Regulatory properties of chorismate mutase from Corynebacterium glutamicum were studied using the dialyzed cell-free extract. The enzyme activity was strongly feedback inhibited by l-phenylalanine (90% inhibition at 0.1~1 mm) and almost completely by a pair of l-tyrosine and l-phenylalanine (each at 0.1~1 mm). The enzyme from phenylalanine auxotrophs was scarcely inhibited by l-tyrosine alone but the enzyme from a wild-type strain or a tyrosine auxotroph was weakly inhibited by l-tyrosine alone (40~50% inhibition, l-tyrosine at 1 mm). The enzyme activity was stimulated by l-tryptophan and the inhibition by l-phenylalanine alone or in the simultaneous presence of l-tyrosine was reversed by l-tryptophan. The Km value of the reaction for chorismate was 2.9 } 10?3 m. Formation of chorismate mutase was repressed by l-phenylalanine. A phenylalanine auxotrophic l-tyrosine producer, C. glutamicum 98–Tx–71, which is resistant to 3-amino-tyrosine, p-aminophenylanaine, p-fluorophenylalanine and tyrosine hydroxamate had chorismate mutase derepressed to two-fold level of the parent KY 10233. The enzyme in C. glutamicum seems to have two physiological roles; one is the control of the metabolic flow to l-phenylalanine and l-tyrosine biosynthesis and the other is the balanced partition of chorismate between l-phenylalanine-l-tyrosine biosynthesis and l-tryptophan biosynthesis. 相似文献

Homoserine dehydrogenases and aspartokinases in l-threonine- or l-threonine and l-lysine-producing mutants derived from Corynebacterium glutamicum KY 9159 (Met?) were studied with respect to the sensitivity to the inhibition by end products, l-threonine and l-lysine. The activities of homoserine dehydrogenases in the mutants which produced l-threonine or l-threonine and l-lysine were slightly less susceptible to the inhibition by l-threonine than the activity in the parent strain, KY 9159. The aspartokinases in the threonine-producing mutants, KY 10484 and KY 10230, which were resistant to α-amino-β-hydroxylvaleric acid (AHV, a threonine analog) and more sensitive to thialysine (a lysine analog) than the parent, were sensitive to the concerted feedback inhibition by l-lysine and l-threonine by about the same degree as KY 9159. The aspartokinase in an AHV- and thialysine-resistant mutant, KY 10440, which was derived from KY 10484 and produced about 14 mg/ml of l-threonine in a medium containing 10% glucose was less susceptible to the concerted feedback inhibition than KY 10484 or KY 9159, although the activity was still under the feedback control. In the parent strain, l-threonine activated aspartokinase activity in the absence of ammonium sulfate, an activator of the enzyme, but partially inhibited the activity in the presence of the salt. On the other hand, the enzyme of KY 10440 was activated by l-threonine either in the presence or in the absence of the salt. In another AHV- and thialysine-resistant mutant, KY 10251, which was derived from KY 10230 and produced both 9 mg/ml of l-threonine and 5/5 mg/ml of l-lysine, l-threonine and l-lysine simultaneously added hardly inhibited the activity of aspartokinase.Implications of these results are discussed in relation to l-threonine or l-lysine production, AHV or thialysine resistance and regulation of l-threonine biosynthesis in these mutants. 相似文献

