and medium constituents, such as orotic acid and the carbon source. EPS production was greatest during the stationary phase. Composition analysis of EPS isolated at different growth phases and produced under different fermentation conditions (varying carbon source or pH) revealed that the component sugars were the same. The EPS from strain L. delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus CNRZ 1187 contained galactose and glucose, and that of strain L. delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus CNRZ 416 contained galactose, glucose, and rhamnose. However, the relative proportions of the individual monosaccharides differed, suggesting that repeating unit structures can vary according to specific medium alterations. Under pH-controlled fermentation conditions, L. delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus strains produced as much EPS in the CDM as in milk. Furthermore, the relative proportions of individual monosaccharides of EPS produced in pH-controlled CDM or in milk were very similar. The CDM we developed may be a useful model and an alternative to milk in studies of EPS production. 相似文献

Growth of galactose-adapted cells of Streptococcus lactis ML(3) in a medium containing a mixture of glucose, galactose, and lactose was characterized initially by the simultaneous metabolism of glucose and lactose. Galactose was not significantly utilized until the latter sugars had been exhausted from the medium. The addition of glucose or lactose to a culture of S. lactis ML(3) growing exponentially on galactose caused immediate inhibition of galactose utilization and an increase in growth rate, concomitant with the preferential metabolism of the added sugar. Under nongrowing conditions, cells of S. lactis ML(3) grown previously on galactose metabolized the three separate sugars equally rapidly. However, cells suspended in buffer containing a mixture of glucose plus galactose or lactose plus galactose again consumed glucose or lactose preferentially. The rate of galactose metabolism was reduced by approximately 95% in the presence of the inhibitory sugar, but the maximum rate of metabolism was resumed upon exhaustion of glucose or lactose from the system. When presented with a mixture of glucose and lactose, the resting cells metabolized both sugars simultaneously. Lactose, glucose, and a non-metabolizable glucose analog (2-deoxy-d-glucose) prevented the phosphoenolpyruvate-dependent uptake of thiomethyl-beta-d-galactopyranoside (TMG), but the accumulation of TMG, like galactose metabolism, commenced immediately upon exhaustion of the metabolizable sugars from the medium. Growth of galactose-adapted cells of the lactose-defective variant S. lactis 7962 in the triple-sugar medium was characterized by the sequential metabolism of glucose, galactose, and lactose. Growth of S. lactis ML(3) and 7962 in the triple-sugar medium occurred without apparent diauxie, and for each strain the patterns of sequential sugar metabolism under growing and nongrowing conditions were identical. Fine control of the activities of preexisting enzyme systems by catabolite inhibition may afford a satisfactory explanation for the observed sequential utilization of sugars by these two organisms. 相似文献

Phycomyces blakesleeanus sporangiospores responded differently to activation by physical and chemical stimuli. Spores that were physically (heat shock)
activated or chemically (ammonium acetate) activated germinated and grew at pH 4.5 with the hexoses glucose, fructose, galactose,
andN-acetylglucosamine, and with glycerol and amino acids. Under these conditions, physically activated spores showed a lower,
although significant growth with the hexoses fructose, galactose,N-acetylglucosamine and with glycerol. On the other hand, physically activated spores incubated at alkaline pH (pH 7.3) required
glucose to germinate; a requirement not observed with chemically activated spores, which showed significant growth in the
other hexoses tested. Both physically and chemically activated spores incubated at pH 7.3 were unable to germinate and grow
with amino acids and glycerol. These results suggest that there are different targets for activation of the spores by physical
and chemical treatments. The levels of the fermentative enzymes alcohol dehydrogenase and lactate dehydrogenase and of the
oxidative enzyme NAD+-isocitrate dehydrogenase were higher in cells grown at pH 4.5 in medium containing glucose; however, alcohol dehydrogenase
and lactate dehydrogenase appear not to be affected by a change in the pH of the growth medium. 相似文献

In Saccharomyces cerevisiae the cellular content of cytochrome P-450 was investigated and shown to be related to the growth phase of aerobic cultures when glucose was the carbon source. When grown on glucose medium the log-phase cells of the diploid strain D5 contained about 9× more cytochrome P-450 than log-phase cells of the diploid strain D4. The D4 cells grown on medium containing glucose contained about 10× more cytochrome P-450 than D4 cell grown on medium containing galactose as carbon source. Cells of strain D4, harvested from log-phase cultures grown on glucose, were capable of metabolizing aflatoxin B1, dimethylnitrosamine, β-naphthylamine, ethyl carbamate, cyclophosphamide and dimethylsulphoxide to products active genetically in the same cells. The metabolism of the compounds tested was attributed to cyctochrome P-450-dependent mixed-function oxidation since genetic activity was high in log cells grown on medium containing glucose but negligible in log cells grown on medium containing galactose. However, aflatoxin B1 differed from the other promutagens tested since the genetic activity of this compound in cells grown on galactose medium was similar to the activity in cells grown on glucose medium. This result is discussed in relation to enzyme systems which could metabolize aflatoxin B1. The results of treating log-phase cells of the strain D5, grown on medium containing glucose, with aflatoxin B1 and dimethylnitrosamine are presented and compared with the results from the strain D4. 相似文献

