Chitinase,β-1,3-glucanase, cellulase, xylanase and protease activity were detected in a crude enzyme preparation obtained from a slime mold (Badhamia utricularis) which was grown on autoclaved mycelia ofPholiota nameko in a petri dish. The optimal pH of the enzyme preparation for lytic activity against fruit bodies ofLentinus edodes was 4.0, and those ofβ-1,3-glucanase and cellulase were the same. On the other hand, chitinase and protease showed optimal activity at pH 5.0 and 8.0, respectively. The lytic activity was stable below 40°C but completely inactivated at 70°C, and was most stable at pH 5.0. The studies of the optimal pH, thermal stability, and pH stability, and isoelectric focusing analysis of the enzyme preparation suggest that chitinase,β-1,3-glucanase and cellulase activities may be responsible for lysis of fruit bodies of some mushrooms. The crude enzyme preparation from the slime mold lysed fruit bodies of several mushrooms more efficiently than did commercial lytic enzymes preparations (Driselase and Usukizyme).  相似文献

A potent fibrinolytic enzyme-producing bacterium was isolated from the traditional Korean condiment Chungkook-jang and identified as Bacillus vallismortis Ace02. The extracellular fibrinolytic enzyme was purified with a 18% recovery of activity from supernatant cultures using CM-Sepharose column chromatography and Sephacryl S-200 gel filtration. The specific activity of the purified enzyme was 757 kFU mg−1. Its molecular mass was about 28 kDa and the initial amino acids of the N-terminal sequence were AQSVPYGVSQ. The full amino acid sequence of fibrinolytic enzyme Ace02 corresponded with bacteriolytic enzyme, L27, from Bacillus licheniformis, which has strong lytic activity against Streptococcus mutans, a major causative strain of dental caries. This suggests that the purified enzyme should be used for prevention of dental caries as well as being an effective thrombolytic agent.  相似文献

Alkaline phosphatase, an enzyme secreted byBacillus intermedius S3-19 cells to the medium, was also detected in the cell wall, membrane, and cytoplasm. The relative content of alkaline phosphatase in these cell compartments depended on the culture age and cultivation medium. The vegetative growth ofB. intermedius on 0.3% lactate was characterized by increased activity of extracellular and membrane-bound phosphatases. The increase in lactate concentration to 3% did not affect the activity of membrane-bound phosphatase but led to a decrease in the activity of the extracellular enzyme. Na2HPO4 at a concentration of 0.01 % diminished the activity of membrane-bound and extracellular phosphatases. CoCl2 at a concentration of 0.1 mM released membrane-bound phosphatase into the medium. By the onset of sporulation, phosphatase was predominantly localized in the medium and in the cell wall. As is evident from zymograms, the multiple molecular forms of phosphatase varied depending on its cellular localization and growth phase.  相似文献

The demethoxycarbonyl reaction of pheophorbide a in plants and algae was investigated. Two types of enzyme that catalyze alternative reactions in the formation of pyropheophorbide a were found. One enzyme, designated `pheophorbidase (Phedase)', was purified nearly to homogeneity from cotyledons of radish (Raphanus sativus). This enzyme catalyzes the conversion of pheophorbide a to a precursor of pyropheophorbide a, C-132-carboxylpyropheophorbide a, by demethylation, and then the precursor is decarboxylated non-enzymatically to yield pyropheophorbide a. The activity of Phedase was inhibited by the reaction product, methanol. The other enzyme, termed `pheophorbide demethoxycarbonylase (PDC)', was highly purified from the Chl b-less mutant NL-105 of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii. This enzyme had produced no intermediate as shown in the Phedase reaction, indicating that it converts pheophorbide a directly into pyropheophorbide a, probably by nucleophilic reaction. Phedase and PDC consisted of both senescence-induced and constitutive enzymes. The molecular weight of both Phedases was 113 000 and of senescence-induced PDC was 170 000. The K m values against pheophorbide a for both Phedases were 14–15 μM and 283 μM for senescence-induced PDC. The activity of both Phedases was inhibited by the reaction product, methanol, whereas methanol had no specific effect on senescence-induced PDC. Phenylmethylsulfonic fluoride and N-ethylmaleimide inhibited the senescence-induced Phedase and PDC, respectively. Among the 23 species from 15 different families tested, Phedase activity was found in 10 species from three families. PDC activity was not detected in plants lacking Phedase activity, except for Chlamydomonas. Based on these findings, a likely conclusion is that at least two alternative pathways that are catalyzed by two different enzymes, Phedase and PDC, exist for the formation of pyropheophorbide a. This revised version was published online in June 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.  相似文献

