The enzyme alpha-galactosidase offers potential to (i) eliminate possibly the flatus-inducing factor(s) in edible beans, (ii) eliminate raffinose during beet-sugar processing, and (iii) determine raffinose analytically. Accordingly, 20 genera of the order Actinomycetales Buchanan 1917 were tested for evidence of alpha-galactosidase activity. Test filtrates were prepared with a medium containing D-galactose and soybean meal. Enzyme activity was demonstrated through cellulose thin-layer chromatography. Of 123 strains tested, 28 produced extracellular alpha-galactosidase. Almost all were streptomycetes. Members of the genera Actinoplanes Couch 1950, Micromonospora varphiOrskov 1923, and Promicromonospora Krasil'nikov et al. 1961 also exhibited alpha-galactosidase activity. Additional tests led to the selection of five strains whose filtrates degraded melibiose, raffinose, and stachyose but not lactose and sucrose. Tests also were made with several soybean preparations. 相似文献

AIM: Statistical medium optimization for maximum production of a hyperthermostable lipase from Burkholderia cepacia and its validation in a bioreactor. METHODS AND RESULTS: Burkholderia cepacia was grown in shake flasks containing 1% glucose, 0.1% KH2PO4, 0.5% NH4Cl, 0.24% (NH4)2HPO4, 0.01% MgSO4.7H2O and 1% emulsified palm oil, at 45 degrees C and pH 7.0, agitated at 250 rev min(-1) with 6-h-old inoculum (2% v/v) for 20 h. A fourfold enhancement in lipase production (50 U ml(-1)) and an approximately three fold increase in specific activity (160 U mg(-1)) by B. cepacia was obtained in a 14 litre bioreactor within 15 h after statistical optimization following shake flask culture. The statistical model was obtained using face centred central composite design (FCCCD) with five variables: glucose, palm oil, incubation time, inoculum density and agitation. The model suggested no interactive effect of the five factors, although incubation period, inoculum and carbon concentration were the important variables. CONCLUSIONS: The maximum lipase production was 50 U ml(-1), with specific activity 160 U mg(-1) protein, in a 14 litre bioreactor after 15 h in a medium obtained after statistical optimization in shake flasks. Further, the model predicted reduction in time for lipase production with reduction in total carbon supply. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY: Statistical optimization allows quick optimization of a large number of variables. It also provides a deep insight into the regulatory role of various parameters involved in enzyme production. 相似文献

Twenty known penicillic acid (PA)-producing Aspergillus and Penicillium cultures were grown under various conditions in shaken flasks to determine the highest yielding strains and their requirements for maximum toxin production. Abilities of the cultures to utilize eight different carbon sources in Raulin-Thom medium for mycotoxin synthesis were determined at four different incubation temperatures: 15, 20, 25, and 28 degrees C. Of the 20 cultures, P. cyclopium NRRL 1888 was superior, yielding up to 4 mg of PG per ml, with mannitol as the carbon source and 25 degrees C as the incubation temperature. Fifteen of the cultures elaborated lesser amounts of PA, whereas four strains yielded none under the test conditions. Whey from the manufacture of cottage cheese by the cultured process was also a satisfactory medium for PA production. In whey medium, yields up to 3 mg/ml were obtained with P. cyclopium NRRL 1888. 相似文献

AIM: An investigation was carried out on the production of alpha-amylase by Bacillus thermooleovorans NP54, its partial purification and characterization. METHODS AND RESULTS: The thermophilic bacterium was grown in shake flasks and a laboratory fermenter containing 2% soluble starch, 0.3% tryptone, 0.3% yeast extract and 0.1% K2HPO4 at 70 degrees C and pH 7.0, agitated at 200 rev min(-1) with 6-h-old inoculum (2% v/v) for 12 h. When the enzyme was partially purified using acetone (80%[v/v] saturation), a 43.7% recovery of enzyme with 6.2-fold purification was recorded. The KM and Vmax (soluble starch) values were 0.83 mg ml(-1) and 250 micromol mg(-1) protein min(-1), respectively. The enzyme was optimally active at 100 degrees C and pH 8.0 with a half-life of 3 h at 100 degrees C. Both alpha-amylase activity and production were Ca2+ independent. CONCLUSIONS: Bacillus thermooleovorans NP54 produced calcium-independent and thermostable alpha-amylase. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY: The calcium-independent and thermostable alpha-amylase of B. thermooleovorans NP54 will be extremely useful in starch saccharification since the alpha-amylases used in the starch industry are calcium dependent. The use of this enzyme in starch hydrolysis eliminates the use of calcium in starch liquefaction and subsequent removal by ion exchange. 相似文献

