Purification and partial characterization of a fibrinolytic enzyme from the fruiting body of the medicinal and edible mushroom Pleurotus ferulae

A fibrinolytic metalloprotease with in vitro fibrinolytic effects was purified from the edible mushroom Pleurotus ferulae using several chromatography steps including anion and ion exchange, gel filtration, and fast protein liquid chromatography columns. The molecular mass of the enzyme was estimated to be 20.0?kDa, as determined using sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and fibrin zymography. The protease was active at 50°C, and pH 4.0, 5.0, and 8.0. The fibrinolytic activity of the enzyme was inhibited by ethyleneglycol-bis-(2-aminoethyl)-N,N,N′,N′ tetraacetic acid and strongly inhibited by two metal ions, Cu and Mg. In vitro assays evaluating fibrinolytic activity on a fibrin plate, fibrin turbidity, and thrombolytic activity on fibrin clots using human fibrinogen and human thrombin revealed that the enzyme could hydrolyze fibrin polymers directly and inhibit the formation of fibrin clots. In activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) and prothrombin time assays, the enzyme strongly prolonged the APTT, which detects an activity of intrinsic and common pathways. The enzyme showed strong in vivo protective effect against mortality/paralysis from epinephrine plus collagen-induced acute thromboembolism in in vivo model. Our findings suggest that the enzyme may have a potential for treatment and prevention of thrombosis-relative diseases.     

Biochemical analysis of a fibrinolytic enzyme purified from <Emphasis Type="Italic">Bacillus subtilis</Emphasis> strain A1

A fibrinolytic enzyme from Bacillus subtilis strain Al was purified by chromatographic methods, including DEAE Sephadex A-50 column chromatography and Sephadex G-50 column gel filtration. The purified enzyme consisted of a monomeric subunit and was estimated to be approximately 28 kDa in size by SDS-PAGE. The specific activity of the fibrinolytic enzyme was 1632-fold higher than that of the crude enzyme extract. The fibrinolytic activity of the purified enzyme was approximately 0.62 and 1.33 U/ml in plasminogen-free and plasminogen-rich fibrin plates, respectively. Protease inhibitors PMSF, DIFP, chymostatin, and TPCK reduced the fibrinolytic activity of the enzyme to 13.7, 35.7, 15.7, and 23.3%, respectively. This result suggests that the enzyme purified from B. subtilis strain Al was a chymotrypsin-like serine protease. In addition, the optimum temperature and pH range of the fibrinolytic enzyme were 50°C and 6.0–10.0, respectively. The N-terminal amino acid sequence of the purified enzyme was identified as Q-T-G-G-S-I-I-D-P-I-N-G-Y-N, which was highly distinguished from other known fibrinolytic enzymes. Thus, these results suggest a fibrinolytic enzyme as a novel thrombolytic agent from B. subtilis strain Al.     

Purification and biochemical characterization of a 17 kDa fibrinolytic enzyme from <Emphasis Type="Italic">Schizophyllum commune</Emphasis>

A fibrinolytic enzyme of the mushroom, Schizophyllum commune was purified with chromatographic methods, including a DEAE-Sephadex A-50 ion-exchange column and gel filtrations with Sephadex G-75 and Sephadex G-50 columns. The analysis of fibrin-zymography and SDS-PAGE showed that the enzyme was a monomeric subunit that was estimated to be approximately 17 kDa in size. The fibrinolytic activity of the enzyme in plasminogen-rich and plasminogen-free fibrin plates was 1.25 and 0.44 U/ml, respectively. The N-terminal amino acid sequence of the purified enzyme was identified as HYNIXNSWSSFID, which was highly distinguished from known fibrinolytic enzymes. The relative activity of the purified enzyme with an addition of 5 mM EDTA, Phosphoramidon, and Bestatin was about 76, 64, and 52%, respectively, indicating that it is a metalloprotease. The optimum temperature for the purified enzyme was approximately 45°C, and over 87% of the enzymatic activity was maintained as a stable state in a pH range from 4.0 to 6.0. Therefore, our results suggest that the potential thrombolytic agent from S. commune is a unique type of fibrinolytic enzyme.

