The influence of nitrogen limitation on the regulation of the methanol oxidizing enzymes alcohol oxidase, catalase, formaldehyde dehydrogenase and formate dehydrogenase in the two methylotrophic yeastsHansenula polymorpha andKloeckera sp. 2201 was studied in continuous culture. When shifted from carbon-limited growth conditions (with a mixture of glucose and methanol as carbon sources) to a nitrogen-limited environment both cultures were found to go through a transition phase where neither enhanced residual concentrations of the nitrogen source nor of one of the two carbon sources could be detected in the supernatant. As soon as nitrogen became a limiting substrate an immediate reorganisation of the cell composition was initiated: protein content of the cells dropped to approximately 40% of its initial value, glycogen was synthesized and the enzyme composition of the cells was changed. The peroxisomal enzymes alcohol oxidase and catalase in both organisms and the two dehydrogenases for formaldehyde and formate in cells ofKloeckera sp. 2201 were subject to degradation (catabolite inactivation). The measured rates of inactivation indicated that in cells ofH. polymorpha this process might be limited to peroxisomes, whereas inKloeckera sp. 2201 the degradation was found to affect peroxisomal as well as cytoplasmic enzymes. In contrast to methanol dissimilating enzymes the net rate of synthesis of hexokinase, glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase and 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase was not affected by this process but those enzymes were synthesized with increased rates.  相似文献

A comparative study was made of the regulation of the synthesis of methanol dissimilating enzymes inkloeckera sp. 2201 andHansenula polymorpha using chemostat and batch growth conditions and methanol or glucose as carbon sources. During growth in methanol-limited chemostat cultures similar enzyme patterns for alcohol oxidase, catalase, formaldehyde dehydrogenase and formate dehydrogenase in the two yeasts were found. When growing in batch culture with glucoseH. polymorpha, but notKloeckera sp. 2201, was found to produce ethanol which might affect the synthesis of these enzymes.  相似文献

The regulation of the synthesis of alcohol oxidase, catalase, formaldehyde dehydrogenase and formate dehydrogenase was investigated in the methanol-utilizing yeast Hansenula polymorpha. The organism was found to synthesize immunologically identical alcohol oxidases during growth on glycerol and methanol. Growth on glycerol, however, was not dependent on the alcohol oxidase, as was shown with a mutant without alcohol oxidase protein. Similarly it was shown with a catalase activity negative mutant that high catalase activity during growth on glycerol was not a prerequisite for the utilization of this substrate, though absolutely required for growth on methanol.Experiments were conducted with mixed substrates to study the influence of methanol on alcohol oxidase synthesis. In batch cultures, growth on ribose plus methanol resulted in an enhanced rate of alcohol oxidase synthesis as compared to ribose alone. In continuous cultures, (D=0.1 h-1) addition of methanol to glycerol-, glucose-, or sorbose-limited cultures gave rise to increased alcohol oxidase activity of up to 20 U/mg, which is about by 2 times higher than the specific activity used for growth on methanol alone. The increase in specific activity of the dissimilatory enzymes on the mixed substrates is partly due to methanol per se, as was shown by a mutant unable to dissimilate or assimilate methanol.  相似文献

In the wild-type strain of methylotrophic yeast Pichia pinus diauxic growth is observed during cultivation in medium containing a mixture of methanol and ethanol: firstly, slow phase of ethanol utilization is revealed and, secondly, a fast phase of methanol consumption is shown. Diauxic growth is observed also in ecr1 mutant, impaired in ethanol-induced catabolite repression of methylotrophic metabolism enzymes, but the order of utilization of the alcohols is inverted in this mutant. Such succession of alcohols utilization in both strains correlates well with the sequence of synthesis of microbody enzymes which catalyze key reactions of C1- and C2-metabolism. On the contrary, simultaneous utilization of methanol and ethanol from the mixture, as well as synchronous synthesis of both peroxisomal and glyoxisomal enzymes is observed in adh1 mutant which has reduced alcohol dehydrogenase activity. The strong differences between the wild-type strain and adh1 mutant were observed also in the kinetics of specific activity changes for C1-metabolizing enzymes, localized in cytosol. In the wild-type strain during growth on methanol and ethanol mixture such changes correlate with the sequence of alcohol utilization. At the same time, in adh1 mutant the activities of formaldehyde dehydrogenase and formate dehydrogenase during the growth on the alcohols mixture are as high as during growth on methanol only, but the activity of dihydroxyacetone kinase is as low as under the growth on ethanol and is lower than on methanol.  相似文献

