An extracellular protease was produced under stress conditions of high temperature and high salinity by a newly isolated moderate halophile, Salinivibrio sp. strain AF-2004 in a basal medium containing peptone, beef extract, glucose and NaCl. A modification of Kunitz method was used for protease assay. The isolate was capable of producing protease in the presence of sodium chloride, sodium sulfate, sodium nitrate, sodium nitrite, potassium chloride, sodium acetate and sodium citrate. The maximum protease was secreted in the presence of 7.5 to 10% (w/v) sodium sulfate or 3% (w/v) sodium acetate (4.6 U ml−1). Various carbon sources including glucose, lactose, casein and peptone were capable of inducing enzyme production. The optimum pH, temperature and aeration for enzyme production were 9.0, 32 °C and 220 rpm, respectively. The enzyme production corresponded with growth and reached a maximum level during the mid-stationary phase. Maximum protease activity was exhibited in the medium containing 1% (w/v) NaCl at 60 °C, with 18% and 41% activity reductions at temperature 50 and 70 °C, respectively. The optimum pH for enzyme activity was 8.5, with 86% and 75% residual activities at pH 10 and 6, respectively. The activity of enzyme was inhibited by EDTA. These results suggest that the protease secreted by Salinivibrio sp. strain AF-2004 is industrially important from the perspectives of its activity at a broad pH ranges (5.0–10.0), its moderate thermoactivity in addition to its high tolerance to a wide range of salt concentration (0–10% NaCl).  相似文献

The effect of various organic solvents on the activity and stability of an extracellular protease produced by the haloalkaliphilic archaeon Natrialba magadii was tested. This protease was active and stable in aqueous-organic solvent mixtures containing 1.5 M NaCl and glycerol, dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO), N,N-dimethyl formamide, propylenglycol, and dioxane. Among the solvents tested, DMSO, propylenglycol, and glycerol were effective in preserving enzyme stability in suboptimal NaCl concentrations. The stabilizing effect of DMSO on this haloalkaliphilic protease was more efficient at pH 8 than at pH 10, suggesting that DMSO may not substitute for salt to allow halophilic proteins to withstand the effect of high pH values. These results show that Nab. magadii extracellular protease is a solvent tolerant enzyme and suggest a potential application of this haloalkaliphilic protease in aqueous-organic solvent biocatalysis.  相似文献

Three mold strains isolated from soil in the Taipei area of Taiwan were compared with a commercial strain of Aspergillus oryzae for their proteolytic activities in an 18% NaCl aqueous solution system. Among these strains, the one subsequently identified and designated as Aspergillus sp. FC-10 produced protease with superior saline tolerance. In aflatoxin tests, this strain did not generate detectable aflatoxin after growing on steamed grain polished rice substrate for 24 days. Two types of extracellular proteases were preliminary fractionated by column chromatography on DEAE Sepharose CL-6B. Proteolytic activity of the nonadsorbed protease (P-I) was reduced to 9.4% in the 18% NaCl solution compared to its original activity determined in the buffer solution. However, the adsorbed protease (P-II) was particularly salt tolerant and stable, with 50% proteolytic activity retained throughout the 6-h stability test in 18% NaCl solution.

AIMS: The aim of this study was to investigate the lipolytic activity of cold-adapted Antarctic marine bacteria and, furthermore, the combined effect of some environmental factors on this enzymatic process. METHODS AND RESULTS: Strains were assayed for lipolytic activity on a basal medium amended with seven individual fatty acid esters. A significant activity was observed for 148 isolates (95.5% of the total screened). The interactive effect of pH, temperature and NaCl concentration on the substrates was tested for six representative isolates, identified as Pseudoalteromonas, Psychrobacter and Vibrio. Differences between strains according to NaCl and pH tolerances were observed. Only one strain degraded the substrate more efficiently at 4 degrees C than at 15 degrees C. CONCLUSIONS: Our findings demonstrate that the lipolytic activity of Antarctic marine bacteria is rather variable, depending on culture conditions, and occurs in a wide range of salt concentration and pH. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY: Isolation and characterization of bacteria that are able to efficiently remove lipids at low temperatures will provide insight into the possibility to use cold-adapted bacteria as a source of exploitable enzymes. Moreover, research on the interactive effects of salt concentration, pH and temperature will be useful to understand the true enzyme potentialities for industrial applications.  相似文献

