An endo-beta-1,4-glucanase (EC 3.2.1.4) was obtained in high yields in purified form a culture filtrate of Fusarium lini by an extremely simple method. The method consists of precipitation of the culture filtrate with ammonium sulphate (290 g/L), followed by chromatography of the precipitated fraction on Biogel P-150. The purification is based on the unusual property of the enzyme being eluted after cytochrome C, even though it molecular weight is 2.8 x 10(4) (by SDS PAGE). The yield of pure enzyme was 6.8 mg/L culture broth. The homogeneity of the enzyme was established by ultracentrifugation, isoelectric focusing, and electrophoresis in polyacrylamide gels containing SDS. The enzyme was isoelectric at pH 8.3 and contained 2.9% carbohydrate. The K(m) value for carboxymethyl (CM) cellulose was 11.6 mg/mL. The enzyme showed high viscosity reducing activity towards CM cellulose but very low activity with Walseth cellulose and crystalline celluloses such as Avicel and cotton. The purified enzyme has activity towards xylan. The amino acid analysis showed a predominance of acidic and neutral amino acids and low contents of histidine, arginine, and methionine. One-half of the cysteine content was 11 residues/mol enzyme, and no free-SH group was detectable. 相似文献

An exo-1,4-beta-glucanase from culture solution of the rot fungus Sporotrichum pulverulentum (formerly called Chrysosporium lignorum) grown on powder cellulose as the sole carbon source has been extensively purified and characterized with respect to some physico-chemical properties. The purification has been carried out in a five-step procedure comprising chromatography on DEAE-Sephadex, gel filtration on polyacrylamide P-150, activation on a Dowex 2-X8 anion exchanger, chromatography on Concanavalin A-Sepharose and chromatography on SP-Sephadex. The purified enzyme was found to be pure and homogeneous by analytical polyacrylamide electrophoresis, by electrophoresis on dodecylsulphate gels and by analytical polyacrylamide electrophoresis, by electrophoresis on dodecylsulphate gels and by analytical isoelectric focusing. A single symmetrical peak was obtained with the free zone electrophoresis method. The purification factor is about 15 and the yield of exo-1,4-beta-glucanase activity 7%. After purification, the enzyme showed no viscosity-decreasing activity towards carboxymethyl-cellulose solutions. The exo-1,4-beta-glucanase was isoelectric at pH 4.3 (4 degrees C). A molecular weight of 48600 was calculated on the basis of a knowledge of the partial specific volume, ultracentrifugation data and the amino acid composition. The enzyme contained no carbohydrate. 相似文献

Summary A novel enzyme degrading hyaluronic acid has been isolated, purified and characterized from Antarctic krill (Euphausia superba). A combination of affinity chromatography (Con A-Sepharose), gel filtration (Superose 6) and fast protein liquid chromatography (Mono Q) was used for the purification. The hyaluronidase activity was determined by a radial diffusion method based on hyaluronic acid incorporated into an agarose gel. Moreover, the beta-glucuronidase and endo-(1,3)-beta-D-glucanase activities were also followed through the process using phenolphtalein mono beta-glucuronic acid and laminarin as substrates. After the final purification step on Mono Q column, the chromatogram showed three main peaks designated A, B and C. Peak C contained high hyaluronidase activity undetectable in peak A and B. The betaglucuronidase activity was associated with peak A, while the endo-(1,3)-beta-D-glucanase activity was found in peak B and slight in peak C. The hyaluronidase was purified about 85-fold. It had a pH optimum of 5.3, a temperature optimum of 37°C and a molecular weight of 80 000 Daltons. On polyacrylamide gradient gel electrophoresis the enzyme fraction showed one major band associated with hyaluronic acid decomposition, slightly contaminated with a few other components. Isoelectric focusing in combination with a hyaluronic acid zymogram demonstrated one major band at pH 6.7 with high enzyme activity. Preliminary data on enzyme specificity suggest that krill hyaluronidase is a new endo-beta-glucuronidase and support the concept of krill enzymes as a remarkable and unusually effective digestive system adapted to the Antarctic marine ecosystem. 相似文献

