Phosphorylation of lignin peroxidases from Phanerochaete chrysosporium. Identification of mannose 6-phosphate 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Many of the extracellular lignin-degrading peroxidases from the wood-degrading fungus Phanerochaete chrysosporium are phosphorylated. Immunoprecipitation of the extracellular fluid of cultures grown with H2K32PO4 with a polyclonal antibody raised against one of the lignin peroxidase isozymes, H8 (pI 3.5), revealed the incorporation of H2K32PO4 into lignin peroxidases. Analyses of the purified isozymes from labeled cultures by isoelectric focusing showed that, in addition to isozyme H8, lignin peroxidase isozymes H2 (pI 4.4), H6 (pI 3.7), and H10 (pI 3.3) are also phosphorylated. These analyses also showed that lignin peroxidase isozyme H1 (pI 4.7) and manganese-dependent peroxidase isozymes H3 (pI 4.9) and H4 (pI 4.5) are not phosphorylated. Phosphate quantitation indicated the presence of one molecule of phosphate/molecule of enzyme for all of the phosphorylated isozymes. To locate the site of phosphorylation, one-dimensional phosphoamino acid analysis was performed with hydrolyzed 32P-protein. However, phosphotyrosine, phosphoserine, and phosphothreonine could not be identified. Coupled enzyme assays of acid hydrolysate indicated the presence of mannose 6-phosphate as the phosphorylated component on the lignin peroxidase isozymes. Digestion of the isozymes with N-glycanase released the phosphate component, indicating that the mannose 6-phosphate is contained on an asparagine-linked oligosaccharide. 相似文献

Phanerochaete chrysosporium is a white rot fungus which secretes a family of lignin-degrading enzymes under nutrient limitation. In this work, we investigated the roles of veratryl alcohol and lignin in the ligninolytic system of P. chrysosporium BKM-F-1767 cultures grown under nitrogen-limited conditions. Cultures supplemented with 0.4 to 2 mM veratryl alcohol showed increased lignin peroxidase activity. Addition of veratryl alcohol had no effect on Mn-dependent peroxidase activity and inhibited glyoxal oxidase activity. Azure-casein analysis of acidic proteases in the extracellular fluid showed that protease activity decreased during the early stages of secondary metabolism while lignin peroxidase activity was at its peak, suggesting that proteolysis was not involved in the regulation of lignin peroxidase activity during early secondary metabolism. In cultures supplemented with lignin or veratryl alcohol, no induction of mRNA coding for lignin peroxidase H2 or H8 was observed. Veratryl alcohol protected lignin peroxidase isozymes H2 and H8 from inactivation by H2O2. We conclude that veratryl alcohol acts as a stabilizer of lignin peroxidase activity and not as an inducer of lignin peroxidase synthesis. 相似文献

Lignin and Mn peroxidases are two families of isozymes produced by the lignin-degrading fungus Phanerochaete chrysosporium under nutrient nitrogen or carbon limitation. We purified to homogeneity the three major Mn peroxidase isozymes, H3 (pI = 4.9), H4 (pI = 4.5), and H5 (pI = 4.2). Amino-terminal sequencing of these isozymes demonstrates that they are encoded by different genes. We also analyzed the regulation of these isozymes in carbon- and nitrogen-limited cultures and found not only that the lignin and Mn peroxidases are differentially regulated but also that differential regulation occurs within the Mn peroxidase isozyme family. The isozyme profile and the time at which each isozyme appears in secondary metabolism differ in both nitrogen- and carbon-limited cultures. Each isozyme also responded differently to the addition of a putative inducer, divalent Mn. The stability of the Mn peroxidases in carbon- and nitrogen-limited cultures was also characterized after cycloheximide addition. The Mn peroxidases are more stable in carbon-limited cultures than in nitrogen-limited cultures. They are also more stable than the lignin peroxidases. These data collectively suggest that the Mn peroxidase isozymes serve different functions in lignin biodegradation. 相似文献

Five isozymes of lignin peroxidase from Phanerochaete chrysosporium were purified and their physical, molecular and kinetic properties determined. The isozymes differ from each other in terms of their isoelectric point, molecular mass, sugar content, spectral characteristics, substrate specificity and stability. The N-terminal sequence of amino acids was different for each isozyme suggesting they are different gene products. The isozyme with the highest carbohydrate level was most sensitive to changes in environmental factors. The kinetic behaviour of the isozymes varied clearly when tert-butyl hydroperoxide instead of hydrogen peroxide was used as the oxidant. Two out of five isozymes had very similar substrate specificity. The results are discussed in relation to the role which lignin peroxidase isozymes may play in lignin biodegradation. 相似文献

