Nucleoside transporter inhibitors have potential therapeutic applications as anticancer, antiviral, cardioprotective and neuroprotective agents. Although quite a few potent inhibitors of the equilibrative nucleoside transporters are known, largely missing are the concentrative nucleoside transporter inhibitors. Phloridzin (3, Ki = 16.00 μM) is a known moderate inhibitor of the concentrative nucleoside transporters. We have synthesized and evaluated analogs of phloridzin at the hCNT3 nucleoside transporter. Within the series of synthesized analogs compound 16 (Ki = 2.88 μM), possessing a ribofuranose sugar unit instead of a glucopyranose as present in phloridzin, exhibited the highest binding affinity at the hCNT3 transporter. Phloridzin and compound 16 have also been shown to be selective for the hCNT3 transporter as compared with the hENT1 transporter. Compound 16 can serve as a new lead which after further modifications could yield selective and potent hCNT3 inhibitors.  相似文献

Cellulosimicrobium cellulans employs extracellular sialidase to selectively convert polysialogangliosides to ganglioside GM1. We cloned this novel sialidase gene (ccsia) from C. cellulans sp. 21, and overexpressed recombinant sialidase (CcSia) protein in E. coli BL21 (DE3) by high cell density fermentation. The presence of an N-terminal hexa-His tag allowed for purification using nickel affinity chromatography (2.3-fold, specific activity 41.5 U/mg). As determined by gel electrophoresis and gel filtration chromatography, the molecular weight of CcSia was found to be about 75 kDa, consistent with sequence analysis (75,271 Da). CcSia transformed polysialogangliosides GD1a, GD1b and GT1b into GM1. For this reaction, the response surface approach showed that optimal conditions in a 1-L system were 2 h incubation at 32.5 °C and pH 5.2, with substrate concentrations of 10 g/L and crude enzyme concentration 1 g/L, respectively. Under above conditions, 10 g/L of ganglioside was completely converted to the product GM1 with a yield of 52%. Our studies demonstrate CcSia could be used for industrial preparation of ganglioside GM1 by the pharmaceutical industry.  相似文献

Purine arabinosides are well known antiviral and antineoplastic drugs. Since their chemical synthesis is complex, time-consuming, and polluting, enzymatic synthesis provides an advantageous alternative. In this work, we describe the microbial whole cell synthesis of purine arabinosides through nucleoside phosphorylase-catalyzed transglycosylation starting from their pyrimidine precursors. By screening of our microbial collection, Citrobacter koseri (CECT 856) was selected as the best biocatalyst for the proposed biotransformation. In order to enlarge the scale of the transformations to 150 mL for future industrial applications, the biocatalyst immobilization by entrapment techniques and its behavior in different reactor configurations, considering both batch and continuous processes, were analyzed. C. koseri immobilized in agarose could be used up to 68 times and the storage stability was at least 9 months. By this approach, fludarabine (58% yield in 14 h), vidarabine (71% yield in 26 h) and 2,6-diaminopurine arabinoside (77% yield in 24 h), were prepared.  相似文献

In the practical application of Bacillus licheniformis γ-glutamyltranspeptidase (BlGGT), we describe a straightforward enzymatic synthesis of γ-L-glutamyl-S-allyl-L-cysteine (GSAC), a naturally occurring organosulfur compound found in garlic, based on a transpeptidation reaction involving glutamine as the γ-glutamyl donor and S-allyl-L-cysteine as the acceptor. With the help of thin layer chromatography technique and computer-assisted image analysis, we performed the quantitative determination of GSAC. The optimum conditions for a biocatalyzed synthesis of GSAC were 200 mM glutamine, 200 mM S-allyl-L-cysteine, 50 mM Tris–HCl buffer (pH 9.0), and BlGGT at a final concentration of 1.0 U/mL. After a 15-h incubation of the reaction mixture at 60 °C, the GSAC yield for the free and immobilized enzymes was 19.3% and 18.3%, respectively. The enzymatic synthesis of GSAC was repeated under optimal conditions at 1-mmol preparative level. The reaction products together with the commercially available GSAC were further subjected to an ESI-MS/MS analysis. A significant signal with m/z of 291.1 and the protonated fragments at m/z of 73.0, 130.1, 145.0, and 162.1 were observed in the positive ESI-MS/MS spectrum, which is consistent with those of the standard compound. These results confirm the successful synthesis of GSAC from glutamine and S-allyl-L-cysteine by BlGGT.  相似文献

