To identify a robust NADP+ dependent formate dehydrogenase from Lactobacillus buchneri NRRL B-30929 (LbFDH) with unique biochemical properties.Results
A new NADP+ dependent formate dehydrogenase gene (fdh) was cloned from genomic DNA of L. buchneri NRRL B-30929. The recombinant construct was expressed in Escherichia coli BL21(DE3) with 6?×?histidine at the C-terminus and the purified protein obtained as a single band of approx. 44 kDa on SDS-PAGE and 90 kDa on native-PAGE. The LbFDH was highly active at acidic conditions (pH 4.8–6.2). Its optimum temperature was 60 °C and 50 °C with NADP+ and NAD+, respectively and its Tm value was 78 °C. Its activity did not decrease after incubation in a solution containing 20% of DMSO and acetonitrile for 6 h. The KM constants were 49.8, 0.12 and 1.68 mM for formate (with NADP+), NADP+ and NAD+, respectively.Conclusions
An NADP+ dependent FDH from L. buchneri NRRL B-30929 was cloned, expressed and identified with its unusual characteristics. The LbFDH can be a promising candidate for NADPH regeneration through biocatalysis requiring acidic conditions and high temperatures.2.

Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenases (G6PDs) are important enzymes widely used in bioassay and biocatalysis. In this study, we reported the cloning, expression, and enzymatic characterization of G6PDs from the thermophilic bacterium Thermoanaerobacter tengcongensis MB4 (TtG6PD). SDS-PAGE showed that purified recombinant enzyme had an apparent subunit molecular weight of 60 kDa. Kinetics assay indicated that TtG6PD preferred NADP+ (k cat/K m = 2618 mM?1 s?1, k cat = 249 s?1, K m = 0.10 ± 0.01 mM) as cofactor, although NAD+ (k cat/K m = 138 mM?1 s?1, k cat = 604 s?1, K m = 4.37 ± 0.56 mM) could also be accepted. The K m values of glucose-6-phosphate were 0.27 ± 0.07 mM and 5.08 ± 0.68 mM with NADP+ and NAD+ as cofactors, respectively. The enzyme displayed its optimum activity at pH 6.8–9.0 for NADP+ and at pH 7.0–8.6 for NAD+ while the optimal temperature was 80 °C for NADP+ and 70 °C for NAD+. This was the first observation that the NADP+-linked optimal temperature of a dual coenzyme-specific G6PD was higher than the NAD+-linked and growth (75 °C) optimal temperature, which suggested G6PD might contribute to the thermal resistance of a bacterium. The potential of TtG6PD to measure the activity of another thermophilic enzyme was demonstrated by the coupled assays for a thermophilic glucokinase. 相似文献

