A somatic embryogenesis protocol for plant regeneration of northern red oak (Quercus rubra) was established from immature cotyledon explants. Embryogenic callus cultures were induced on Murashige and Skoog medium
(MS) containing 3% sucrose, 0.24% Phytagel™, and various concentrations of 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-d) after 4 weeks of culture in darkness. A higher response (66%) of embryogenic callus was induced on 0.45 μM 2,4-d. Higher numbers of globular- (31), heart- (17), torpedo- (12), and cotyledon-stage (8) embryos per explant were obtained
by culturing embryogenic callus on MS with 3% sucrose, 0.24% Phytagel™, and devoid of growth regulators after 8 weeks culture
in darkness. Continuous sub-culturing of embryogenic callus on medium containing 2,4-d yielded only compact callus. Desiccation of embryos for 3 days in darkness at 25 ± 2°C followed by cold storage at 4°C in
darkness for 8 weeks favored embryo germination and development of plantlets. Cotyledon-stage embryos subjected to desiccation
and chilling treatment cultured on MS with 3% sucrose, 0.24 Phytagel™, 0.44 μM 6-benzylaminopurine (BA), and 0.29 μM gibberellic
acid germinated at a higher frequency (61%) than with 0.44 μM BA alone and control cultures. Germinated plantlets developed
a shoot and root, were acclimatized successfully, and maintained in a growth room for plantlet development. 相似文献

l-Ribose is a rare and expensive sugar that can be used as a precursor for the production of l-nucleoside analogues, which are used as antiviral drugs. In this work, we describe a novel way of producing l-ribose from the readily available raw material l-arabinose. This was achieved by introducing l-ribose isomerase activity into l-ribulokinase-deficient Escherichia coli UP1110 and Lactobacillus plantarum BPT197 strains. The process for l-ribose production by resting cells was investigated. The initial l-ribose production rates at 39°C and pH 8 were 0.46 ± 0.01 g g−1 h−1 (1.84 ± 0.03 g l−1 h−1) and 0.27 ± 0.01 g g−1 h−1 (1.91 ± 0.1 g l−1 h−1) for E. coli and for L. plantarum, respectively. Conversions were around 20% at their highest in the experiments. Also partially purified protein precipitates
having both l-arabinose isomerase and l-ribose isomerase activity were successfully used for converting l-arabinose to l-ribose. 相似文献

A newly isolated Zygosaccharomyces rouxii NRRL 27,624 produced d-arabitol as the main metabolic product from glucose. In addition, it also produced ethanol and glycerol. The optimal conditions
were temperature 30°C, pH 5.0, 350 rpm, and 5% inoculum. The yeast produced 83.4 ± 1.1 g d-arabitol from 175 ± 1.1 g glucose per liter at pH 5.0, 30°C, and 350 rpm in 240 h with a yield of 0.48 g/g glucose. It also
produced d-arabitol from fructose, galactose, and mannose. The yeast produced d-arabitol and xylitol from xylose and also from a mixture of xylose and xylulose. Resting yeast cells produced 63.6 ± 1.9 g
d-arabitol from 175 ± 1.8 g glucose per liter in 210 h at pH 5.0, 30°C and 350 rpm with a yield of 0.36 g/g glucose. The yeast
has potential to be used for production of xylitol from glucose via d-arabitol route.

l-arabinose isomerase (EC5.3.1.4. AI) mediates the isomerization of d-galactose into d-tagatose as well as the conversion of l-arabinose into l-ribulose. The AI from Lactobacillus plantarum SK-2 was purified to an apparent homogeneity giving a single band on SDS–PAGE with a molecular mass of 59.6 kDa. Optimum
activity was observed at 50°C and pH 7.0. The enzyme was stable at 50°C for 2 h and held between pH 4.5 and 8.5 for 1 h. AI
activity was stimulated by Mn2+, Fe3+, Fe2+, Ca2+ and inhibited by Cu2+, Ag+, Hg2+, Pb2+. d-galactose and l-arabinose as substrates were isomerized with high activity. l-arabitol was the strongest competitive inhibitor of AI. The apparent Michaelis–Menten constant (K
m), for galactose, was 119 mM. The first ten N-terminal amino acids of the enzyme were determined as MLSVPDYEFW, which is identical to L. plantarum (Q88S84). Using the purified AI, 390 mg tagatose could be converted from 1,000 mg galactose in 96 h, and this production
corresponds to a 39% equilibrium. 相似文献