Two distinct exo-cellobiohydrolases (1,4-β-d-glucan cellobiohydrolase, EC 3.2.1.91) have been isolated from culture filtrates of Fusarium lini by repeated ammonium sulphate fractionation and isoelectric focusing. The purified enzymes were evaluated for physical properties, kinetics and the mechanism of their action. The results of this work were as follows. (1) A two-step enzyme purification procedure was developed, involving isoelectric focusing and ammonium sulphate fractionation. (2) Yields of pure cellobiohydrolases I and II were 45 and 36 mg l?1 of culture broth, respectively. (3) Both enzymes were found to be homogeneous, as determined by ultracentrifugation, isoelectric focusing, electrophoresis in polyacrylamide gels containing SDS and chromatography on Sephadex. (4) The molecular weights of the two cellobiohydrolases, as determined by gel filtration and SDS gel electrophoresis, were 50 000–57 000. (5) Both cellobiohydrolases had low viscosity-reducing and reducing sugar activity from carboxymethyl cellulose and high activity with Walseth cellulose and Avicel. (6) The enzymes produced only cellobiose as the end product from filter paper and Avicel, indicating that they are true cellobiohydrolases. (7) Cellobiohydrolase I hydrolysed d-xylan whereas cellobiohydrolase II was inactive towards d-xylan. (8) There was a striking synergism in filter paper activity when cellobiohydrolase was supplemented with endo-1,4-β-d-glucanase [cellulase, 1,4-(1,3;1,4)-β-d-glucan 4-glucanohydrolase, EC 3.2.1.4] and β-d-glucosidase (β-d-glucoside glucohydrolase, EC 3.2.1.21). 相似文献

Five endo-1,4-beta-glucanases (EC 3.2.1.4) have been separated from culture solutions OF THE ROT FUNGUS Sporotrichum pulverulentum (formerly called Chrysosporium lignorum) grown on powder cellulose as the sole carbon source. They have been extensively purified and characterized with regard to some physicochemical properties. The purifications have been carried out on a quantitative basis, the purity of the enzymes being tested in several ways. After purification they all showed one single protein band in analytical polyacrylamide electrophoresis, on dodecyl-sulphate gels and in analytical isoelectric focusing on flat-bed polyacrylamide gels. One exo-1,4-beta-glucanase has also been identified in the culture solution and separated from the endo-1,4-beta-glucanases. From the data obtained during the quantitative purification it has been possible to calculate that the ratio of activity between the five endoglucanases T1, T2a, T2b, T3a, and T3b in the culture solutions is 4:1:1:1:1. It has also been calculated that the weight ratio endoglucanase protein to exoglucanase protein is approximately 1:1. Flat-bed isoelectric focusing has been used for the identification of the individual endoglucanases and a new zymogram technique, useful for studies of carbohydrases in general, has been developed. The molecular weights, determined by ultracentrifugation, and calculated on the basis of a knowledge of the amino acid composition and carbohydrate content vary between 28200 and 37500. Small but significant differences in the amino acid compositions of the different endoglucanases have been found. The carbohydrate content varies between 0 and 10.5%, all but one of the enzymes being glycoproteins. For two of these the exact carbohydrate composition has been determined. Enzyme T1 contains 2 glucose and 19 mannose units per enzyme molecule while enzyme T2b contains 5 mannose, 7 galactose, 1 glucose and 1 arabinose unit per molecule. 相似文献

1. Ram seminal plasma alpha-glucosidase has been purified in order to increase our knowledge of this enzyme and of its role in epididymal physiology. 2. Since the enzyme behaved differently from other known acid alpha-glucosidases and was not affinity-adsorbed on dextran gels, another approach had to be used. 3. The final procedure included an ethanol precipitation step, sequential chromatography on hydroxylapatite and DEAE Sepharose CL-6B, isoelectric focusing in polyacrylamide gels and ultrafiltration. 4. The resulting purification factor of alpha-glucosidase was 9822 with an overall yield of 5%. 5. The purified material consisted of several isoforms with a mol. wt of 105,000 and isoelectric points varying between 4 and 5. 相似文献

Sensitive detection of endo-1,4-beta-glucanases and endo-1,4-beta-xylanases in gels 总被引:14,自引:0,他引:14
A simple, highly sensitive zymogram technique for detection of endo-1,4-beta-glucanases and endo-1,4-beta-xylanases in polyacrylamide gels after electrophoresis or isoelectric focusing was developed. The detection employs transparent agar replicas containing soluble covalently dyed polysaccharides, hydroxyethylcellulose dyed with Ostazin brilliant red H-3B and beechwood 4-O-methyl-D-glucurono-D-xylan dyed with Remazol brilliant blue R, as the respective substrates. The high sensitivity of the detection is achieved by selective removal of depolymerized dyed substrates from the agar replicas by solvents which neither solubilize nor precipitate the original nondegraded dyed polysaccharides present in the agar gel. 相似文献