Crystalline tyrosine phenol lyase was prepared from the cell extract of Erwinia herbicola grown in a medium supplemented with l-tyrosine. The crystalline enzyme was homogeneous by the criteria of ultracentrifugation and acrylamide gel electrophoresis. The molecular weight was determined to be approximately 259,000. The crystalline enzyme catalyzed the conversion of l-tyrosine into phenol, pyruvate and ammonia, in the presence of added pyridoxal phosphate. The enzyme also catalyzed pyruvate formation from d-tyrosine, S-methyl-l-cysteine, 3, 4-dihydroxyphenyl-l-alanine, l- and d-serine, and l- and d-cysteine, but at lower rates than from l-tyrosine. l-Phenyl-alanine, l-alanine, phenol and pyrocatechol inhibited pyruvate formation from l-tyrosine.Crystalline tyrosine phenol lyase from Erwinia herbicola is inactive in the absence of added pyridoxal phosphate. Binding of pyridoxal phosphate to the apoenzyme is accompanied by pronounced increase in absorbance at 340 and 425 mμ. The amount of pyridoxal phosphate bound to the apoenzyme was determined by equilibrium dialysis to be 2 moles per mole of enzyme. Addition of the substrate, l-tyrosine, or the competitive inhibitors, l-alanine and l-phenyl-alanine, to the holoenzyme causes appearance of a new absorption peak near 500 mμ which disappears as the substrate is decomposed but remains unchanged in the presence of the inhibitor. 相似文献

The 7-keto-8-aminopelargonic acid (KAPA) synthetase activities of cell-free extracts from various bacteria were investigated. The experiments on the substrate specificity of KAPA synthetase, using crude cell-free extracts from bacteria having high enzyme activity, showed that l-serine and pyruvic acid could replace l-alanine, but that, when the enzyme was partially purified, these compounds were not effective. Many kinds of amino acids such as l-cysteine, l-serine, d-alanine, glycine, d-histidine, and l-histidine, inhibited the enzyme activity. This inhibition was found to be competitive with l-alanine. Pyridoxal 5′-phosphate, which is a cofactor of the enzyme, also inhibited the enzyme activity at high concentrations. The repression of KAPA synthetase by biotin occurred in Bacillus subtilis and B. sphaericus but not in Micrococcus roseus and Pseudomonas fluorescens, even at a concentration of 1000 mµg per ml of biotin. 相似文献

Properties of 3-deoxy-D-arabinoheptulosonate-7-phosphate (DAHP) synthetase from Corynebacterium glutamicum were examined using the cell free extract. The optimum pH for the reaction was broad ranging from 5.5 to 7.0 and the optimum temperature was 37°C. Co2+ inhibited the enzyme activity at 20°C, whereas Co2+ apparently stimulated the enzyme activity at 37°C because the ion protected the enzyme from inactivation at 37°C. Co2+ reversed the inhibition of the enzyme activity by EDTA. The activity of DAHP synthetase was feedback inhibited only weakly by l-phenylalanine, l-tyrosine or l-tryptophan alone, but was strongly inhibited synergistically by l-phenylalanine and l-tyrosine. l-Tryptophan enhanced the inhibition by the pair of l-tyrosine and l-phenylalanine. Maximal inhibition was near 90 % in the simultaneous presence of the three amino acids. Sensitivity of the enzyme to the inhibitors was lost during the purification process of the enzyme or during the reaction at 37°C. Especially sensitivity to l-tryptophan was easily lost. Co2+ protected the enzyme from the desensitization. Mutants resistant to p-fluorophenylalanine plus l-tyrosine (or 3-aminotyrosine) had DAHP synthetase which was released from the feedback inhibition by the three amino acids. The formation of the enzyme was not affected by aromatic amino acids. 相似文献

Regulatory properties of the enzymes in l-tyrosine and l-phenyalanine terminal pathway in Corynebacterium glutamicum were investigated. Prephenate dehydrogenase was partially feedback inhibited by l-tyrosine. Prephenate dehydratase was strongly inhibited by l-phenylalanine and l-tryptophan and 100% inhibition was attained at the concentrations of 5 × 10?2mm and 10?1mm, respectively. l-Tyrosine stimulated prephenate dehydratase activity (6-fold stimulation at 1 mm) and restored the enzyme activity inhibited by l-phenylalanine or l-tryptophan. These regulations seem to give the balanced synthesis of l-tyrosine and l-phenyl-alanine. Prephenate dehydratase from C. glutamicum was stimulated by l-methionine and l-leucine similarly to the enzyme in Bacillus subtilis and moreover by l-isoleucine and l-histidine. C. glutamicum mutant No. 66, an l-phenylalanine producer resistant to p-fluorophenyl-alanine, had a prephenate dehydratase completely resistant to the inhibition by l-phenylalanine and l-tryptophan. 相似文献

