A novel alkylsulfatase gene, sdsAP, was cloned from a newly isolated bacterium Pseudomonas sp. S9. It encoded a protein of 675 amino acids with a calculated molecular mass of 74.9 kDa. The protein contained a typical
N-terminal signal peptide of 41 amino acid residues, followed by a metallo-β-lactamase like domain at the N-terminus and a
SCP-2-like domain at the C-terminus. This domain organization mode suggested that it belonged to the type III sulfatase. The
mature alkylsulfatase was overexpressed in Escherichia coli. The optimal temperature and pH of the recombinant SdsAP were 70°C and 9.0, respectively. Notably, at optimal conditions,
the purified recombinant SdsAP had a high specific activity of 23.25 μmol min−1 mg−1, a K
m (app) of 264.3 μmol, and a V
max (app) of 33.8 μmol min−1 mg−1 for SDS. Additionally, it still retained more than 90% activity after incubation at 65°C for 1 h, which was much different
from other alkylsulfatases reported. The recombinant enzyme hydrolyzed the primary alkyl sulfate such as sodium octyl sulfate
and sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS). It was a Zn2+-containing and Ca2+ activated alkylsulfatase. This is the first report to explore the various characteristics of the heterologous recombinant
alkylsulfatase in details. These favorable properties could make SdsAP attractive to be useful in the degradation of SDS-containing
waste. 相似文献

A superoxide dismutase (SOD) gene of Thermoascus aurantiacus var. levisporus, a thermophilic fungus, was cloned, sequenced, and expressed in Pichia pastoris and its gene product was characterized. The coding sequence predicted a 231 residues protein with a unique 35 amino acids
extension at the N-terminus indicating a mitochondrial-targeting sequence. The content of Mn was 2.46 μg/mg of protein and
Fe was not detected in the purified enzyme. The enzyme was found to be inhibited by NaN3, but not by KCN or H2O2. These results suggested that the SOD in Thermoascus aurantiacus var. levisporus was the manganese superoxide dismutase type. In comparison with other MnSODs, all manganese-binding sites were also conserved
in the sequence (H88, H136, D222, H226). The molecular mass of a single band of the enzyme was estimated to be 21.7 kDa. The
protein was expressed in tetramer form with molecular weight of 68.0 kDa. The activity of purified protein was 2,324 U/mg.
The optimum temperature of the enzyme was 55°C and it exhibited maximal activity at pH 7.5. The enzyme was thermostable at
50 and 60°C and the half-life at 80°C was approximately 40 min. 相似文献

Bacillus coagulans has been of great commercial interest over the past decade owing to its strong ability of producing optical pure l-lactic acid from both hexose and pentose sugars including l-arabinose with high yield, titer and productivity under thermophilic conditions. The l-arabinose isomerase (L-AI) from Bacillus coagulans was heterologously over-expressed in Escherichia coli. The open reading frame of the L-AI has 1,422 nucleotides encoding a protein with 474 amino acid residues. The recombinant
L-AI was purified to homogeneity by one-step His-tag affinity chromatography. The molecular mass of the enzyme was estimated
to be 56 kDa by SDS-PAGE. The enzyme was most active at 70°C and pH 7.0. The metal ion Mn2+ was shown to be the best activator for enzymatic activity and thermostability. The enzyme showed higher activity at acidic
pH than at alkaline pH. The kinetic studies showed that the K
m, V
max and k
cat/K
m for the conversion of l-arabinose were 106 mM, 84 U/mg and 34.5 mM−1min−1, respectively. The equilibrium ratio of l-arabinose to l-ribulose was 78:22 under optimal conditions. l-ribulose (97 g/L) was obtained from 500 g/l of l-arabinose catalyzed by the enzyme (8.3 U/mL) under the optimal conditions within 1.5 h, giving at a substrate conversion
of 19.4% and a production rate of 65 g L−1 h−1. 相似文献

A β-1,4-endoglucanase (Cel5A) was cloned from the genomic DNA of saccharolytic thermophilic eubacterium Thermoanaerobacter tengcongensis MB4 and functionally expressed in Escherichia coli. Substrate specificity analysis revealed that Cel5A cleaves specifically the β-1,4-glycosidic linkage in cellulose with high
activity (294 U mg−1; carboxymethyl cellulose sodium (CMC)). On CMC, kinetics of Cel5A was determined (K
m 1.39 ± 0.12 g l−1; k
cat/K
m 1.41 ± 0.13 g−1 s−1). Cel5A displays an activity optimum between 75 and 80 °C. Residues Glu187 and Glu289 were identified as key catalytic amino
acids by sequence alignment. Interestingly, derived from a non-halophilic bacterium, Cel5A exhibits high residual activities
in molar concentration of NaCl (3 M, 49.3%) and KCl (4 M, 48.6%). In 1 M NaCl, 82% of Cel5A activity is retained after 24
h incubation. Molecular Dynamics studies performed at 0 and 3 M NaCl, correlate the Cel5A stability to the formation of R-COO−···Na+ ···−OOC-R salt bridges within the Cel5A tertiary structure, while activity possibly relates to the number of Na+ ions trapped into the negatively charged active site, involving a competition mechanism between substrate and Na+. Additionally, Cel5A is remarkably resistant in ionic liquids 1-butyl-3-methyllimidazolium chloride (1 M, 54.4%) and 1-allyl-3-methylimidazolium
chloride (1 M, 65.1%) which are promising solvents for cellulose degradation and making Cel5A an attractive candidate for
industrial applications. 相似文献