Enantiopure l-tert-leucine (l-Tle) was synthesized through reductive amination of trimethylpyruvate catalyzed by cell-free extracts of recombinant Escherichia coli coexpressing leucine dehydrogenase (LeuDH) and formate dehydrogenase (FDH). The leudh gene from Lysinibacillus sphaericus CGMCC 1.1677 encoding LeuDH was cloned and coexpressed with NAD+-dependent FDH from Candida boidinii for NADH regeneration. The batch reaction conditions for the synthesis of l-Tle were systematically optimized. Two substrate feeding modes (intermittent and continuous) were addressed to alleviate substrate inhibition and thus improve the space-time yield. The continuous feeding process was conveniently performed in water at an overall substrate concentration up to 1.5 M, with both conversion and ee of >99% and space-time yield of 786 g L−1 d−1, respectively. Furthermore, the preparation was successfully scaled up to a 1 L scale, demonstrating the developed procedure showed a great industrial potential for the production of enantiopure l-Tle.  相似文献

l-Theanine, which has seen increasing use in the functional food industry, can be prepared via enzymatic synthesis using γ-glutamyltranspeptidase (GGT; EC 2.3.2.2). In this study, the GGT from Bacillus subtilis 168 was cloned and expressed as a secreted protein using Escherichia coli BL21(DE3). The enzymatic properties of the GGT and the optimal conditions for the enzymatic synthesis of l-theanine were investigated in detail. The activity of the enzyme was optimal at pH 10; the optimal temperature was 50 °C. Desirable pH stability was observed between pH 5 and pH 12, and adequate thermostability was seen at 50 °C. In 5 h at 37 °C, the enzyme converted 200 mM l-glutamine and 2.2 M ethylamine to l-theanine with a final yield of 78%. Yields of l-theanine decreased to 58% when using 500 mM Gln and 45% when using 1 M Gln. The yield of l-theanine obtained at high substrate concentration provides the basis for the industrial-scale production of l-theanine.  相似文献

We evaluated the photochemical and enzymatic synthesis of methanol from formaldehyde with alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) from Saccharomyces cerevisiae and NAD+ photoreduction by the visible-light sensitization of zinc tetraphenylporphyrin tetrasulfonate (ZnTPPS) in the presence of methylviologen (MV2+), diaphorase, and triethanolamine (TEOA). When the sample solution containing ZnTPPS, MV2+, NAD+, diaphorase, and TEOA in potassium phosphate buffer solution was irradiated, the NADH produced increased with the irradiation time. After irradiation for 180 min, the conversion yield of NAD+ to NADH was about 60% under 0.1 mM NAD+ condition. The methanol production also depended on the conversion yield of NAD+ to NADH. After irradiation for 180 min, 0.38 μM of methanol was produced from formaldehyde (16 μM). The conversion ratio of formaldehyde to methanol was about 2.3%. This result indicates that a system for the photochemical synthesis of methanol from formaldehyde was developed with ADH and the NADH produced by the photosensitization of ZnTPPS in water media.  相似文献

An appropriate and controlled supply of thyroid hormones is vital for proper body function. In turn, an appropriate synthesis of T3 and T4 in the thyroid gland is dependent on a sufficient and balanced iodide concentration in blood serum. Due to widespread iodine deficiency or some cases of iodine over exposure, iodide biomonitoring in serum is important and it is that biomonitoring approach being closest to the bioavailable I supply for the thyroid gland. Therefore, this paper describes a biomonitoring method for iodide determination in serum based on ion chromatography–inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (IC–ICP-MS). Since in literature only very few data are available on iodide in serum but many in urine the method is also extended to I monitoring in urine. The method was additionally designed to have short analysis time (8 min) for increased sample throughput, good precision in serial measurement (serum: 4.86%; urine: 1.4%), and day-to-day determination (serum: 5.7%; urine: 2.28%), high accuracy (serum: 105%; urine: 101%) and good recovery (serum: 102%; urine: 99%) even in matrix-rich samples at low I concentration. Also, investigations were performed to elucidate whether internal standardization during chromatography, sample preparation for protein-matrix removal or matrix-matched calibration are advantageous for analytical performance. Finally, limits of detection (3σ) of 0.12 μg/L or 0.05 μg/L (serum or urine) and limit of quantification (10σ) of 0.39 μg/L or 0.17 μg/L (serum or urine) were achieved.  相似文献