Biosynthetic threonine deaminase was purified to an apparent homogeneous state from the cell extract of Proteus morganii, with an overall yield of 7.5%. The enzyme had a s020,w of 10.0 S, and the molecular weight was calculated to be approximately, 228,000. The molecular weight of a subunit of the enzyme was estimated to be 58,000 by sodium dodecyl sulfate gel electrophoresis. The enzyme seemed to have a tetrameric structure consisting of identical subunits. The enzyme had a marked yellow color with an absorption maximum at 415 nm and contained 2 mol of pyridoxal 5′-phosphate per mol. The threonine deaminase catalyzed the deamination of l-threonine, l-serine, l-cysteine and β-chloro-l-alanine. Km values for l-threonine and l-serine were 3.2 and 7.1 mm, respectively. The enzyme was not activated by AMP, ADP and ATP, but was inhibited by l-isoleucine. The Ki for l-isoleucine was 1.17 mm, and the inhibition was not recovered by l-valine. Treatment with mercuric chloride effectively protected the enzyme from inhibition by l-isoleucine. 相似文献

The properties of the tyrosinase from Pseudomonas melanogenum was investigated with the crude enzyme preparation. Optimum temperature and pH of the enzyme were 23°C and 6.8, respectively. l-Tyrosine, d-tyrosine, m-tyrosine, N-acetyl-l-tyrosine and l-DOPA were utilized as a substrate by the enzyme. The value for Km obtained were as follows: l-tyrosine 6.90 × 10?4 m, d-tyrosine 1.43 ×10?3 m and l-DOPA 9.90 × 10?4 m. The enzyme was inhibited by chelating agents of Cu2+ l-cysteine, l-homocysteine, thiourea and diethyl-dithiocarbamate and the inhibition was completely reversed by the addition of excess Cu2+ From these results it is concluded that the enzyme is a copper-containing oxidase. 相似文献

An inducible tryptophanase was crystallized from the cell extract of Proteus rettgeri grown in a medium containing l-tryptophan. The purification procedure included ammonium sulfate fractionation, heat treatment, DEAE-Sephadex and hydroxylapatite column chromatographies. Crystals were obtained from solutions of the purified enzyme by the addition of ammonium sulfate.The crystalline enzyme preparation was homogeneous by the criteria of ultracentrifugation and zone electrophoresis. The molecular weight was determined to be approximately 210,000.The crystalline enzyme catalyzed the degradation of l-tryptophan into indole, pyruvate and ammonia in the presence of added pyridoxal phosphate. The enzyme also catalyzed pyruvate formation from 5-hydroxy-l-tryptophan, 5-methyl-l-tryptophan, S-methyl-l-cysteine and l- cysteine. l-, d-Alanine, l-phenylalanine and indole inhibited pyruvate formation from these substrates. 相似文献

l-ribose isomerase (L-RI) from Cellulomonas parahominis MB426 can convert l-psicose and d-tagatose to l-allose and d-talose, respectively. Partially purified recombinant L-RI from Escherichia coli JM109 was immobilized on DIAION HPA25L resin and then utilized to produce l-allose and d-talose. Conversion reaction was performed with the reaction mixture containing 10% l-psicose or d-tagatose and immobilized L-RI at 40 °C. At equilibrium state, the yield of l-allose and d-talose was 35.0% and 13.0%, respectively. Immobilized enzyme could convert l-psicose to l-allose without remarkable decrease in the enzyme activity over 7 times use and d-tagatose to d-talose over 37 times use. After separation and concentration, the mixture solution of l-allose and d-talose was concentrated up to 70% and crystallized by keeping at 4 °C. l-Allose and d-talose crystals were collected from the syrup by filtration. The final yield was 23.0% l-allose and 7.30% d-talose that were obtained from l-psicose and d-tagatose, respectively. 相似文献