Peroxidase (Ec 1.11.1.7) was purified from needles of Pinus pinaster to apparent homogeneity by DE-52 cellulose chromatography with a final recovery of enzyme activity of about 85%. The purified enzyme (A402/A275 = 1.05) had a specific activity of about 948 U/mg of protein and ran as a single protein band both on SDS-PAGE and native PAGE with Mr of 37,000 and 151,000, respectively. Both native PAGE and isoelectric focusing gels of the purified enzyme were stained for activity which coincided with the protein band. The pI of the purified enzyme was found to be 3.2 by isoelectric focusing on an ultrathin polyacrylamide gel. The enzyme has an optimum pH of activity of 5.0 and temperature optimum of 30 degrees C. Stability studies of the enzyme as a function of pH and temperature suggest that it is most stable at pH 5.0 and 0-40 degrees C, respectively. 相似文献

An alpha-mannosidase has been purified from the coleoptiles of Avena sativa L. var. Segrehavre. The enzyme, which is tightly associated with the cell wall, was solubilized with 3 m LiCl. The purification involves precipitation with (NH(4))(2)SO(4), gel filtration, ion exchange chromatography, and isoelectric focusing. The enzyme appears homogeneous when chromatographed on disc gels and on isoelectric focusing gels. The enzyme runs as a single protein of constant specific activity when chromatographed on Sephadex G-200. The estimated molecular weight of the enzyme is 630,000. The enzyme appears to have no metal ion cofactor requirement and is insensitive to p-chloromercuribenzoate. The pH optimum for the enzyme with p-nitrophenyl-alpha-d-mannoside as the substrate is 4.5 and the K(m) is 3.2 mm. The enzyme may have some carbohydrate associated with it as indicated by a positive periodate-Schiff reaction on disc gels. 相似文献

The enzymic degradation of an alkali-soluble glucan from the cell walls of Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
An alkali-soluble glucan from the cell walls of Saccharomyces cerevisiae NCYC1109 has been hydrolysed with a purified endo-(1 leads to 3)-beta-D-glucanase and an endo-(1 leads to 6)-beta-D-glucanase from Bacillus circulans WL-12. The products of enzyme action include various oligosaccharide and polysaccharide fractions which have been separated by gel filtration and characterized, giving new information on the fine structure of the glucan. The isolated cell walls have also been subjected to enzymic hydrolysis. The results suggest that part of the cell-wall mannan is held in place by a glucan component. 相似文献

The heterogeneity of histidine decarboxylase from rat gastric mucosa was studied. The partially purified enzyme was fractionated by preparative isoelectric focusing on a flat-gel bed by using narrow pH-range carrier ampholytes and a short focusing time. The activity was resolved, with about 95% recovery, into three forms, designated I, II and III, with pI values of 5.90, 5.60 and 5.35 respectively. These three forms exhibited similar molecular weights, indicating that the forms were not the result of different degrees of polymerization. By preparative refocusing each form refocused as a single peak of enzyme activity with reproducible pI, but a high loss of activity occurred with repeated focusing. Forms I, II and III were purified by the combined use of preparative isoelectric focusing and gel chromatography and other fractionation methods. The active forms could be distinguished by electrophoresis and isoelectric focusing on polyacrylamide gels and displayed protein heterogeneity. These forms were found in the crude extract and in the partially purified preparations in the presence or absence of proteinase inhibitors. Form II had the highest specific activity, but all three forms had the same optimum pH and Km value for histidine. 相似文献

