功能化磁性纳米粒子在固定化酶研究中的应用

酶是高效的生物催化剂,在生物技术领域有广泛的应用。然而,不可再生催化的高成本和酶的有效成分分离回收,是实现大规模工业化应用需要解决的关键问题。磁性纳米粒子(magnetic nanoparticles,MNPs)具有优异的磁回收性质。通过设计和制备功能化MNPs作为固定化酶的多功能载体,是解决这一问题的有效途径之一,可为酶的工业化大规模应用提供条件。近年来,功能化磁性纳米粒子在酶的固定化领域基于载体性质、固定化方法和应用有广泛研究。文中重点介绍了近年来各种功能化磁性纳米载体,特别是Fe3O4纳米粒子,在固定化酶中的应用。根据功能化试剂的差异分类,实例讨论了不同功能化修饰的磁性纳米载体对酶的固定化,包括硅烷修饰的磁性纳米载体、有机聚合物修饰的磁性纳米载体、介孔材料修饰的磁性纳米载体以及金属-有机骨架材料(metal-organic framework,MOF)修饰的磁性纳米载体。同时,结合可持续工业催化的发展要求,对磁性复合载体固定化酶的发展前景进行了展望。

Detergent Formulations for Wool Domestic Washings Containing Immobilized Enzymes

The stability of immobilized and native Esperase, a commercial serine protease, was studied by incubating the enzymes in four formulations containing the same amount of anionic and non-ionic surfactants. The results show that the activity of the immobilized enzyme is not affected by the presence of detergents while the native enzyme lost 50% of activity after 20 min of incubation in these four formulations. The washing performance of the detergents prepared with the immobilized Esperase was studied on cotton and wool fabric samples stained with human blood and egg yolk, using as control the detergent containing native Esperase. The best stain removal for cotton samples stained with human blood was achieved using the detergent with immobilized Esperase. Several physical tests confirmed that wool keratin was not degraded by the immobilized Esperase, validating the ability to use formulated detergents containing this immobilized enzyme for safe wool domestic washing.     

Comparative Immunological Studies of Two Pseudomonas Enzymes

Crystalline preparations of muconate lactonizing enzyme and muconolactone isomerase, two inducible enzymes that catalyze successive steps in the catechol branch of the beta-ketoadipate pathway, were used to prepare antisera. Both enzymes were isolated from a strain of Pseudomonas putida biotype A. The antisera did not cross-react with enzymes of the same bacterial strain that catalyze the chemically analogous steps in the protocatechuate branch of the beta-ketoadipate pathway, carboxymuconate lactonizing enzyme and carboxymuconolactone decarboxylase. The antisera gave heterologous cross-reactions of varying intensities with the muconate lactonizing enzymes and muconolactone isomerases of P. putida biotype B, P. aeruginosa, P. stutzeri, and all biotypes of P. fluorescens, but did not cross-react with the isofunctional enzymes of P. acidovorans, of P. multivorans, and of two bacterial species that belong to other genera. The evolutionary and taxonomic implications of the findings are discussed.     

Stabilization of Immobilized Enzymes Against Water-Soluble Organic Cosolvents and Generation of Hyper-Hydrophilic Micro-Environments Surrounding Enzyme Molecules

Enzymes usually undergo rapid inactivation in the presence of organic media. In some cases, the mechanism is quite simple. For example, when an enzyme, fully dispersed and immobilized inside porous supports, is inactivated, at neutral p^H and moderate temperature, in the presence of medium-high concentrations of water-miscible organic cosolvents, the unique cause of inactivation is the interaction of the enzyme with cosolvent molecules and the only inactivating effect is the promotion of conformational changes on enzyme structure.

On this basis, two distinct strategies for stabilization of enzymes against organic solvents are proposed:

a. reduction of the causes of inactivation: generation of hyper-hydrophilic micro-environments having a very open structure and fully surrounding every enzyme molecule;

b. reduction of the effects of inactivation: “rigidification of enzymes” via multipoint covalent immobilization.

By using penicillin G acylase (PGA) as a model enzyme, both strategies have been evaluated and compared. Both stabilizing strategies had significant effects. In this case, hydrophilization of the enzyme nano-environment was found to be more effective than rigidification of the enzyme via multipoint covalent attachment. The combined effect of both stabilizing strategies was also tested: multipoint covalently immobilized enzyme molecules were completely surrounded by hyper-hydrophilic microenvironments. In this way, native PGA that was unstable against organic cosolvents (completely inactivated in less than 3 min in 95% dioxane) was transformed into a very stable immobilized derivative (preserving more than 80% of activity after 40 days under the same conditions).     

Interaction and Modulation of Two Antagonistic Cell Wall Enzymes of Mycobacteria

Bacterial cell growth and division require coordinated cell wall hydrolysis and synthesis, allowing for the removal and expansion of cell wall material. Without proper coordination, unchecked hydrolysis can result in cell lysis. How these opposing activities are simultaneously regulated is poorly understood. In Mycobacterium tuberculosis, the resuscitation-promoting factor B (RpfB), a lytic transglycosylase, interacts and synergizes with Rpf-interacting protein A (RipA), an endopeptidase, to hydrolyze peptidoglycan. However, it remains unclear what governs this synergy and how it is coordinated with cell wall synthesis. Here we identify the bifunctional peptidoglycan-synthesizing enzyme, penicillin binding protein 1 (PBP1), as a RipA-interacting protein. PBP1, like RipA, localizes both at the poles and septa of dividing cells. Depletion of the ponA1 gene, encoding PBP1 in M. smegmatis, results in a severe growth defect and abnormally shaped cells, indicating that PBP1 is necessary for viability and cell wall stability. Finally, PBP1 inhibits the synergistic hydrolysis of peptidoglycan by the RipA-RpfB complex in vitro. These data reveal a post-translational mechanism for regulating cell wall hydrolysis and synthesis through protein–protein interactions between enzymes with antagonistic functions.     

Biotransformation of Natural and Synthetic Isoflavonoids by Two Recombinant Microbial Enzymes

Isolation and synthesis of isoflavonoids has become a frequent endeavor, due to their interesting biological activities. The introduction of hydroxyl groups into isoflavonoids by the use of enzymes represents an attractive alternative to conventional chemical synthesis. In this study, the capabilities of biphenyl-2,3-dioxygenase (BphA) and biphenyl-2,3-dihydrodiol 2,3-dehydrogenase (BphB) of Burkholderia sp. strain LB400 to biotransform 14 isoflavonoids synthesized in the laboratory were investigated by using recombinant Escherichia coli strains containing plasmid vectors expressing the bphA1A2A3A4 or bphA1A2A3A4B genes of strain LB400. The use of BphA and BphB allowed us to biotransform 7-hydroxy-8-methylisoflavone and 7-hydroxyisoflavone into 7,2′,3′-trihydroxy-8-methylisoflavone and 7,3′,4′-trihydroxyisoflavone, respectively. The compound 2′-fluoro-7-hydroxy-8-methylisoflavone was dihydroxylated by BphA at ortho-fluorinated and meta positions of ring B, with concomitant dehalogenation leading to 7,2′,3′,-trihydroxy-8-methylisoflavone. Daidzein (7,4′-dihydroxyisoflavone) was biotransformed by BphA, generating 7,2′,4′-trihydroxyisoflavone after dehydration. Biotransformation products were analyzed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry and nuclear magnetic resonance techniques.
