The white rot fungus Trametes trogii strain BAFC 463 produced laccase, manganese peroxidase, lignin peroxidase and cellobiose dehydrogenase, as well as two hydrogen peroxide‐producing activities: glucose oxidizing activity and glyoxal oxidase. In high‐N (40 mM N) cultures, the titres of laccase, MnP and GLOX were 27 (6.55 U/ml), 45 (403.00 mU/ml)and 8 (32,14 mU/ml) fold higher, respectively, than those measured in an N‐limited medium. This is consistent with the fact that the ligninolytic system of T. trogii is expressed constitutively. Lower activities of all the enzymes tested were recorded upon decreasing the initial pH of the medium from 6.5 to 4.5. Adding veratryl alcohol improved GLOX production, while laccase activity was stimulated by tryptophan. Supplying Tween 80 strongly reduced the activity of both MnP and GLOX, but increased laccase production. The titre of MnP was affected by the concentration of Mn in the culture medium, the highest levels were obtained with 90 μM Mn (II). LiP activity, as CDH activity, were detected only in the mediumsupplemented with sawdust. In this medium, laccase production reached a maximum of 4.75 U/ml, MnP 747.60 mU/ml and GLOX 117.11 mU/ml. LiP, MnP and GLOX activities were co‐induced, attaining their highest levels at the beginning of secondary metabolism, but while MnP, laccase, GLOX and CDH activities were also present in the primary growth phase, LiP activity appears to beidiophasic. The simultaneous presence of high ligninolytic and hydrogen peroxide producing activities in this fungus makes it an attractive microorganism for future biotechnological applications. 相似文献

Resistance of Penicillium piceumF-648 to hydrogen peroxide under short-term and prolonged oxidative stress was studied. An increase in the activity of intracellular catalase in fungal cells after short-term exposure to hydrogen peroxide was shown. Activation of fungal cells induced by H2O2 depends on the H2O2 concentration, time of exposure, and growth phase of the fungus. Variants of P. piceum F-648 that produced two forms of extracellular catalase with different catalytic properties were obtained due to prolonged adaptation to H2O2. Catalase with low affinity for substrate was produced predominantly by the parent culture and variant 3; however, a high substrate affinity of catalase was observed in variant 5. Variant 5 of P. piceum F-648 displayed a high catalytic activity and operational stability of catalase in the presence of phosphate ions and a concentration of substrate less than 30 mM at pH more than 7. 相似文献

Summary In order to investigate the ligninolytic activity with mixed cultures of wood-degrading fungi, and the influence of various growth conditions on this activity, 50 wood-degrading fungi were tested for ligninolysis in pure culture and in pair-wise combinations according to a simple plate test recently developed in this laboratory. It was found that a synergistic degradation of lignin and of lignosulfonate was common among fungi inoculated pair-wise on lignin or lignosulfonate media; decomposition was enhanced in the zone where the two mycelia interacted. This synergistic effect was noted with pairs of two different white-rot fungi, with pairs of one white-rot and one brown-rot fungus, and with pairs of one white-rot and one soil Deuteromycete.Lignosulfonate was more susceptible to the synergistic action of pairs of fungi than was lignin. The synergistic attack on lignosulfonate was more pronounced on a meager medium than on a carbohydrate-rich one. On the contrary, the ligninolysis with pure cultures of the fungi was more pronounced on the carbohydrate-rich medium, and lignin was decomposed more easily than was lignosulfonate. 相似文献

Abstract An extracellular peroxidase was purified by chromatofocusing column chromatography from the growth medium of ligninolytic cultures of the white-rot fungus Phanerochaete chrysosporium Burds BKM-1767. The enzyme was electrophoretically pure with an M r of 45 000–47 000. It contained an easily dissociable heme, and required Mn2+ ions for activity. In the presence of hydrogen peroxide and Mn2+ it oxidized compounds such as vanillylacetone, 2,6-dimethyloxyphenol, curcumin, syringic acid, guaiacol, syringaldazine, divanillylacetone, and coniferyl alcohol. It did not oxidize veratryl alcohol. In reactions requiring Mn2+ and O2 , but not hydrogen peroxide, the enzyme oxidized glutathione, dithiothreitol, and NADPH with production of hydrogen peroxide. The hydrogen peroxide produced could be used as a co-substrate by ligninases such as those that oxidize veratryl alcohol, or by the peroxidase itself to oxidize lignin model compounds. 相似文献