gamma-Butyrobetaine hydroxylase [4-trimethylaminobutyrate, 2-oxoglutarate:oxygen oxidoreductase (3-hydroxylating), EC 1.14.11.1] from human kidney was resolved into three forms by chromatofocusing. After further chromatography on an anion-exchanger, each form appeared as a single band on electrophoresis in polyacrylamide gel containing sodium dodecyl sulphate. The isoelectric points of isoenzymes 1, 2 and 3 were 5.6, 5.7 and 5.8 respectively, as estimated by isoelectric focusing. Their specific activities were 17-29 mu kat/g of protein. The concentrations of the three isoenzymes were about equal, possibly slightly lower for isoenzyme 1. The requirement for Fe2+ and the Km values for gamma-butyrobetaine and 2-oxoglutarate were about the same for the different enzyme forms. L- and D-Carnitine caused decarboxylation of 2-oxoglutarate to the same extent (8 and 29%) with the three forms. The enzyme forms had the same mass, 64 kDa, as determined by gel filtration in nondenaturing media. The same subunit mass, 42 kDa, was obtained for the multiple forms by electrophoresis in polyacrylamide gels containing sodium dodecyl sulphate. Isoenzyme 2 was resolved into two protein bands by isoelectric focusing in polyacrylamide gels containing urea. Isoenzyme 1 contained only one of these bands and isoenzyme 3 the other. The three enzyme forms of gamma-butyrobetaine hydroxylase thus appear to be dimeric combinations of two subunits differing in charge but not in size. gamma-Butyrobetaine hydroxylase from crude extracts of human, rat and calf liver was also separated into multiple forms by a chromatofocusing technique. The isoenzyme pattern was the same in human liver and kidney. The technique used to resolve the mammalian enzymes gave no evidence for the presence of multiple forms of the bacterial enzyme from Pseudomonas sp. AK 1. 相似文献

A unique acid proteinase different from cathepsin D was purified from rat spleen by a method involving precipitation at pH 3.5, affinity chromatography on pepstatin-Sepharose 4B and concanavalin A-Sepharose 4B, chromatography on Sephadex G-100 and DEAE-Sephacel, and isoelectric focusing. A purification of 4200-fold over the homogenate was achieved and the yield was 11%. The purified enzyme appeared to be homogeneous on electrophoresis in polyacrylamide gels. The isoelectric point of the enzyme was determined to be 4.1-4.4. The enzyme hydrolyzed hemoglobin with a pH optimum of about 3.1. The molecular weight of the enzyme was estimated to be about 90000 by gel filtration on Sephadex G-100. In sodium dodecylsulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, the purified enzyme showed a single protein band corresponding to a molecular weight of about 45000. The hydrolysis of bovine hemoglobin by the enzyme was much higher than that of serum albumin. Various synthetic and natural inhibitors of the enzyme were tested. The enzyme was inhbited by Zn2+, Fe3+, Pb2+, cyanide, p-chloromercuribenzoate, iodoacetic acid and pepstatin, whereas 2-mercaptoethanol, phenylmethyl-sulfonyl fluoride and leupeptin showed no effect. 相似文献

Phosphoglycolate phosphatase (EC 3.1.3.18) was purified 1500-fold from field-grown tobacco leaves by acetone fractionation, DEAE-cellulose and molecular sieve chromatography, and preparative polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Preparations were judged 90 to 95% homogeneous by chromatography on DEAE-cellulose, polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, and by isoelectric focusing. The highest specific activity obtained was 468 mumol of phosphate released/min/mg of protein. The native protein has a molecular weight of 80,500 by Ferguson plot analysis and 86,300 by sedimentation velocity on sucrose density gradients. Sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gels gave a molecular weight of 20,700, indicating the P-glycolate phosphatase is a tetramer with identical or near identical subunits. The enzyme, freshly purified or in crude homogenates, had a pI of 3.8 to 3.9 pH units by isoelectric focusing. Phosphosphoglycolate phosphatase from spinach leaves has a molecular weight of 93,000 and, unlike the enzyme from tobacco leaves, it is extremely unstable after DEAE-cellulose chromatography and is inactivated by lipase (EC 3.1.1.3). The phosphatase from both plants was stabilized by the addition of citrate or isocitrate in the buffers. Ribose 5-phosphate is a competitive inhibitor of phosphoglycolate phosphatase at physiological concentration, while other phosphate esters of the photosynthetic carbon cycle were without effect. 相似文献

One-step purification and properties of catalase from leaves of Zantedeschia aethiopica 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Catalase (E.C 1.11.1.6) was purified from leaves of Zandedeschia aethiopica to apparent homogeneity by a one-step hydrophobic interaction chromatography on a phenyl Sepharose CL-4B column. The purified enzyme preparation was obtained with a final recovery of enzyme activity of about 61% and a specific activity of 146 U/mg protein. The purified enzyme ran as a single protein band when analyzed both by native PAGE and SDS-PAGE corresponding to an Mr of 220,000 Da, which consists of 4 subunits with identical Mr of 54,000 Da. The pI of purified enzyme was found to be 5.2 by isoelectric focusing on ultrathin polyacrylamide gels. The purified catalase has an optimum temperature of activity at 40 degrees C, whereas it is stable between 0 degrees and 50 degrees C. As regards pH, the enzyme has an optimum activity at pH 7.0 and it is stable in the range pH 6-8. The absorption spectrum of the purified enzyme exhibited 2 peaks at 280 nm and 405 nm. 相似文献