The thermophilic anaerobe Thermoanaerobacterium saccharolyticum JW/SL-YS485 was investigated as a host for n-butanol production. A systematic approach was taken to demonstrate functionality of heterologous components of the clostridial n-butanol pathway via gene expression and enzymatic activity assays in this organism. Subsequently, integration of the entire pathway in the wild-type strain resulted in n-butanol production of 0.85 g/L from 10 g/L xylose, corresponding to 21% of the theoretical maximum yield. We were unable to integrate the n-butanol pathway in strains lacking the ability to produce acetate, despite the theoretical overall redox neutrality of n-butanol formation. However, integration of the n-butanol pathway in lactate deficient strains resulted in n-butanol production of 1.05 g/L from 10 g/L xylose, corresponding to 26% of the theoretical maximum.  相似文献

The generation of a fermentable hydrolysate from arabinoxylan is an important prerequisite for utilization of wheat hemicellulose in production of ethanol or other value added products. This study examined the individual and combined efficiencies of four selected, commercial, multicomponent enzyme preparations Celluclast 1.5 L (from Trichoderma reesei), Finizym (from Aspergillus niger), Ultraflo L (from Humicola insolens), and Viscozyme L (from Aspergillus aculeatus) in catalyzing arabinose and xylose release from water-soluble wheat arabinoxylan in an industrial fermentation residue (still bottoms) in lab scale experiments. Different reaction conditions, i.e. enzyme dosage, reaction time, pH, and temperature, were evaluated in response surface and ternary mixture designs. Ultraflo L treatment gave optimal arabinose release: treatment (6 h, 60 °C, pH 6) with this enzyme preparation liberated up to 46% by weight (wt.%) of the theoretically maximal arabinose yield from the substrate. Celluclast 1.5 L was superior to the other enzyme preparations in releasing xylose and catalyzed release of up to 25 wt.% of the theoretical maximum xylose yield (6 h, 60 °C, pH 4). Prolonged treatment for 24 h with a 50:50 mixture of Celluclast 1.5 L and Ultraflo L at 50 °C, pH 5 exhibited a synergistic effect in xylose release and 62 wt.% of the theoretically maximal xylose yield was achieved. Addition of pure β-xylosidase from T. reesei to the Ultraflo L preparation released the same amounts of xylose from the substrate as the 50:50 mixture of Celluclast 1.5 L and Ultraflo L. The data thus signified that the synergistic effect in xylose release between Celluclast 1.5 L and Ultraflo L is the result of a three-step interaction mechanism involving α-l-arabinofuranosidase and different xylan degrading enzyme activities in the two enzyme preparations.  相似文献

A selective synthesis of dilauroyl maltose was developed using lipase-catalyzed condensation of lauric acid and maltose in two-solvent mixtures. The characteristics of different solvent combination were tested and it was found that the combination of acetone with n-hexane has a good selectivity for the synthesis of dilauroyl maltose. The highest diester conversion of 69% (i.e. 36.5 g/L of dilauroyl maltose) was obtained under optimal conditions: 25.65 g/L maltose, 60 g/L lauric acid, 60 g/L molecular sieve and 10 g/L lipase at 150 rpm and 50 °C for 72 h in 10 mL of mixed solvent of acetone:n-hexane (60:40, v/v).  相似文献

Jerusalem artichoke extract or powder was used for astaxanthin production using Phaffia rhodozyma without acidic or enzymatic inulin hydrolysis. The culture medium containing Jerusalem artichoke as carbon source was optimized, and feeding strategies, including constant, exponential, pH-stat, and substrate feedback fed-batch fermentations, were also compared for enhancing the cell biomass and astaxanthin synthesis by P. rhodozyma. Substrate-feedback fed-batch fermentation resulted in the highest dry cell weight of 83.60 g/L, with a carotenoid concentration and yield of 982.50 mg/L and 13.30 mg/g, respectively, under optimized medium components using Jerusalem artichoke extract as carbon source in a 3-L stirred-tank bioreactor. Moreover, 482.50 mg/L of carotenoids and 253.10 mg/L of astaxanthin were obtained by continuous feeding of Jerusalem artichoke powder, which was used as carbon source. Astaxanthin essence with high DPPH-scavenging activity was obtained from the extracted astaxanthin, and the DPPH free radical scavenging rate of 40 ppm astaxanthin essence reached 76.29%. When stored at 4 °C, astaxanthin essence showed the highest stability, with a minimum k value of 0.0099 week−1 and maximum half-life (t1/2) value of 70 weeks.  相似文献

