Butyramide is an important chemical commodity, which is used for the synthesis of hydroxamic acids and electrorheological
fluids and for the preparation of β-amodoorganotin compounds. The nitrile hydratase (Nhase) of Rhodococcus rhodochrous PA-34 catalyzed the conversion of butyronitrile to butyramide. The maximum Nhase activity [18 U/mg dry cell weight (dcw)]
of whole cells of R. rhodochrous PA-34 was observed at pH 7.0 with 10% (v/v) butyronitrile and 1 mg cells (dcw)/ml reaction mixture at 10°C. The cells of
R. rhodochrous PA-34 retained almost 50% activity when incubated for 1 h in the presence of 85% (v/v) butyronitrile. A yield of 597 g of
butyramide (6.8 M) was obtained using 60% (v/v) butyronitrile, 1 g cells (dry weight) in a 1-l batch reaction at 10°C for
6 h. 相似文献

High activities of ATP sulfurylase were found in the soluble protein fraction of two Chlorobium limicola strains, whereas ADP sulfurylase was absent. ATP sulfurylase was partially purified and characterized. It was a stable soluble enzyme with a molecular weight of 230,000, buffer-dependent pH optima at 8.6 and 7.2 and an isoelectric point at pH 4.8. No physiological inhibitor was found. Inhibition was observed with p-CMB and heavy metals. Sulfur compounds had no effect on enzyme activity. The stoichiometry of the reaction was proven. In contrast, an ADP sulfurylase, but no ATP sulfurylase, was found in Chlorobium vibrioforme. This enzyme was very labile with a molecular weight of about 120,000 and buffer-dependent pH optima at 9.0 and 8.5. Under test conditions the apparent K
m value was determined to be 0.28 mM for adenylyl sulfate and 8.0 mM for phosphate.Abbreviations APS

Ectomycorrhizal fungi can produce antifungal compounds in vitro as well as in symbiosis with the host plant that can reduce root diseases. The objective of this study was to isolate antifungal compounds from culture filtrate of Paxillus sp. 60/92, which can form mycorrhizas with Picea glehnii seedlings. Culture filtrate of Paxillus sp. 60/92 showed antifungal activity against Pythium vexans at pH 3–4 but not at pH 5–10, although sterile MMN-b liquid medium (pH 3–10) did not show antifungal activity. Upon separation of antifungal compounds in the culture filtrate, antifungal activity was detected in the organic acid and water-soluble phenolics fractions adjusted to pH 3. Although antifungal activity of individual fractions was lower than that of the culture filtrate, a mixture of these fractions showed antifungal activity similar to that of the culture filtrate. Furthermore, antifungal activity of oxalic acid, which is known to be produced by Paxillus involutus, was increased by mixing with the water-soluble phenolic fraction. Our findings indicate that Paxillus sp. 60/92 produces organic acids and water-soluble phenolics that together show antifungal activity at pH 3–4 against P. vexans. 相似文献

Two auxin analogues have been tested as affinity labels for auxin binding sites in coleoptile membranes of Zea mays L. Reacting the membranes at pH 8–9 with the diazonium salt of CAPA (2-chloro-4-aminophenoxyacetic acid) reduces their subsequent ability to bind NAA(1-naphthylacetic acid). Diazo-Chloramben (2,5-dichloro-3-aminobenzoic acid) is also effective in inhibiting NAA binding capacity and this inhibition is largely independent of reaction pH over the range pH 6–9. Similar experiments with sulphydryl reagents have shown that reaction of the membranes with p-mercuribenzoate (PMB) strongly inhibits subsequent auxin binding activity. Prior addition of NAA protects the binding sites against the action of diazo-Chloramben or PMB when the reactions are carried out at pH 6. From these results and from other considerations, several of the amino acid residues in the binding site environment have been tentatively assigned.Abbreviations CAPA

A hemicellulosic hydrolysate was prepared with 0.3 M H2SO4 at 98 °C for 1 h. The total initial reducing sugar was maintained at 45 g l–1 by synthetic xylose supplementation. The seven detoxification methods were employed including either the single addition of solid CaO (to pH 10 or 6) or its combinations with zeolite shaking. Over-liming gave the hydrolysate that was most completely fermented by Pichia stipitis and Candida shehatae at 30 °C, pH 6, among the tested methods. 相似文献