Oxidation-reduction potentials and ionization states of extracellular peroxidases from the lignin-degrading fungus Phanerochaete chrysosporium 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
The oxidation-reduction potentials of lignin peroxidase isozymes H1, H2, H8, and H10 as well as the Mn-dependent peroxidase isozymes H3 and H4 are reported. The potentiometric titrations involving the ferrous and ferric states of the enzyme had Nernst plots indicating single-electron transfer. The Em7 values of lignin peroxidase isozymes H1, H2, H8, and H10 are -142, -135, -137, and -127 mV versus standard hydrogen electrode, respectively. The Em7 values for the Mn-dependent peroxidase isozymes H3 and H4 are -88 and -93 mV versus standard hydrogen electrode, respectively. The midpoint potential of H1, H8, and H4 remained unchanged in the presence of their respective substrates, veratryl alcohol and Mn(II). The midpoint potential between the ferric and ferrous forms of isozymes H1 and H4 exhibited a pH-dependent change between pH 3.5 and pH 6.5. These results indicate that the reductive half-reaction of the enzymes is the following: ferric peroxidase + le- + H+----ferrous peroxidase. Above pH 6.5, the effect of pH on the midpoint potential is diminished and indicates that an ionization with an apparent pKa equal to approximately 6.6-6.7 occurs in the reduced form of the enzymes. A heme-linked ionization group in the ferrous form of the enzymes was confirmed by studying the effect of pH on the absorption spectra of isozymes H1 and H4. These spectrophotometric pH titration experiments confirmed the electrochemical results indicating pKa values of 6.59 and 6.69 for reduced isozymes H1 and H4, respectively. These results indicate the presence of a heme-linked ionization of an amino acid in the reduced form of the lignin peroxidase isozymes similar to that of other plant peroxidases. 相似文献

The objective of the present study was to investigate the correlation of soluble apoplastic peroxidase activity with lignification in needles of field-grown Norway spruce (Picea abies L.) trees. Apoplastic peroxidases (EC 1.11.1.7) were obtained by vacuum infiltration of needles. The lignin content of isolated cell walls was determined by the acetyl bromide method. Accumulation of lignin and seasonal variations of apoplastic peroxidase activities were studied in the first year of needle development. The major phase of lignification started after bud break and was terminated about 4 weeks later. This phase correlated with a transient increase in apoplastic guaiacol and coniferyl alcohol peroxidase activity. NADH oxidase activity, which is thought to sustain peroxidase activity by production of H2O2, peaked sharply after bud break and decreased during the lignification period. Histochemical localization of peroxidase with guaiacol indicated that high activities were present in lignifying cell walls. In mature needles, lignin was localized in walls of most needle tissues including mesophyll cells, and corresponded to 80 to 130 [mu]mol lignin monomers/g needle dry weight. Isoelectric focusing of apoplastic washing fluids and activity staining with guaiacol showed the presence of strongly alkaline peroxidases (isoelectric point [greater than or equal to] 9) in all developmental stages investigated. New isozymes with isoelectric points of 7.1 and 8.1 appeared during the major phase of lignification. These isozymes disappeared after lignification was terminated. A strong increase in peroxidase activity in autumn was associated with the appearance of acidic peroxidases (isoelectric point [less than or equal to] 3). These results suggest that soluble alkaline apoplastic peroxidases participate in lignin formation. Soluble acidic apoplastic peroxidases were apparently unrelated to developmentally regulated lignification in spruce needles. 相似文献

Recombinant Phanerochaete chrysosporium lignin peroxidase isozyme H2 (pI 4.4) was produced in insect cells infected with a genetically engineered baculovirus containing a copy of the cDNA clone lambda ML-6. The recombinant enzyme was purified to near homogeneity and is capable of oxidizing veratryl alcohol, iodide, and, to a lesser extent, guaiacol. The Km of the recombinant enzyme for veratryl alcohol and H2O2 is similar to that of the fungal enzyme. The guaiacol oxidation activity or any other activity is not dependent upon Mn2+. The purified recombinant peroxidase is glycosylated with N-linked carbohydrate(s). The recombinant lignin peroxidase eluted from an anion exchange resin similar to that of native isozyme H1 rather than H2. However, the pI of the recombinant enzymes is different from both H1 and H2 isozymes. Further characterization of native isozymes H1 and H2 from the fungal cultures revealed identical N-terminus residues. This indicates that isozymes H1 and H2 differ in post-translational modification. 相似文献