The NAD+-dependent cytosolic glyceralehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH; EC 1.2.1.12) was purified from the skeletal muscle of European pilchard Sardina pilchardus and its physicochemical and kinetic properties were investigated. The purification method consisted of two steps, ammonium sulfate fractionation followed by Blue Sepharose CL-6B chromatography, resulting in an approximately 78-fold increase in specific activity and a final yield of approximately 25%. The Michaelis constants (Kin) for NAD+ and D-glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate were 92.0 μM and 73.4 μM, respectively. The maximal velocity (Vmax) of the purified enzyme was estimated to be 37.6 U/mg. Under the assay conditions, the optimum pH and temperature were 8.0 and 30 ℃. The molecular weight of the purified enzyme was 37 kDa determined by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Non-denaturing polyacrylamide gels yielding a molecular weight of 154 kDa suggested that the enzyme is a homotetramer. Polyclonal antibodies against the purified enzyme were used to recognize the enzyme in different sardine tissues by Western blot analysis. The isoelectric point, obtained by an isoelectric focusing system in polyacrylamide slab gels, revealed only one GAPDH isoform (pI 7.9). 相似文献

Prenyltransferase (EC 2.5.1.1) has been purified to homogeneity from the supernatant fraction of yeast by ammonium sulfate fractionation, diethylaminoethyl-cellulose and hydroxylapatite chromatography, and column isoelectric focusing techniques. The active enzyme from isoelectric focusing columns emerged as a single symmetrical peak with specific activities 15- to 35-fold higher than previously reported preparations. The enzyme was found to be homogeneous by continuous polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis at pH 8.4 and discontinuous polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis at pH 6.9 as well as sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide electrophoresis at pH 7.0. By means of gel chromatography and sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, the protein was shown to be a dimer with a molecular weight of 84,000 plus or minus 10%. The isoelectric point of the enzyme was determined to be 5.3. The enzyme synthesizes farnesyl and geranylgeranyl pyrophosphates from dimethylallyl, geranyl, and farnesyl pyrophosphates. Michaelis constants for the enzyme were 4, 8, and 14 mu M for isopentenyl, dimethylallyl, and geranyl pyrophosphates, respectively. 相似文献

β-Galactosidase (EC 3.2.1.23) activity in barley ( Hordeum vulgare ) seedlings increases moderately during the first stages of germination. The level of activity in the whole seedling is the result of increasing activity of β-galactosidase in the roots and shoots and of declining enzyme activity in the grain. β-Galactosidase was purified during different developmental stages and from various parts of the barley seedling using affinity chromatography and was resolved into multiple forms by isoelectric focusing on polyacrylamide gels. The expression of the isoforms was shown to be under temporal and tissue-specific control. Four sets of isozymes were separated by DEAE-cellulose chromatography and were shown to be functionally similar. β-Galactosidase isoforms also exhibit size microheterogeneity, the more acidic entities having higher molecular masses. The differences in molecular weight are mainly restricted to the size of the small subunit. Multiplicity can not be attributed to glycosylation, since treatment of the enzyme preparation with N- or O-glycanase did not alter the isoelectric points or the molecular weights of the isoforms. 相似文献

A specific histidine decarboxylase from rat gastric mucosa has been obtained at high purity and good yield (purification about 600-fold). The purification procedure included double (NH4)2SO4 fractionation, ion-exchange chromatography, preparative isoelectric focusing in a granulated gel and gel filtration. Only the specific histidine enzyme was obtained by that procedure; DOPA decarboxylase, a non-specific enzyme, was absent in our final preparation. Each step of the purification was visualized by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and analytical isoelectric focusing. The purified enzyme was apparently homogenous by criteria of electrophoresis and gel filtration and has a molecular weight of 94 000. Several protein bands appeared after isoelectric focusing and the enzyme activity was localized in 3 distinct peaks. The gastric enzyme consists of 3 active forms which could be distinguished by their isoelectric points: 5.4, 5.75 and 6. Moleculare weights estimated by SDS polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis were 97 000, 93 000 and 90 000, and no subunits were observed. Pyridoxal phosphate was required as a coenzyme and resolution of the holoenzyme agreed with a portion of the coenzyme tightly bound to the apoenzyme. The purified enzyme was stable at low ionic strength, near neutral pH; concentrated reducing agents inhibit the enzyme. 相似文献