Activities of the enzymes of formaldehyde (FA) catabolism in recombinant strains of the methylotrophic yeast Hansenula polymorpha overproducing NAD+- and glutathione-dependent formaldehyde dehydrogenase (FADH) were studied under different cultivation conditions and at elevated FA content. Southern dot-blot analysis confirmed the presence of six to eight copies of the target FLD1 gene in stable recombinant clones of H. polymorpha. Under certain cultivation conditions, the transformants resistant to elevated FA concentrations were shown to produce FADH and other bioanalytically important enzymes: formate dehydrogenase, alcohol dehydrogenase, alcohol oxidase, and formaldehyde reductase. The optimal cultivation conditions for recombinants were determined, resulting in maximum synthesis of FADH: methanol as a carbon source, methylamine as a nitrogen source, FA as an inducer, temperature of 37°C, and cells in the early exponential phase of growth.  相似文献

Bacillus methanolicus MGA3 is a facultative methylotroph of industrial relevance that is able to grow on methanol as its sole source of carbon and energy. The Gram‐positive bacterium possesses a soluble NAD+‐dependent methanol dehydrogenase and assimilates formaldehyde via the ribulose monophosphate (RuMP) cycle. We used label‐free quantitative proteomics to generate reference proteome data for this bacterium and compared the proteome of B. methanolicus MGA3 on two different carbon sources (methanol and mannitol) as well as two different growth temperatures (50°C and 37°C). From a total of approximately 1200 different detected proteins, approximately 1000 of these were used for quantification. While the levels of 213 proteins were significantly different at the two growth temperatures tested, the levels of 109 proteins changed significantly when cells were grown on different carbon sources. The carbon source strongly affected the synthesis of enzymes related to carbon metabolism, and in particular, both dissimilatory and assimilatory RuMP cycle enzyme levels were elevated during growth on methanol compared to mannitol. Our data also indicate that B. methanolicus has a functional tricarboxylic acid cycle, the proteins of which are differentially regulated on mannitol and methanol. Other proteins presumed to be involved in growth on methanol were constitutively expressed under the different growth conditions.

A methane-utilizing organism capable of growth both on methane and on more complex organic substrates as a sole source of carbon and energy, has been isolated and studied in detail. Suspensions of methane-grown cells of this organism oxidized C-1 compounds (methane, methanol, formaldehyde, formate); hydrocarbons (ethane, propane); primary alcohols (ethanol, propanol); primary aldehydes (acetaldehyde, propionaldehyde); alkenes (ethylene, propylene); dimethylether; and organic acids (acetate, malate, succinate, isocitrate). Suspensions of methanol-or succinate-grown cells did not oxidize methane, ethane, propane, ethylene, propylene, or dimethylether, suggesting that the enzymatic systems required for oxidation of these substrates are induced only during growth on methane. Extracts of methane-grown cells contained a particulate reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide-dependent methane monooxygenase activity. Oxidation of methanol, formaldehyde, and primary alcohols was catalyzed by a phenazine methosulfate-linked, ammonium ion-requiring methanol dehydrogenase. Oxidation of primary aldehydes was catalyzed by a phenazine methosulfate-linked, ammonium ion-independent aldehyde dehydrogenase. Formate was oxidized by a nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide-specific formate dehydrogenase. Extracts of methane-grown, but not succinate-grown, cells contained the key enzymes of the serine pathway, hydroxypyruvate reductase and malate lyase, indicating that the enzymes of C-1 assimilation are induced only during growth on C-1 compounds. Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase was induced during growth on glucose. Extracts of methane-grown cells contained low levels of enzymes of the tricarboxylic acid cycle, including alpha-keto glutarate dehydrogenase, relative to the levels found during growth on succinate.  相似文献