Summary Tzs and ipt are two Ti plasmid genes coding for proteins with isopentenyltransferase (IPT) activity in vitro. We cloned both genes for protein expression in Escherichia coli and in Agrobacterium tumefaciens, and we investigated differences between the two genes by analysing the properties of the proteins in vitro and in vivo. In vitro, extracts with tzs or ipt-coded proteins had high IPT activity, and the enzymes were identical in most properties. The most important difference was detected in vivo: the tzs-encoded protein was very active in cytokinin production, while the ipt protein required overexpression in order to obtain measurable activity in bacteria. In both cases, rans-zeatin was the major product of the gene activity. Formation of this cytokinin requires a hydroxylase function in addition to the IPT reaction. No such activity could be ascribed to tzs or ipt-encoded proteins in vitro or in vivo, but cytokinin hydroxylase activity was detected in cells and extracts of E. coli, regardless of the presence or absence of the cytokinin genes. Based on these results it is proposed that both genes code for a single enzyme activity (isopentenyltransferase), that the genes and proteins are adapted for function either in bacteria (tzs) or in transformed plant cells (ipt), and that in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells hydroxylation to trans-zeatin is a function contributed by host enzymes.Abbreviations DMAPP dimethylallylpyrophosphate - iP isopentenyladenine - iPA isopentenyladenosine - iPMP isopentenyladenosine 5-monophosphate - IPT isopentenyltransferase - trans-Z trans-zeatin  相似文献

The extracellular zinc-metalloprotease of Vibrio anguillarum is a secreted virulence factor. It is synthesized from the empA gene as a 611-residue preproprotease and processed to the active mature protease (EmpA) with concomitant secretion via the type II secretion pathway. Active EmpA has been found only in the V. anguillarum culture supernatant and the process of the activation seems to vary depending on strains analyzed. To better understand the mechanism of EmpA export and processing, the empA gene was cloned and expressed in Escherichia coli strains. Expression of empA did not have toxic effect on bacterial growth. Rupturing E. coli TOP10 cells by heating in gel-loading buffer resulted in activation of EmpA and severe proteolysis of the samples. In contrast, the same treatment of the E. coli MC4100A strain did not lead to the general proteolysis. In this strain, EmpA was exported into the periplasm via the Sec pathway. The periplasmic EmpA was detected in two active conformations. Therefore, in E. coli processing of EmpA precursor to an active enzyme did not require secretion to the media and the help of other V. anguillarum protein. Like in V. anguillarum, heterologous expression of empA in E. coli showed strain-specific activation process.  相似文献

Previous studies demonstrated the presence in Candida albicans ATCC 26555 of two soluble α1,2-mannosidases: E-I and E-II. In contrast, in the C. albicans CAI-4 mutant only E-I was detected and it could be processed by a membrane-bound proteolytic activity from the ATCC 26555 strain, generating an active 43 kDa polypeptide. Here, α1,2-mannosidase E-I from strain ATCC 26555 was purified by conventional methods of protein isolation and affinity chromatography in Concanavalin A-Sepharose 4B. Analytical electrophoresis of the purified enzyme revealed two polypeptides of 52 and 23 kDa, the former being responsible for enzyme activity as revealed by zymogram analysis. Time course proteolysis with an aspartyl protease from Aspergillus saitoi, converted α1,2-mannosidase E-I into an active polypeptide of 43 kDa which trimmed Man9GlcNAc2, generating Man8GlcNAc2 isomer B and mannose. Trimming was inhibited preferentially by 1-deoxymannojirimycin. Both, the molecular mass and the enzyme properties of the proteolytic product were identical to those described for α1,2-mannosidase E-II therefore supporting the notion that E-I is the precursor of E-II.  相似文献

