黄原胶寡糖的抗氧化性能和非酶糖基化抑制作用研究

分别在酸性和碱性条件下通过氧化降解制备了两种黄原胶寡糖XG-H和XG-OH.红外光谱法对黄原胶寡糖的结构进行表征,凝胶渗透色谱法测定黄原胶寡糖的分子量,紫外可见分光光度法测定黄原胶寡糖的丙酮酸和还原糖含量,考察了两种黄原胶寡糖的抗氧化性能和非酶糖基化(NEG)的抑制作用.结果表明,XG-H和XG-OH都表现出一定的抗氧化能力且XG-OH强于XG-H; XG-OH促进5-羟甲基糠醛(非酶糖基化中间产物)的生成,但可显著抑制非酶糖基化荧光末端产物的生成.而XG-H表现出非酶糖基化促进作用.这可能与两种黄原胶寡糖的丙酮酸和还原糖含量有关.

Isolation and characterization of a xanthan-degrading Microbacterium sp. strain XT11 from garden soil

AIMS: Isolation and characterization of the xanthan-degrading Microbacterium sp. XT11. METHODS AND RESULTS: The bacterial isolate XT11, capable of fragmenting xanthan, has been isolated from soil sample. Morphological and biochemical analyses, as well as 16S rRNA gene sequence comparisons, demonstrated that strain XT11 should be grouped in the genus Microbacterium, and represented a new member in this family. Xanthan could be degraded by the xanthan-degrading enzyme released from strain XT11. It has been shown that xantho-oligosaccharides fragmented from xanthan had both elicitor activity and antibacterial effect against Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris. CONCLUSIONS: The xanthan-degrading enzyme produced by the newly isolated XT11 could fragment xanthan to form oligosaccharides. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY: Xanthan-degrading products would be useful for potential application in the control of black rot of cruciferous plants caused by X. campestris pv. campestris and, as an oligosaccharide elicitor, in making these plants resistant to disease.     

Characterization of the glucosyltransferases that assemble the side chains of the Indian Leishmania donovani lipophosphoglycan

The bacterium Bacillus sp. GL1 assimilates two kinds of heteropolysaccharides, gellan and xanthan, by using extracellular gellan and xanthan lyases, respectively, and produces unsaturated saccharides as the first degradation products. A novel unsaturated glucuronyl hydrolase (glycuronidase), which was induced in the bacterial cells grown on either gellan or xanthan, was found to act on the tetrasaccharide of unsaturated glucuronyl-glucosyl-rhamnosyl-glucose produced from gellan by gellan lyase, and the enzyme and its gene were isolated from gellan-grown cells. The nucleotide sequence showed that the gene contained an ORF consisting of 1131 base pairs coding a polypeptide with a molecular weight of 42,859. The purified enzyme was a monomer with a molecular mass of 42 kDa and was most active at pH 6.0 and 45 degrees C. Because the enzyme can act not only on the gellan-degrading product by gellan lyase, but also on unsaturated chondroitin and hyaluronate disaccharides produced by chondroitin and hyaluronate lyases, respectively, it is considered that the unsaturated glucuronyl hydrolase plays specific and ubiquitous roles in the degradation of oligosaccharides with unsaturated uronic acid at the nonreducing terminal produced by polysaccharide lyases.     

A pyruvated mannose-specific xanthan lyase involved in xanthan degradation by Paenibacillus alginolyticus XL-1.

The xanthan-degrading bacterium Paenibacillus alginolyticus XL-1, isolated from soil, degrades approximately 28% of the xanthan molecule and appears to leave the backbone intact. Several xanthan-degrading enzymes were excreted during growth on xanthan, including xanthan lyase. Xanthan lyase production was induced by xanthan and inhibited by glucose and low-molecular-weight enzymatic degradation products from xanthan. A xanthan lyase with a molecular mass of 85 kDa and a pI of 7.9 was purified and characterized. The enzyme is specific for pyruvated mannosyl side chain residues and optimally active at pH 6.0 and 55 degrees C.

