The C1 component from Fusarium solani cellulase was purified extensively by molecular-sieve chromatography on Ultrogel AcA-54 and ion-exchange chromatography on DEAE-Sephadex. The purified component showed little capacity for hydrolysing highly ordered substrates (e.g., cotton fibre), but poorly ordered substrates (e.g., H3PO4-swollen cellulose), and the soluble cello-oligosaccharides cellotetraose and cellohexaose, were readily hydrolysed; cellobiose was the principal product in each case. Attack on O-(carboxymethyl)cellulose, a substrate widely used for measuring the activity of the randomly acting enzymes (Cx enzymes) of the cellulase complex, was minimal, and ceased after the removal of a few unsubstituted residues from the end of the chain. These observations, and the fact that the rate of change of degree of polymerisation of H3PO4-swollen cellulose was very slow compared with that effected by the randomly acting endoglucanases (Cx, CM-cellulases), indicate that C1 is a cellobiohydrolase. Fractionation by a variety of methods gave no evidence for the non-identity of the cellobiohydrolase and the component that acted in synergism with the randomly acting Cx enzyme when solubilizing cotton fibre.  相似文献

Occurrence of cellulase activity was demonstrated in the filtrates of germinating conidiospores and growing mycelia of P. oryzae. Activity and some properties of cellulase in the filtrate of mycelia grown on rice plant powder as carbon source were compared among various strains.

Cellulase activity (C1 and Cx enzymes; cellulose and carboxymethylcellulose as substrates, respectively) in the filtrate of germinating conidiospores was detected in the pathogenic T–l (Ken 53–33) strain as well as nonpathogenic 0 (THU 3 × 1) strain of P. oryzae. The activity was higher in the former than the latter strains. Cellulase activity (Cx enzyme) in the filtrate of growing mycelia was detected in the four strains used, T–l (Ken 53–33), C–3 (N 87), N–1 (H373), and 0 (THU 3 × 1). Cellulase activity (Cx enzyme) in the filtrate of mycelia was optimal at pH 5.0 and 40°C, and stable up to 40°C. Their properties did not differ significantly except for the pH-activity curve at alkaline side among various strains; but cellulase activity (C1 enzyme) was found to be correlated with their pathogenicity except for the case of C–3 strain.  相似文献

The effects of culture filtrates of Rhizoctonia solani and root exudates of R. solani-infected cotton (Gossypium hirsutum) seedlings on hatching of eggs and infectivity of females of Rotylenchulus reniformis were evaluated in an attempt to account for the enhanced nematode reproduction observed in the presence of this fungus. Crude filtrates of R. solani cultures growing over sterile, deionized distilled water did not affect egg hatching. Exudates from roots of cotton seedlings increased hatching of R. reniformis eggs over that observed in water controls. Exudates from cotton seedling roots not infected or infected with R. solani did not differ in their effect on egg hatching. However, infection of cotton seedlings by reniform females was increased in the presence of R. solani, resulting in the augmented egg production and juvenile population densities in soil observed in greenhouse studies.  相似文献

Carbohydrate esters of ferulic acid were released from grass cell-walls by cellulase action as a mixture of at least four H2O-soluble compounds in which the carboxylic group of the acid was bound to carbohydrate by ester bonds. The MW of these esters varied from a few hundred to over 50 000. Hydrolysis of one of the carbohydrate moieties showed that it contained xylose, arabinose and glucose units. The linkage of the carbohydrate esters of ferulic acid to other cell-wall constituents is discussed.  相似文献

The in vitro production of chitinases and β-1,3-glucanases by Stachybotrys elegans, a mycoparasite of Rhizoctonia solani, was examined under various culture conditions, such as carbon and nitrogen sources, pH, and incubation period. Production of both enzymes was influenced by the carbon source incorporated into the medium and was stimulated by acidic pH and NaNO3. The activity of both enzymes was very low in culture filtrates from cells grown on glucose and sucrose compared with that detected on chitin (for chitinases) and cell wall fragments (for β-1,3-glucanases). Protein electrophoresis revealed that, depending on the carbon source used, different isoforms of chitinases and β-1,3-glucanases were detected. S. elegans culture filtrates, possessing β-1,3-glucanase and chitinase activities, were capable of degrading R. solani mycelium.  相似文献