Branched chain amino acid aminotransferase was partially purified from Pseudomonas sp. by ammonium sulfate fractionation, aminohexyl-agarose and Bio-Gel A-0.5 m column chromatography.This enzyme showed different substrate specificity from those of other origins, namely lower reactivity for l-isoleucine and higher reactivity for l-methionine.Km values at pH 8.0 were calculated to be 0.3 mm for l-leucine, 0.3 mm for α-ketoglutarate, 1.1 mm for α-ketoisocaproate and 3.2 mm for l-glutamate.This enzyme was activated with β-mercaptoethanol, and this activated enzyme had different kinetic properties from unactivated enzyme, namely, Km values at pH 8.0 were calculated to be 1.2 mm for l-leucine, 0.3 mm for α-ketoglutarate.Isocaproic acid which is the substrate analog of l-leucine was competitive inhibitor for pyridoxal form of unactivated and activated enzymes, and inhibitor constants were estimated to be 6 mm and 14 mm, respectively. 相似文献

Since l-prolyl diketopiperazines, l-prolyl-l-valine anhydride and l-leucyl-l-proline anhydride, had been isolated from the culture filtrate of Streptomyces sp. S-580, the mechanism of l-prolyl diketopiperazine formation by Streptomyces has been studied. These two l-prolyl diketopiperazines were not formed from their constituent amino acids incubated with intact cell or cell free homogenate of this strain in buffered salt solution containing energy source. However, from milk casein, poly peptone or gelatin, the former two were components of the culture medium of this strain, hydrolyzed with the pure streptomyces-protease, these l-prolyl diketopiperazines were obtained (only from gelatin, glycyl-l-proline anhydride were obtained in addition to these two). Furthermore, in hydrolysis of some synthetic l-prolyl peptides with this enzyme, l-prolyl diketopiperazine formation were also studied, and as the result, glycyl-l-proline anhydride was obtained from glycyl-l-prolyl-l-leucine but no l-prolyl diketopiperazine was formed from l-prolyl-l-leucyl-glycine. From these evidences, the possible route of l-prolyl diketopiperazine formation by Streptomyces has been discussed. 相似文献

The reaction conditions for the production of l-tryptophan from dl-5-indolyl- methylhydantoin by Flavobacterium sp. AJ-3940, and the cultural conditions for the formation of the enzyme involved by this bacterium were investigated. The optimal pH of this reaction was around 8.5 and the optimal temperature was between 45 to 55°C. The amount of l-tryptophan produced was remarkably increased by the addition of inosine, which formed a water insoluble adduct with l-tryptophan, to the reaction mixture because of the release of end-product inhibition by l-tryptophan. This enzyme was inducibly and intracellularly produced by Flavobacterium sp. AJ-3940 in proportion to the increase in cell growth. Cells showing high activity were obtained using a medium containing 5 g glucose, 5 g (NH4)2SO4, 1 g KH2PO4, 3 g K2HPO4, 0.1 g MgSO4 · 7H2O, 0.01 g CaCl2 · 2H2O, 50 ml corn steep liquor and 3.5 g dl-5-indolylmethylhydantoin in a total volume of 1 liter (pH 7.0). Under the best conditions, 43 mg/ml of l-tryptophan was produced from 50 mg/ml of dl-5-indolylmethylhydantoin with a molar yield of 97% in the presence of cells of Flavobacterium sp. AJ-3940. In addition, other l-aromatic amino acids such as l-phenylalanine, l-tyrosine, l-DOPA and related l-amino acids were also produced from the corresponding 5-substituted hydantoins by this bacterium containing the l-tryptophan-producing enzyme induced by dl-5-indolylmethylhydantoin. 相似文献