For the heterologous expression of the msp2 gene from the edible mushroom Marasmius scorodonius in Escherichia coli the cDNA encoding the extracellular Msp2 peroxidase was cloned into the pBAD III expression plasmid. Expression of the protein
with or without signal peptide was investigated in E. coli strains TOP10 and LMG194. Different PCR products were amplified for expression of the native target protein or a protein
with a signal peptide. Omitting the native stop codon and adding six His-residues resulted in a fusion protein amenable to
immune detection and purification by immobilised metal affinity chromatography. In E. coli the recombinant protein was produced in high yield as insoluble inclusion bodies. The influence of different parameters on
MsP2 refolding was investigated. Active enzyme was obtained by glutathione-mediated oxidation in a medium containing urea,
Ca2+, and hemin. 相似文献

A gene encoding a pyranose 2-oxidase (POx; pyranose/oxygen 2-oxidoreductase; glucose 2-oxidase; EC 1.1.3.10) was identified
in the genome of the ascomycete Aspergillus nidulans. Attempts to isolate POx directly from A. nidulans cultures or to homologously overexpress the native POx (under control of the constitutive gpdA promoter) in A. nidulans were unsuccessful. cDNA encoding POx was synthesized from mRNA and expressed in Escherichia coli, and the enzyme was subsequently purified and characterized. A putative pyranose 2-oxidase-encoding gene was also identified
in the genome of Aspergillus oryzae. The coding sequence was synthetically produced and was also expressed in E. coli. Both purified enzymes were shown to be flavoproteins consisting of subunits of 65 kDa. The A. nidulans enzyme was biochemically similar to POx reported in literature. From all substrates, the highest catalytic efficiency was
found with D-glucose. In addition, the enzyme catalyzes the two-electron reduction of 1,4-benzoquinone, several substituted
benzoquinones and 2,6-dichloroindophenol. As judged by the catalytic efficiencies (k
cat/k
m), some of these quinone electron acceptors are better substrates for pyranose oxidase than oxygen. The enzyme from A. oryzae was physically similar but showed lower kinetic constants compared to the enzyme from A. nidulans. Distinct differences in the stability of the two enzymes may be attributed to a deletion and an insertion in the sequence,
respectively. 相似文献

Objectives
To evaluate the secretory and cytoplasmic expression of a thermostable Thermogata maritima invertase in Lactococcus lactis.Results
The thermostable invertase from T. maritima was cloned with and without the USP45 secretory peptide into the pNZ8148 vector for nisin-inducible expression in L. lactis. The introduction of an USP45 secretion peptide at the N-terminal of the enzyme led to a loss of protein solubility. Computational homology modeling and hydrophobicity studies indicated that the USP45 peptide exposes a stretch of hydrophobic amino acids on the protein surface resulting in lower solubility. Removal of the USP45 secretion peptide allowed a soluble and functional invertase to be expressed intracellularly in L. lactis. Immobilized metal affinity chromatography purification of the cell lysate with nickel-NTA gave a single protein band on SDS-PAGE, while E. coli-expressed invertase consistently co-purified with an additional band. The yields of the purified invertase from E. coli and L. lactis were 14.1 and 6.3 mg/l respectively.Conclusions
Invertase can be expressed in L. lactis and purified in a functional form. L. lactis is a suitable host for the production of food-grade invertase for use in the food and biotechnology industries.8.
The sequence of an endo-chitosanase gene (CSN) from Aspergillus fumigatus was optimized based on the preferred codons of Pichia pastoris and synthesized in vitro through overlapping PCR (CSN-P). The gene was cloned into a yeast expression vector, pHBM905A, and secretorily expressed in Pichia pastoris GS115. The yield of CSN-P reached ~3 mg/ml with a high-density fermentation in a 14 l fermenter and the enzyme activity was
~25,000 U/ml. The enzyme had half-lives of 2.5 h at 80°C, 1 h at 90°C and 32 min at 100°C. It retained 70% activity after
incubation with 10 M urea at room temperature for 30 min. This enzyme was used for a large-scale preparation of oligosaccharides:
3 g enzyme converted 200 kg chitosan into oligosaccharides in 24 h at 60°C. 相似文献