The extracellular lignin peroxidase (LIP) protein profile of the fungus Phanerochaete chrysosporium, grown in nonimmersed liquid culture under conditions of excess nitrogen, changed markedly with culture age. At peak LIP activity (day 4), the heme-protein profile in the extracellular fluid, analyzed by anion-exchange high-pressure liquid chromatography, was characterized by a predominance of the LIP isozymes H1 and H2, small amounts of H6 and H8, and other minor peaks, designated Ha and Hb. On day 5, the level of H1 increased and it became the dominant isozyme, with a corresponding decrease in the level of H2. Moreover, the relative levels of H6 and H8 decreased with corresponding increases in Ha and Hb levels. This change in LIP profile occurred extracellularly and resulted from the enzymatic dephosphorylation of LIP isozymes. An enzymatic fraction responsible for LIP isozyme dephosphorylation, termed LIP dephosphorylating (LpD) fraction, was partially purified from the culture fluid. Incubation of the LpD fraction with (sup32)P-labeled H2, H6, H8, and H10 isozymes separated from nitrogen-limited cultures resulted in the formation of the dephosphorylated isozymes H1, Ha, Hb, and Hc, respectively. Dephosphorylation did not significantly change the catalytic properties of the LIP isozymes with veratryl alcohol as a substrate. LIP dephosphorylation is therefore suggested to be a posttranslational modification process catalyzed extracellularly by the LpD activity. 相似文献

The glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (gpd) promoter was used to drive expression of lip2, the gene encoding lignin peroxidase (LiP) isozyme H8, in primary metabolic cultures of Phanerochaete chrysosporium. The expression vector, pUGL, also contained the Schizophyllum commune ura1 gene as a selectable marker. pUGL was used to transform a P. chrysosporium Ura11 auxotroph to prototrophy. Ura+ transformants were screened for peroxidase activity in liquid cultures containing high-carbon and high-nitrogen medium. Recombinant LiP (rLiP) was secreted in active form by the transformants after 4 days of growth, whereas endogenous lip genes were not expressed under these conditions. Approximately 2 mg of homogeneous rLiP/liter was obtained after purification. The molecular mass, pI, and optical absorption spectrum of rLiPH8 were essentially identical to those of the wild-type LiPh8 (wt LiPH8), indicating that heme insertion, folding, and secretion functioned normally in the transformant. Steady-state and transient-state kinetic properties for the oxidation of veratryl alcohol between wtLiPH8 and rLiPH8 were also identical. 相似文献

The wild-type ligninolytic actinomycete Streptomyces viridosporus T7A and two genetically manipulated strains with enhanced abilities to produce a water-soluble lignin degradation intermediate, an acid-precipitable polymeric lignin (APPL), were grown on lignocellulose in solid-state fermentation cultures. Culture filtrates were periodically collected, analyzed for APPL, and assayed for extracellular lignocellulose-catabolizing enzyme activities. Isoenzymes were analyzed by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and activity staining on the gels. Two APPL-overproducing strains, UV irradiation mutant T7A-81 and protoplast fusion recombinant SR-10, had higher and longer persisting peroxidase, esterase, and endoglucanase activities than did the wild-type strain T7A. Results implicated one or more of these enzymes in lignin solubilization. Only mutant T7A-81 had higher xylanase activity than the wild type. The peroxidase was induced by both lignocellulose and APPL. This extracellular enzyme has some similarities to previously described ligninases in fungi. This is the first report of such an enzyme in Streptomyces spp. Four peroxidase isozymes were present, and all catalyzed the oxidation of 3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine, while one also catalyzed hydrogen peroxide-dependent oxidation of homoprotocatechuic acid and caffeic acid. Three constitutive esterase isozymes were produced which differed in substrate specificity toward α-naphthyl acetate and α-naphthyl butyrate. Three endoglucanase bands, which also exhibited a low level of xylanase activity, were identified on polyacrylamide gels as was one xylanase-specific band. There were no major differences in the isoenzymes produced by the different strains. The probable role of each enzyme in lignocellulose degradation is discussed. 相似文献

Two cDNA clones encoding lignin peroxidase isozymes from Phanerochaete chrysosporium have been isolated and characterized. One of the clones, lambda ML-4, encodes isozyme H8 as does the previously reported clone lambda ML-1 [Tien, M. and Tu, C.-P.D. Nature 326 (1987) 520-523; 328, 742]. Our data are consistent with lambda ML-1 and lambda ML-4 being allelic variants. The other clone, lambda ML-5, encodes a homologous isozyme. We have also isolated the genomic clone corresponding to lambda ML-4 cDNA. Conserved residues thought to be essential for peroxidase function were identified in the predicted amino acid sequences of both cDNA clones. Northern blot analyses indicate that these isozymes are expressed during secondary metabolism, appearing on day 4 of growth and increasing on days 5 and 6. 相似文献