Four strains of acid-tolerant and protein-using bacteria were isolated from compost. Two of them, Gram-negative strains MB8 and MB11, were identified as a new genus close to Stenotrophomonas species MB8 and Burkholderia species MB11, respectively. Both bacteria produced extracellular carboxyl proteases (CP) in acid-casein-starch medium. The enzymes, termed CP MB8 and CP MB11, purified through ion exchange and gel filtration chromatographies had molecular weights of 61,000 (CP MB8) and 36,000 (CP MB11) as estimated by SDS-PAGE, and showed optimum activities with hemoglobin as a substrate at pH 3.5 (CP MB8) and pH 3.7 (CP MB11) at 55 degrees C. Both of the enzymes were not inhibited by pepstatin, DAN, or EPNP. These results suggest that both enzymes are members of the pepstatin-insensitive carboxyl proteinase family (EC 3.4.23.33), except for a larger molecular weight of the CP MB8 enzyme.  相似文献

An alkaline protease secreting Haloalkaliphilic bacterium (Gene bank accession number EU118361) was isolated from the Saurashtra Coast in Western India. The alkaline protease was purified by a single step chromatography on phenyl sepharose 6 FF with 28% yield. The molecular mass was 40 kDa as judged by SDS-PAGE. The enzyme displayed catalysis and stability over pH 8–13, optimally at 9–11. It was stable with 0–4 M NaCl and required 150 mM NaCl for optimum catalysis at 37 °C; however, the salt requirement for optimal catalysis increased with temperature. While crude enzyme was active at 25–80 °C (optimum at 50 °C), the purified enzyme had temperature optimum at 37 °C, which shifted to 80 °C in the presence of 2 M NaCl. The NaCl not only shifted the temperature profile but also enhanced the substrate affinity of the enzyme as reflected by the increase in the catalytic constant (K cat). The enzyme was also calcium dependent and with 2 mM Ca+2, the activity reached to maximum at 50 °C. The crude enzyme was highly thermostable (37–90 °C); however, the purified enzyme lost its stability above 50 °C and its half life was enhanced by 30 and sevenfold at 60 °C with 1 M NaCl and 50 mM Ca+2, respectively. The activity of the enzyme was inhibited by PMSF, indicating its serine type. While the activity was slightly enhanced by Tween-80 (0.2%) and Triton X-100 (0.05%), it marginally decreased with SDS. In addition, the enzyme was highly stable with oxidizing-reducing agents and commercial detergents and was affected by metal ions to varying extent. The study assumes significance due to the enzyme stability under the dual extremities of pH and salt coupled with moderate thermal tolerance. Besides, the facts emerged on the enzyme stability would add to the limited information on this enzyme from Haloalkaliphilic bacteria.  相似文献