Summary The oxidation of formaldehyde to carbon dioxide in cell-free extracts of methanol-grown Candida boidinii has been investigated. A specific NAD-dependent formaldehyde dehydrogenase requiring reduced glutathione has been partially purified. Furthermore, a NAD-linked formate dehydrogenase was found in cell-free extracts. The synthesis of these two enzymes is induced by methanol and repressed by glucose. The possible significance of these enzymes in the energy-generating system is discussed.  相似文献

The growth of Hansenula polymorpha and Kloeckera sp. 2201 with a mixture of glucose and methanol (38.8%/61.2%, w/w) and the regulation of the methanol dissimilating enzymes alcohol oxidase, catalase, formaldehyde dehydrogenase and formate dehydrogenase were studied in chemostat culture, as a function of the dilution rate. Both organisms utilized and assimilated glucose and methanol simultaneously up to dilution rates of 0.30 h-1 (H. polymorpha) and 0.26h-1, respectively (Kloeckera sp. 2201) which significantly exceeded max found for the two yeasts with methanol as the only source of carbon. At higher dilution rates methanol utilisation ceased and only glucose was assimilated. Over the whole range of mixed-substrate growth both carbon sources were assimilated with the same efficiency as during growth with glucose or methanol alone.In cultures of H. polymorpha, however, the growth yield for glucose was lowered by the unmetabolized methanol at high dilution rates. During growth on both carbon sources the repression of the synthesis of all catabolic methanol enzymes which is normally caused by glucose was overcome by the inductive effect of the simultaneously fed methanol. In both organisms the synthesis of alcohol oxidase was found to be regulated differently as compared to catalase, formaldehyde and formate dehydrogenase. Whereas increasing repression of the synthesis of alcohol oxidase was found with increasing dilution rates as indicated by gradually decreasing specific activities of this enzyme in cell-free extracts, the specific activities of this enzyme in cell-free extracts, the specific activities of catalase and the dehydrogenases increased with increasing growth rates until repression started. The results indicate similar patterns of the regulation of the synthesis of methanol dissimilating enzymes in different methylotrophic yeasts.Abbreviations and Terms C1 Methanol - C6 glucose; D dilution rate (h-1) - D c critical dilution rate (h-1) - q s specific, rate of substrate consumption (g substrate [g cell dry weight]-1 h-1) - q CO2 and q O2 are the specific rates of carbon dioxide release and oxygen consumption (mmol [g cell dry weight]-1 h-1) - RQ respiration quotient (q CO2 q O2 1 ) - s 0(C1) and s 0(C6) are the concentrations of methanol and glucose in the inflowing medium (g l-1) - s residual substrate concentration in the culture liquid (g l-1) - Sp.

A methanol-utilizing yeast Kloeckera sp. No. 2201, when grown with methanol as a sole carbon and energy source, accumulated about three times much flavin as those grown with glucose, ethanol, or glycerol. A high proportion of the total flavin was FAD in methanol-grown cells. A remarkable derepression of FAD pyrophosphorylase accompanied by an inducible formation of an FAD-dependent alcohol oxidase which catalyzes oxidation of methanol, the first step in the oxidation sequence, was observed during growth of the yeast on methanol. Significant elevations of riboflavin synthetase and flavokinase were also found. Formate, as well as methanol, effectively induced both FAD pyrophosphorylase and methanol-oxidizing enzymes (alcohol oxidase, formaldehyde dehydrogenase, formate dehydrogenase, and catalase). Observations with other methanol-utilizing yeasts also gave essentially same results. These results led to the conclusion that cellular flavin level might be under control with level of flavoprotein physiologically required.  相似文献