The condensation of D-fructose 6-phosphate or 1-phosphate with cyanide has been used to synthesize 2-carboxyhexitol 6-phosphates and 1-phosphates. The products have been characterized in terms of their action on ribulose bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase. The reaction of D-fructose 6-phosphate with cyanide is four times as fast (at 22°C) at pH 7.5 than at pH 11.5 and the primary products of condensation are more easily isolated by anion exchange chromatography. Two minor chromatographic peaks (I and II) for diastereomeric 2-carboxyhexitol 6-phosphates are isolated in addition to two major peaks, III and IV, which are lactones. The lactones are those of 2-C-carboxy-D-glucitol 6-phosphate (CG6P) in peak III and 2-C-carboxy-D-mannitol 6-phosphate (CM6P) in peak IV, as established after dephosphorylation by the relative rates of oxidation by periodate and by gas chromatographic retention times of the acetates. Analogous methodology has been used to synthesize the diastereomeric 2-carboxy-hexitol 1-phosphates (CG1P and CM1P) and their lactones from D-fructose 1-phosphate. The four carboxylates inhibit ribulose bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase from spinach or Pseudomonas oxalaticus in the following decreasing order of potency: CG6P, CM6P, CG1P, CM1P. The inhibition pattern suggests that the binding of the 5-phosphate moiety of the intermediate in the reaction catalyzed by ribulose bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase may be stronger by an order of magnitude than the binding of the 1-phosphate group. 相似文献

Several samples of microbial mat obtained from soda lakes of the Kunkurskaya steppe (Chita region) abundantly populated by
purple bacteria were screened for the presence of heterotrophic alkaliphiles capable of oxidizing sulfur compounds to sulfate.
This capacity was found in only one pigmented strain, ALG 1, isolated on medium with acetate and thiosulfate at pH 10. The
strain was found to be a strictly aerobic and obligately heterotrophic alkaliphile. Growth on medium with acetate was possible
within a narrow pH range from 8.5 to 10.4. The strain formed a reddish orange carotenoid and bacteriochlorophylla. Pigments were synthesized only at high concentrations of nitrogen-containing organic compounds (peptone or yeast extract).
The production of bacteriochlorophylla was maximal under microaerobic conditions in darkness. Strain ALG 1 could oxidize sulfide, thiosulfate, sulfite, and elemental
sulfur to sulfate. In heterotrophically growing culture (pH 10), thiosulfate was not oxidized until the late logarithmic phase.
The sulfur-oxidizing activity was maximal at the most alkaline pH values. The notable increase in the efficiency of organic
carbon utilization observed in the presence of thiosulfate suggested that the bacterium was a sulfur-oxidizing lithoheterotroph.
The phylogenetic analysis of the 16S rRNA gene showed strain ALG 1 to be a member of the α-3 subgroup of Proteobacteria and
to constitute a distinct branch located between nonsulfur purple bacteriaRhodobacter andRhodovulum. Based on the unique phenotypic properties and the results of phylogenetic analysis, the alkaliphilic isolate ALG 1 was assigned
to a new genus and speciesRoseinatronobacter thiooxidans with the type strain DSM-13087 相似文献

NADH:nitrate reductase (EC 1.6.6.1) from squash (Cucurbita maxima Duch., cv. Buttercup) can catalyze the reduction of a ferriphytosiderophore from barley (Hordeum vulgare L. cv. Europa). Maximal activity occurs at pH 6, with an apparentK
m
andV
max of 76 M and 21 nmol·min-1·(mg protein)-1, respectively. The ferriphytosiderophore strongly inhibits nitrate reduction catalyzed by nitrate reductase at the optimal pH for nitrate reduction, i.e. 7.5. On the contrary, nitrate is a poor inhibitor of ferriphytosiderophore reduction catalyzed by nitrate reductase at the optimal pH for this reaction, pH 6.0. Thus, squash has the potential to assimilate the iron from a ferriphytosiderophore synthesized by another plant. 相似文献