An intracellular S-adenosylmethionine synthetase (SAM-s) was purified from the fermentation broth of Pichia pastoris GS115 by a sequence chromatography column. It was purified to apparent homogeneity by (NH4)2SO4 fractionation (30–60%), anion exchange, hydrophobic interaction, anion exchange and gel filtration chromatography. HPLC showed
the purity of purified SAM-s was 91.2%. The enzyme was purified up to 49.5-fold with a final yield of 20.3%. The molecular
weight of the homogeneous enzyme was 43.6 KDa, as determined by electro-spray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS). Its isoelectric
point was approximately 4.7, indicating an acidic character. The optimum pH and temperature for the enzyme reaction were 8.5
and 35 °C, respectively. The enzyme was stable at pH 7.0–9.0 and was easy to inactivate in acid solution (pH ≤ 5.0). The temperature
stability was up to 45 °C. Metal ions, such as, Mn2+ and K+ at the concentration of 5 mM had a slight activation effect on the enzyme activity and the Mg2+ activated the enzyme significantly. The enzyme activity was strongly inhibited by heavy metal ions (Cu2+ and Ag2+) and EDTA. The purified enzyme from the transformed Pichia pastoris synthesized S-adenosylmethionine (SAM) from ATP and l-methionine in vitro with a K
m of 120 and 330 μM and V
max of 8.1 and 23.2 μmol/mg/min for l-methionine and ATP, respectively. 相似文献

The rpiB gene, encoding ribose-5-phosphate isomerase (RpiB) from Clostridium thermocellum, was cloned and expressed in Escherichia coli. RpiB converted d-psicose into d-allose but it did not convert d-xylose, l-rhamnose, d-altrose or d-galactose. The production of d-allose by RpiB was maximal at pH 7.5 and 65°C for 30 min. The half-lives of the enzyme at 50°C and 65°C were 96 h and 4.7 h,
respectively. Under stable conditions of pH 7.5 and 50°C, 165 g d-allose l−1
was produced without by-products from 500 g d-psicose l−1 after 6 h. 相似文献

A non-characterized gene, previously proposed as the d-tagatose-3-epimerase gene from Rhodobacter sphaeroides, was cloned and expressed in Escherichia coli. Its molecular mass was estimated to be 64 kDa with two identical subunits. The enzyme specificity was highest with d-fructose and decreased for other substrates in the order: d-tagatose, d-psicose, d-ribulose, d-xylulose and d-sorbose. Its activity was maximal at pH 9 and 40°C while being enhanced by Mn2+. At pH 9 and 40°C, 118 g d-psicose l−1 was produced from 700 g d-fructose l−1 after 3 h.

Protoplasts isolated from wild cotton Gossypium davidsonii were cultured in KM8P medium supplemented with different phytohormones. The most effective combination was 0.45 μM 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid,
2.68 μM α-naphthaleneacetic acid and 0.93 μM kinetin and the division percentage at the 8th day was 30.78 ± 3.04 %. The density of protoplasts at 2–10 × 105 cm−3 was suitable for protoplast division and calli formation, with a division percentage of 32.21 ± 3.64 % and a plating efficiency
of 9.12 ± 2.61 % at the 40th day. The optimal osmotic potential was achieved using 0.5 M glucose or 0.1 M glucose plus 0.5 M mannitol. Protoplasts were
cultured in three ways, a double-layer culture system, with liquid over solid medium was proved to be the best way. Embryo
induction was further increased by addition of 0.14 μM gibberellic acid. 相似文献