For Hyphomicrobium 53-49 capable of growing under various conditions, aerobic methanol, anaerobic methanol (with denitrification), autotrophic (H2-O2-CO2), aerobic ethanol and aerobic acetate, investigation and comparison of the specific activities of the following enzymes were performed: alcohol dehydrogenase (NAD-ethanol linked and NAD-methanol linked), primary alcohol dehydrogenase, formaldehyde dehydrogenase (NAD-GSH linked and DCPIP linked), formate dehydrogenase, serine hydroxymethyl transferase, hydroxypyruvate reductase, isocitrate lyase (icl), malate lyase, malate dehydrogenase, ribulosebisphosphate (RuBP) carboxylase, phos-phoenolpyruvate (PEP) carboxykinase (ADP linked), PEP carboxylase (phosphorylating), pyruvate carboxylase (NADH linked and NADPH linked) and α-ketoglutarate carboxylase (NADH linked and NADPH linked). On the basis of the data obtained, it was concluded that during growth on methanol, aerobically and anaerobically, the icl+ serine pathway operated, while during autotrophic growth on H2-O2-CO2, CO2 was incorporated through the RuBP pathway and others, and during growth on ethanol or acetate, neither the serine pathway nor the RuBP pathway operated. The organism changed its metabolism through the regulation of the metabolic enzymes according to the growth conditions.  相似文献

Lysine biosynthetic pathway enzymes of Bacillus brevis ATCC 1068 were studied as a function of stage of development (growth and sporulation). The synthesis of aspartic-2-eemialdehyde dehydrogenase (ASA-dehydrogenase), dihydrodipicolinate synthase (DHDPA-synthase), DHPA-reductase and diaminopimelate decarboxylase (DAP-decarboxylase) was found not to be co-regulated, since lysine was not a co-repressor for these enzymes. Unlike the aspartokinase isoenzymes, the other enzymes of the lysine pathway were not derepressed in thiosine-resistant, lysine-excreting mutants. Thus, the aspartokinase isoenzymes were the key enzymes during growth and regulation of lysine biosynthesis through restriction of l-ASA synthesis via feedback control by lysine on the aspartokinases was therefore suggested.In contrast to other Bacillus species, the levels of the lysine biosynthetic pathway enzymes of strain ATCC 10068 were not derepressed during the change from vegetative growth to sporulation. Two control mechanisms, enabling the observed preferential channelling of carbon for the synthesis of spore-specific diaminopimelic acid (DAP) and dipicolinic acid (DPA) were a) loss of DAP-decarboxylase, b) inhibition of DHDPA-reductase by DPA. Increase in the level of the DAP pool during sporulation, as a consequence of the loss of DAP-decarboxylase, and its relevance to the non-enzymatic formation of DPA has been discussed.Abbreviations l-ASA l-aspartic-2-semialdehyde - DAP diaminopimelic acid - DPA dipicolinic acid - DHDPA dihydrodipicolinate - AGM aspargine-glycerol medium - PY peptone-yeast extract - NB+NSM nutrient broth plus nutrient sporulation medium  相似文献

The activity of enzymes involved in methanol oxidation and assimilation as well as the levels of formaldehyde and glutathione were determined during batch cultivation of Candida boidinii KD1 in a medium with methanol. The distribution of [14C]methanol between oxidative and biosynthetic processes in the yeast was analysed. Changes in the concentrations of formaldehyde and glutathione were found to correlate with the activity of formaldehyde dehydrogenase. The results indicate that an increase in the concentration of reduced glutathione (GSH) at the early logarithmic phase of the yeast growth stimulates formaldehyde oxidation via formate to carbon dioxide whereas a subsequent decrease in the concentration of GSH favours formaldehyde assimilation.  相似文献

