Purification and Some Properties of Maleylpyruvate Hydrolase and Fumarylpyruvate Hydrolase from Pseudomonas alcaligenes

Hydrolysis of the gentisate ring-cleavage product, maleylpyruvate (cis-2,4-diketohept-5-enedioic acid), was shown to be catalyzed by an enzyme, maleylpyruvate hydrolase 11, in Pseudomonas alcaligenes (P25X1) after growth with 3-hydroxybenzoate. This activity was separated from fumarylpyruvate hydrolase activity during the course of its purification which accomplished an approximately 50-fold increase in specific activity. An apparent molecular weight of 77,000 was assigned on the basis of Sephadex G-200 chromatography. Despite the presence of up to three similarly migrating bands of protein on polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis of the purified enzyme, at least two of these bands possessed maleylpyruvate hydrolase activity. Electrophoresis on sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide before and after reduction with mercaptoethanol gave a principal band of molecular weight of 33,000 (and a minor band of molecular weight 50,000). A number of substituted maleylpyruvates also served as substrates for maleylpyruvate hydrolase 11, but maleylacetoacetate and fumarylpyruvate were not attacked. Fumarylpyruvate hydrolase was purified approximately 40-fold to give a single band on polyacrylamide gels and with an apparent molecular weight of 73,000 by Sephadex G-200 chromatography. Upon sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis before or after reduction with mercaptoethanol, a subunit molecular weight of 25,000 was obtained. Neither maleylpyruvate nor fumarylacetoacetate served as substrates for fumarylpyruvate hydrolase. The activities of both maleyl- and fumarylpyruvate hydrolases were stimulated by Mn²⁺ ions. Reasons are discussed for the presence of both enzyme activities, one of which appears to be redundant.     

Four new triterpenoid saponins isolated from Schefflera kwangsiensis and their inhibitory activities against FBPase1

The structures of these compounds were elucidated on the basis of spectroscopic data analysis and chemical evidence. Furthermore, in in vitro assays, compounds 3, 8, 17, and 18 exhibited weak inhibitory activities against fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase (FBPase1).     

Purification and Properties of a Glycerol Ester Hydrolase (Lipase) from Propionibacterium shermanii

An intracellular glycerol ester hydrolase (lipase) from Propionibacterium shermanii was recovered from cell-free extracts and purified by ammonium sulfate precipitation, gel filtration, and ion-exchange chromatography on diethylaminoethylcellulose. Maximum enzyme activity was observed at pH 7.2 and 47 C when an emulsion of tributyrin was used as substrate. The enzyme was stable between pH 5.5 and 8. Heating the enzyme solution at 45 C for 10 min resulted in a 75% decrease in activity. Maximum rate of hydrolysis of triglycerides was observed on tripropionin, followed in order by tributyrin, tricaproin, and tricaprylin. The lipase was strongly inhibited by mercury and arsenicals, but specific sulfhydryl reagents had little or no inhibiting effect on the enzyme activity. The enzyme also showed some esterase activity, but the hydrolysis of substrates in solution was small as compared to the hydrolysis of substrates in emulsion.     

Purification and Properties of Hydroxycinnamic Acid Ester Hydrolase from Aspergillus japonicus

Hydroxycinnamic acid ester hydrolase from the wheat bran culture medium of Aspergillus japonicus was purified 255-fold by ammonium sulfate fractionation, DEAE-Sephadex treatment and column chromatographies on DEAE-Sephadex, CM-Sephadex and various other Sephadexes. The purified enzyme was free from tannase and found to be homogeneous on polyacrylamide disc gel electrophoresis. Its molecular weight was estimated to be 150,000 by gel filtration and 142,000 by SDS-gel electrophoresis. The isoelectric point of the enzyme was pH 4.80. As to its amino acid composition, aspartic acid and glycine were abundant. The optimum pH and temperature for the enzyme reaction were, respectively, 6.5 and 55°C when chlorogenic acid was used as a substrate. The enzyme was stable between pH 3.0 to 7.5 and inactivated completely by heat treatment at 70°C for 10 min.

All metal ions examined did not activate the enzyme, while Hg⁺⁺ reduced its activity. The enzyme was markedly inhibited by diisopropylfluorophosphate and an oxidizing reagent, iodine, although it was not affected so much by metal chelating or reducing reagents. The purified enzyme hydrolyzed not only esters of hydroxycinnamic acids such as chlorogenic acid, caffeoyl tartaric acid and p-coumaroyl tartaric acid, but also ethyl and benzyl esters of cinnamic acid. However, the enzyme did not act on ethyl esters of crotonic acid and acrylic acid or esters of hydroxybenzoic acids.     

Purification of Xyloglucan Hydrolase/Endotransferase from Cell Walls of Azuki Bean Epicotyls

An enzyme involved in the breakdown of xyloglucans was purifiedfrom an extract of cell walls of azuki bean epicotyls obtainedwith 1 M NaCl and purified by column chromatography on severaldifferent resins. The purified enzyme gave a single band ofa protein with a molecular mass of about 32 kDa after SDS-PAGE.The enzyme hydrolyzed the xyloglucans of high molecular massfrom azuki cell walls to yield fragments of about 50 kDa withoutproduction of any oligo- or monosaccharides. Moreover, the enzymehad hardly any effect on xyloglucans of less than 60 kDa. Theenzyme also hydrolyzed xyloglucans from tamarind, but it didnot react with cellulose derivatives. In the presence of pyridylamino-labeledxyloglucan oligosac-charides as acceptor substrates, the enzymecatalyzed the transfer of 50-kDa products to the oligosaccharides.The K_m value of the enzyme for xyloglucans of 540 kDa was similarin the presence and in the absence of xyloglucan oligosaccharidesas acceptors: 1.0 mg ml^–1. These results suggest thatthe enzyme was an endotransferase but had unusual acceptor specificity,preferring smaller acceptors such as water.

Purification and Characterization of Conjugated Bile Salt Hydrolase from Bifidobacterium longum BB536

Bifidobacterium species deconjugate taurocholic, taurodeoxycholic, taurochenodeoxycholic, glycocholic, glycodeoxycholic, and glycochenodeoxycholic acids. The enzyme level increases in the growth phase. No increase in activity is observed for the cytoplasmic enzyme after addition of conjugated bile acids to a stationary-phase culture. Conjugated bile salt hydrolase (BSH) was purified from Bifidobacterium longum BB536. Its apparent molecular mass in denaturing polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis was ca. 40,000 Da. The intact enzyme had a relative molecular weight of ca. 250,000 as determined by gel filtration chromatography, suggesting that the native BSH of B. longum is probably a hexamer. The purified enzyme is active towards both glycine and taurine conjugates of cholate, deoxycholate, and chenodeoxycholate. The pH optimum is in the range of 5.5 to 6.5. A loss of BSH activity is observed after incubation at temperatures higher than 42(deg)C; at 60(deg)C, 50% of the BSH activity is lost. The importance of free sulfhydryl groups at the enzyme active center is suggested. For B. longum BB536, no significant difference in the initial rate of deconjugation and enzymatic efficiency appears between bile salts. The enzymatic efficiency is higher for B. longum BB536 than for other genera. In this paper, a new method which permits a display of BSH activity directly on polyacrylamide gels is described; this method confirms the molecular weight obtained for B. longum BB536 BSH.
