Summary The growth yields and the rates of production of -amylase and amyloglucosidase have been compared for the wild strain ofSchwanniomyces castellii and an alcohol dehydrogenase mutant. The loss of fermentative ability in the mutant strain leads to limited but significant increases in biomass yields, and in amylase production. 相似文献

An extracellular 1,4-α-d-glucan 6-α-d-glucosyltransferase [d-glucosyltransferase, 1,4-α-d-glucan:1,4-α-d-glucan(d-gluco 6-α-d-glucosyltransferase, EC 2.4.1.24] from Aspergillus niger R-27 has been purified and the kinetics of its proteolytic inactivation with subtilisin studied. The purified enzyme was shown to be homogeneous using disc polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. It contained 16.0% mannose, 0.19% glucose and 2.95% 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-d-glucose. The characteristic feature of the proteolytic degradation of glucosyltransferase is rapid hydrolysis of ~12 peptide bonds per mol and the formation of an active intermediate product which is more resistant to further proteolysis, but is easily heat-inactivated. The isolation and some properties of glucosyltransferase are also described. 相似文献

Summary Catalytic activities of -chymotrypsin and subtilisin Carlsberg for transesterification of N-acetyl-L-tyrosine methyl ester in ethanol markedly increased by decreasing the amount of the enzymes in the reaction mixtures. The results were kinetically attributed to changes in KM and kcat due to formation of smaller enzyme aggregates. 相似文献

The action patterns of glucoamylase (amyloglucosidase) and glucosyltransferase (transglucosylase) on D-[1-14C]glucose, [1-14C]maltose, and [1-14C]malto-oligosaccharides (labeled at position 1 of the D-glucose group at the reducing end) have been investigated by paper-chromatographic and oligosaccharide-mapping techniques. Under the conditions of the experiments, the extent of conversion of D-glucose and of maltose into new oligosaccharides was 2.2 and 1.9% with glucoamylase, and 5.7 and 33% with glucosyltransferase. The major oligosaccharides produced by both enzymes were isomaltose (6-O-alpha-D-glucopyranosyl-alpha-D-glucose), panose (O-alpha-D-glucopyranosyl (1 leads to 6)-O-alpha-D-glucopyranosyl-(1 leads to 4)-alpha-D-glucose), and nigerose (3-O-alpha-D-glucopyranosyl-alpha-D-glucose). The glucosyltransferase also synthesized oligosaccharides from malto-oligosaccharides of higher molecular weight to yield compounds having alpha-(1 leads to 6)-linked D-glucosyl groups at the non-reducing ends. Glucoamylase exhibited little, if any, such activity on malto-oligosaccharides. 相似文献

Summary Cassava and sago starch were evaluated for their feasibilities as substrates for ethanol production using Zymomonas mobilis ZM4 strain. Before fermentation, the starch materials were pretreated employing two commercial enzymes, Termamyl (thermostable -amylase) and AMG (amyloglucosidase). Using 2 l/g of Termamyl and 4 l/g of AMG, effective conversion of both cassava and sago starch into glucose was found with substrate concentration up to 30%(w/v) dry substances. Fermentation study performed using these starch hydrolysates as substrates resulted in ethanol yield at an average of 0.48g/g by Z. Mobilis ZM4. 相似文献

Suspension cultures from several cell lines of Digitalis lanata, as well as cultures from 6 other plant species were checked for their ability to form purpurea-glycoside A from digitoxin. An in-vitro assay for the UDP-glucose:digitoxin 16-O-glucosyltransferase (DGT, EC 2.4.1.-) has been established based on an HPLC method. The enzyme is located in the soluble fraction. Its pH optimum is at 7.4. No enzyme activity was found in either purified vacuole preparations or lysed vacuoles. Ascorbate (10 mM) increased the transferase activity about 4-fold. Of the sugar nucleotides tested, only UDP-glucose served as a glucosyl donor. Digitoxin, digoxin, -acetyldigitoxin, and -acetyldigoxin are substrates for the glucosyltransferase. The role of the DGT during the biotransformation of cardenolides in Digitalis lanata cell suspension cultures is discussed.Abbreviation DGT