Background and aims
Low nitrogen negatively affects soil fertility and plant productivity. Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PDH) and Epichloë gansuensis endophytes are two factors that are associated with tolerance of Achnatherum inebrians to abiotic stress. However, the possibility that E. gansuensis interacts with G6PDH in enhancing low nitrogen tolerance of host grasses has not been examined.Methods
A. inebrians plants with (E+) and without E. gansuensis (E?) were subjected to different nitrogen concentration treatments (0.1, 1, and 7.5 mM). After 90 days, physiological studies were carried out to investigate the participation of G6PDH in the adaption of host plants to low nitrogen availability.Results
Low nitrogen retarded the growth of A. inebrians. E+ plants had higher total dry weight, chlorophyll a and b contents, net photosynthesis rate, G6PDH activity, and GSH content, while having lower plasma membrane (PM) NADPH oxidase activity, NADPH/NADP+ ratios, and MDA and H2O2 than in E? A. inebrians plants under low nitrogen concentration.Conclusions
The presence of E. gansuensis played a key role in maintaining the growth of the A. inebrians plants under low nitrogen concentration by regulating G6PDH activity and the NADPH/NADP+ ratio and improving net photosynthesis rate.5.
Ferredoxin-NAD(P)+ reductase ([EC 1.18.1.2], [EC 1.18.1.3]) from Chlorobaculum tepidum (CtFNR) is structurally homologous to the bacterial NADPH-thioredoxin reductase (TrxR), but possesses a unique C-terminal extension relative to TrxR that interacts with the isoalloxazine ring moiety of the flavin adenine dinucleotide prosthetic group. In this study, we introduce truncations to the C-terminal residues to examine their role in the reactions of CtFNR with NADP+ and NADPH by spectroscopic and kinetic analyses. The truncation of the residues from Tyr326 to Glu360 (the whole C-terminal extension region), from Phe337 to Glu360 (omitting Phe337 on the re-face of the isoalloxazine ring) and from Ser338 to Glu360 (leaving Phe337 intact) resulted in a blue-shift of the flavin absorption bands. The truncations caused a slight increase in the dissociation constant toward NADP+ and a slight decrease in the Michaelis constant toward NADPH in steady-state assays. Pre-steady-state studies of the redox reaction with NADPH demonstrated that deletions of Tyr326–Glu360 decreased the hydride transfer rate, and the amount of reduced enzyme increased at equilibrium relative to wild-type CtFNR. In contrast, the deletions of Phe337–Glu360 and Ser338–Glu360 resulted in only slight changes in the reaction kinetics and redox equilibrium. These results suggest that the C-terminal region of CtFNR is responsible for the formation and stability of charge-transfer complexes, leading to changes in redox properties and reactivity toward NADP+/NADPH. 相似文献

Optimization of process parameters for phytase production by Enterobacter sp. ACSS led to a 4.6-fold improvement in submerged fermentation, which was enhanced further in fed-batch fermentation. The purified 62 kDa monomeric phytase was optimally active at pH 2.5 and 60 °C and retained activity over a wide range of temperature (40–80 °C) and pH (2.0–6.0) with a half-life of 11.3 min at 80 °C. The kinetic parameters K m, V max, K cat, and K cat/K m of the pure phytase were 0.21 mM, 131.58 nmol mg?1 s?1, 1.64 × 103 s?1, and 7.81 × 106 M?1 s?1, respectively. The enzyme was fairly stable in the presence of pepsin under physiological conditions. It was stimulated by Ca+2, Mg+2 and Mn+2, but inhibited by Zn+2, Cu+2, Fe+2, Pb+2, Ba+2 and surfactants. The enzyme can be applied in dephytinizing animal feeds, and the baking industry. 相似文献

An extracellular polygalacturonase was isolated from 5-day culture filtrates of Thermoascus aurantiacus CBMAI-756 and purified by gel filtration and ion-exchange chromatography. The enzyme was maximally active at pH 5.5 and 60–65°C. The apparent K m with citrus pectin was 1.46 mg/ml and the V max was 2433.3 μmol/min/mg. The apparent molecular weight of the enzyme was 30 kDa. The enzyme was 100% stable at 50°C for 1 h and showed a half-life of 10 min at 60°C. Polygalacturonase was stable at pH 5.0–5.5 and maintained 33% of initial activity at pH 9.0. Metal ions, such as Zn+2, Mn+2, and Hg+2, inhibited 50, 75 and 100% of enzyme activity. The purified polygalacturonase was shown to be an endo/exo-enzyme, releasing mono, di and tri-galacturonic acids within 10 min of hydrolysis. 相似文献

Glutamate decarboxylase (GAD) is the sole enzyme that synthesizes γ-aminobutyric acid through the irreversible decarboxylation of l-glutamate. In this study, the purification and characterization of an unreported GAD from a novel strain of Enterococcus raffinosus TCCC11660 were investigated. The native GAD from E. raffinosus TCCC11660 was purified 32.3-fold with a recovery rate of 8.3%, using ultrafiltration and ammonium sulfate precipitation, followed by ion-exchange and size-exclusion chromatography. The apparent molecular weight of purified GAD, as determined by SDS-PAGE and size-exclusion chromatography was 55 and 110 kDa, respectively, suggesting that GAD exists as a dimer of identical subunits in solution. In the best sodium citrate buffer, metal ions of Mo6+ and Mg2+ had positive effects, while Cu2+, Fe2+, Zn2+ and Co2+ showed significant adverse effects on enzyme activity. The optimum pH and temperature of GAD were determined to be 4.6 and 45 °C, while the K m and V max values for the sole l-glutamate substrate were 5.26 and 3.45 μmol L?1 min?1, respectively. 相似文献