Bacillus fastidiosus was cultivated in batch and continuous culture on various carbon and nitrogen sources. The enzymes involved in allantoin degradation (allantoinase, urease, carboligase) of B. fastidiosus were hardly affected by either carbon or nitrogen source. In contrast, the enzymes involved in glycerol utilization (glycerol kinase, glycerol 3-phosphate dehydrogenase) were induced during growth on glycerol, but were not affected by the amount of allantoin present.  相似文献

Methyloversatilis universalis FAM5 is a facultative methylotrophic bacterium that has been found in a variety of natural and engineered ecosystems. The goal of this study was to investigate M. universalis FAM5 responses to different electron/carbon donors, e.g. methanol or ethanol, during anoxic growth in chemostats with nitrate as the electron acceptor. During steady‐state anoxic growth on either methanol or ethanol, over 90% of the influent nitrate was reduced primarily to nitrite. The cell yield on methanol was lower, possibly due to high energy requirements for C1 assimilation. Label‐free proteomics further revealed that methanol‐grown cells displayed elevated concentrations of the enzymes involved in C1 metabolism (H4MPT/H4F pathways, formate oxidation and serine cycle). In contrast, C2 metabolism (glyoxylate shunt and tri‐carboxylic acid cycle) and polyhydroxy‐β‐butyrate (PHB) synthesis related proteins were overrepresented during subsequent growth on ethanol. Notably, the expression of respiratory nitrate reductase was not affected by the carbon sources applied. Furthermore, the changes in the proteome upon switching back to methanol were mostly reversible. Therefore, M. universalis displays wide‐ranging responses to adapt between growth on methanol and ethanol. Such metabolic versatility could be particularly useful in wastewater treatment systems, which need to switch between different electron donors, while still reliably meeting effluent nitrogen discharge goals.  相似文献

Regulation of the synthesis of maltase and methanol-oxidizing enzymes by the carbon source has been analyzed in the methylotrophic yeastHansenula polymorpha. Maltase was shown to be responsible for the growth ofH. polymorpha not only on maltose, but also on sucrose. The affinity of maltase towards maltase substrates decreased in the order: 4-nitrophenyl glucoside (pNPG) <sucrose <maltose. Mutants with glucose repression-insensitive synthesis of alcohol oxidase and maltase were obtained fromH. polymorpha by mutagenesis and subsequent selection on methanol medium in the presence of 2-deoxy-d-glucose. One of the isolated mutants, L63, was studied in more detail. Mutant L63 was recessive and monogenic and it was not deficient in hexokinase. Its analysis revealed thatH. polymorpha most probably has a repressor protein that in the presence of glucose can down-regulate expression of both maltase and enzymes of methanol oxidation.  相似文献

The enzymology of methanol utilization in thermotolerant methylotrophic Bacillus strains was investigated. In all strains an immunologically related NAD-dependent methanol dehydrogenase was involved in the initial oxidation of methanol. In cells of Bacillus sp. C1 grown under methanol-limiting conditions this enzyme constituted a high percentage of total soluble protein. The methanol dehydrogenase from this organism was purified to homogeneity and characterized. In cell-free extracts the enzyme displayed biphasic kinetics towards methanol, with apparent K m values of 3.8 and 166 mM. Carbon assimilation was by way of the fructose-1,6-bisphosphate aldolase cleavage and transketolase/transaldolase rearrangement variant of the RuMP cycle of formaldehyde fixation. The key enzymes of the RuMP cycle, hexulose-6-phosphate synthase (HPS) and hexulose-6-phosphate isomerase (HPI), were present at very high levels of activity. Failure of whole cells to oxidize formate, and the absence of formaldehyde-and formate dehydrogenases indicated the operation of a non-linear oxidation sequence for formaldehyde via HPS. A comparison of the levels of methanol dehydrogenase and HPS in cells of Bacillus sp. C1 grown on methanol and glucose suggested that the synthesis of these enzymes is not under coordinate control.Abbreviations RuMP ribulose monophosphate - HPS hexulose-6-phosphate synthase - HPI hexulose-6-phosphate isomerase - MDH methanol dehydrogenase - ADH acohol dehydrogenase - PQQ pyrroloquinoline, quinone - DTT dithiothreitol - NBT nitrobluetetrazolium - PMS phenazine methosulphate - DCPIP dichlorophenol indophenol  相似文献

