Production of Pseudomonas Cells Having a High Fumarate Hydratase Activity

An extracellular 45 kDa endochitosanase was purified and characterized from the culture supernatant of Bacillus sp. P16. The purified enzyme showed an optimum pH of 5.5 and optimum temperature of 60°C, and was stable between pH 4.5-10.0 and under 50°C. The K _m and V _max were measured with a chitosan of a D.A. of 20.2% as 0.52 mg/ml and 7.71×10^?6 mol/sec/mg protein, respectively. The enzyme did not degrade chitin, cellulose, or starch. The chitosanase digested partially N-acetylated chitosans, with maximum activity for 15-30% and lesser activity for 0-15% acetylated chitosan. The chitosanase rapidly reduced the viscosity of chitosan solutions at a very early stage of reaction, suggesting the endotype of cleavage in polymeric chitosan chains. The chitosanase hydrolyzed (GlcN)₇ in an endo-splitting manner producing a mixture of (GlcN)_2-5. Time course studies showed a decrease in the rate of substrate degradation from (GlcN)₇ to (GlcN)₆ to (GlcN)₅, as indicated by the apparent first order rate constants, k ₁ values, of 4.98×10^?4, 2.3×10^?4, and 9.3×10^?6 sec^?1, respectively. The enzyme hardly catalyzed degradation of chitooligomers smaller than the pentamer.

Purification and characterization of an alkaline xylanase from alkaliphilic Micrococcus sp AR-135

An xylanase producing alkaliphilic Micrococcus sp was isolated from an alkaline soda lake. Xylose and xylan induced enzyme production but no activity was detected when it was grown using other carbohydrate sources. The level of xylanase production was higher in the presence of xylose than in the presence of xylan. The enzyme was purified to homogeneity and its molecular weight was estimated to be 56 kD on SDS-PAGE. The optimum temperature and pH for xylanase activity were 55°C and 7.5–9.0, respectively. Sixty per cent of the maximum activity was displayed at pH 11. The enzyme was very stable in the pH range of 6.5–10 and up to a temperature of 40°C. Xylanase activity was inhibited by Cu²⁺ and Hg²⁺.

棉属A染色体组的核型研究

本文报道了棉属A染色体组3个种(变种)的核型,阿非利加棉和草棉的核型公式均为20m+4sm(2sat)+2st(2sat),亚洲棉的核型公式为22m+2sm(2sa t)+2st(2 sat)。平均臂比和染色体长度比分别是:阿非利加棉1.63和1. 73,草棉1.87和1.74,亚洲棉1.58和1.62。其随体均大而明显,数目和位置相同。3个种(变种)的核型同质性与其分类学上同归于A染色体组是一致的。阿非利加棉和草棉的亲缘关系比二者与亚洲棉的密切,但它们存在核型构成的差异,这些差异同时也证实了系统演化史上阿非利加棉先于草棉的论点。     

Polyphenol Components in Cultured Cells of Amacha (Hydrangea macrophylla Seringe var. Thunbergii Makino)

In the course of our studies on the polyphenol components of the cultured cells of amacha, seven polyphenol compounds were isolated as pure crystals. The chemical structures of these compounds were determined by analytical methods (IR, UV, NMR and MS spectra) and colour reactions, and the compounds were identified as phyllodulcin, hydrangenol, daphnetin-8-monomethylether, umbelliferone, phyllodulcin-8-β-D-glucoside, hydrangenol-8-β-D-glucoside and skiminin (umbelliferone-7-β-D-glucoside). This is the first report of the isolation of phyllodulcin-8-β-D-glucoside and daphnetin-8-monomethylether from a natural source and of the other compounds from the cells of higher plants in suspension culture.     

Molecular Cloning and Expression of Proteinaceous α-Amylase Inhibitor Gene from Streptomyces nitrosporeus in Escherichia coli

The proteinaceous α-amylase inhibitor, T-76, gene was cloned by screening a Streptomyces nitrosporeus genomic library using a deoxyinosine-containing probe corresponding to the amino acid sequence of the inhibitor. The nucleotide sequence of the insert of a positive clone had an open reading frame of 330 bp that encoded a polypeptide of 110 amino acid residues with a calculated molecular mass of 11,306 daltons. The polypeptide begins with proximal basic amino acids and a region rich in hydrophobic amino acids that possibly act as a signal peptide for secretion, which is followed by a sequence consistent with the amino-terminal amino acid sequence of the T-76 inhibitor. Escherichia coli cells harboring the plasmid derivatives for expression produced the inhibitor in their periplasmic space. The amino-terminal sequence of the inhibitor produced by an E. coli transformant was identical to that of the T-76 inhibitor secreted by S. nitrosporeus. The amino acid sequence of the inhibitor deduced from nucleotide sequence showed significant homology to other proteinaceous α-amylase inhibitors.     

Growth-promoting Effects of N-Acetylneuraminic Acid-containing Substances on Bifidobacteria

The use of N-acetylneuraminic acid, sialyl-lactose, and glyco-macropeptide by bifidobacteria and lactobacilli, and their growth-promoting effects on B. longum, B. breve, B. bifidum, and B. infantis were investigated. The data presented here suggest that fortification with N-acetylneuraminic acid-containing substances of infant formula may provide formula-fed infants with a function that human milk possesses.