An N-acetyl-d-lactosamine (LacNAc) specific lectin from tubers of Alocasia cucullata was purified by affinity chromatography on asialofetuin-linked amino activated silica. The pure lectin showed a single band
in SDS-PAGE at pH 8.8 and was a homotetramer with a subunit molecular mass of 13.5 kDa and native molecular mass of 53 kDa.
It was heat stable up to 55 °C for 15 min and showed optimum hemagglutination activity from pH 2 to 11. The lectin was affected
by denaturing agents such as urea (2 m), thiourea (2 m) and guanidine–HCl (0.5 m) and did not require Ca2+ and Mn2+ for its activity. It was a potent mitogen at 10 μg/ml towards human peripheral blood mononuclear cells with 50% growth inhibitory
potential towards SiHa (human cervix ) cancer cell line at 100 μg/ml. 相似文献

The activity of ribose-5-phosphate isomerases (RpiB) from Clostridium difficile for d-ribose isomerization was optimal at pH 7.5 and 40°C, while that from Thermotoga maritima for l-talose isomerization was optimal at pH 8.0 and 70°C. C. difficile RpiB exhibited activity only with aldose substrates possessing hydroxyl groups oriented in the right-handed configuration
(Fischer projections) at the C2 and C3 positions, such as d-ribose, d-allose, l-talose, l-lyxose, d-gulose, and l-mannose. In contrast, T. maritima RpiB displayed activity only with aldose substrates possessing hydroxyl groups configured the same direction at the C2, C3,
and C4 positions, such as the d- and l-forms of ribose, talose, and allose. 相似文献

Cyanophycin synthesis is catalyzed by cyanophycin synthetase (CphA). It was believed that CphA requires l-aspartic acid (Asp), l-arginine (Arg), ATP, Mg2+, and a primer (low-molecular mass cyanophycin) for cyanophycin synthesis and catalyzes the elongation of a low-molecular
mass cyanophycin. Despite extensive studies of cyanophycin, the mechanism of primer supply is still unclear, and already-known
CphAs were primer-dependent enzymes. In the present study, we found that recombinant CphA from Thermosynechococcus elongatus BP-1 (Tlr2170 protein) catalyzed in vitro cyanophycin synthesis in the absence of a primer. The Tlr2170 protein showed strict
substrate specificity toward Asp and Arg. The optimum pH was 9.0, and Mg2+ or Mn2+ was essential for cyanophycin synthesis. KCl enhanced the cyanophycin synthesis activity of the Tlr2170 protein; in contrast,
dithiothreitol did not. The Tlr2170 protein appeared to be a 400 ± 9 kDa homo-tetramer. The Tlr2170 protein showed thermal
stability and retained its 80% activity after a 60-min incubation at 50°C. In addition, we examined cyanophycin synthesis
at 30°C, 40°C, 50°C, and 60°C. SDS-PAGE analysis showed that the molecular mass of cyanophycin increased with increased reaction
temperature. 相似文献

Two experiments were performed to determine how application of the cytokinin benzyladenine (BA) influenced flowering in Doritaenopsis and Phalaenopsis orchid clones. In the first experiment, two vegetative orchid clones growing in 15-cm pots were transferred from a 28°C greenhouse
that inhibited flowering to a 23°C greenhouse for flower induction (day 0). A foliar spray (0.2 L m−2) containing BA at 100, 200, or 400 mg L−1 or 25, 50, or 100 mg L−1 each of BA and gibberellins A4 + A7 (BA+GA) was applied on days 0, 7, and 14. Plants treated with BA alone at 200 or 400 mg L−1 had a visible inflorescence 3–9 days earlier and had a mean of 0.7–3.5 more inflorescences and 3–8 more flowers per plant
than nontreated plants. The application of BA+GA had no effect on inflorescence number and total flower number at the rates
tested. In the second experiment, three orchid clones received a single foliar spray of BA at 200 mg L−1 at six time points relative to time of transfer from 29°C to 23°C (−1, 0, +1, +2, +4, or +6 weeks). A separate group of plants
received a BA application at week 0 but was maintained at 29°C. Inflorescence number was greatest in all three orchid clones
when plants were treated with BA 1 week after the temperature transfer. Plants that were sprayed with BA and maintained at
29°C did not initiate inflorescences. The promotion of flowering by the application of BA suggests that cytokinins at least
partially regulate inflorescence initiation of Doritaenopsis and Phalaenopsis, but its promotion is conditional and BA application cannot completely substitute for an inductive low temperature. 相似文献