Our present investigation describes the regioselective enzymatic acylation of two series of acylated derivatives of phloridzin and isoquercitrin with six different long chain saturated, mono- and poly-unsaturated fatty acids. The biocatalytic synthesis was optimized to achieve 81–98% yields, using immobilized lipase B, from Candida antarctica (Novozym 435®), in acetone at 45 °C. The synthesized esters have been analyzed by 1H NMR, 13C NMR spectroscopy and evaluated for their antioxidant capacity and tyrosinase inhibition, using in vitro assays. Among all the phloridzin and isoquercitrin derivatives, the greatest potential for inhibition of tyrosinase activity (p ?0.05) was exhibited by the α-linolenic acid ester of isoquercitrin.  相似文献

The main objective of this work was to study the enzymatic synthesis of short chain ethyl esters, a group of relevant aroma molecules, by Fusarium solani pisi cutinase in an organic solvent media (iso-octane), and to assess the influence of different parameters on the reaction yield.Cutinase displayed high initial esterification rates in iso-octane, which amounted to 1.15 μmol min−1 mg−1 for ethyl butyrate (C4 acid chain) and 1.06 μmol min−1 mg−1 for ethyl valerate (C5 acid chain). High product yields, 84% for ethyl butyrate and 96% for ethyl valerate, were observed after 6 h of reaction, for an initial equimolar concentration of substrates (0.1 M).The highest product yield (97%) was observed for ethyl caproate (C6) synthesis, a compound which is a part of natural apple and pineapple flavour, for an alcohol:acid molar ratio of 2 (0.2 M ethanol concentration).Cutinase affinity for short chain length carboxylic acids (C4–C6) in ester synthesis in iso-octane confirmed previous observations in reversed micellar system.  相似文献

Different filamentous fungi isolated from molasses and jams (kiwi and fig) were screened for fructooligosaccharides (FOS) producing activity. Two strains, identified as Penicilium sizovae (CK1) and Cladosporium cladosporioides (CF215), were selected on the basis of the FOS yield and kestose/nystose ratio. In both strains the activity was mostly mycelium-bound. Starting from 600 g/L of sucrose, maximum FOS yield was 184 and 339 g/L for P. sizovae and C. cladosporioides, respectively. Interestingly, the highest FOS concentration with C. cladosporioides was reached at 93% sucrose conversion, which indicated a notable transglycosylation to hydrolysis ratio. The main FOS in the reaction mixtures were identified by HPAEC–PAD chromatography. C. cladosporioides synthesized mainly 1-kestose (158 g/L), nystose (97 g/L), 1F-fructosylnystose (19 g/L), 6-kestose (12 g/L), neokestose (10 g/L) and a disaccharide (34 g/L) that after its purification and NMR analysis was identified as blastose [Fru-β(2  6)-Glc]. P. sizovae was very selective for the formation of 1F-FOS (in particular 1-kestose) with minor contribution of neoFOS and negligible of levan-type FOS.  相似文献

A biocatalytic route for the synthesis of isoniazid, an important first-line antitubercular drug, in aqueous system is presented. The reported bioprocess is a greener method, does not involve any hazardous reagent and takes place under mild reaction conditions. Whole cell amidase of Bacillus smithii strain IITR6b2 having acyltransferase activity was utilized for its ability to transfer acyl group of isonicotinamide to hydrazine–2HCl in aqueous medium. B. smithii strain IITR6b2 possessed 3 folds higher acyltransferase activity as compared to amide hydrolase activity and this ratio was further improved to 4.5 by optimizing concentration of co-substrate hydrazine–2HCl. Various key parameters were optimized and under the optimum reaction conditions of pH (7, phosphate buffer 100 mM), temperature (30 °C), substrate/co-substrate concentration (100/1000 mM) and resting cells concentration (2.0 mgdcw/ml), 90.4% conversion of isonicotinamide to isoniazid was achieved in 60 min. Under these conditions, a fed batch process for production of isoniazid was developed and resulted in the accumulation of 439 mM of isoniazid with 87.8% molar conversion yield and productivity of 6.0 g/h/gdcw. These results demonstrated that enzymatic synthesis of isoniazid using whole cells of B. smithii strain IITR6b2 might present an efficient alternative route to the chemical synthesis procedures without the involvement of organic solvent.  相似文献