The synthesis of methanol dehydrogenase, formaldehyde dehydrogenase, and formate dehydrogenase by pink pigmented facultative methylotrophs (PPFM) has been studied during growth on C1 and multicarbon substrates. In batch cultures, the methanol dehydrogenase activities were higher during slow growth on non-C1-compounds than during fast growth on methanol. Derepression of this enzyme also occurred at slow growth in methanol-limited chemostat culture. Formaldehyde dehydrogenase and formate dehydrogenase remained largely repressed during growth on multicarbon substrates.  相似文献

Summary The effects of specific growth rate and medium feed composition on the metabolic reactions of methanol incorporation and oxidation have been studied in carbon-limited, chemostatic cultures of Methylomonas L3. An in situ radioisotopic tracer technique was employed. The in vivo rates of substrate-carbon flow and the corresponding steady-state levels of several key RuMP-type methylotrophic enzymes were determined over a range of dilution rates from 0.19 to 0.41 h-1 on methanol and methanol/formaldehyde substrates. It was determined that an absolute correlation does not exist between the in vivo specific carbon flux and the in vitro specific activity of any of the key enzymes studied. Oxidation of substrate-carbon via 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase is not stringently regulated in this methylotroph and the extent of its operation may be dependent on kinetic factors which make immediate cellular detoxification of formaldehyde imperative. As such, the cyclic oxidation mechanism in this methylotroph does not appear to be coupled to efficient energy utilization, since it was observed that high levels of the cyclic oxidation flux are commensurate with depressed biomass yields.  相似文献

The regulation of C1-metabolism in Xanthobacter strain 25a was studied during growth of the organism on acetate, formate and methanol in chemostat cultures. No activity of methanol dehydrogenase (MDH), formate dehydrogenase (FDS) or ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase (RuBisC/O) could be detected in cells grown on acetate alone over a range of dilution rates tested. Addition of methanol or formate to the feed resulted in the immediate induction of MDH and FDH and complete utilization (D=0.10 h-1) of acetate and the C 1-substrates. The activities of these enzymes rapidly dropped at the higher growth rates, which suggests that their synthesis is further controlled via repression by heterotrophic substrates such as acetate. Synthesis of RuBisC/O already occurred at low methanol concentrations in the feed, resulting in additive growth yields on acetate/methanol mixtures. The energy generated in the oxidation of formate initially allowed an increased assimilation of acetate (and a decreased dissimilation), resulting in enhanced growth yields on the mixture. RuBisC/O activity could only be detected at the higher formate/acetate ratios in the feed. The data suggest that synthesis of RuBisC/O and CO2 fixation via the Calvin cycle in Xanthobacter strain 25 a is controlled via a (de)repression mechanism, as is the case in other facultatively autotrophic bacteria. Autotrophic CO2 fixation only occurs under conditions with a diminished supply of heterotrophic carbon sources and a sufficiently high availability of suitable energy sources. The latter point is further supported by the clearly more pronounced derepressing effect exerted by methanol compared to formate.Abbreviations FDH formate dehydrogenase - FBPase fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase - ICDH isocitrate dehydrogenase - MDH methanol dehydrogenase - PQQ pyrrolo quinoline quinone - PRK phosphoribulokinase - RuBisC/O ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase - RuMP ribulose monophosphate - TCA tricarboxylic acid cycle  相似文献