A recombinant alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) from Kangiella koreensis was purified as a 40 kDa dimer with a specific activity of 21.3 nmol min?1 mg?1, a K m of 1.8 μM, and a k cat of 1.7 min?1 for all-trans-retinal using NADH as cofactor. The enzyme showed activity for all-trans-retinol using NAD + as a cofactor. The reaction conditions for all-trans-retinol production were optimal at pH 6.5 and 60 °C, 2 g enzyme l?1, and 2,200 mg all-trans-retinal l?1 in the presence of 5 % (v/v) methanol, 1 % (w/v) hydroquinone, and 10 mM NADH. Under optimized conditions, the ADH produced 600 mg all-trans-retinol l?1 after 3 h, with a conversion yield of 27.3 % (w/w) and a productivity of 200 mg l?1 h?1. This is the first report of the characterization of a bacterial ADH for all-trans-retinal and the biotechnological production of all-trans-retinol using ADH. 相似文献

Recombinant S-adenosylhomocysteine hydrolase from Corynebacterium glutamicum (CgSAHase) was covalently bound to Eupergit® C. The maximum yield of bound protein was 91% and the catalytic efficiency was 96.9%. When the kinetic results for the immobilized enzyme were compared with those for the soluble enzyme, no decrease in the catalytic efficiency of the former was detected. Both soluble and immobilized enzymes showed similar optimum pH and temperature ranges. The reuse of immobilized CgSAHase caused a loss of synthetic activity due to NAD+ release, although the binding to the support was sufficiently strong for up to 5 cycles with 95% conversion efficiency. The immobilized enzyme was incubated every 3 cycles with 100 μM NAD+ to recover the loss of activity after 5 cycles. This maintained the activity for another 50 cycles. The purification of S-adenosylhomocysteine (SAH) provided an overall yield of 76% and 98% purity as determined by HPLC and NMR analyses. The results indicate the suitability of immobilized CgSAHase for synthesizing SAH and other important S-nucleosidylhomocysteine. 相似文献

Objective
This study was aimed at cloning and characterizing a novel malic enzyme (ME) gene of Mortierella isabellina M6-22 and identifying its relation with lipid accumulation.Methods
Mime2 was cloned from strain M6-22. Plasmid pET32aMIME2 was constructed to express ME of MIME2 in Escherichia coli BL21. After purification, the optimal pH and temperature of MIME2, as well as Km and Vmax for NADP+ were determined. The effects of EDTA or metal ions (Mn2+, Mg2+, Co2+, Cu2+, Ca2+, or Zn2+) on the enzymatic activity of MIME2 were evaluated. Besides, plasmid pRHMIME2 was created to express MIME2 in Rhodosporidium kratochvilovae YM25235, and its cell lipid content was measured by the acid-heating method. The optimal pH and temperature of MIME2 are 5.8 and 30 °C, respectively.Results
The act ivity of MIME2 was significantly increased by Mg2+, Ca2+, or Mn2+ at 0.5 mM but inhibited by Cu2+ or Zn2+ (p?<?0.05). The optimal enzymatic activity of MIME2 is 177.46 U/mg, and the Km and Vmax for NADP+ are 0.703 mM and 156.25 μg/min, respectively. Besides, Mime2 transformation significantly increased the cell lipid content in strain YM25235 (3.15?±?0.24 vs. 2.17?±?0.31 g/L, p?<?0.01).Conclusions
The novel ME gene Mime2 isolated from strain M6-22 contributes to lipid accumulation in strain YM25235.13.
Dihydrolipohyl dehydrogenase (DLD) is a FAD-dependent enzyme that catalyzes the reversible oxidation of dihydrolipoamide. Herein, we report medium optimization for the production of a recombinant DLD with NADH-dependent diaphorase activity from a strain of Bacillus sphaericus PAD-91. The DLD gene that consisted of 1413 bp was expressed in Escherichia coli BL21 (DE3), and its enzymatic properties were studied. The composition of production medium was optimized using one-variable-at-a-time method followed by response surface methodology (RSM). B. sphaericus DLD catalyzed the reduction of lipoamide by NAD+ and exhibited diaphorase activity. The molecular weight of enzyme was about 50 kDa and determined to be a monomeric protein. Recombinant diaphorase showed its optimal activity at temperature of 30 °C and pH 8.5. K m and V max values with NADH were estimated to be 0.025 mM and 275.8 U/mL, respectively. Recombinant enzyme was optimally produced in fermentation medium containing 10 g/L sucrose, 25 g/L yeast extract, 5 g/L NaCl and 0.25 g/L MgSO4. At these concentrations, the actual diaphorase activity was calculated to be 345.0 ± 4.1 U/mL. By scaling up fermentation from flask to bioreactor, enzyme activity was increased to 486.3 ± 5.5 U/mL. Briefly, a DLD with diaphorase activity from a newly isolated B. sphaericus PAD-91 was characterized and the production of recombinant enzyme was optimized using RSM technique. 相似文献