Comparisons were made for alpha-galactosidase production using red gram plant waste (RGPW) with wheat bran (WB) and other locally available substrates using the fungus Aspergillus oryzae under solid-state fermentation (SSF). RGPW proved to be potential substrate for alpha-galactosidase production as it gave higher enzyme titers (3.4 U/g) compared to WB (2.7 U/g) and other substrates tested. Mixing WB with RGPW (1:1, w/w) resulted enhanced alpha-galactosidase yield. The volume of moistening agent in the ratio of 1:2 (w/v), pH 5.5 and 1 ml (1 x 10(6) spores) of inoculum volume and four days incubation were optimum for alpha-galactosidase production. Increase in substrate concentration (RGPW+WB) did not decrease enzyme yield in trays. 相似文献

Manganese peroxidase as an extracellular enzyme is produced by the white rot fungusPhanerochœte chrysosporium under nutrient nitrogen or carbon limitation. The effect of nitrogen concentration on the activity of manganese peroxidase
was studied using ammonium nitrate andl-asparagine as nitrogen sources. The highest activity of the enzyme was observed in cultures grown in a medium containing
75 mg/L ammonium nitrate and 0.15 g/Ll-asparagine. Manganese peroxidase was not detectable in cultures grown in the presence 0.5 g/L ammonium nitrate and 1 g/Ll-asparagine. 相似文献

Purification and characterization of nitrate reductase from nodule cytosol of soybean plants 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Nodulated soybean ( Glycine max [L.] Merr.) plants were grown in a nitrogen-free liquid culture medium prepared with distilled water. The cytosol fraction from root nodules showed a significant level of NADH-dependent nitrate reductase activity, even when the root did not show activity. This nitrate reductase was purified by column chromatography and native polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE). The purified protein showed a main band at 100 kDa on sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS)-PAGE. The K m value for nitrate was 0.16 m M , and the highest activity was obtained at around pH 7.5. These characteristics are very similar to the inducible type of nitrate reductase, previously purified from soybean leaves. The developmental change in activity of this enzyme corresponded to that in nitrogenase activity. 相似文献

α-Amylase (EC 3.2.1.1) was excreted by Calvatia gigantea in liquid growth media containing different sources of starch. Among the factors affecting enzyme production in shake flasks were the type and the concentration of starch and the nitrogen source supplied. Optimum cultural conditions for maximum enzyme production were: soluble starch concentration, 5%; inoculum size, 3.75 × 105 conidia per ml; 5-day cultivation time at 28 to 30°C. The observed maximum yield of 81.3 U of saccharifying enzyme activity per ml of growth medium was the highest ever reported in the literature for submerged cultures. Partially purified enzyme functioned optimally at pH 4.5 to 5.5 and 53 to 58°C. The activation energy of enzymic hydrolysis of starch in the range of 20 to 40°C was 8,125 cal/mol (ca. 3.41 × 104 J). The apparent Km value of the enzyme at 25°C was 7.68 × 10−4 g/ml. Some of the properties of the enzyme under investigation were similar to those of α-amylases excreted from molds producing large amounts of the enzyme. 相似文献

High activity xylanase from thermotolerantStreptomyces T7: Cultural conditions and enzyme properties
Sulabha S. Keskar 《Biotechnology letters》1992,14(6):481-486
Summary A thermotolerantStreptomyces T7 produced 70–72 U/ml of extracellular xylanase activity when grown at 50°C in submerged culture, in à medium containing 5% wheat bran as a carbon source. Among the various sugars tested, maltose showed the highest activity of 8 U/ml. Pure xylan was less effective as an inducer as compared to wheat bran. Ammonium sulphate at a concentration of 0.7% was found to be optimum for maximum yield of the enzyme. The optimum period and pH for maximum production were 72th and 7.0, respectively. The culture filtrate was devoid of amylase, cellulase and B-xylosidase activity. The xylanase was exceptionally stable and did not show any loss in activity after storage at 50°C at pH 5.0 for 6 days. 相似文献