Development of sustainable biological process for the production of bulk chemicals from renewable feedstock is an important goal of white biotechnology. Ethylene glycol (EG) is a large-volume commodity chemical with an annual production of over 20 million tons, and it is currently produced exclusively by petrochemical route. Herein, we report a novel biosynthetic route to produce EG from glucose by the extension of serine synthesis pathway of Corynebacterium glutamicum. The EG synthesis is achieved by the reduction of glycoaldehyde derived from serine. The transformation of serine to glycoaldehyde is catalyzed either by the sequential enzymatic deamination and decarboxylation or by the enzymatic decarboxylation and oxidation. We screened the corresponding enzymes and optimized the production strain by combinatorial optimization and metabolic engineering. The best engineered C. glutamicum strain is able to accumulate 3.5 g/L of EG with the yield of 0.25 mol/mol glucose in batch cultivation. This study lays the basis for developing an efficient biological process for EG production.  相似文献

Recently, Mucor indicus was introduced as a promising ethanol producing microorganism for fermentation of lignocellulosic hydrolysates, showing a number of advantages over Saccharomyces cerevisiae. However, high nutrient requirement is the main drawback of the fungus in efficient ethanol production from lignocelluloses. In this study, application of fungal extract as a potential nutrient source replacing all required nutrients in fermentation of wheat straw by M. indicus was investigated. Wheat straw was pretreated with N-methylmorpholine-N-oxide (NMMO) at 120 °C for 1–5 h prior to enzymatic hydrolysis. Hydrolysis yield was improved at least by 6-fold for 3 h pretreated straw compared with that of untreated one. A fungal extract was produced by autolysis of M. indicus biomass, an unavoidable byproduct of fermentation. Maximum free amino nitrogen (2.04 g/L), phosphorus (1.50 g/L), and total nitrogen (4.47 g/L) as well as potassium, magnesium, and calcium in the fungal extract were obtained by autolysis of the biomass at 50 °C and pH 5.0. The fungal extract as a nutrient-rich supplement substituted yeast extract and all other required minerals in fermentation and enhanced the ethanol yield up to 92.1% of the theoretical yield. Besides, appreciate amounts of chitosan were produced as another valuable product of the autolysis.  相似文献

Hydroquinone glycosides were produced by transglycosylation reactions catalyzed by cyclodextrin glucanotransferase (CGTase) from Thermoanaerobacter sp. (Toruzyme® 3.0L). The reactions were carried out in an aqueous system containing hydroquinone (HQ) and maltodextrin as acceptor and donor substrate molecules respectively. The conditions for the synthesis of hydroquinone glucoside (α-arbutin) were 9 mM hydroquinone, maltodextrin (5%, w/v) in 20 mM citrate phosphate buffer, pH 5.5 and 0.025 mg/ml toruzyme at 40 °C for 24 h. The transfer efficiency of hydroquinone glycosylation was 31.8% and 29.2% respectively, when α-cyclodextrin and maltodextrin were employed as donor substrates. The major glycoside product was identified as hydroquinone-1-O-α-d-glucopyranoside (α-arbutin) on the basis of mass spectrometric, nuclear magnetic resonance analysis and component analysis of its enzymatic hydrolysates. The highest molar yield of α-arbutin (21.2%) was obtained when α-cyclodextrin was used as the donor substrate. A two step enzymatic reaction system comprising of CGTase and amyloglucosidase helped to attain a molar yield of 30% for α-arbutin. At room temperature the solubility of α-arbutin in water was determined to be 12.8 g/100 ml which is approximately 1.8 fold higher than that of hydroquinone.  相似文献