Catalases are the most important enzymatic systems used to degrade hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) into water and oxygen, thereby lowering intracellular hydrogen peroxide levels. Entomopathogenic fungi display increased catalase activity during germination and growth, which is necessary to counteract the hyperoxidant state produced by oxidative metabolism. We studied the influence of five different hydrocarbons on catalase production by Lecanicillium muscarium to determine the importance of catalase induction in fungal germination, stress tolerance and virulence. Conidia produced by colonies grown on different hydrocarbons showed higher rates of catalase activity compared to the control and the catalase activity of conidia produced on n-octacosane was three times higher than the activity of the control. This increase in catalase activity was accompanied by a higher level of resistance to exogenous hydrogen peroxide and a reduction in the germination time. Our study has helped to identify that increased catalase activity improves the germination and tolerance to different antioxidant stress response of L. muscarium. 相似文献

The specific activity of catalase in Salmonella typhimurium and other enteric bacteria decreased during the logarithmic phase of growth and increased at the onset and during the stationary phase. The increase in catalase synthesis at the end of the exponential phase in S. typhimurium cells coincided with the lowest pH value reached by the culture. Maintenance of the pH at a constant neutral value did not alter the typical pattern of synthesis in contradiction of the results previously reported (McCarthy and Hinshelwood. 1959). A sudden decrease in the pH value of an S. typhimurium culture during exponential growth by addition of HC1 did not cause an alteration in the catalase synthesis pattern. Addition of hydrogen peroxide to S. typhimurium cultures within the range 1 muM TO 2MM during the exponential growth phase stimulated catalase synthesis. The extent of catalase synthesis depended on the concentration of hydrogen peroxide; the maximum stimulation was observed at 80 muM. Increased catalase synthesis was not detected for 10 to 15 min after hydrogen peroxide addition. Hydrogen peroxide was produced by S. typhimurium cultures during the exponential and stationary growth phases. However, no direct relationship between hydrogen peroxide accumulation and synthesis of catalase was observed. 相似文献

Entomopathogenic fungi adapt to growth in a culture medium containing an insect-like hydrocarbon as the sole carbon source inducing the beta-oxidation pathway during the alkane degradation. The effect of two carbon sources on the catalase activity was studied in the entomopathogenic fungus Beauveria bassiana. Catalase activity was detected both in the peroxisomal and cytosolic fraction. A significant increment in the specific activity of the peroxisomal fraction (12.6-fold) was observed when glucose was replaced by an insect-like hydrocarbon, whereas the specific activity in the cytosol diminished more than 1.2-fold in the same culture condition. After purification to homogeneity by gel filtration and strong anion exchange chromatography, an apparent molecular mass of 54.7 and 84.0 kDa per subunit were determined respectively for the peroxisomal and cytosolic catalase. The enzymes showed different biochemical and kinetic characteristics, but both were inhibited by 3-amino-1,2,4 triazole. Peroxisomal catalase was sensitive to pH, heat and high concentration of the hydrogen peroxide substrate. Inversely the cytosolic isoform exhibited a broad range of optimal pH (6.0-10.0), high thermostability (<55 C) and remained fully active at least up to 70 mM hydrogen peroxide. Measurement of catalase activity is a new approach for evaluating fungal ability to degrade hydrocarbons. 相似文献

Summary A. According toMellon,Locke andShinn, the bacteriostatic action of sulfanilamide is due to the inactivation of (bacterial) catalase and the resulting accumulation
of hydrogen peroxide. The probability of this theory is discussed.
B. Catalase activity was studied by means ofPhotobacterium Fischeri, as an oxygen indicator. By adding hydrogen peroxide to the tested cultures of bacteria it has been demonstrated, that:
I.Bacterium coli, Photobacterium Fischeri andStreptococcus haemolyticus (strainAronson) contain catalase.
II. Sulfanilamide does not inactivate the catalase in blood.
III. Sulfanilamide does not inactivate bacterial catalase nor does it affect the production of catalase in the growing culture
containing the drug.
So we have to conclude that the assumption of catalase inactivation to be the essential factor in sulfanilamide action on
bacteria will not lead us to the solution of the problem.