A bacterium that stereospecifically produces l-valine from 5-isopropylhydantoin was isolated + from soil. It was identified as Bacillus brevis and given the number AJ-12299. l-Valine productivity from l-, d- or dl-5-isopropylhydantoin by B. brevis AJ-12299 was rather low because this bacterium had l-valine degrading-activity. In contrast, the productivity was improved by a mutant the l-valine degradation pathway of which was genetically blocked, and the 5-isopropylhydantoin consumed was stoichiometrically converted to l-valine. The optimal temperature and pH of the reaction were 30°C and 7.0~7.5. The enzyme involved in the reaction was inducible and was strongly induced by the addition of 5-isopropylhydantoin. In addition to l-valine production, this bacterium also produced various aliphatic and aromatic l-amino acids from the corresponding 5-substituted hydantoins. 相似文献

l-Fucose (l-galactose) dehydrogenase was isolated to homogeneity from a cell-free extract of Pseudomonas sp. No 1143 and purified about 380-fold with a yield of 23 %. The purification procedures were: treatment with polyethyleneimine, ammonium sulfate fractionation, chromatographies on phenyl-Sepharose and DEAE-Sephadex, preparative polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, and gel filtration on Sephadex G-100. The enzyme had a molecular weight of about 34,000. The optimum pH was at 9 — 10.5 and the isoelectric point was at pH 5.1. l-Fucose and l-galactose were effective substrates for the enzyme reaction, but d-arabinose was not so much. The anomeric requirement of the enzyme to l-fucose was the β-pyranose form, and the reaction product from l-fucose was l-fucono- lactone. The hydrogen acceptor for the enzyme reaction wasNADP+, and NAD + could be substituted for it to a very small degree. Km values were 1.9mm, 19mm, 0.016mm, and 5.6mm for l-fucose, l- galactose, NADP+, and NAD+, respectively. The enzyme activity was strongly inhibited by Hg2 +, Cd2 +, and PCMB, but metal-chelating reagents had almost no effect. In a preliminary experiment, it was indicated that the enzyme may be usable for the measurement of l-fucose. 相似文献

The formation of aromatic l-amino acid decarboxylase in bacteria was studied with intact cells in a reaction mixture containing the aromatic l-amino acids, 3,4-dihydroxy-l-phenyl-alanine, l-tyrosine, l-phenylalanine, l-tryptophan and 5-hydroxy-l-tryptophan. Activity was widely distributed in such genera as Achromobacter, Micrococcus, Staphylococcus and Sarcina. Bacterial strains belonging to the Micrococcaceae showed especially high decarboxylase activity toward l-tryptophan, 5-hydroxy-l-tryptophan and l-phenylalanine. M. percitreus AJ 1065 was selected as a promising source of aromatic l-amino acid decarboxylase. Results of experiments with this bacterium showed that the aromatic amine formed from l-tryptophan by the enzymatic method was identical with tryptamine. M. percitreus constitutively produced an enzyme which exhibited decarboxylase activity toward l-tryptophan. However, when large amounts of the aromatic l-amino acids listed above or the tryptamine formed from l-tryptophan were added, enzyme formation was repressed.Cells with high enzyme activity were prepared by cultivating this bacterium at 30°C for 24 hr in a medium containing 0.5% glycerol, 0.5% yeast extract, 0.5% Polypepton, 3.0 vol % soybean protein hydrolyzate, 0.1% KH2PO4, 0.1% MgSO4 · 7H2O, 0.001% FeSO4 · 7H2O and 0.001% MnSO4 · 5H2O in tap water (pH 8.0). 相似文献