An extracellular glucoamylase produced by Paecilomyces variotii was purified using DEAE-cellulose ion exchange chromatography and Sephadex G-100 gel filtration. The purified protein migrated as a single band in 7% PAGE and 8% SDS-PAGE. The estimated molecular mass was 86.5 kDa (SDS-PAGE). Optima of temperature and pH were 55 °C and 5.0, respectively. In the absence of substrate the purified glucoamylase was stable for 1 h at 50 and 55 °C, with a t 50 of 45 min at 60 °C. The substrate contributed to protect the enzyme against thermal denaturation. The enzyme was mainly activated by manganese metal ions. The glucoamylase produced by P. variotii preferentially hydrolyzed amylopectin, glycogen and starch, and to a lesser extent malto-oligossacarides and amylose. Sucrose, p-nitrophenyl α-d-maltoside, methyl-α-d-glucopyranoside, pullulan, α- and β-cyclodextrin, and trehalose were not hydrolyzed. After 24 h, the products of starch hydrolysis, analyzed by thin layer chromatography, showed only glucose. The circular dichroism spectrum showed a protein rich in α-helix. The sequence of amino acids of the purified enzyme VVTDSFR appears similar to glucoamylases purified from Talaromyces emersonii and with the precursor of the glucoamylase from Aspergillus oryzae. These results suggested the character of the enzyme studied as a glucoamylase (1,4-α-d-glucan glucohydrolase).  相似文献

The lateral leaflets of Desmodium motorium exhibit rhythmic upward and downward movements with a period in the minute range. Apoplasmic K+ and H+ activities were monitored in situ in the abaxial part of the pulvini with ion-selective microelectrodes. An extracellular electric potential was recorded simultaneously. The apoplasmic H+ activity of all pulvini exhibiting a regular rhythm of the extracellular electric potential oscillated with the same period between about 10 and 20 mM. The apoplasmic K+ activity was high when the membrane potential of the motor cells was depolarized (about 36 mV) and the cells were shrunken. In contrast, the apoplasmic K+ activity was low in the swollen state of the motor cells, when the membrane potential was hyperpolarized (about -136 mV). The volatile anesthetic enflurane suppressed reversibly the movement of the leaflets. The same treatment also arrested spontaneous oscillations in the apoplasmic K+ activity in the pulvinus. The apoplasmic K+ activity oscillated roughly in phase with the K+ activity between pH 6.6 and 6.0. Application of white light disturbed the rhythm and increased the extracellular pH. Our results indicate that the physiological mechanism that drives the lateral leaflet movements of Desmodium motorium is closely related to the osmotic motors mediating the leaf movements of Mimosa, Samanea and Phaseolus.Abbreviations Em membrane potential - Eex extracellular electric potential - Hex extracellular H+ activity - Kex extracellular K+ activity - Rex extracellular electrical resistance B.

Aspergillus niger hyphae were found to grow with unliquefied potato starch under aerobic conditions, but did not grow under anaerobic conditions. The raw culture ofA. niger catalyzed saccharification of potato starch to glucose, producing approximately 12 g glucose/L/day/ The extracellular enzyme activity was decreased in proportion to incubation time, and approximately 64% of initial activity was maintained after 3 days. At 50°C,A. niger hyphae growth stopped, while the extracellular enzyme activity peaked. On the basis of theA. niger growth property and enzyme activity, we designed a serial bioreactor system composed of four different reactors. Fungal hyphae were cultivated in reactor I at 30°C, uniquefied starch was saccharified to glycose by a fungal hyphae culture in reactors II and III at 50°C, and glucose was fermented to ethanol bySaccharomyces cerevisiae in reactor IV. The total glucose produced by fungal hyphae in reactor I and saccharification in reactor II was about 42 g/L/day. Ethanol production in reactor IV was approximately 22 g/L/day, which corresponds to about 79% of the theoretical maximum produced from 55 g starch/L/day.  相似文献

Tryptophan decarboxylase (EC 4.2.1.27) is synthesized de-novo by Catharanthus roseus cells shortly after the cells have been transferred into culture medium in which monoterpenoid indole alkaloids are formed. The enzyme production, monitored by in-vivo labelling with [35S]methionine and immunoprecipitation, precedes the apparent maximal enzyme activity by 10–12 h. From the time course of the descending enzyme activity after induction, a half-life of 21 h for tryptophan decarboxylase in C. roseus cell suspensions is calculated. A comparison of the polyadenylated-RNA preparations from C. roseus cells indicates that mRNA activity for tryptophan decarboxylase is only detected in cells grown in the production medium. The importance of tryptophan decarboxylase induction with respect to the accumulation of th corresponding alkaloids is discussed.Abbreviation TDC tryptophan decarboxylase  相似文献