Lentinula edodes is considered an alternative recycling agent for agricultural wastes, and there have been several studies to understand the relationship between its growth and ligninolytic activity. We tested the effect of wood from viticulture pruning, extracted with solvents of differing polarity, on the biomass production and activity pattern of ligninolytic enzymes. The analysis was done by measuring the mycelial dry mass and enzyme activity of liquid growth medium during the culture of L. edodes, adding either single extracts or a combination of extracts. Polar extracts enhanced mycelial production, and the activity patterns of lignin peroxidase, manganese peroxidase, aryl alcohol oxidase, and laccase were comparable to their activities predicted by ligninolysis models proposed for other fungi. We conclude that the polar extracts could be useful for enhancing fungal biomass production and for modifying lignin degradation because the regulation of ligninolytic enzyme activity is differentially influenced by the polarity of the extract. 相似文献

Catalases and peroxidases are the most important enzymes that degrade hydrogen peroxide into water and oxygen. These enzymes
and superoxide dismutase are the first lines of cell defense against reactive oxygen species. Metarhizium anisopliae displays an increase in catalase–peroxidase activity during germination and growth. To determine the importance of catalase
during the invasion process of M. anisopliae, we isolated the cat1 gene. cat1 cDNA expression in Escherichia coli and the subsequent purification of the protein confirmed that the cat1 gene codes for a monofunctional catalase. Expression analysis of this gene by RT-PCR from RNA isolated from fungus grown
in liquid cultures showed a decrease in the expression level of the cat1 gene during germination and an increase during mycelium growth. The expression of this gene in the fungus during the infection
process of the larvae of Plutella xylostella also showed a significant increase during invasive growth. Transgenic strains overexpressing the cat1 gene had twice the catalase activity of the wild-type strain. This increase in catalase activity was accompanied by a higher
level of resistance to exogenous hydrogen peroxide and a reduction in the germination time. This improvement was also observed
during the infection of P. xylostella larvae. M. anisopliae transgenic strains overexpressing the cat1 gene grew and spread faster in the soft tissue of the insect, reducing the time to death of the insect by 25% and the dose
required to kill 50% of the population 14-fold. 相似文献

Purification, partial characterization, and possible role of catalase in the bacterium Vitreoscilla 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Vitreoscilla is a gram-negative bacterium that contains a unique bacterial hemoglobin that is relatively autoxidizable. It also contains a catalase whose primary function may be to remove hydrogen peroxide produced by this autoxidation. This enzyme was purified and partially characterized. It is a protein of 272,000 Da with a probable A2B2 subunit structure, in which the estimated molecular size of A is 68,000 Da and that of B, 64,000 Da, and an average of 1.6 molecules of protoheme IX per tetramer. The turnover number for its catalase activity was 27,000 s-1 and the Km for hydrogen peroxide was 16 mM. The peroxidase activity measured using o-dianisidine was 0.6% that of the catalase activity. Cyanide, which inhibited both catalase and peroxidase activities, bound the heme in a noncooperative manner. Azide inhibited the catalase activity but stimulated the peroxidase activity. An apparent compound II was formed by the reaction of the enzyme with ethyl hydrogen peroxide. The enzyme was reducible by dithionite, and the ferrous enzyme reacted with CO. The cellular content of Vitreoscilla hemoglobin varies during the growth cycle and in cells grown under different conditions, but the ratio of hemoglobin to catalase activity remained relatively constant, indicating possible coordinated biosynthesis and supporting the putative role of Vitreoscilla catalase as a scavenger of peroxide generated by Vitreoscilla hemoglobin. 相似文献

The role of catalase in hydrogen peroxide resistance in Schizosaccharomyces pombe was investigated. A catalase gene disruptant completely lacking catalase activity is more sensitive to hydrogen peroxide than the parent strain. The mutant does not acquire hydrogen peroxide resistance by osmotic stress, a treatment that induces catalase activity in the wild-type cells. The growth rate of the disruptant is not different from that of the parent strain. Additionally, transformed cells that overexpress the catalase activity are more resistant to hydrogen peroxide than wildtype cells with normal catalase activity. These results indicate that the catalase of S. pombe plays an important role in resistance to high concentrations of hydrogen peroxide but offers little in the way of protection from the hydrogen peroxide generated in small amounts under normal growth conditions. 相似文献