Pseudomonas stutzeri SDM was newly isolated from soil, and two stereospecific NAD-independent lactate dehydrogenase (iLDH) activities were detected
in membrane of the cells cultured in a medium containing dl-lactate as the sole carbon source. Neither enzyme activities was constitutive, but both of them might be induced by either
enantiomer of lactate. P. stutzeri SDM preferred to utilize lactate to growth, when both l-lactate and glucose were available, and the consumption of glucose was observed only after lactate had been exhausted. The
Michaelis–Menten constant for l-lactate was higher than that for d-lactate. The l-iLDH activity was more stable at 55°C, while the d-iLDH activity was lost. Both enzymes exhibited different solubilization with different detergents and different oxidation
rates with different electron acceptors. Combining activity staining and previous proteomic analysis, the results suggest
that there are two separate enzymes in P. stutzeri SDM, which play an important role in converting lactate to pyruvate.

The yeast Arxula
adeninivorans provides an attractive expression platform and can be exploited as gene source for biotechnologically interesting proteins.
In the following study, a striking example for the combination of both aspects is presented. The transaldolase-encoding A. adeninivorans ATAL gene, including its promoter and terminator elements, was isolated and characterized. The gene includes a coding sequence
of 963 bp encoding a putative 321 amino acid protein of 35.0 kDa. The enzyme characteristics analyzed from isolates of native
strains and recombinant strains overexpressing the ATAL gene revealed a molecular mass of ca. 140 kDa corresponding to a tetrameric structure, a pH optimum of ca. 5.5, and a temperature
optimum of 20°C. The preferred substrates for the enzyme include d-erythrose-4-phosphate and d-fructose-6-phosphate, whereas d-glyceraldehyde is not converted. The ATAL expression level under salt-free conditions was observed to increase in media supplemented with 5% NaCl rendering the ATAL promoter attractive for moderate heterologous gene expression under high-salt conditions. Its suitability was assessed for
the expression of a human serum albumin (HSA) reporter gene. 相似文献

Erythrocytes l-arginine uptake is conveyed by y+ and y+L membrane transport systems. Pre-incubation with N-ethylmaleimide for 10 min at
37°C inhibits the y+ system. The aim of this study was to determine the ideal pre-incubation temperature in evaluating y+
and y+L systems. Cells were pre-incubated with or without N-ethylmaleimide for 10 min at 4°C and 37°C. l-Arginine uptake was quantified by radioisotope and standard erythrocytes membrane flux methodology. Results demonstrate that
erythrocytes l-arginine content is depleted by pre-incubation at 37°C for 10 min, thus changing the V
max measurement. The inhibitory effect of N-ethylmaleimide pre-incubation was temperature independent and already complete after
1 min of incubation. No significant difference in kinetic parameters was detected between cells pre-incubated at 37°C or 4°C,
under zero-trans conditions. In conclusion, we suggest that measurement of erythrocytes l-arginine uptake by y+ and y+L systems could be carried out without N-ethylmaleimide pre-incubation at 37°C. 相似文献