The tyrosinase (EC 1.14.18.1) activity of cultured mouse melanoma cells B16 in the stationary phase of growth, depends greatly on the pH of the medium and the kind of sugar present. The enzyme activity of a homogenate of cells grown at pH 7.2 in Eagles's MEM supplemented with 10% new born calf serum and con taining galactose in place of glucose, was about ten times that of a homogenate of cells cultured at pH 6.3 in the same medium. The tyrosinase activity changed reversibly on changing the pH of the culture medium. When cultured at a constant pH of 7.2, cells grown with 1 mM galactose had about five times higher tyrosinase activity than cells grown with 1 mM glucose. Only a small amount of lactate accumulated in cultures with glucose and it had little effect on the enzyme activity. These two findings explain the very low tyrosinase activity of cells cultured in medium with 5 mM glucose: the low activity is due to the presence of glucose and to the low pH resulting from conversion of glucose to lactic acid. 相似文献

The combined effects of carbohydrates and glutamine were investigated in diploid strains of normal human skin fibroblasts cultured for 21 days under eight different culture conditions: hexose-free medium or medium containing D-glucose, D-galactose, or D-fructose, with or without added glutamine. Cell growth, hexose consumption, lactate production, intracellular glycogen content and extracellular amino acid levels were measured every third to fourth day. In the presence of glutamine, cells reached a higher saturation density in fructose medium than in glucose or galactose medium but per cell consumption of fructose and galactose was much less than that of glucose. Consumption of all three carbohydrates per unit cell growth exhibited three distinct phases: Days 1-3, 3-10, and 10-20, respectively. In the absence of glutamine the rate of cell growth was not altered in glucose or galactose medium, but slowed down considerably in fructose medium. Glutamine deprivation also led to changes in hexose consumption. In hexose-free media the cell growth rate at first was very slow, but rose after 2 or 3 weeks of culture. The levels of extracellular nonessential amino acids varied according to medium and growth phase. One of the most exciting findings was that human fibroblasts are able to maintain a slight excess of glutamine in all media not supplemented with glutamine and, more surprisingly, to synthesize it in a medium containing galactose and glutamine. 相似文献

Zooglans with altered sugar composition were synthesized by Zoogloea ramigera by varying the glucose concentration and initial medium pH. The relative mol % of the sugar components, glucose and galactose, in the exopolymer made with 2% (w/v) glucose as the carbon source was 66 and 34%, respectively. By varying the glucose concentration and initial medium pH, the mol % ratios of glucose to galactose in zooglan ranged from 70 : 30 to 58 : 42. Also, glucose analogs, 3- O-methyl-D-glucose, 2-amino-2-deoxy-D-glucose, and 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-D-glucose, were used as a co-substrate with glucose to produce modified zooglans. The mol % ratios of glucose to galactose in exopolymers produced by co-feeding glucose analogs ranged from 70 : 30 to 9 : 91. 相似文献

Sporulation of Streptomyces venezuelae in submerged cultures 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Shaken cultures of Streptomyces venezuelae ISP5230 in minimal medium with galactose and ammonium sulphate as carbon and nitrogen sources, respectively, showed extensive sporulation after 72 h incubation at 37 degrees C. The spores formed in these cultures resembled aerial spores in their characteristics. The ability of the spores to withstand lysozyme treatment was used to monitor the progress of sporulation in cultures and to determine the physiological requirements for sporulation. In media containing ammonium sulphate as the nitrogen source, galactose was the best of six carbon sources tested. With galactose S. venezuelae ISP5230 sporulated when supplied with any of several nitrogen sources; however, an excess of nitrogen source was inhibitory. In cultures containing galactose and ammonium sulphate, sporulation was suppressed by a peptone supplement. The onset of sporulation was accompanied by a drop in intracellular GTP content. When decoyinine, an inhibitor of GMP synthase, was added to a medium containing starch and ammonium sulphate, a slight increase in sporulation was seen after 2 d. The suppression of sporulation by peptone in liquid or agar cultures was not reversed by addition of decoyinine. A hypersporulating mutant of S. venezuelae ISP5230 was altered in its ability to assimilate sugars. In cultures containing glucose the mutant sporulated more profusely than did the wild-type and did not acidify the medium to the same extent. However, the suppressive effect of glucose on sporulation was not merely a secondary result of acid accumulation. 相似文献