Growth parameters, ligninolytic enzyme activities and ability to degrade polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons by the fungus Irpex lacteus were characterized and compared with those of other white rot fungi capable of rapid decolorization of poly R-478 and Remazol
Brilliant Blue R dyes. I. lacteus was able to grow on mineral and complex media and efficiently colonized sterile and non-sterile soil by exploratory mycelium
growing from a wheat straw inoculum. In shallow stationary cultures growing on high nitrogen mineral medium containing 45 mM
ammonium as nitrogen source, the fungus produced lignin peroxidase (LIP), Mn-dependent peroxidase (MnP) and laccase simultaneously,
the respective maximal activities of 70, 970 and 36 U/l being attained around day 18. Growing in nitrogen-limited medium (2.4 mM
ammonium), no LIP was formed and levels of MnP and laccase decreased significantly. During growth in sterile soil, the fungus
synthesized LIP and laccase but not MnP. I. lacteus efficiently removed three- and four-ringed PAHs from liquid media and artificially spiked soil. The variety of ligninolytic
enzymes, robust growth, capability of soil colonization and resistance to inhibitory action of soil bacteria make I. lacteus a suitable fungal organism for use in bioremediation.

The white-rot basidiomycete Phanerochaete chrysosporium BKM-F-1767 was tested for its capacity to degrade dehydroabietic acid (DHA). In anaerobic treatment, this molecule is the
most recalcitrant member of the resin acid group, which is known to cause operational problems to anaerobic reactors treating
pulp and paper industry wastewaters. In this study the effect of DHA on different parameters, such as growth, ligninolytic
enzyme activity, extracellular protein production as well as both glycerol and ammonium consumption by the fungus, was determined.
Although the above parameters were affected by the addition of DHA, the results show that the fungus could still produce significant
titres of ligninolytic enzymes. The fungus removed 47% of the DHA initially present in the static culture, after 10 days of
incubation. Anaerobic toxicity assays showed that the treatment of DHA with P. chrysosporium reduced the methanogenesis and acetogenesis inhibition caused by DHA and allowed improved methane production by the anaerobic
bacteria.

The role of adipokinetic hormone (AKH) in counteracting oxidative stress elicited in the insect body is studied in response to exogenously applied hydrogen peroxide, an important metabolite of oxidative processes. In vivo experiments reveal that the injection of hydrogen peroxide (8 µmol) into the haemocoel of the firebug, Pyrrhocoris apterus L. (Heteroptera: Pyrrhocoridae) increases the level of AKH by 2.8‐fold in the central nervous system (CNS) and by 3.8‐fold in the haemolymph. The injection of hydrogen peroxide also increases the mortality of experimental insects, whereas co‐injection of hydrogen peroxide with Pyrap‐AKH (40 pmol) reduces mortality to almost control levels. Importantly, an increase in haemolymph protein carbonyl levels (i.e. an oxidative stress biomarker) elicited by hydrogen peroxide is decreased by 3.6‐fold to control levels when hydrogen peroxide is co‐injected with Pyrap‐AKH. Similar results are obtained using in vitro experiments. Oxidative stress biomarkers such as malondialdehyde and protein carbonyls are significantly enhanced upon exposure of the isolated CNS to hydrogen peroxide in vitro, whereas co‐treatment of the CNS with hydrogen peroxide and Pyrap‐AKH reduces levels significantly. Moreover, a marked decrease in catalase activity compared with controls is recorded when the CNS is incubated with hydrogen peroxide. Incubation of the CNS with hydrogen peroxide and Pyrap‐AKH together curbs the negative effect on catalase activity. Taken together, the results of the present study provide strong support for the recently published data on the feedback regulation between oxidative stressors and AKH action, and implicate AKH in counteracting oxidative stress. The in vitro experiments should facilitate research on the mode of action of AKH in relation to oxidative stress, and could help clarify the key pathways involved in this process. 相似文献

Bentazon removal by Ganoderma lucidum cultured in liquid and solid state conditions was compared in this work. In solid state cultures, the fungus produced both
ligninolytic enzymes, namely laccase and Mn peroxidase. In liquid cultures, the main ligninolytic enzyme produced was laccase.
In both types of cultures bentazon improved the production of laccase without significant alteration in the production of
Mn peroxidase. In solid state cultures, where high levels of both laccase and Mn peroxidase activities were found, the fungus
was more resistant to the action of the herbicide (50 mM in solid state cultures against 20 mM in liquid cultures) and more
efficient in removing bentazon (90% removal against 55% in liquid cultures after 10 days of cultivation). Furthermore, the
solid state culture filtrates were more efficient in the in vitro degradation of bentazon than the liquid culture filtrates.
These observations suggest that both enzymes, laccase and Mn peroxidase, are involved in bentazon degradation. The results
further suggest that solid state cultures of Ganoderma lucidum could be useful in strategies designed to reduce environmental contamination by bentazon. 相似文献