Preparation and in vitro antioxidant activity of kappa-carrageenan oligosaccharides and their oversulfated, acetylated, and phosphorylated derivatives

In order to study the relationship between chemical structure and properties of modified carrageenans versus antioxidant activity in vitro, kappa-carrageenan oligosaccharides were prepared through mild hydrochloric acid hydrolysis of the polysaccharide, and these were used as starting materials for the partial synthesis of their oversulfated, acetylated, and phosphorylated derivatives. The structure and substitution pattern of the oligosaccharides and their derivatives were studied using FTIR and (13)C NMR spectroscopy, and their in vitro antioxidant activities were investigated. Certain derivatives of the carrageenan oligosaccharides exhibited higher antioxidant activity than the polysaccharides and oligosaccharides in certain antioxidant systems. The oversulfated and acetylated derivatives, which scavenge superoxide radicals, the phosphorylated and low-DS acetylated derivatives, which scavenge hydroxyl radicals, and the phosphorylated derivatives, which scavenge DPPH radicals, all exhibited significant antioxidant activities in the systems examined. The effect of the molecular weight of the carrageenan on antioxidant activities, however, is not obvious from these studies.

Several xanthan-degrading enzymes were excreted during growth on xanthan, including xanthan lyase.

Xanthan lyases--novel enzymes found in various bacterial species

Xanthan lyases, cleaving the terminal beta-mannosidic linkage of the side-chain of the exopolysaccharide xanthan from Xanthomonas campestris, have been obtained from several sources. These include a Bacillus species, a Corynebacterium species and a mixed culture. The lyases were initially associated with endo-beta-glucanases cleaving the main chain of xanthan. Partial purification of the enzymes was achieved and the Bacillus preparation was separated by FPLC into material free of endoglucanase and glycosidase activities. The lyase was active on polysaccharides with and without acetate and pyruvate. The optimal size of the substrate appeared to be in the range of degree of polymerization (DP) 25-35, i.e. 5-7 repeat units of the polysaccharide. No activity was found against xanthan modified by reduction of the carboxyl groups or by the addition of amine or hydroxyethyl groups. The combined action of the lyase and the endoglucanase yielded a series of oligosaccharides, each with a side-chain terminating in an unsaturated uronic acid and containing the molar ratio of D-glucose to D-mannose, 2:1.     

Antioxidant activity and cytoprotective effect of kappa-carrageenan oligosaccharides and their different derivatives

Antioxidant activity of kappa-carrageenan oligosaccharides (OM) and their chemical modification derivatives was investigated employing various established in vitro systems, such as reducing power, iron ion chelation, and total antioxidant activity using beta-carotene-linoleic acid system. The oversulfated (SD), lowly (LAD), and highly acetylated derivatives (HAD) in reducing power assay, the phosphorylated derivative (PD) in metal chelating assay, and oversulfated and phosphorylated derivatives in total antioxidant activity assay exhibited antioxidant activity higher than that of carrageenan oligosaccharides. The results indicated that the chemical modification of carrageenan oligosaccharides can enhance their antioxidant activity in vitro. The protective effects of the carrageenan oligosaccharides and their chemically modified derivatives against H(2)O(2) and UVA (long-wave ultraviolet radiation) induced oxidative damage on rat thymic lymphocyte were investigated by measuring cell viability via 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT). Thymic lymphocyte exposure to H(2)O(2) and UVA, a marked reduction in cell survival was observed, which was significantly prevented by carrageenan oligosaccharides and their derivatives (preincubated for 2h) at 66.7-2000 microg/mL. But both the carrageenan oligosaccharides and their different derivatives showed the similar protective effects on intracellular level. Taken together, these results suggest that carrageenan oligosaccharides and their derivatives show relevant antioxidant activity both in vitro and in a cell system.