The oxycomplexes (compound III, oxyperoxidase) of two lignin peroxidase isozymes, H1 (pI = 4.7) and H8 (pI = 3.5), were characterized in the present study. After generation of the ferroperoxidase by photochemical reduction with deazoflavin in the presence of EDTA, the oxycomplex is formed by mixing ferroperoxidase with O2. The oxycomplex of isozyme H8 is very stable, with an autoxidation rate at 25 degrees C too slow to measure at pH 3.5 or 7.0. In contrast, the oxycomplex of isozyme H1 has a half-life of 52 min at pH 4.5 and 29 min at pH 7.5 at 25 degrees C. The decay of isozyme H1 oxycomplex follows a single exponential. The half-lives of lignin peroxidase oxycomplexes are much longer than those observed with other peroxidases. The binding of O2 to ferroperoxidase to form the oxycomplex was studied by stopped-flow methods. At 20 degrees C, the second-order rate constants for O2 binding are 2.3 X 10(5) and 8.9 X 10(5) M-1 s-1 for isozyme H1 and 6.2 X 10(4) and 3.5 X 10(5) M-1 s-1 for isozyme H8 at pH 3.6 and pH 6.8, respectively. The dissociation rate constants for the oxycomplex of isozyme H1 (3.8 Z 10(-3) s-1) and isozyme H8 (1.0 X 10(-3) s-1) were measured at pH 3.6 by CO trapping. Thus, the equilibrium constants (K, calculated from kon/koff) for both isozymes H1 (7.0 X 10(7) M-1) and H8 (6.2 X 10(7) M-1) are higher than that of myoglobin (1.9 Z 10(6) M-1).(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

The effects of adding some inducers of lignolytic activity to semi-solid-state cultures of Phanerochaete chrysosporium BKM-F-1767 (ATCC 24725) were investigated. The inducers assayed were veratryl alcohol and solid manganese (IV) oxide. The microorganism was cultured on corncob, which functioned both as physical support and source of nutrients. Supplementing the cultures with veratryl alcohol created the situation where manganese-dependent peroxidase (MnP) and lignin peroxidase (LiP) activities of approximately 1,500 U/l and 200 U/l, respectively, could be attained. These activities were considerably higher than those obtained in the reference cultures (about 5 and 4-fold). In the same way, the addition of manganese (IV) oxide led to MnP and LiP activity levels of about 2,000 U/l and 300 U/l, respectively. These activities were also notably above (about 6 and 5-fold, respectively) those achieved in the reference cultures. Moreover, laccase activity (around 200 U/l) was only detected in veratryl alcohol or manganese (IV) oxide supplemented cultures. 相似文献

Suspension cultures of castor bean (Ricinus communis L.) which have been treated with pectic fragment elicitor rapidly accumulate lignin as measured by derivatization with thioglycolic acid. The responsiveness of cultured cells to elicitor is dependent on the stage of culture growth. In 6-day (maximally responsive) cultures, increases in lignin are first evident 3 hours after addition of pectic fragment elicitor with maximal rates of lignin synthesis between 4 and 10 hours. The abundance of lignin in cultures after 12 hours of elicitor treatment is 10- to 20-fold higher than in untreated control cultures and can thereby account for as much as 2% of the dry cell weight. Only intermediate sizes of pectic oligomer are active as elicitors of lignin. Half-maximal accumulation of lignin occurs at 250 to 300 micrograms per milliliter of an optimal elicitor preparation with an average degree of polymerization of seven. We consider the synthesis of lignin in elicited cultures to be a mechanism of plant disease resistance which is induced by the elicitor. Plant peroxidases have been proposed to catalyze the last enzymatic steps in the biosynthesis of both lignin and hydrogen peroxide. Six extracellular isoenzymes of peroxidase (two anionic, designated A1 and A2, and four cationic, designated C2, C3, C4, and C7) are detectable in healthy suspension cultures of castor bean by native gel electrophoresis. Treatment of cultures with elicitor causes substantial changes in the activity of four of these species (A1, C2, C3, and C7). Elicitor treatment also results in the appearance of three new peroxidase isoenzymes that are not readily detectable in healthy cultures (C1, C5, and C6). Increases in the activities of these isoenzymes are concurrent with or slightly precede the accumulation of lignin in elicited 6-day cultures. By 12 hours after addition of elicitor, C1 becomes the most abundant extracellular isoperoxidase. The differential regulation of expression of peroxidase isoenzymes following elicitor treatment suggests that individual isoenzymes of peroxidase may have specific functional roles in the biosynthesis of disease-lignin. 相似文献