Enzymatic properties and identification of a fibrinolytic serine protease purified from Bacillus subtilis DC33

A novel fibrinolytic enzyme subtilisin FS33 was purified from Bacillus subtilis DC33, isolated from a traditional flavour-rich food in China. The purified subtilisin FS33 was a single chain protein with a molecular mass of 30 kDa measured by SDS-PAGE. After activated SDS-PAGE, the enzyme band exhibited strong fibrinolytic activity on the fibrin plate. Subtilisin FS33 was temperature-stable below 60°C over the pH range 5–12, with a maximum activity at pH 8.0, but the activity completely disappeared after 10 min above 65°C. The NH₂-terminal amino acid sequence of the enzyme was different from that of other known fibrinolytic enzymes, such as NK, CK, SMCE, KA38, subtilisin E, subtilisin DFE and Katsuwokinase. The amidolytic activities of subtilisin FS33 were inhibited completely by phenylmethanesulfonyl fluoride (PMSF) and soybean trypsin inhibitor (SBTI). EDTA did not affect the enzyme activity, and none of the ions tested activated the activity. Therefore, the enzyme was thought to be a subtilisin-like serine protease. The enzyme degraded the Bβ-chains of fibrin(ogen) very rapidly and then degraded the Aα-chain and at least five fragments from fibrin(ogen) were obtained after hydrolysis. Subtilisin FS33 was also able to cleave blood clots in the absence of endogenous fibrinolytic factors.     

A rapid and strong increase of plasminogen activator induced by experimental anaphylaxis in rabbits.

Anaphylactic shock was induced in rabbits by injecting bovine serum albumin (BSA) as an antigen. Measurements of the enzyme activities in the fibrinolytic system confirmed that a rapid and strong increase of plasminogen activator (PA) was induced during anaphylaxis. The euglobulin fibrinolytic activity (EFA) as estimated by the plasminogen-rich fibrin plate method rose significantly, peaking at 15 min after the BSA injection (when the arterial pressure was minimum). However, EFA was not detected by the plasminogen-poor fibrin plate method. The tissue-type PA (t-PA) activity using the natural substrate plasminogen increased significantly with a peak at 15 min. The amidolytic activity also simultaneously increased significantly using the t-PA substrate, H-D-Ile-Pro-Arg-pNA. The plasminogen activator inhibitor (PAI) activity remained at baseline levels until 30 min, but rose fourfold at 90 min. The main plasma fibrinolytic enzyme which increased in anaphylaxis was proved by zymography to be t-PA with a molecular weight (MW) of 69,000.     

Purification of serine protease from polychaeta, <Emphasis Type="Italic">Lumbrineris nipponica</Emphasis>, and assessment of its fibrinolytic activity

Ischemic stroke and cardiovascular disease can occur from blockage of blood vessels by fibrin clots formed naturally in the body. Therapeutic drugs of anticoagulant or thrombolytic agents have been studied; however, various problems have been reported such as side effects and low efficacy. Thus, development of new candidates that are more effective and safe is necessary. The objective of this study is to evaluate fibrinolytic activity, anti-coagulation, and characterization of serine protease purified from Lumbrineris nipponica, polychaeta, for new thrombolytic agents. In the present study, we isolated and identified a new fibrinolytic serine protease from L. nipponica. The N-terminal sequence of the identified serine protease was EAMMDLADQLEQSLN, which is not homologous with any known serine protease. The size of the purified serine protease was 28 kDa, and the protein purification yield was 12.7%. The optimal enzyme activity was observed at 50°C and pH 2.0. A fibrin plate assay confirmed that indirect fibrinolytic activity of the purified serine protease was higher than that of urokinase-PA, whereas direct fibrinolytic activity, which causes bleeding side effects, was relatively low. The serine protease did not induce any cytotoxicity toward the endothelial cell line. In addition, anticoagulant activity was verified by an in vivo DVT animal model system. These results suggest that serine protease purified from L. nipponica has the potential to be an alternative fibrinolytic agent for the treatment of thrombosis and use in various biomedical applications.     

Production,Purification and Stability Studies on Nattokinase: A Therapeutic Protein Extracted from Mutant <Emphasis Type="Italic">Pseudomonas aeruginosa</Emphasis> CMSS Isolated from Bovine Milk

Nattokinase (NK) is a potent fibrinolytic enzyme with the potential for fighting against cardiovascular diseases. In this study, UV mutated Pseudomonas aeruginosa CMSS was used for production, purification and to study the stability of the enzyme. The enzyme was subjected to step by step purification by ammonium sulphate precipitation, dialysis, ion-exchange chromatography and gel filtration chromatography. The purified NK showed 91.84 % of clot lysis, comparable to standard streptokinase. The stability of the purified enzyme was analysed by different parameters such as pH, temperature, metal ions, surfactants and organic solvents. The molecular weight of the enzyme was determined as 27 kDa by SDS-PAGE and confirmed by fibrin zymography. The enzyme obtained its highest activity at pH 5 and at 45 °C. The present study showed the presence of fibrinolytic enzyme by its specificity. Further analysis of the biochemical properties and the precise mechanism of fibrinolytic enzymes will expand the scope of research for development of therapeutic agents to treat thrombosis.     

Purification and characterization of a fibrinolytic enzyme produced from Bacillus sp. strain CK 11-4 screened from Chungkook-Jang.