A recombinant d-lyxose isomerase from Providencia stuartii was immobilized on Duolite A568 beads which gave the highest conversion of d-fructose to d-mannose among the various immobilization beads evaluated. Maximum activities of both the free and immobilized enzymes for
fructose isomerization were at pH 7.5 and 45°C in the presence of 1 mM Mn2+. Enzyme half-lives were 14 and 30 h at 35°C and 3.4 and 5.1 h at 45°C, respectively. The immobilized enzyme in 300 g fructose/l
(replaced hourly), produced 75 g mannose/l at 35°C = 25% (w/w) yield with a productivity of 75 g mannose l−1 h−1 after 23 cycles. 相似文献

d-Tagatose is a highly functional rare ketohexose and many attempts have been made to convert d-galactose into the valuable d-tagatose using l-arabinose isomerase (l-AI). In this study, a thermophilic strain possessing l-AI gene was isolated from hot spring sludge and identified as Anoxybacillus flavithermus based on its physio-biochemical characterization and phylogenetic analysis of its 16s rRNA gene. Furthermore, the gene encoding
l-AI from A. flavithermus (AFAI) was cloned and expressed at a high level in E. coli BL21(DE3). l-AI had a molecular weight of 55,876 Da, an optimum pH of 10.5 and temperature of 95°C. The results showed that the conversion
equilibrium shifted to more d-tagatose from d-galactose by raising the reaction temperatures and adding borate. A 60% conversion of d-galactose to d-tagatose was observed at an isomerization temperature of 95°C with borate. The catalytic efficiency (k
cat
/K
m) for d-galactose with borate was 9.47 mM−1 min−1, twice as much as that without borate. Our results indicate that AFAI is a novel hyperthermophilic and alkaliphilic isomerase
with a higher catalytic efficiency for d-galactose, suggesting its great potential for producing d-tagatose. 相似文献

Double d-amino acid oxidases (dRtDAO and dTvDAO) were previously genetically constructed by linking the C-terminus of one subunit
of their corresponding native DAOs from Rhodosporidium toruloides and Trigonopsis variabilis (RtDAO and TvDAO) to the N-terminus of the other identical subunit. We have now immobilized these double DAOs and their native
counterparts onto streptavidin-coated magnetic beads through the interaction between biotin and streptavidin. The catalytic
efficiencies (kcat/KM) of immobilized DAOs toward d-alanine and cepharosporin C remained similar to those of their soluble forms, except the catalytic efficiency of immobilized
TvDAO toward d-alanine was decreased by 56%. After immobilization, the Tm value for RtDAO was shifted 15°C higher to 60°C, while those for dRtDAO, TvDAO and dTvDAO were increased by 5–8°C to 56,
60 and 60°C, respectively. In the presence of 10 mM H2O2, immobilized RtDAO, dRtDAO, TvDAO and dTvDAO exhibited half-lives of about 8, 10, 3 and 5 h, respectively, giving 16-, 10-,
6- and 7-fold greater stability than their soluble forms, respectively. Therefore, immobilization through biotin–streptavidin
affinity binding enhances the thermal and oxidative stability of native and double DAOs studied, especially RtDAO. The additive
stabilizing effect of subunit fusion and immobilization was more pronounced in the case of RtDAO than TvDAO. 相似文献

We isolated and characterized a d-lactic acid-producing lactic acid bacterium (d-LAB), identified as Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. lactis QU 41. When compared to Lactobacillus coryniformis subsp. torquens JCM 1166 T and L. delbrueckii subsp. lactis JCM 1248 T, which are also known as d-LAB, the QU 41 strain exhibited a high thermotolerance and produced d-lactic acid at temperatures of 50 °C and higher. In order to optimize the culture conditions of the QU 41 strain, we examined
the effects of pH control, temperature, neutralizing reagent, and initial glucose concentration on d-lactic acid production in batch cultures. It was found that the optimal production of 20.1 g/l d-lactic acid was acquired with high optical purity (>99.9% of d-lactic acid) in a pH 6.0-controlled batch culture, by adding ammonium hydroxide as a neutralizing reagent, at 43 °C in MRS
medium containing 20 g/l glucose. As a result of product inhibition and low cell density, continuous cultures were investigated
using a microfiltration membrane module to recycle flow-through cells in order to improve d-lactic acid productivity. At a dilution rate of 0.87 h−1, the high cell density continuous culture exhibited the highest d-lactic acid productivity of 18.0 g/l/h with a high yield (ca. 1.0 g/g consumed glucose) and a low residual glucose (<0.1 g/l)
in comparison with systems published to date. 相似文献