Many phytopathogenic micro-organisms such as bacteria and fungi produce pectin methylesterases (PME) during plant invasion. Plants and insects also produce PME to degrade plant cell wall. In the present study, a thermostable pectin methylesterase (CtPME) from Clostridium thermocellum belonging to family 8 carbohydrate esterase (CE8) was cloned, expressed and purified. The amino acid sequence of CtPME exhibited similarity with pectin methylesterase from Erwinia chrysanthemi with 38% identity. The gene encoding CtPME was cloned into pET28a(+) vector and expressed using Escherichia coli BL21(DE3) cells. The recombinant CtPME expressed as a soluble protein and exhibited a single band of molecular mass approximately 35.2 kDa on SDS-PAGE gels. The molecular mass, 35.5 kDa of the enzyme, was also confirmed by MALDI-TOF MS analysis. Notably, highest protein concentration (11.4 mg/mL) of CtPME was achieved in auto-induction medium, as compared with LB medium (1.5 mg/mL). CtPME showed maximum activity (18.1 U/mg) against citrus pectin with >85% methyl esterification. The optimum pH and temperature for activity of CtPME were 8.5 and 50 °C, respectively. The enzyme was stable in pH range 8.0–9.0 and thermostable between 45 and 70 °C. CtPME activity was increased by 40% by 5 mM Ca2+ or Mg2+ ions. Protein melting curve of CtPME gave a peak at 80 °C. The peak was shifted to 85 °C in the presence of 5 mM Ca2+ ions, and the addition of 5 mM EDTA shifted back the melting peak to 80 °C. CtPME can be potentially used in food and textile industry applications. 相似文献