Twelve white-rot fungi were grown in solid-state culture on lemon grass (Cymbopogon citratus) and citronella (Cymbopogon winterianus) bagasse. The two lignocellulosic substrates had 11% permanganate lignin and a holocellulose fraction of 58%. After 5 to 6 weeks at 20°C, nine fungi produced a solid residue from lemon grass with a higher in vitro dry matter enzyme digestibility than the original bagasse; seven did the same for citronella. The best fungus for both substrates was Bondarzewia berkeleyi; it increased the in vitro dry matter enzyme digestibility to 22 and 24% for lemon grass and citronella, respectively. The increases were correlated with weight loss and lignin loss. All fungi decreased lignin contents: 36% of the original value for lemon grass and 28% for citronella. Practically all fungi showed a preference for hemicellulose over cellulose.  相似文献

Experiments were carried out to determine whether stepwise breakdown of native cellulose is carried out by B. cinereain vitro and in vivo. Protein fractions were obtained from ungerminated conidia, from culture filtrates 24, 48 and 96 h after inoculation with conidia, and from culture filtrates of 12 day-old cultures growing on cotton wool as the carbon source. In addition, petioles and fruits of tomato plants were inoculated and the protein fraction of the colonized tissues were tested. Using filter paper, carboxymethylcellulose and cellobiose as substrates, all fraction showed c1, glucanase and cellobiase activity respectively.  相似文献

1. Culture filtrates from Trichoderma viride have been fractionated by gel filtration on Sephadex G-75 followed by ion-exchange chromatography on DEAE- and SE-Sephadex. 2. The components essential for attack on cotton are a carboxymethylcellulase, a cellobiase and a third (C1) component which has no action on CM-cellulose, cellobiose or cotton. 3. These components, which together can completely convert cotton into water-soluble products, lose this ability when separated and regain it quantitatively when recombined in their original proportions.  相似文献

Activities and subunit levels of three C4 enzymes were determined for F1 hybrids between C4 and C3-C4Flaveria species. For phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase and pyruvate orthophosphate, dikinase, enzyme amounts in the hybrids were close to the mid-parent means. However, activity and subunit levels of NADP-malic enzyme were approximately one-half the mid-parent mean.  相似文献

The effects of chemical, physical, and enzymatic treatments of rice straw and sugarcane bagasse on the microbial digestibility of cellulose have been investigated. Treatment with 4% NaOH for 15 min at 100 C increased the digestibility of cellulose from 29.4 to 73%. Treatment with 5.2% NH3 could increase digestibility to 57.0% Treatments with sulfuric acid and crude cellulase preparation solubilized cellulose but did not increase the digestibility. Grinding or high-pressure cooking of the substrate had little effect on increasing the digestibility of cellulosic substrates by the Cellulomonas species.  相似文献

The interrelationships between reniform nematode (Rotylenchulus reniformis) and the cotton (Gossypium hirsutum) seedling blight fungus (Rhizoctonia solani) were studied using three isolates of R. solani, two populations of R. reniformis at multiple inoculum levels, and the cotton cultivars Dehapine 90 (DP 90) and Dehapine 41 (DP 41). Colonization of cotton hypocotyl tissue by R. solani resulted in increases (P ≤ 0.05) in nematode population densities in soil and in eggs recovered from the root systems in both 40- and 90-day-duration experiments. Increases in soil population densities resulted mainly from increases in juveniles. Enhanced reproduction of R. reniformis in the presence of R. solani was consistent across isolates (1, 2, and 3) of R. solani and populations (1 and 2) and inoculum levels (0.5, 2, 4, and 8 individuals/g of soil) of R. reniformis, regardless of cotton cultivar (DP 90 or DP 41). Severity of seedling blight was not influenced by the nematode. Rhizoctonia solani caused reductions (P ≤ 0.05) in cotton growth in 40- and 90-day periods. Rotylenchulus reniformis reduced cotton growth at 90 days. The relationship between nematode inoculum levels and plant growth reductions was linear. At 90 days, the combined effects of these pathogens were antagonistic to plant growth.  相似文献