AIMS: Alpha-galactosidase is applied in food and feed industries for hydrolysing raffinose series oligosaccharides (RO) that are the factors primarily responsible for flatulence upon ingestion of soybean-derived products. The objective of the current work was to develop an optimal culture medium for the production of alpha-galactosidase in solid-state fermentation (SSF) by a mutant strain Aspergillus foetidus. METHODS AND RESULTS: Response surface methodology (RSM) was applied to evaluate the effects of variables, namely the concentrations of wheat bran, soybean meal, KH(2)PO(4), MnSO(4).H(2)O and CuSO(4).5H(2)O on alpha-galactosidase production in the solid substrate. A fractional factorial design (FFD) was firstly used to isolate the main factors that affected the production of alpha-galactosidase and the central composite experimental design (CCD) was then adopted to derive a statistical model for optimizing the composition of the fermentation medium. The experimental results showed that the optimum fermentation medium for alpha-galactosidase production by Aspergillus foetidus ZU-G1 was composed of 8.2137 g wheat bran, 1.7843 g soybean meal, 0.001 g MnSO(4).H(2)O and 0.001 g CuSO(4).5H(2)O in 10 g dry matter fermentation medium. CONCLUSIONS: After incubating 96 h in the optimum fermentation medium, alpha-galactosidase activity was predicted to be 2210.76 U g(-1) dry matter in 250 ml shake flask. In the present study, alpha-galactosidase activity reached 2207.19 U g(-1) dry matter. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY: Optimization of the solid substrate was a very important measure to increase enzyme activity and realize industrial production of alpha-galactosidase. The process of alpha-galactosidase production in laboratory scale may have the potential to scale-up. 相似文献

The endocytosis of alpha-galactosidase A was studied in cultured fibroblasts from patients with Fabry disease. Alpha-galactosidase A was purified from human placenta by chromatography on concanavalin A-Sepharose, DEAE-cellulose, and N-epsilon-aminocaproyl-alpha-D-galactosylamine-Sepharose. Separation of the high-uptake form of the enzyme from the low-uptake form was accomplished by chromatography on ECTEOLA-cellulose. With the high-uptake form of the enzyme, the uptake was linear at low concentrations of enzyme and had a Kuptake of 0.01 U/ml of medium that corresponds to a Km of 5.0 x 10(-9) M. At high concentrations of enzyme, it became saturated. The high-uptake form could be converted to the low-uptake form by treatment with acid phosphatase. Mannose-6-P strongly inhibited the active uptake of the enzyme. Once taken up into the lysosomes of Fabry disease fibroblasts, alpha-galactosidase A activity was rapidly lost in the first 2 days of incubation at 37 degrees C, but was fairly stable for the next 6 days. The half-life of internalized alpha-galactosidase A activity was calculated to be 4 days. Crosslinking of the enzyme with hexamethylene diisocyanate did not increase the intracellular stability of alpha-galactosidase A activity. 相似文献

A new strain of the yeast Metschnikowia koreensis was grown in shake flasks and a stirred bioreactor for the production of carbonyl reductase. The optimal conditions in the bioreactor for maximizing the biomass specific activity of the enzyme were found to be: a medium composed of glucose (20 g/L), peptone (5 g/L), yeast extract (5 g/L) and zinc sulfate (0.3g/L); the pH controlled at 7; the temperature controlled at 25 °C; an agitation speed of 500 rpm; and an aeration rate of 0.25 vvm. In the bioreactor, a biomass specific enzyme activity of 115.6 U/gDCW was obtained and the maximum biomass concentration was 15.3 gDCW/L. The biomass specific enzyme activity obtained in the optimized bioreactor culture was 11-fold higher than the best result achieved in shake flasks. The bioreactor culture afforded a 2.7-fold higher biomass concentration than could be attained in shake flasks. 相似文献