Unbranched heterocytous cyanobacteria produce a number of serine peptidases. We have characterized several peptidases in the cell-free extracts of a true-branched N2-fixing cyanobacterium, Westiellopsis ramosa sp. nov. Upon substrate-gel zymography of intact filaments and heterocytes, five peptidase bands were resolved, whereas in vegetative cells, a single band was discernible. No band was detected in \({\text{NO}}_{3}^{ - } /{\text{NH}}_{4}^{ + }\)-grown cultures suggesting that the peptidases were present under diazotrophic conditions with much of them confined to heterocytes. Using salt precipitation and chromatography, a caseinolytic peptidase, called Wrp49, was purified which also demonstrated fibrinolytic activity. In SDS-PAGE, the purified peptidase was resolved into 17 and 27 kDa fragments. The enzyme in its native state exhibited Mr ≈ 49 kDa, and digested gelatin in a substrate gel at a corresponding position. The enzyme showed amidolytic activity on a plasmin specific substrate, D-Val-Leu-Lys p-nitroanilide. Moreover, a trypsin specific substrate, N-benzoyl-DL-Arg p-nitroanilide was hydrolyzed at an apparent Km = 0.195 mM and Vmax = 5 × 10?7 M s?1. The enzyme was stable in a wide pH and temperature range. While Ca2+ stimulated the activity; phenylmethane sulfonyl fluoride, leupeptin, EDTA and chelants were inhibitory. The activity of the EDTA-inactivated enzyme was completely restored upon adding Ca2+, suggesting that both compounds competed with each other in modulating the enzyme activity. The enzyme showed similarities with a Ca2+ stimulated subtilisin-like serine peptidase of Anabaena variabilis ATCC 29413, but also presented several unique features of metallopeptidases, such as the chelant’s response. Moreover, the N-terminal sequence (MTVENLARTGVGPGWR) did not match with any of the known peptidases. 相似文献

Prolyl aminopeptidases are specific exopeptidases that catalyze the hydrolysis of the N-terminus proline residue of peptides and proteins. In the present study, the prolyl aminopeptidase gene (pap) from Aspergillus oryzae JN-412 was optimized through the codon usage of Pichia pastoris. Both the native and optimized pap genes were inserted into the expression vector pPIC9 K and were successfully expressed in P. pastoris. Additionally, the activity of the intracellular enzyme expressed by the recombinant optimized pap gene reached 61.26 U mL?1, an activity that is 2.1-fold higher than that of the native gene. The recombinant enzyme was purified by one-step elution through Ni-affinity chromatography. The optimal temperature and pH of the purified PAP were 60 °C and 7.5, respectively. Additionally, the recombinant PAP was recovered at a yield greater than 65 % at an extremely broad range of pH values from 6 to 10 after treatment at 50 °C for 6 h. The molecular weight of the recombinant PAP decreased from 50 kDa to 48 kDa after treatment with a deglycosylation enzyme, indicating that the recombinant PAP was completely glycosylated. The glycosylated PAP exhibited high thermo-stability. Half of the activity remained after incubation at 50 °C for 50 h, whereas the remaining activity of PAP expressed in E. coli was only 10 % after incubation at 50 °C for 1 h. PAP could be activated by the appropriate salt concentration and exhibited salt tolerance against NaCl at a concentration up to 5 mol L?1. 相似文献

Alcaligenes faecalis strain NR has the capability of simultaneous ammonium and organic carbon removal under sole aerobic conditions. The growth and substrate removal characteristics of A. faecalis strain NR were studied and appropriate kinetic models were developed. The maximum substrate removal rate of NH4 +-N and TOC were determined as 2.27 mg NH4 +-N/L/h and 30.00 mg TOC/L/h, respectively with initial NH4 +-N = 80 mg/L and TOC = 800 mg/L. Single-substrate models and double-substrate models based on Monod, Contois, Moser and Teissier were employed to describe the bioprocess kinetic coefficients. As a result, two double-substrate models, Teissier-Contois and Contois-Contois, were considered to be appropriate to model growth kinetics with both NH4 +-N and TOC as limiting substrates. The kinetic constants of maximum growth rate (μ max) and half-saturation constant (K S and B S) were obtained by solving multiple equations with regression. This work can be used to further understand and predict the performance of heterotrophic nitrifiers, and thus provides specific guidance of these functional strains in practical wastewater treatment process. 相似文献