AIMS: Isolation and screening of extreme halophilic archaeon producing extracellular haloalkaliphilic protease and optimization of culture conditions for its maximum production. METHODS AND RESULTS: Halogeometricum sp. TSS101 was isolated from salt samples and screened for the secretion of protease on gelatin and casein plates containing 20% NaCl. The archaeon was grown aerobically in a 250 ml flask containing 50 ml of (w/v) NaCl 20%; MgCl(2) 1%; KCl 0.5%; trisodium citrate 0.3%; and peptone 1%; pH 7.2 at 40 degrees C on rotary shaker. The production of enzyme was investigated at various pH, temperatures, NaCl concentrations, metal ions and different carbon and nitrogen sources. The partially purified protease had activity in a broad pH range (7.0-10.0) with optimum activity at pH 10.0 and a temperature (60 degrees C). The enzyme was thermostable and retained 70% initial activity at 80 degrees C. Maximum protease production occurred at 40 degrees C in a medium containing 20% NaCl (w/v) and 1% skim milk powder after 84 h in shaking culture. Enzyme secretion was observed at a broad pH range of 7.0-10.0. Addition of CaCl(2) (200 mmol) to the culture medium enhanced the production of protease. Protein rich flours proved to be cheap and good alternative source for enzyme production. Different osmolytes were tested for the growth and production of haloalkaliphilc protease and found that betaine and glycerol enhanced growth without secretion of the protease. Immobilization studies showed that whole cells immobilized in 2% alginate beads were stable up to 10 batches and able to secrete the protease, which attained maximum production within 60 h under shaking conditions. CONCLUSIONS: Halogeometricum sp. TSS101 secreted an extracellular haloalkaliphilic and thermostable protease. The optimum conditions required for maximum production are 20% NaCl, 1% skim milk powder and temperature at 40 degrees C. Addition of CaCl(2) (200 mmol) enhanced the enzyme production. Immobilization of whole cells in absence of NaCl proved to be useful for continuous production of haloalkaliphilic protease. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STudy: The low cost protein rich flours were used as an alternative carbon and nitrogen sources for enzyme production. Immobilization of halophilic cells in alginate beads can be used in continuous production of halophilic enzyme. The halophilic and thermostable protease from Halogeometricum sp. TSS101 is good source for industrial applications and can be a suitable source for preparation of fish sauce.  相似文献

The marine bacterium Pseudoalteromonas sp. strain A28 was able to kill the diatom Skeletonema costatum strain NIES-324. The culture supernatant of strain A28 showed potent algicidal activity when it was applied to a paper disk placed on a lawn of S. costatum NIES-324. The condensed supernatant, which was prepared by subjecting the A28 culture supernatant to ultrafiltration with a 10,000-M(w)-cutoff membrane, showed algicidal activity, suggesting that strain A28 produced extracellular substances capable of killing S. costatum cells. The condensed supernatant was then found to have protease and DNase activities. Two Pseudoalteromonas mutants lacking algicidal activity, designated NH1 and NH2, were selected after N-methyl-N'-nitrosoguanidine mutagenesis. The culture supernatants of NH1 and NH2 showed less than 15% of the protease activity detected with the parental strain, A28. The protease was purified to homogeneity from A28 culture supernatants by using ion-exchange chromatography followed by preparative gel electrophoresis. Paper-disk assays revealed that the purified protease had potent algicidal activity. The purified protease had a molecular mass for 50 kDa, and the N-terminal amino acid sequence was determined to be Ala-Thr-Pro-Asn-Asp-Pro. The optimum pH and temperature of the protease were found to be 8.8 and 30 degrees C, respectively, by using succinyl-Ala-Ala-Pro-Phe-p-nitroanilide as a substrate. The protease activity was strongly inhibited by phenylmethylsulfonyl fluoride, diisopropyl fluorophosphate, antipain, chymostatin, and leupeptin. No significant inhibition was detected with EDTA, EGTA, phenanthroline or tetraethylenepentamine. These results suggest that Pseudoalteromonas sp. strain A28 produced an extracellular serine protease which was responsible for the algicidal activity of this marine bacterium.  相似文献

Bacillus subtilis strain FP-133, isolated from a fermented fish paste, synthesized two novel halotolerant extracellular proteases (expro-I and expro-II), showing activity and stability at concentrations of 0-20% (w/v) NaCl. Each protease was purified to homogeneity and characterized. The purified expro-I was a non-alkaline serine protease with an optimum pH of 7.5, although most serine proteases from Bacillus strains act at the alkaline side. The molecular mass of expro-I was 29 kDa. The purified expro-II was a metalloprotease with a molecular mass of 34 kDa. It was activated by Fe(2+), which has never been reported as a bacterial protease activator. At a concentration of 7.5% (w/v) NaCl, both proteases preferred animal proteins to vegetable proteins as natural substrates. In addition, under saline conditions, expro-I and II showed high catalytic activity toward gelatin and casein respectively.  相似文献