Bacillus sp. strain CK 11-4, which produces a strongly fibrinolytic enzyme, was screened from Chungkook-Jang, a traditional Korean fermented-soybean sauce. The fibrinolytic enzyme (CK) was purified from supernatant of Bacillus sp. strain CK 11-4 culture broth and showed thermophilic, hydrophilic, and strong fibrinolytic activity. The optimum temperature and pH were 70 degrees C and 10.5, respectively, and the molecular weight was 28,200 as determined by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The first 14 amino acids of the N-terminal sequence of CK are Ala-Gin-Thr-Val-Pro-Tyr-Gly-Ile-Pro-Leu-Ile-Lys-Ala-Asp. This sequence is identical to that of subtilisin Carlsberg and different from that of nattokinase, but CK showed a level of fibrinolytic activity that was about eight times higher than that of subtilisin Carlsberg. The amidolytic activity of CK increased about twofold at the initial state of the reaction when CK enzyme was added to a mixture of plasminogen and substrate (H-D-Val-Leu-Lys-pNA). A similar result was also obtained from fibrin plate analysis.     

Purification and characterization of a fibrinolytic enzyme of Bacillus subtilis DC33, isolated from Chinese traditional Douchi

Bacillus subtilis DC33 producing a novel fibrinolytic enzyme was isolated from Ba-bao Douchi, a traditional soybean-fermented food in China. The strong fibrin-specific enzyme subtilisin FS33 was purified to electrophoretic homogeneity using the combination of various chromatographic steps. The optimum temperature, pH value, and pI of subtilisin FS33 were 55°C, 8.0, and 8.7, respectively. The molecular weight was 30 kDa measured by SDS–PAGE under both reducing and non-reducing conditions. The enzyme showed a level of fibrinolytic activity that was about six times higher than that of subtilisin Carlsberg. The first 15 amino acid residues of N-terminal sequence of the enzyme were A-Q-S-V-P-Y-G-I-P-Q-I-K-A-P-A, which are different from that of other known fibrinolytic enzymes. The amidolytic activities of subtilisin FS33 were inhibited completely by 5 mM phenylmethanesulfonyl fluoride (PMSF) and 1 mM soybean trypsin inhibitor (SBTI), but 1,4-dithiothreitol (DTT), β-mercaptoethanol, and p-hydroxymercuribenzoate (PHMB) did not affect the enzyme activity; serine and tryptophan are thus essential in the active site of the enzyme. The highest affinity of subtilisin FS33 was towards N-Succ-Ala-Ala-Pro-Phe-pNA. Therefore, the enzyme was considered to be a subtilisin-like serine protease. The fibrinolytic enzyme had a high degrading activity for the Bβ-chains and Aα-chain of fibrin(ogen), and also acted on thrombotic and fibrinolytic factors of blood, such as plasminogen, urokinase, thrombin, and kallikrein. So subtilisin FS33 was able to degrade fibrin clots in two ways, i.e., (a) by forming active plasmin from plasminogen and (b) by direct fibrinolysis.

Process optimization for production and purification of novel fibrinolytic enzyme from Stenotrophomonas sp. KG-16-3

Intravascular thrombosis is a major cardiovascular complication responsible for high mortality worldwide. Existing thrombolytic agents are expensive and have various side effects. As a consequence, researchers continue to search for better thrombolytic agents. Fibrinolytic proteases especially those of microbial origin are considered as potential therapeutic candidates for thrombosis. The current study reports fibrinolytic protease from a bacterial isolate Stenotrophomonas sp. KG-16-3, as it exhibits high fibrinolytic activity on fibrin agarose plate. Studies on fibrinolytic protease from Stenotrophomonas sp. are lacking. So, a detailed study was conducted for the production and purification of fibrinolytic protease. Optimizing process parameters using the Design of Experiments method enhanced the yield by 1.5-fold. The fibrinolytic enzyme was purified by ammonium sulfate precipitation, ion-exchange and gel-filtration chromatography resulting in 7.1-fold purification and 16.7% yield with specific activity of 383.8?U/mg. The purified enzyme exhibited higher fibrinolytic activity than plasmin and had a molecular weight of 39?kDa. Optimal activity of the enzyme was observed at 50?°C and pH 10. The enzyme exhibited stability up to 60?°C, over pH 7–10 and in the presence of different metal ions and solvents. The activity of the enzyme was significantly reduced in the presence of phenylmethyl sulfonyl fluoride, iodoacetic acid and 1,10-phenanthroline, suggesting that the enzyme belonged to the serine–cysteine metalloprotease category. The present study is the first ever report on the Design of Experiments based optimization of fermentation conditions for the production of fibrinolytic protease from Stenotrophomonas sp.     