Amyloglucosidase was immobilized on a copolymer of methyl methacrylate and 2-dimethylaminoethyl methacrylate. The resulting immobilized amyloglucosidase has 19% of the soluble enzyme specific activity. The pH optimum of immobilized amyloglucosidase is shifted towards acidity by 1.9 units. The temperature optimum of immobilized enzyme is shifted upward by 5°C. The immobilized amyloglucosidase has the maximum stability at pH 4.6, whereas the soluble enzyme has maximum stability at pH 5.5. While soluble amyloglucosidase has a maximum thermal stability at 50°C, the stability of the immobilized amyloglucosidase steadily decreases with the increase in temperature. 相似文献

Proprotein convertase (PC) subtilisin kexin type 9 (PCSK9) inhibits the clearance of low density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol from plasma by directly interacting with the LDL receptor (LDLR). As the interaction promotes elevated plasma LDL cholesterol levels and a predisposition to cardiovascular disease (CVD), it has attracted much interest as a therapeutic target. While anti-PCSK9 monoclonal antibodies have been successful in the treatment of hypercholesteremia by decreasing CVD risk, their high cost and a requirement for injection have prohibited widespread use. The advent of an orally bioavailable small molecule inhibitor of the PCSK9-LDLR interaction is an attractive alternative, however efforts have been tempered as the binding interface is unfavourable for binding by small organic molecules. Despite its challenging nature, we report herein the discovery of compound 3f as a small molecule inhibitor of PCSK9. The kinase inhibitor nilotinib emerged from a computational screen that was applied to identify compounds that may bind to a cryptic groove within PCSK9 and proximal to the LDLR-binding interface. A subsequent in vitro PCSK9-LDLR binding assay established that nilotinib was a bona fide but modest inhibitor of the interaction (IC50 = 9.8 µM). Through multiple rounds of medicinal chemistry, 3f emerged as a lead-like molecule by demonstrating disruption of the PCSK9-LDLR interaction at nanomolar levels in vitro (IC50 = 537 nM) with no inhibitory activity (IC50 > 10 µM) against a small panel of kinases. Compound 3f restored LDL uptake by liver cells at sub-micromolar levels and demonstrated excellent bioavailability when delivered subcutaneously in mice. Most significantly, compound 3f lowered total cholesterol levels in the plasma of wild-type mice, thereby providing proof-of-concept that the notion of a small molecule inhibitor against PCSK9 is therapeutically viable. 相似文献

Termitomyces clypeatus secreted a 24-kDa xylanase constitutively in xylan medium, but required a gluconeogenic amino acid or Krebs cycle acid for the secretion of a 56-kDa amyloglucosidase in dextrin medium. Aspartate, glutamate, succinate and fumarate all increased secretion of amyloglucosidase from 50% to >90% and enzyme production by 10-fold with little effect on xylanase production. Glutamate or succinate stimulated in vitro release of intracellular amyloglucosidase from washed mycelia in the presence of cycloheximide. Amyloglucosidase accumulated in the absence of glutamate was a high-molecular-mass protein that did not migrate in PAGE. Cellular regulation by the fungus of the secretion of amyloglucosidase is indicated. 相似文献

In prior studies, we employed a crude amyloglucosidase preparation, in conjunction with glucose oxidase reagent, to determine total carbohydrate in liver and muscle homogenates by a two-step procedure. Glycogen content was determined by subtracting tissue glucose (determined separately). By use of a purified amyloglucosidase, we have now verified the accuracy of two-step assay of rat liver homogenate with crude amyloglucosidase. The reliability of glucose oxidase detection of glucose in amyloglucosidase hydrolysates was established by comparing results with those obtained with hexokinase/glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase reagent. The availability of purified amyloglucosidase made it feasible to assay total carbohydrate content of homogenate in a single step, by incubating aliquots in the presence of both amyloglucosidase and glucose oxidase reagents. Results obtained with this one-step assay agreed with those of two-step analysis. To our knowledge, this is the first report of direct enzymic assay of total carbohydrate in rat liver homogenate, in a single step. 相似文献

Summary Amyloglucosidase and pullulanase were co-immobilized using a hydrophilic polyurethane foam (Hypol® 2002). The combined amyloglucosidase and pullulanase activity of the immobilized enzyme was 32.2% ± 1.7% relative to the non-immobilized enzyme. The co-immobilized enzymes were capable of using a variety of glycogen and starch substrates. Co-immobilization of amyloglucosidase and pullulanase increased the glucose yield 1.6-fold over immobilized amyloglucosidase alone. No decrease in activity was observed after 4 months storage for the co-immobilized enzymes. The results suggest that co-immobilization of amyloglucosidase and pullulanase in polyurethane foams is a potentially useful approach for commercial starch hydrolysis.