A protein fraction capable of catalysing the formation of all four geometrical isomers of farnesyl pyrophosphate has been isolated from cotton roots. Using neryl pyrophosphate and isopentenyl pyrophosphate as substrates the product was found to be cis-cis farnesyl pyrophosphate and possibly trans-cis farnesyl pyrophosphate. Geranyl pyrophosphate and isopentenyl pyrophosphate as substrates yielded trans-trans and possible cis-trans farnesyl pyrophosphate. During purification of the active protein fraction, the ratio of utilization of geranyl pyrophosphate and neryl pyrophosphate did not remain constant, indicating that two enzymes may be involved, one specific for cis C10-substrate and the other for trans C10-substrate.  相似文献

Botryodiplodia theobromae and Aspergillus aculeatus were inoculated on carboxymethylcellulose (CMC) medium and filter papers. The hydrolysis of the CMC medium and degradation of the filter papers were observed, indicating the production of the Cl and Cx cellulases by the two rot pathogens. The Cl and Cx enzymes were also detected in filtrates of rotted orange fruits incited by the two rot pathogens.The cellulases could not induce rot development on their own. However, when they were added to pectinases in an enzyme inoculum, the incubation period for inducing rot development was shorter; thus establishing a secondary role for the cellulases in the rot development. This secondary role of the cellulases produced by the two fungi was found to be at peak at pH 7 and a temperature range of 25°–30 °C in the two fungi.  相似文献

Two endo-1,4-β-d-xylanases (1,4-β-d-xylan xylanohydrolase, EC 3.2.1.8) were purified from Trichoderma harzianum culture filtrates. From kinetic analyses, apparent Vmax and Km values of 580 U mg?1 protein and 0.16% d-xylan were obtained for the 20 000 dalton endo-1,4-β-d-xylanase, while values of 100 U mg?1 protein and 0.066% d-xylan were obtained for the 29 000 dalton endo-1,4-β-d-xylanase. Substrate levels >1% (w/v) d-xylan were found to be inhibitory to both enzymes. Both d-xylanases were highly active against d-xylans obtained from various sources. Of the polymeric sugars tested, carboxymethyl cellulose was the only substrate which was hydrolysed to any extent. Little or no activity was observed against cellulose. Analyses by h.p.l.c. demonstrated the absence of hydrolytic activity by both d-xylanases on d-xylobiose. d-Xylotriose was cleaved to a limited extent by the 29 000 dalton d-xylanase only, while d-xylotetraose was hydrolysed by both. In the presence of d-xylotetraose, the 20 000 dalton d-xylanase had an associated transxylosidase activity which was not observed with the 29 000 dalton enzyme. When the solubilization assay was used, neither of the d-xylanases was inhibited by high concentrations of d-xylose and xylobiose.  相似文献

Two polyphenol oxidases (enzymes A and B) from Bartlett pear (Pyrus communis) peelings were purified to electrophoretic homogeneity according to polyacrylamide gel by a combination of Sephadex gel filtration, diethylaminoethyl cellulose chromatography and hydroxyl apatite chromatography. While the two enzymes differ electrophoretically at pH 9.3, chromatographically on hydroxyl apatite, and in the effect of ionic strength on activity, they are similar with respect to chromatography on diethylaminoethyl cellulose, substrate specificity, pH activity relations, inhibition by p-coumaric and benzoic acids, and heat stability. The two enzymes are o-diphenol oxidases with no detectable monophenolase or laccase activities. Pyrocatechol, 4-methyl catechol, chlorogenic acid, and d-catechin are good substrates of the enzymes with Km values in the range of 2 to 20 mm. Dependences of activity on oxygen and chlorogenic acid concentrations indicate a sequential mechanism for binding of these substrates to enzyme B. Vmax and Km values for oxygen and chlorogenic acid were 103 μmoles O2 uptake per minute per milligram of enzyme, 0.11 mm and 7.2 mm, respectively, for enzyme B at pH 4.0. Both enzymes had maximum activity at pH 4.0 on chlorogenic acid. Km values for chlorogenic acid were independent of pH from 3 to 7; the Vmax values for both enzymes gave bell-shaped curves as a function of pH. p-Coumaric acid is a simple, linear noncompetitive inhibitor with respect to chlorogenic acid at pH 6.2 with Ki values of 0.38 and 0.50 mm for enzymes A and B, respectively. Benzoic acid is a linear competitive inhibitor with respect to chlorogenic acid at pH 4.0 with Ki values of 0.04 and 0.11 mm for enzymes A and B, respectively.  相似文献