Summary The activity of 3-dehydroshikimate dehydratase was detected in an extract prepared from cells of mung bean (Vigna mungo) that had been cultured in the presence of shikimate while such activity was not detectable in an extract prepared from cells cultured without shikimate. The enzyme was partially purified and characterized. The maximum activity of the enzyme was observed at pH 7.4. The activity was inhibited to a small extent by EDTA and sulfhydryl inhibitors. The partially purified enzyme was sensitive to thermal denaturation but was stabilized by Mg2+ ions. These results suggest that 3-dehydroshikimate dehydratase might be induced in mung bean cultured cells in the presence of shikimic acid.Abbreviations 2,4-D 2,4-Dichlorophenoxyacetic acid - DHS 3-dehydroshikimic acid - PCA protocatechuic acid - QA quinic acid - SA shikimic acid - SORase shikimate - NAEP oxidoreductase  相似文献

Previously it was shown that transient chloramphenicol acetyltransferase (CAT) marker gene expression in Arabidopsis thaliana and Nicotiana tabacum resulted in significant differences in the accumulation of the CAT reaction products in radioactive CAT assays. Compared to Nicotiana tabacum, conversion of chloramphenicol to the acetylated products in Arabidopsis thaliana extracts was rather low. Here we report that the low CAT enzyme activity can be attributed in part to a heat sensitive CAT inhibitory effect in extracts of Arabidopsis thaliana. CAT enzyme activity in transgenic tobacco is inhibited by extracts from Arabidopsis. This inhibitory effect diminishes when Arabidopsis extracts were heat incubated. CAT activity in transgenic Arabidopsis lines was very low and was only detected in heat incubated extracts. Alternatively, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISAs) can be used to detect the CAT protein in transgenic Arabidopsis.Abbreviations CAT chloramphenicol acetyltransferase - CAM chloramphenicol - ELISA enzyme linked immunosorbent assay  相似文献

β-1,3-Glucanase activity was detected in extracts of different tissues of healthy mature petunia flowers except the filament. The stigma was studied further as it had the highest enzyme activity and there is a paucity of information on the occurrence of this enzyme in this tissue. Specific activity of the enzyme was found to increase within the stigmatic tissue from early development until just before anthesis. Following non-denaturing polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis at pH 8.8, extracts of dehiscent stigma seem to contain three acidic isoforms of β-1,3-glucanase. Crude extracts of stigma was passed through a pachyman affinity column. A fraction of affinity-purified active β-1,3-glucanase enzyme was found to have no antifungal activity against Trichoderma viride, Phloma clematidina and Cladosporium fulvum.  相似文献

A novel fibrinolytic enzyme from Cordyceps militaris was purified and partially characterized for the first time, which was designated C. militaris fibrinolytic enzyme (CMase). This extracellular enzyme from C. militaris was isolated by ammonium sulphate fraction, and purified to electrophoretic homogeneity using gel filtration chromatography. The apparent molecular mass of the purified enzyme was estimated to be 27.3 kDa by SDS-PAGE. The optimum pH and temperature for the enzyme activity were pH 6.0 and 25 °C, respectively. In the presence of metal ions such as Mg2+ and Fe2+ ions the activity of the enzyme increased, whereas EDTA and Cu2+ ion inhibited the enzyme activity. Interestingly the N-terminal amino acid sequences of the enzyme is extremely similar to those of the trypsin proteinases from insects, and has no significant homology with those of the fibrinolytic enzyme from other medicinal mushroom. In conclusion, C. militaris produces a strong fibrinolytic enzyme CMase and may be considered as a new source for thrombolytic agents.  相似文献

The activities of proteinases in the culture fluid and cellular fractions ofBacillus intermedius 3–19 grown under various conditions were studied. Thiol-dependent serine proteinase was the prevalent enzyme in the total pool of extracellular proteinases (70%); its catalytically active form was also detected in the cell membrane and, during active enzyme production, in the cell wall. Another enzyme, glutamyl endopeptidase (10% of the total pool), was detected in the cell membrane; it was also found in the cell wall and cytoplasm during active enzyme secretion into the growth medium. The production of these enzymes was maximal on medium containing inorganic phosphate and gelatin and decreased 2-to 4-fold on medium with glucose and lactate. The level of activity of extracellular enzymes correlated with that of corresponding membrane-bound proteins. The addition of C0Cl2 (2 mM) into the medium caused an essential increase in extracellular glutamyl endopeptidase activity and promoted the release of the membrane-bound enzyme into the culture fluid. Proteolytic activity towards casein was also detected in the cytoplasm. The proteinases localized in the cytoplasm were shown to differ in their properties from those secreted.  相似文献