The effect of pH, temperature, reactant concentration, and reaction time has been investigated for the synthesis of N-benzhydryl-N′-acetamidopiperazyl-6-penicillanic acid and N-benzyl-N′-acetamidopiperazyl-6-penicillanic acid from 6-aminopenicillanic acid by the immobilized penicillin acylase from Escherichia coli. The synthesis of penicillins from carboxylic acids proceeds most rapidly at pH 5; with ethyl ester derivatives of carboxylic acids the pH optimum is higher (6–7). The most rapid synthesis of penicillins was obtained with ethyl ester derivatives of carboxylic acids. The optimum temperatures were 25–35°C. 相似文献

In the present study, we investigated the peroxidase-catalyzed detoxification of model phenolic compounds and evaluated the
inhibitory effects of the detoxified solution on butanol production by Clostridium beijerinckii National Collection of Industrial and Marine Bacteria Ltd. 8052. The six phenolic compounds, p-coumaric acid, ferulic acid, 4-hydroxybenzoic acid, vanillic acid, syringaldehyde, and vanillin, were selected as model fermentation
inhibitors generated during pretreatment and hydrolysis of lignocellulose. The enzyme reaction was optimized as a function
of the reaction conditions of pH, peroxidase concentration, and hydrogen peroxide to substrate ratio. Most of the tested phenolics
have a broad optimum pH range of 6.0 to 9. Removal efficiency increased with the molar ratio of H2O2 to each compound up to 0.5–1.25. In the case of p-coumaric acid, ferulic acid, vanillic acid, and vanillin, the removal efficiency was almost 100% with only 0.01 μM of enzyme.
The tested phenolic compounds (1 g/L) inhibited cell growth by 64–74%, while completely inhibiting the production of butanol. Although syringaldehyde and vanillin were less toxic on cell growth, the level of inhibition on the butanol production was
quite different. The detoxified solution remarkably improved cell growth and surprisingly increased butanol production to
the level of the control. Hence, our present study, using peroxidase for the removal of model phenolic compounds, could be
applied towards the detoxification of lignocellulosic hydrolysates for butanol fermentation. 相似文献

Summary Experiments were performed to measure the pH-sensitive steps in nodulation and symbiotic fixation byPisum sativum and isolate RP-212-1 ofRhizobium leguminosarum. An aeroponic system with rigorous pH control was used to obtain numerous effective nodules. After exposure to various pH levels, the following responses were measured: (1) legume root growth and development, (2) survival and growth rate of a single effective bacterial isolate, (3) degree of nodulation, (4) rate of nitrogen fixation, (5) plant biomass, and (6) nitrogen content of plants. Both bacterial growth and root development were adequate at all pH levels from 4.4 to 6.6, but efficient nodulation and nitrogen fixation did not occur at pH 4.8 and below. The processes required for symbiosis were about 10 times as sensitive to acidity as either bacterial growth or root growth alone. Nodulation was the most acid-sensitive step. 相似文献

In order to create novel β-glucosidase constructs, 8 kinds of chimeric β-glucosidases were constructed using overlapping polymerase
chain reaction (PCR) based on Cellvibrio gilvus (CG) and Thermotoga maritima (TM) genes. Two kinds of novel chimeric β-glucosidases (No. 6 and No. 8 type) were selected and their properties characterized.
SDS-PAGE analysis showed that both constructs had a molecular mass of 80 kDa. The optimum pH of No. 6 chimeric β-glucosidase
was found to be 3.0 and 5.0, showing varying maximum activity according to the buffer used. No. 8 chimeric enzyme was found
to be optimally active at a pH of 4.5 and the optimum temperature of No.6 and No.8 chimeric β-glucosidases was reported to
be 60°C, respectively. The Km values of both novel chimeric enzymes were calculated to be 0.012 mM and 0.0082 mM, respectively
and the characteristics of the novel chimeric enzymes were to lie between those of the parental enzymes. 相似文献

Truncated form of UBP1, an ubiquitin-specific protease ofSaccharomyces cerevisiae, was overexpressed inEscherichia coli. The hexahistidine residue (His6) was fused to the N-terminus of truncated UBP1 and the corresponding recombinant protein was purified with high yield by
immobilized metal affinity chromatography. The truncated form of UBP1 protein was functional to cleave ubiquitinated human
growth hormone as substrate. Effects of pH and temperature were investigated in order to optimize deubiquitinating reactions
for the truncated UBP1. Optimum temperature and pH for the cleavage reaction were 40°C and pH 8.0, respectively. 相似文献