Bacterial isolates from the gland of Deshayes of the marine shipworm (Psiloteredo healdi) produced extracellular protease activity when cultured with 1% cellulose. A protease with a relative molecular mass of 36,000 daltons as determined by SDS-PAGE and a pI of 8.6 was isolated from the medium and purified to electrophoretic homogeneity. No carbohydrate appeared to be associated with the protein. The enzyme was activated and stabilized by relatively high salt concentrations (>0.2M). Below 0.1M salt, significant protein aggregation occurred, as well as autohydrolysis of the protease, both of which resulted in the loss of activity. The specific activity of the enzyme was 65,840 proteolytic units/mg with azocasein substrate of optimal temperature (42°C), pH (9.0), and salt concentration (0.20M NaCl). The activity was stable up to 40°C, from pH 3.0 to pH 11.9, and from 0.1M to 3.5M NaCl. These stabilities, as well as the protease's stability in the presence of chelators, oxidizing agents, and heavy metals, suggest the enzyme has potential for use in relatively low temperature (40°C) industrial applications.The mention of firm names or trade products does not imply that they are endorsed or recommended by the U.S. Department of Agriculture over other firms or similar products not mentioned.  相似文献

Proteolytic Aeromonas caviae P-1-1 growing at wide-ranging pH (7.0–11.0) and moderate salinity (0–5% NaCl) was isolated from cattle shed of Thanjavur, India. It produced lipase, gelatinase, and polyhydroxybutyrate. Different culture conditions, incubation time, carbon and nitrogen sources, vitamins, amino acids, surfactants, and metal ions for optimal growth and protease production of P-1-1 were examined. Maximum protease (0.128?U/mL) production was achieved with 1% fructose, 1% yeast extract, 0.1% ammonium sulfate, 3% NaCl, 0.1% CaCl2?·?2H2O, 1% glycine, 0.1% vitamin E, and 0.1% Tween-40 at pH 8.0 after 42?hr of incubation at 37°C. It was active over broad range of pH (7.0–12.0), temperature (15–100°C), and salinity (0–9% NaCl) with optima at pH 10.0, 55°C, and 3% NaCl. It retained 65 and 48% activities at pH 12.0 and 100°C, respectively. Partially purified protease was highly stable (100%) within pH range 7.0–12.0 and salinities of 0–5% NaCl for 48?hr. Cu2+, Mn2+, Co2+, and Ca2+ did not inhibit its activity. Its stability at extreme pHs, temperatures, and in the presence of surfactants and commercial detergents suggests its possible application in laundry detergents. Partially purified protease was immobilized and reused. This is the first report of alkali-thermotolerant, surfactant–detergent-stable partially purified extracellular protease from A. caviae.  相似文献

The activity and culturable diversity of sulfidogens were investigated in anoxic sediments of four hypersaline lakes with pH 7.6-8.2 in the Kulunda Steppe (Altai, Russia). Sulfate reduction rates were low, varying from 0.1 to 6.0 nmol HS(-) /(cm(3) h) with a maximum in the top 10 cm layer. Potential sulfidogenic rates with thiosulfate and sulfur as the e-acceptors were higher than with sulfate and were stimulated by formate, lactate, and acetate. Sulfidogenesis was optimal at salt concentrations below 2 M NaCl. Cultivation at 2 M NaCl resulted in the isolation of several strains of moderately halophilic SRB, but no growth of SRB was observed at 4 M NaCl. At lithotrophic conditions (i.e., with formate or H(2) as e-donors), several closely related alkalitolerant strains belonging to the genus Desulfonatronovibrio were isolated. Enrichments at heterotrophic conditions with lactate, propionate, acetate, or butyrate using sulfate or thiosulfate as e-acceptors yielded isolates related to Desulfosalsimonas propionicica, Desulfohalobium utahense, and Desulfocella halophila. Sulfur-reducing enrichments at 2 M NaCl with ethanol produced a member of the genus Halanaerobium, while enrichments at 4 M NaCl with acetate were dominated by archaea, demonstrating for the first time such type of catabolism in haloarchaea.  相似文献