Methods based on UV-visible diffuse reflectance spectroscopy were used to study the physiological aspects of lignin-peroxidase biosynthesis by Phanerochaete chrysosporium. Here we introduce the use of cytochrome aa3 as an indicator of active fungal biomass and of its redox state to calculate the oxygen mass transport coefficient between the growth medium and the fungal cell interior. When lignin peroxidase biosynthesis was enhanced by the addition of Tween 80 or Tween 20 to the growth medium, a higher proportion of reduced cytochrome aa3 and a higher oxygen diffusion barrier were observed compared with control cultures. In cultures supplemented with Tween 80 or Tween 20, a higher oxygen mass transport coefficient between the growth medium and the interior of the fungal cell was also found. The beginning of the lignin peroxidase activity in these cultures was found to coincide with a temporary cessation in the dry biomass increase and a reduction in the relative active-biomass concentration. During the lignin peroxidase activity, a decrease in the intracellular pH and an increase in the growth medium pH were determined in cultures supplemented with Tween 80. 相似文献

The combined effects of Mn and oxygen on lignin peroxidase (LIP) activity and isozyme composition in Phanerochaete chrysosporium were studied by using shallow stationary cultures grown in the presence of limited or excess N. When no Mn was added, LIP was formed in both N-limited and N-excess cultures exposed to air, but no LIP activity was observed at Mn concentrations greater than 13 mg/liter. In oxygen-flushed, N-excess cultures, LIP was formed at all Mn concentrations, and the peak LIP activity values in the extracellular fluid were nearly identical in the presence of Mn concentrations ranging from 3 to 1,500 mg/liter. When the availability of oxygen to cultures exposed to air was increased by growing the fungus under nonimmersed liquid conditions, higher levels of Mn were needed to suppress LIP formation compared with the levels needed in shallow stationary cultures. The composition of LIP isozymes was affected by the levels of N and Mn. Addition of veratryl alcohol to cultures exposed to air did not eliminate the suppressive effect of Mn on LIP formation. A deficiency of Mn in N-excess cultures resulted in lower biomass and a lower rate of glucose consumption than in the presence of Mn. In addition, almost no activity of the antioxidant enzyme Mn superoxide dismutase was observed in Mn-deficient, N-excess cultures, but the activity of this enzyme increased as the Mn concentration increased from 3 to 13 mg/liter. No Zn/Cu superoxide dismutase activity was observed in N-excess cultures regardless of the Mn concentration. 相似文献

The peroxidase activities of developing pea seedlings were determinedwith several substrates including three phenolic compounds,eugenol, caffeic acid and ferulic acid, which are possible precursorsin the biosynthesis of lignin. Column chromatography of thereaction products of peroxidase with caffeic and ferulic acidsindicates the formation of larger molecular weight complexesof these substrates. The peroxidase isozymes of peas were shownto be heterogenous both in molecular weight and in substratespecificity. Apparent Km determinations of two isolated isozymesindicate differences in affinities for various substrates. Starchgel zymograms with two different substrates also indicate largedifferences in staining intensities of the different isozymes.The observed pattern of changes in peroxidase level in the developingpea seedling differed according to substrate. For example, whencaffeic acid is the hydrogen donor, a large increase in activitywas observed in the 6th to 8th day of germination. This peakof activity was not observed with other substrates.

Hybrid aspen (Populus tremula x tremuloides) cell cultures were grown for 7, 14 and 21 days. The cell cultures formed primary cell walls but no secondary cell wall according to carbohydrate analysis and microscopic characterization. The primary walls were lignified, increasingly with age, according to Klason lignin analysis. Presence of lignin in the primary walls, with a higher content in 21-day old cells than in 7-day old cells, was further supported by phloroglucinol/HCl reagent test and confocal microscopy after both immunolocalization and staining with acriflavin. Both laccase and peroxidase activity were found in the cultures and the activity increased during lignin formation. The lignin from the cell culture material was compared to lignin from mature aspen wood, where most of the lignin originates in the secondary cell wall, and which served as our secondary cell wall control. Lignin from the cell walls was isolated and characterized by thioacidolysis followed by gas chromatography and mass spectrometry. The lignin in the cell cultures differed from lignin of mature aspen wood in that it consisted exclusively of guaiacyl units, and had a more condensed structure. Five lignin structures were identified by mass spectrometry in the cell suspension cultures. The results indicate that the hybrid aspen cell culture used in this investigation may be a convenient experimental system for studies of primary cell wall lignin. 相似文献