The effects of carbon and nitrogen sources, carbon-to-nitrogen ratio (C:N) and initial pH value on the growth and sporulation of the nematophagous fungus Pochonia chlamydosporia in liquid culture were examined. Among the 21 carbon sources and 15 nitrogen compounds tested, the optimal carbon and nitrogen sources for mycelial growth were sweet potato and L-tyrosine, and for sporulation were sweet potato and casein peptone. A C:N ratio of 10:1 at pH 3.7 gave the maximum yield of conidia and a C:N ratio of 40:1 at pH 6.8 gave the maximum biomass. The initial pH value had a significant effect on mycelial growth and conidial production, with the optimal ranges being 3.5–4.5 for sporulation and 5–6 for growth. Maximum conidial production was obtained at an initial pH of 4.0 and the maximum biomass at pH 6.0. The results also showed that the final pH after 7 days cultivation was always higher than the initial value. The variability in growth and sporulation of seven strains of P. chlamydosporia in liquid culture was also compared and discussed. 相似文献

The effect of pH on the transformation of syringic and vanillic acids by the laccases of Rhizoctonia praticola and Trametes versicolor 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Laccases (benzenediol: oxygen oxidoreductases, EC 1.10.3.2) from Rhizoctonia praticola and Trametes versicolor formed different products from syringic and vanillic acids at different pH values, but both enzymes generated the same chemicals at a particular pH. The products were separated by thin-layer and high-performance liquid chromatography. Four compounds were determined from syringic acid (m/z 168, 334, 350 and 486) at pH 6.9, but only two of these (m/z 168 and 334) were found at pH 3.5. In the case of vanillic acid two isomeric dimers (m/z 304) and 2-methoxy-1,4-benzoquinone (m/z 138) were identified. The dimers were formed at both pH values (pH 3.5 and 6.9), but 2-methoxy-1,4-benzoquinone appeared only at pH 3.5. 相似文献

Five strains of Oenococcus oeni (syn. Leuconostoc oenos) under non-proliferating conditions were assessed for the performance of the malolactic fermentation in wine at various initial
pH values, malic acid concentration and densities of cells. We succeeded in inducing the malolactic fermentation after inoculation
of high densities of O. oeni G6 even in recalcitrant wines where the traditional malolactic fermentation was inhibited by adverse environmental conditions
(low pH and high concentration of malic acid). Optimal degrading conditions in wine, under different physico-chemical environments,
were determined in order to achieve rapid depletion of malic acid in red wine. Off-odour compounds were not formed under these
conditions, suggesting an attractive alternative for wine production.

Summary Several newN-halamine compounds have been evaluated as potential replacements for free chlorine as disinfectants for the egg-processing industry. The compounds were tested againstSalmonella enteritidis on the surfaces of egg shells. Test procedure included spraying inoculated egg shells with solutions of several of theN-halamine compounds and free chlorine for comparison, suspending the most stableN-halamine compound in a thin coating of mineral oil on the egg shell and subsequent inoculation, and measuring the rates of diffusion of the compounds and free chlorine through the egg shells. Compounds DBC (1-bromo-3-chloro-2,2,5,5-tetramethylimidazolidin-4-one) and DC (1,3-dichloro-2,2,5,5,-tetramethylimidazolidin-4-one) were significantly more efficacious than free chlorine in inactivatingSalmonella in the spray experiments, while compound MC (1-chloro-2,2,5,5-tetramethylmidazolidin-4-one), in a mineral oil suspension, provided disinfection of the egg shells within 72 h of contact. None of the disinfectant compounds penetrated egg shells at a rate greater than 1 mg/l over a period of 6 h. Compound MC is recommended as a possible replacement for unstable, corrosive-free chlorine as a bactericide for the egg-processing industry. 相似文献

Acid phosphatase present in preparations ofAspergillus niger phytase accelerated dephosphorylation of sodium phytate. Its influence on the reaction rate and distribution ofmyo-inositol phosphates was most apparent at low pH value (2.5) and when acid-hydrolysed substrate was de-esterified enzymatically. With partly purified phytase, the predominant inositol form was tetraphosphate but a preparation having acid phosphatase activity caused an even distribution of lower inositol phosphates after a few hours. 相似文献