The processive endoglucanase Cel9A of the moderately thermophilic actinomycete Thermobifida fusca was functionally produced in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Recombinant Cel9A displayed activity on both soluble (carboxymethylcellulose) and insoluble (Avicel) cellulose substrates
confirming its processive endoglucanase activity. High-performance anionic exchange chromatography analyses of soluble sugars
released from Avicel revealed a cellobiose/glucose ratio of 2.5 ± 0.1. Growth by the recombinant strain on amorphous cellulose
was possible due to the sufficient amount of glucose cleaved from the cellulose chain. This is the first confirmed report
of S. cerevisiae growing on a cellulosic substrate as sole carbohydrate source while only expressing one recombinant gene. To improve the
cellulolytic capability of S. cerevisiae and to investigate the level of synergy among cellulases produced by a recombinant host, the cel9A gene was co-expressed with four cellulase-coding genes of Trichoderma reesei: two endoglucanases cel5A (egII) and cel7B (egI), and two cellobiohydrolases cel6A (cbhII) and cel7A (cbhI). Synergy, especially between the Cel9A and the two cellobiohydrolases, resulted in a higher cellulolytic capability of the
recombinant host. 相似文献

6) a soluble monoheme electron transport protein, was isolated and characterized from the chlorophyll d-containing cyanobacterium Acaryochoris marina, the type strain MBIC11017. The protein was purified using ammonium sulfate precipitation, ion exchange and gel filtration
column chromatography, and fast performance liquid chromatography. Its molecular mass and pI have been determined to be 8.87 kDa
and less than 4.2, respectively, by mass spectrometry and isoelectrofocusing (IEF). The protein has an alpha helical structure
as indicated by CD (circular dichroism) spectroscopy and a reduction midpoint potential (E
m) of +327 mV versus the normal hydrogen electrode (NHE) as determined by redox potentiometry. Its potential role in electron

As an important class of proteases, serine proteases are required to show high activity under diverse conditions, especially at high temperatures. In the current study, two serine proteases SP348 and SP404 were analyzed by different bioinformatics tools. Both proteins are comprised of a trypsin domain and a PDZ domain, and belong to the trypsin family of proteases. The proteins were successfully expressed with Trx-tags as soluble proteins in the specialized Escherichia coli Rosetta-gami B(DE3)pLysS strain. A simple three-step purification protocol involving heat treatment, Ni–NTA purification and gel filtration was adopted to purify SP404. The molecular weight of recombinant SP404 was about 64 kDa. According to the circular dichroism spectroscopy analysis, SP404 is thermostable at 70 °C with alpha-helix, beta-sheet and random coil contents of about 8, 22 and 70 %, respectively. Our findings may broaden the range of microorganism-derived proteases and have a wide potential for industrial and fundamental studies. 相似文献

An esterase PE10 (279 aa) from Pelagibacterium halotolerans B2T was cloned and overexpressed in Escherichia coli Rosetta in a soluble form. The deduced protein was 29.91 kDa and the phylogenetic analysis of the deduced amino acids sequence
showed it represented a new family of lipolytic enzymes. The recombinant protein was purified by Ni–NTA affinity chromatography
column and the characterization showed its optimal temperature and pH were 45 °C and pH 7.5, respectively. Substrate specificity
study showed PE10 preferred short chain p-nitrophenyl esters and exhibited maximum activity toward p-nitrophenyl acetate. In addition, PE10 was a halotolerant esterase as it was still active under 4 M NaCl. Three-dimensional
modeling of PE10 suggested that the high negative electrostatic potential on the surface may relevant to its tolerance to
high salt environment. With this halotolerance property, PE10 could be a candidate for industrial use. 相似文献

Two repeated DNA sequences isolated from a partial genomic DNA library of Helianthus annuus, p HaS13 and p HaS211, were shown to represent portions of the int gene of a Ty3 /gypsy retroelement and of the RNase-Hgene of a Ty1 /copia retroelement, respectively. Southern blotting patterns obtained by hybridizing the two probes to BglII- or DraI-digested genomic DNA from different Helianthus species showed p HaS13 and p HaS211 were parts of dispersed repeats at least 8 and 7 kb in length, respectively, that were conserved in all species studied. Comparable hybridization patterns were obtained in all species with p HaS13. By contrast, the patterns obtained by hybridizing p HaS211 clearly differentiated annual species from perennials. The frequencies of p HaS13- and p HaS211-related sequences in different species were 4.3x10(4)-1.3x10(5) copies and 9.9x10(2)-8.1x10(3) copies per picogram of DNA, respectively. The frequency of p HaS13-related sequences varied widely within annual species, while no significant difference was observed among perennial species. Conversely, the frequency variation of p HaS211-related sequences was as large within annual species as within perennials. Sequences of both families were found to be dispersed along the length of all chromosomes in all species studied. However, Ty3 /gypsy-like sequences were localized preferentially at the centromeric regions, whereas Ty1/ copia-like sequences were less represented or absent around the centromeres and plentiful at the chromosome ends. These findings suggest that the two sequence families played a role in Helianthusgenome evolution and species divergence, evolved independently in the same genomic backgrounds and in annual or perennial species, and acquired different possible functions in the host genomes. 相似文献