The effect of protein concentration in partitioning in PEG/salt aqueous two-phase systems has been investigated. PEG 4000/phosphate systems in the presence of 0% w/w and 8.8% w/w NaCl have been evaluated using amyloglucosidase, subtilisin, and trypsin inhibitor. Also, a PEG 4000/phosphate system with 3% w/w NaCl was used for alpha-amylase. The concentration of the protein in each of the phases affected its partition behavior. The pattern for the individual proteins was dependent on their physicochemical properties. In the top phase, maximum protein concentration was determined mainly by a steric exclusion effect of PEG, and hydrophobic interaction between PEG and proteins. In the bottom phase, maximum concentration was determined mainly by a salting-out effect of the salts present. As the ionic strength was increased in the systems the concentration in the top phase increased for all proteins. In the bottom phase an increase in ionic strength increased the salting-out effect. Amyloglucosidase had a very low maximum concentration in the PEG-rich top phase which was probably due to its large size (steric exclusion) and low hydrophobicity, and a high concentration in the salt-rich bottom phase due to its high hydrophilicity. In the case of subtilisin and trypsin inhibitor, their high concentrations in the top phase were due to their hydrophobic nature (hydrophobic interaction with PEG) and small size (negligible steric exclusion). The maximum concentration in the bottom phase for trypsin inhibitor was lower than that of subtilisin which was probably due to its higher hydrophobicity and, hence, a stronger salting-out effect. The protein concentration in each of the two phases was correlated with a "saturation"-type equation. The partition coefficient could be satisfactorily predicted, as a function of the overall protein concentration, by the ratio between the "saturation" equations of the two individual phases. Better correlations were obtained when an empirical sigmoidal Boltzmann equation was fitted to the data, since in virtually all cases the partition coefficient is constant at low protein concentration (true partitioning) and changes to a different constant value at a high overall protein concentration.

Catabolite repression by glucose of the biosynthesis of alpha amylase and amyloglucosidase by Aspergillus niger CFTRI 1105 was studied in a solid state fermentation (SSF) and in submerged fermentation (SMF) systems and the results were compared. The addition of glucose did not enhance the production of alpha-amylase and amyloglucosidase in an earlier fermentation system. However, a drastic reduction in alpha-amylase production was observed in submerged fermentation by the addition of 5·0 mg ml−1 glucose and of amyloglucosidase production by 10 mg ml−1 glucose. Glucose concentrations above 50 mg ml−1 completely suppressed the production of both enzymes in the initial hours. In contrast, in the SSF system the repression was negligible, even when the glucose level was raised to 150 mg g−1 wheat bran for both alpha and amyloglucosidase synthesis. 相似文献

An enzyme preparation obtained from Aspergillus ustus, possessing cellulase, α-amylase, amyloglucosidase, proteinase and d-xylanase activities, was used along with commercial bacterial α-amylase and amyloglucosidase for the degradation of ragi (Eleusine coracana) flour and wheat (Triticum vulgare) bran. Lactic acid yield from ragi hydrolysate, adjusted to 5% reducing sugars (w/v), was 25% when fermented with Lactobacillus plantarum. The yields increased to 78% and 94% when the ragi hydrolysate was fortified with 20% and 60% (v/v) wheat bran hydrolysate, respectively. When commercial α-amylase and amyloglucosidase were used for the hydrolysis of ragi and wheat bran and L. plantarum was employed to ferment the hydrolysates containing 5% reducing sugars (w/v), lactic acid yields were 10% in ragi hydrolysate and 57% and 90% when the ragi hydrolysate was fortified with 20% and 60% (v/v) of wheat bran hydrolysate, respectively. α-Amylase and amyloglucosidase hydrolysed wheat bran added at 20% (v/v) as the sole source of nutrient to soluble starch hydrolysate (5% reducing sugars) gave 22% yield of lactic acid. The yield increased to 55% by the utilization of A. ustus enzyme preparation in addition to α-amylase and amyloglucosidase for wheat bran hydrolysis. 相似文献