Culture filtrates from three mutant strains of Trichoderma reesei grown on lactose and on cellulose were compared under use conditions on four cellulose substrates. Cellulose culture filtrates contained five to six times as much cellulase as lactose culture filtrates. Unconcentrated cellulose culture filtrates produced up to 10% sugar solutions from 15% cellulose in 24 h. Specific activity in enzyme assays and efficiency in saccharification tests were low for enzymes from all the mutants. Over a wide range the percent saccharification of a substrate in a given times was directly proportional to the logarithm of the ratio of initial concentrations of enzyme and substrate. As a result of this, dilute enzyme is more efficient than concentrated enzyme, but if high sugar concentrations are desired, very large quantities of enzyme are required. Since the slopes of these plots varied, the relative activity of cellulase on different substrates may be affected by enzyme concentration.  相似文献

Cutinases are esterases that release fatty acids from the apoplastic layer in plants. As they accept bulky and hydrophobic substrates, cutinases could be used in many applications, ranging from valorization of bark-rich side streams to plastic recycling. Advancement of these applications, however, requires deeper knowledge of cutinases’ biodiversity and structure–function relationships. Here, we mined over 3000 members from carbohydrate esterase family 5 for putative cutinases and condensed it to 151 genes from known or putative lignocellulose-targeting organisms. The 151 genes were subjected to a phylogenetic analysis, which showed that cutinases with available crystal structures were phylogenetically closely related. We then selected nine phylogenic diverse cutinases for recombinant production and characterized their kinetic activity against para-nitrophenol substrates esterified with consecutively longer alkyl chains (pNP-C2 to C16). Each investigated cutinase had a unique activity fingerprint against the tested pNP substrates. The five enzymes with the highest activity on pNP-C12 and C16, indicative of activity on bulky hydrophobic compounds, were selected for in-depth kinetic and structure–function analysis. All five enzymes showed a decrease in kcat values with increasing substrate chain length, whereas KM values and binding energies (calculated from in silico docking analysis) improved. Two cutinases from Fusarium solani and Cryptococcus sp. exhibited outstandingly low KM values, resulting in high catalytic efficiencies toward pNP-C16. Docking analysis suggested that different clades of the phylogenetic tree may harbor enzymes with different modes of substrate interaction, involving a solvent-exposed catalytic triad, a lipase-like lid, or a clamshell-like active site possibly formed by flexible loops.  相似文献

Arundinella hirta L. is a C4 plant having an unusual C4 leaf anatomy. Besides mesophyll and bundle sheath cells, A. hirta leaves have specialized parenchyma cells which look morphologically like bundle sheath cells but which lack vascular connections and are located between veins, running parallel to them. Activities of phosphoenolpyruvate and ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylases and phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase, NADP-and NAD-malic enzymes were determined for whole leaf extracts and isolated mesophyll protoplasts, specialized parenchyma cells, and bundle sheath cells. The data indicate that A. hirta is a NADP-malic enzyme type C4 species. In addition, specialized parenchyma cells and bundle sheath cells are enzymatically alike. Compartmentation of enzymes followed the C4 pattern with phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase being restricted to mesophyll cells while ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase and decarboxylating enzymes were restricted to bundle sheath and specialized parenchyma cells.  相似文献

The iron-containing violet acid phosphatases from beef spleen and pig allantoic fluid have been purified to homogeneity. Molecular weight determinations by zonal gel filtration, SDS-gel electrophoresis, and ultracentrifugation support values close to 40,000 for both enzymes, necessitating reappraisal of literature values. Similarly, the equivalent weight for iron is close to 20,000 for both enzymes, indicating the presence of two iron atoms per molecule of enzyme. The enzymes also have very similar ultraviolet and visible spectra, with λmax values close to 550 nm, and ?550 values(in terms of iron) of 2.04 × 103 and 2.00 × 103 for the beef spleen and pig allantoic fluid enzymes respectively.  相似文献

The ability ofMyricoccum albomyces to produce extracellular cellulase(s) has been studied in a stationary liquid medium. Different cellulosic carbon sources were used. The organism was able to produce cellulose 1,4-β-cellobiosidase (C1) and cellulase (Cx) activities. The optimum temperature for C1 and Cx activity was 45 °C. The optimum pH for C1 activity was pH 6 while that for Cx was pH 5.  相似文献