Functional expression of an earthworm fibrinolytic enzyme in <Emphasis Type="Italic">Escherichia coli</Emphasis>

Two cDNA fragments (lrF1 and lrF2) representing a fibrinolytic enzyme gene of F-III-2 (GenBank AB045719), without and with signal peptide coding sequence, were cloned from earthworm Lumbricus rubellus. The two fragments were inserted into bacterial expression vector pET28a (+), respectively. Subsequent expression showed that both lrF1 and lrF2 proteins were produced as an inclusion body form in E. coli BL21 (DE3) pLysE. After protein refolding and purification, the fusion lrF1 and its derivative without poly histidine tags at the N-terminus showed fibrinolytic activity on fibrin plates with relative activity of 134.3 U/mg protein and 139.7 U/mg protein, respectively, whereas the fusion lrF2 and its derivative without the tags at the N-terminus, had no fibrinolytic activity. The results indicated that the E. coli expression system could not recognize the endogenous signal peptide of F-III-2, and the effect of the histidine tags at the N-terminus on the fibrinolytic activity of the expressed protein was insignificant.     

Purification and characterization of a novel fibrinolytic protease from <Emphasis Type="Italic">Fusarium</Emphasis> sp. CPCC 480097

A novel fibrinolytic enzyme from Fusarium sp. CPCC 480097, named Fu-P, was purified to electrophoretic homogeneity using ammonium sulfate precipitation and ion exchange and gel filtration chromatography. Fu-P, a single protein had a molecular weight of 28 kDa, which was determined by SDS-PAGE and gel filtration chromatography. The isoelectric point of Fu-P determined by isoelectric focusing electrophoresis (IEF) was 8.1, and the optimum temperature and pH value were 45°C and 8.5, respectively. Fu-P cleaved the α-chain of fibrin (ogen) with high efficiency, and the β-chain and γ-γ (γ-)-chain with lower efficiency. Fu-P activity was inhibited by EDTA and PMSF, and the enzyme exhibited a high specificity for the chymotrypsin substrate S-2586. Fu-P was therefore identified as a chymotrypsin-like serine metalloprotease. The first 15 amino acids of the N-terminal sequence of Fu-P were Q-A-S–S-G-T-P-A-T-I-R-V-L-V–V and showed no homology with that of other known fibrinolytic enzymes. This protease may have potential applications in thrombolytic therapy and in thrombosis prevention.

A novel source of fibrinolytic activity: <Emphasis Type="Italic">Bionectria</Emphasis> sp., an unconventional enzyme-producing fungus isolated from Las Yungas rainforest (Tucumán,Argentina)

Fibrinolytic enzyme production was evaluated in fungal specimens isolated from the sub-tropical Las Yungas Pedemontana forest (Tucumán, Argentina). Proteolytic and fibrinolytic activities were evaluated in freeze-thaw crude extracts from 230 fungal isolates on 1% w/v skimmed-milk or 0.25% w/v fibrin-agar plates, respectively. Proteolytic activity was positive in 62% of the isolates, whilst only three of them were able to produce extracellular fibrinolytic enzymes on solid nutritive medium. Fibrinolytic-positive extracts were able to degrade fibrin clots in a direct plasminogen-independent way. Selected isolates were identified by sequencing the 26S rDNA D1/D2 domain. Isolates LY 4.1 and LY 4.4 showed a 99.9% similarity with Bionectria ochroleuca, while LY 4.2 showed a 99.9% identity with Cladosporium cladosporioides. Under submerged culture conditions, LY 4.1 and LY 4.4 were able to excrete fibrinolytic enzymes, reaching a maximum at 120 h of cultivation of 100.2 and 107.9 U/ml in plasmin-equivalent units, respectively. Fibrinolytic enzyme production could be scaled-up to fermenter scale reaching similar values. Fibrin zymography showed that fibrinolytic activity was associated with ~173-, 153- and 80-kDa protein fractions. Extracellular fibrinolytic enzymes from Bionectria species may be potentially related to pathogenesis mechanisms, as already demonstrated for serine-proteases from the nematicidal anamorph Clonostachys rosea. This work reveals the potential of Bionectria strains as an unconventional and unexplored production alternative to already known thrombolytic agents. The value of Las Yungas forests as a reservoir of fungal species with promising biotechnological value could be also highlighted.

Fibrinolytic and coagulation activity level during formation of experimental thrombus in dog's saphena vein

We could success in formation of the experimental thrombus by direct insertion of bovine fibrinogen into the lateral saphena vein of the dog. This method enabled us to clearly confirm the thrombus formation by X-ray micrograph. It was confirmed that this operation did not affect fibrinolytic and coagulation factors of experimental dogs. Reproducibility and stability of the result were also confirmed. So this experimental thrombus formation model is versatile for pharmacodynamic screening tests of the fibrinolytic enzyme system.