Objective
To develop a safe and effective oral vaccine against Helicobacter pylori using its HpaA protein expressed in Lactococcus lactis.Results
The gene encoding HpaA was obtained by PCR and ligated to pNZ8110-lysM following digestion with NaeI + SphI. The recombinant plasmid was transferred into E. coli for multiplication, and then into L. lactis. The recombinant L. lactis was induced to express HpaA, resulting in two products of 29 and 25 kDa, both of which yielded positive immunoreaction with mouse antisera against H. pylori, as confirmed by immunoblot assays. The 29 kDa product constituted 12% of the cell lysates. Oral inoculation with the engineered L. lactis evoked significantly elevated serum IgG level in mice (P < 0.05).Conclusions
A novel engineered L. lactis strain was developed that efficiently produces whole HpaA protein with desired antigenicity and potent immunogenicity. It provides a basis for approaches to L. lactis-delivered anti-H. pylori vaccination.19.
Background
Starch is one of the most abundant organic polysaccharides available for the production of bio-ethanol as an alternative transport fuel. Cost-effective utilisation of starch requires consolidated bioprocessing (CBP) where a single microorganism can produce the enzymes required for hydrolysis of starch, and also convert the glucose monomers to ethanol.Results
The Aspergillus tubingensis T8.4 α-amylase (amyA) and glucoamylase (glaA) genes were cloned and expressed in the laboratory strain Saccharomyces cerevisiae Y294 and the semi-industrial strain, S. cerevisiae Mnuα1. The recombinant AmyA and GlaA displayed protein sizes of 110–150 kDa and 90 kDa, respectively, suggesting significant glycosylation in S. cerevisiae. The Mnuα1[AmyA-GlaA] and Y294[AmyA-GlaA] strains were able to utilise 20 g l-1 raw corn starch as sole carbohydrate source, with ethanol titers of 9.03 and 6.67 g l-1 (0.038 and 0.028 g l-1 h-1), respectively, after 10 days. With a substrate load of 200 g l-1 raw corn starch, Mnuα1[AmyA-GlaA] yielded 70.07 g l-1 ethanol (0.58 g l-1 h-1) after 120 h of fermentation, whereas Y294[AmyA-GlaA] was less efficient at 43.33 g l-1 ethanol (0.36 g l-1 h-1).Conclusions
In a semi-industrial amylolytic S. cerevisiae strain expressing the A. tubingensis α-amylase and glucoamylase genes, 200 g l-1 raw starch was completely hydrolysed (saccharified) in 120 hours with 74% converted to released sugars plus fermentation products and the remainder presumably to biomass. The single-step conversion of raw starch represents significant progress towards the realisation of CBP without the need for any heat pretreatment. Furthermore, the amylases were produced and secreted by the host strain, thus circumventing the need for exogenous amylases.20.

Transgenic hairy roots of Datura spp., established using strain A4 of Agrobacterium rhizogenes, are genetically stable and produce high levels of tropane alkaloids. To increase biomass and tropane alkaloid content of this plant tissue, four Pseudomonas strains, Pseudomonas fluorescens P64, P66, C7R12, and Pseudomonas putida PP01 were assayed as biotic elicitors on transgenic hairy roots of Datura stramonium, Datura tatula, and Datura innoxia. Alkaloids were extracted from dried biomass, and hyoscyamine and scopolamine were quantified using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry analysis. D. stramonium and D. innoxia biomass production was stimulated by all Pseudomonas spp. strains after a 5-d treatment. All strains of P. fluorescens increased hyoscyamine yields compared to untreated cultures after both 5 and 10 d of treatment. Hyoscyamine yields were highest in D. tatula cultures exposed to a 5-d treatment with C7R12 (16.633 + 0.456 mg g?1 dry weight, a 431% increase) although the highest yield increases compared to the control were observed in D. stramonium cultures exposed to strains P64 (511% increase) and C7R12 (583% increase) for 10 d. D. innoxia showed the highest scopolamine yields after elicitation with P. fluorescens strains P64 for 5 d (0.653 + 0.021 mg g?1 dry weight, a 265% increase) and P66 for 5 and 10 d (5 d, 0.754 + 0.0.031 mg g?1 dry weight, a 321% increase; 10 d 0.634 + 0.046 mg g?1 dry weight, a 277% increase). These results show that the Pseudomonas strains studied here can positively and significantly affect biomass and the yields of hyoscyamine and scopolamine from transgenic roots of the three Datura species. 相似文献