AIMS: The work is intended to achieve optimum culture conditions of alpha-galactosidase production by a mutant strain Penicillium sp. in solid-state fermentation (SSF). METHODS AND RESULTS: Certain fermentation parameters involving incubation temperature, moisture content, initial pH value, inoculum and load size of medium, and incubation time were investigated separately. The optimal temperature and moisture level for alpha-galactosidase biosynthesis was found to be 30 degrees C and 50%, respectively. The range of pH 5.5-6.5 was favourable. About 40-50 g of medium in 250-ml flask and inoculum over 1.0 x 10(6) spores were suitable for enzyme production. Seventy-five hours of incubation was enough for maximum alpha-galactosidase production. Substrate as wheat bran supplemented with soyabean meal and beet pulp markedly improved the enzyme yield in trays. CONCLUSIONS: Under optimum culture conditions, the alpha-galactosidase activity from Penicillium sp. MAFIC-6 indicated 185.2 U g(-1) in tray of SSF. SIGNIFICANT AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY: The process on alpha-galactosidase production in laboratory scale may have a potentiality of scaling-up. 相似文献

Streptomyces griseoloalbus was immobilized in calcium alginate gel and the optimal immobilization parameters (concentrations of sodium alginate and calcium chloride, initial biomass and curing time) for the enhanced production of alpha-galactosidase were determined. The immobilization was most effective with 3% sodium alginate and 0.1M calcium chloride. The optimal initial biomass for immobilization was approximately 2.2g (wet wt.). The alginate-entrapped cells were advantageous because there was a twofold increase in the enzyme yield (55 U/ml) compared to the highest yield obtained with free cells (23.6 U/ml). Moreover, with immobilized cells the maximum yield was reached after 72 h of incubation in batch fermentation under optimal conditions, whereas in the case of free cells the maximum enzyme yield was obtained only after 96 h of incubation. The alginate beads had good stability and also retained 75% ability of enzyme production even after eight cycles of repeated batch fermentation. It is significant that this is the first report on whole-cell immobilization for alpha-galactosidase production. 相似文献

The microbial degradation of aromatic hydrocarbons from effluents of a petroleum refinery was investigated, with emphasis
on the breakdown of naphthalene to salicylic acid. The microorganisms were grown in a synthetic medium with naphthalene as
the sole carbon source. The effects of pH, temperature, aeration and naphthalene concentration were studied. The optimum conditions
for degradation were found to be: pH 6.0, 28°C, 25 ml medium with 1% naphthalene in 500 ml flasks. Salicylic acid was estimated
by colorimetric and chromatographic methods. Maximum of growth was found on the 5th day of cultivation.Pseudomonas denitrificans produced 9.0 μg salicylic acid per ml medium,Achromobacter sp. produced 7.1 μg/ml. 相似文献

α-Galactosidase production by a newly isolated actinomycete Streptomyces griseoloalbus under submerged fermentation was investigated. The influence of initial pH of medium, incubation temperature, inoculum age
and inoculum size on α-galactosidase formation was studied. Various carbon sources were supplemented in the medium to study
their effect on enzyme production. The influence of the concentration of locust bean gum on enzyme production also was optimized.
Optimization of process parameters resulted in a highest α-galactosidase activity of 20.4 U/ml. The highest α-galactosidase
activity was obtained when the fermentation medium with initial pH 6.0 and containing 1% locust bean gum as growth substrate
was inoculated with 10% (v/v) of 72 h grown inoculum and incubated at 30°C. The hydrolysis of flatulence-causing oligosaccharides
in soymilk by the enzyme was also investigated. Thin layer chromatographic analysis of enzyme-treated soymilk samples showed
the complete hydrolysis of soy oligosaccharides liberating galactose, the final product. 相似文献

Entomophthora virulenta has been grown using inexpensive, commercial grade nutrient sources in order to produce a resting spore formulation available to agriculture. Solid media and liquid media in shake flasks and fermentors were examined. The best carbon sources for sporulation were dextrose and corn syrup, while the best nitrogen sources were yeast extract, soybean, and cottonseed flours. The optimal nutrient concentration (12%) produced 3 × 106spores/ml with a 70% germination rate within five days. 相似文献