The involvement of hydroxyl radical derived from hydrogen peroxide in lignin degradation by the white rot fungus Phanerochaete chrysosporium 总被引:15,自引:0,他引:15
The possible involvement of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2)-derived hydroxyl radical (.OH) in lignin degradation ([14C]lignin leads to 14CO2) by Phanerochaete chrysosporium was investigated. When P. chrysosporium was grown in low nitrogen medium (2.4 mM N), an increase in the specific activity for H2O2 production in cell extracts was observed to coincide with the appearance of ligninolytic activity and both activities appeared after the culture entered stationary phase. The production of .OH in ligninolytic cultures of P. chrysosporium was demonstrated by alpha-keto-gamma-methiolbutyric acid-dependent formation of ethylene. Hydrogen peroxide-dependent .OH formation was also shown in cell extracts of ligninolytic cultures. The radical species was demonstrated to be .OH by the .OH-dependent hydroxylation of p-hydroxybenzoic acid to form protocatechuic acid and by using 5,5-dimethyl-1-pyrroline-N-oxide and detecting the production of the nitroxide radical of 5,5-dimethyl-1-pyrroline-N-oxide by EPR. These reactions were inhibited by .OH-scavenging agents and were stimulated when azide was added to inhibit endogenous catalase. Lignin degradation by P. chrysosporium was markedly suppressed in the presence of the .OH-scavenging agents mannitol, benzoate, and the nonspecific radical scavenging agent butylated hydroxytoluene. The above results indicate that .OH derived from H2O2 is involved in lignin biodegradation by P. chrysosporium. 相似文献

Hydrogen peroxide generation rates of uninfected and infected leaves of two tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum) cultivars showing differential susceptibility to Botrytis cinerea were determined. The superoxide anion, hydroxyl radical, ascorbate contents and changes in NADH peroxidase, superoxide dismutase (SOD), ascorbate peroxidase (APX) and catalase (CAT) activities in the apoplast fraction were analysed. Infected leaves had an increased hydrogen peroxide level. It was greater and generally occurred earlier in plants of the less susceptible cv. Perkoz than in those of the more susceptible cv. Corindo. Induction of nitrotetrazolium blue reducing activity and SOD levels in apoplast were higher in cv. Perkoz 24 h after inoculation. In the controls, NADH peroxidase activity in apoplast was higher in the more susceptible cv. Corindo, but after infection it increased faster and to a higher level in the less susceptible cv. Perkoz. NADH oxidation was inhibited by only 15% by a specific inhibitor DPI (diphenylene‐iodonium) but was completely inhibited by KCN and NaN3. Similar increases in APX activity after 48 h and a small increase in catalase activities were observed in both cultivars soon after infection. These results indicate that resistance of tomato plants to infection by the necrotrophic fungus B. cinerea may result from early stimulation of hydrogen peroxide and superoxide radical generations by NADH peroxidase and SOD in apoplastic space, and they confirm the important role of their enhanced production in apoplastic spaces of plants. 相似文献

Oxalic acid and hydrogen peroxide have been suggested to be essential in the degradation of wood carbohydrates by brown-rot fungi. The production of oxalic acid, hydrogen peroxide and endo-β-1,4-glucanase activity by the brown-rot fungus Poria placenta was studied on crystalline cellulose, amorphous cellulose and glucose media. Oxalic acid and hydrogen peroxide by P. placenta were clearly produced on culture media containing either crystalline or amorphous cellulose. Oxalic acid and hydrogen peroxide were formed simultaneously and highest amounts of oxalic acid (1.0 g l−1) and hydrogen peroxide (39.5 μM) were obtained on amorphous cellulose after 3 weeks cultivation. On glucose medium the amounts were low. The endoglucanase activity was observed to increase during the cultivation and was most pronounced on glucose medium and thus indicated the constitutive characteristics of the brown-rot cellulases. 相似文献