A chemical synthesis of N-tris (beta-D-galactopyranosyloxymethyl) glycine methylamide (trisgalactosylglycine) has been carried out. Trisgalactosylglicine derivatives of bovine serum albumin, ovalbumin and amyloglucosidase from Aspergillus have been obtained. The binding of trisgalactosylglycine residues to bovine serum albumin and ovalbumin was performed by the carbodiimide method; amyloglucosidase galactosylation was performed by using the reductive amination method. The latter technique seems to be the most mild one because it does not interfere with the peptide structure of the protein being analyzed. The antiserum specifically raised against the trisgalactosylglycine derivative of bovine serum albumin as well as the monospecific antibodies isolated from it can interact with both the antigen and the trisgalactosylglycine derivatives of ovalbumin and amyloglucosidase. Native proteins are not precipitated with this antiserum. This suggests that the trigalactosylglycine residues (bovine serum albumin, ovalbumin, amyloglucosidase) covalently bound to various proteins act as immunologic determinants regardless of the mode of their binding. 相似文献

CO2 is known as a major attractant for many arthropod pests which can be exploited for pest control within novel attract-and-kill strategies. This study reports on the development of a slow-release system for CO2 based on calcium alginate beads containing granular corn starch, amyloglucosidase and Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Our aim was to evaluate the conditions which influence the CO2 release and to clarify the biochemical reactions taking place within the beads. The amyloglucosidase was immobilized with a high encapsulation efficiency of 87% in Ca-alginate beads supplemented with corn starch and S. cerevisiae biomass. The CO2 release from the beads was shown to be significantly affected by the concentration of amyloglucosidase and corn starch within the beads as well as by the incubation temperature. Beads prepared with 0.1 amyloglucosidase units/g matrix solution led to a long-lasting CO2 emission at temperatures between 6 and 25?°C. Starch degradation data correlated well with the CO2 release from beads during incubation and scanning electron microscopy micrographs visualized the degradation of corn starch granules by the co-encapsulated amyloglucosidase. By implementing MALDI-ToF mass spectrometry imaging for the analysis of Ca-alginate beads, we verified that the encapsulated amyloglucosidase converts starch into glucose which is immediately consumed by S. cerevisiae cells. When applied into the soil, the beads increased the CO2 concentration in soil significantly. Finally, we demonstrated that dried beads showed a CO2 production in soil comparable to the moist beads. The long-lasting CO2-releasing beads will pave the way towards novel attract-and-kill strategies in pest control. 相似文献

The soluble adenosine diphosphate glucose-starch glucosyltransferase of maize (Zea mays L.) endosperm uses adenosine diphosphate glucose as a sole substrate, but the starch granule-bound nucleoside diphosphate glucose-starch glucosyltransferase utilizes both adenosine diphosphate glucose and uridine diphosphate glucose. The soluble glucosyltransferase can be bound to added amylose or to maize starch granules that contain amylose. However, binding of the soluble enzyme to the starch granules does not change its substrate specificity to that of the natural starch granule-bound glucosyltransferase. Furthermore, the soluble glucosyltransferase bound to starch granules can be removed by repeated washing without a change in specificity. The bound glucosyltransferase can be released by mechanical disruption of starch granules, and the released enzyme behaves in a manner similar to that of the bound enzyme in several respects. These observations suggest that the soluble and bound glucosyltransferases are different enzymes. The starch granule-bound glucosyltransferase activity is linearly proportional to the number of Wx alleles present in the endosperm. This is compatible with the hypothesis that the Wx allele is a structural gene coding for the bound glucosyltransferase, which is important for the normal synthesis of amylose.Journal Paper No. 4818 of the Purdue University Agricultural Experiment Station. 相似文献

- 1.1. Following administration of purified amyloglucosidase from Aspergillus niger to rats, the enzyme accumulated in a liver lysosome-containing fraction. However, there was not extensive breakdown of liver glycogen. Most of the enzyme disappeared from blood over several hours.
- 2.2. In the isolated perfused liver, uptake of amyloglucosidase added to the perfusion medium was less extensive than that in the intact animal. There was no associated alteration of liver glycogen content or structure.
- 3.3. These results suggest that amyloglucosidase which can accumulate in liver is not accessible to the bulk of liver glycogen.