The ability to produce phosphatidylcholine phospholipase C (lecithinase) is associated with virulence in pathogenic species of Listeria. Levels of production vary greatly among members of the genus, and this virulence factor is not readily detectable in many members of the pathogenic species on conventional agar media containing egg yolk, a common substrate for the enzyme. In this study, the influence of a variety of environmental parameters, including temperature, pH, and salt concentration, on the production of lecithinase by a number of strains was evaluated. Lecithinase production by Listeria monocytogenes LO28 in brain heart infusion medium was optimal at 1.75 to 2.0% NaCl; pH 7.0 to 7.3, and 37 to 40 degrees C, and the presence of oxygen had no effect. In a chemically defined medium, the optimal NaCl concentration and temperature were lower at 0.75 to 1.0% NaCl and 33.5 degrees C. As detection of virulence factors is useful to assist in the identification and differentiation of Listeria species, this report shows that lecithinase activity can conveniently be detected within 36 h on a relatively inexpensive medium. Under the conditions described, L. monocytogenes could be distinguished from other members of the genus as a result of distinct lecithin degradation which was not evident in L. innocua, L. seeligeri, L. ivanovii, L. welshimeri, or L. murrayi/grayi.  相似文献

Deep-ocean hydrothermal-vent environments are rich in heavy metals and metalloids and present excellent sites for the isolation of metal-resistant microorganisms. Both metalloid-oxide-resistant and metalloid-oxide-reducing bacteria were found. Tellurite- and selenite-reducing strains were isolated in high numbers from ocean water near hydrothermal vents, bacterial films, and sulfide-rich rocks. Growth of these isolates in media containing K(2)TeO(3) or Na(2)SeO(3) resulted in the accumulation of metallic tellurium or selenium. The MIC of K(2)TeO(3) ranged from 1,500 to greater than 2,500 micro g/ml, and the MIC of Na(2)SeO(3) ranged from 6,000 to greater than 7,000 micro g/ml for 10 strains. Phylogenetic analysis of 4 of these 10 strains revealed that they form a branch closely related to members of the genus Pseudoalteromonas, within the gamma-3 subclass of the Proteobacteria. All 10 strains were found to be salt tolerant, pH tolerant, and thermotolerant. The metalloid resistance and morphological, physiological, and phylogenetic characteristics of newly isolated strains are described.  相似文献

The production of a protease was investigated under conditions of high salinity by the moderately halophilic bacterium Halobacillus karajensis strain MA-2 in a basal medium containing peptone, beef extract, maltose and NaCl when the culture reached the stationary growth phase. Effect of various temperatures, initial pH, salt and different nutrient sources on protease production revealed that the maximum secretion occurred at 34°C, pH 8.0–8.5, and in the presence of gelatin. Replacement of NaCl by various concentrations of sodium nitrate in the basal medium also increased the protease production. The secreted protease was purified 24-fold with 68% recovery by a simple approach including a combination of acetone precipitation and Q-Sepharose ion exchange chromatography. The enzyme revealed a monomeric structure with a relative molecular mass of 36 kDa by running on SDS-PAGE. Maximum caseinolytic activity of the enzyme was observed at 50°C, pH 9.0 and 0.5 M NaCl, although at higher salinities (up to 3 M) activity still remained. The maximum enzyme activity was obtained at a broad pH range of 8.0–10.0, with 55 and 50% activity remaining at pH 6 and 11, respectively. Moreover, the enzyme activity was strongly inhibited by phenylmethylsulfonyl fluoride (PMSF), Pefabloc SC and EDTA; indicating that it probably belongs to the subclass of serine metalloproteases. These findings suggest that the protease secreted by Halobacillus karajensis has a potential for biotechnological applications from its haloalkaline properties point of view.  相似文献