l-Alanine adding enzymes from Bacillus subtilis and Bacillus cereus which catalyzed l-alanine incorporation into UDPMurNAc were partially purified and the properties of the enzymes were examined. The enzyme from B. subtilis was markedly stimulated by reducing agents including 2-mercaptoethanol, dithiothreitol, glutathione and cysteine. Mn2+ and Mg2+ activated l-alanine adding activity and their optimal concentrations were 2 to 5 mm and 10 mm, respectively. The optimum pH was 9.5 and the Km for l-alanine was 1.8×10?4m. l-Alanine adding reaction was strongly inhibited by p-chloromercuribenzoate and N-ethyl-maleimide. Among glycine, l- and d-amino acids and glycine derivatives, glycine was the most effective inhibitor of the l-alanine adding reaction. The enzyme from B. cereus was more resistant to glycine than that from B. subtilis. Glycine was incorporated into UDPMurNAc in place of l-alanine, and the Ki for glycine was 4.2×l0?3m with the enzyme from B. subtilis. From these data, the growth inhibition of bacteria by glycine is discussed. 相似文献

Some strains of Pseudomonas was found capable of utilizing l-theanine or d-theanine as a sole nitrogen and carbon source. The cell-free extract catalyzes the hydrolysis of the amide group of the compounds and the hydrolase activity was influenced remarkably by the nitrogen source in the medium. l-Theanine and d-theanine were hydrolyzed to yield stoichiometrically l-glutamic acid and d-glutamic acid, respectively, and ethylamine, which were isolated from the reaction mixture and identified.The theanine hydrolase of Pseudomonas aeruginosa was purified approximately 200-fold. It was shown that the activities of l-theanine hydrolase, d-theanine hydrolase and the heat-stable l-glutamine hydrolase and d-glutamine hydrolase are ascribed to a single enzyme, which may be regarded as a γ-glutamyltransferase from the point of view of the substrate specificity and the properties. This theanine hydrolase catalyzed the transfer of γ-glutamyl moiety of the substrates and glutathione to hydroxylamine. l-Glutamine and d-glutamine were hydrolyzed by the theanine hydrolase and also by the heat-labile enzyme of the same strain of Pseudomonas aeruginosa, whose properties resembled the common glutaminase. 相似文献

Crystalline l-asparaginase from Escherichia coli A-I-3 hydrolyzed d-asparagine, l- and d-glutamine but at much slower rates than the rate at which it hydrolyzed l-asparagine. Inhibitions by these substrates and related compounds were revealed to be competitive.d-Asparagine showed the same affinity for the enzyme both in its hydrolysis and inhibition of l-asparagine hydrolysis. l-Aspartate, d-aspartate and α-N-ethylasparagine inhibited various hydrolysis reactions with the respective inhibitor constants. The enzyme was found to hydrolyze β-methylaspartate as well as β-aspartohydroxamate. These data strongly suggest that the hydrolysis occurred at the same active site of the enzyme molecule with relatively low specificity for the configuration of the substrate molecule and the kind of bonding which it hydrolyzes. 相似文献

l-Leucine-pyruvate and l-leucine-α-ketoglutarate(α-KGA) transaminases were separated by DEAE-cellulose column chromatography and partially purified to 200- and 50-fold, respectively, from the cell-free extract of Acetobacter suboxydans (Gluconobacter suboxydans IFO 3172). The optimum pH range of the former was 5.0~5.5 and that of the latter was 8.5~9.0. l-Leucine, l-citrulline, and l-methionine were the most effective amino donors for the l-leucine-pyruvate transaminase. Basic amino acids as well as aromatic amino acids were able to be amino donors for the transamination with pyruvate. α-KGA was effective as an amino acceptor for this enzyme. The l-leucine-α-KGA transaminase had the typical properties of the branched-chain amino acid transaminase in its substrate specificity.The reaction products of the transaminations were identified. l-Alanine was formed from pyruvate and l-glutamate from α-KGA. α-Keto acids formed from various amino acids by the l-leucine-pyruvate transaminase were also identified. 相似文献