Panax ginseng Meyer is one of the important medicinal plants in the world, particularly in Asian countries. Ginseng encounters many stress exposure during its long cultivation period. However, the molecular mechanism of stress resistance is still poorly understood in spite of its importance. In this study, pathogenesis-related protein 6 (PR6), also called proteinase inhibitor (PI), was isolated from ginseng embryogenic callus, named PgPR6. The small size of PR6, containing an open reading frame of 219 bp encoding 72 amino acids, the typical characteristic of PR6 protein, shares the highest sequence similarity to PR6 of Theobroma cacao (69% identity). Sequence and structural analysis indicated that PgPR6 belongs to class Kunitz-type PI family. This is the first report pertaining to the identification of PR6 gene from the P. ginseng genome. The high-level expression of PgPR6 was observed in root as revealed by quantitative real-time PCR. The temporal expression analysis demonstrated that PgPR6 expression was highly up-regulated by signaling molecules, heavy metals, mechanical wounding, chilling, salt, sucrose, and mannitol stress, indicating that PgPR6 may play an important role in the molecular defense response of ginseng to a various range of environmental stresses. 相似文献

Jerusalem artichoke (Helianthus tuberosus L.) cultivars are conserved in genebanks for use in breeding and horticultural research programs. Jerusalem artichoke collections are particularly vulnerable to environmental and biological threats because they are often maintained in the field. These field collections could be securely conserved in genebanks if improved cryopreservation methods were available. This work used four Jersualem artichoke cultivars (‘Shudi’, ‘M6’, ‘Stampede’, and ‘Relikt’) to improve upon an existing procedure. Four steps were optimized and the resulting procedure is as follows: preculture excised shoot tips (2–3 mm) in liquid MS medium supplemented with 0.4 M sucrose for 3 days, osmoprotect shoot tips in loading solution for 30 min, dehydrate with plant vitrification solution 2 for 15 min before rapid cooling in liquid nitrogen, store in liquid nitrogen, rapidly rewarm in MS liquid medium containing 1.2 M sucrose, and recover on MS medium supplemented with 0.1 mg L?1 GA3 for 3–5 days in the dark and then on the same medium for 4–6 weeks in the light (14 h light/10 h dark). After cryopreservation, Jerusalem artichoke cultivar ‘Shudi’ had the highest survival (93%) and regrowth (83%) percentages. Cultivars ‘M6’, ‘Stampede’, and ‘Relikt’ achieved survival and regrowth percentages ranging from 44 to 72%, and 37–53%, respectively. No genetic changes, as assessed by using simple sequence repeat markers, were detected in plants regenerated after LN exposure in Jerusalem artichoke cultivar ‘Shudi’. Differential scanning calorimetry analyses were used to investigate the thermal activities of the tissues during the cryopreservation process and it was determined that loading with 2.0 M sucrose and 0.4 M sucrose dehydrated the shoot tips prior to treatment with PVS2. Histological observations revealed that the optimized droplet vitrification protocol caused minimal cellular damage within the meristem cells of the shoot tips. 相似文献

The glycine-methylation biosynthetic pathway of glycinebetaine (GB) has been investigated, but only a few studies on GB accumulation
in transgenic higher plants have utilized this pathway. In this study, two methyltransferase genes named ApGSMT2 and ApDMT2, encoding proteins catalyzing GB biosynthesis from glycine, were cloned from a relative strain of Aphanothece halophytica. The potential roles of ApGSMT2 and ApDMT2 in GB synthesis were first examined in transgenic Escherichia coli, which had increased levels of GB and improved salt tolerance. Then ApGSMT2 and ApDMT2 were transferred into tobacco. Compared with transgenic tobacco expressing betA, transgenic tobacco co-expressing ApGSMT2 and ApDMT2 accumulated more GB and exhibited enhanced drought resistance with better germination performance, higher relative water
content, less cell membrane damage and better photosynthetic capacity under drought stress. We concluded that the ApGSMT2 and ApDMT2 genes cloned in this study will be very useful for engineering GB-accumulating transgenic plants with enhanced drought resistance. 相似文献
