The cells of Escherichia intermedia A-21, known as a producer of tyrosine phenol lyase, are shown to produce D-serine dehydratase, L-serine dehydratase, and alanine racemase. Since the specific activities of the latter by far exceed that of tyrosine phenol lyase, minor concentrations of these independent enzymes in purified preparations of tyrosine phenol lyase may cause the observed levels of side activities with respect to serine and alanine. In the light of the results obtained, the assumption of the polysubstrate nature of tyrosine phenol lyase seems insufficiently substantiated. 相似文献

The decomposition of l-tyrosine and its α-deuterated analogue under the action of extracts from Escherichia intermedia A-21 with high tyrosine phenol-lyase [l-tyrosine phenol-lyase (deaminating), EC 4.1.99.2] activity has been studied. The mass spectrometric data for samples of phenol produced by decomposition of deutero-l-tyrosine in water and D2O-water (10:1) mixture, and by decomposition of normal l-tyrosine in D2O-water (10:1), show that the process is accompanied by the intramolecular transfer of D or H to the leaving phenol group. The degree of transfer is 7–10%. Thus, the abstraction of α-proton and the subsequent protonation of the aromatic ring are accomplished by the same functional group of the enzyme. This is indicative of the cis-orientation of α-proton and the phenol fragment in relation to the plane of Schiff's base of α-aminoacrylate with pyridoxal phosphate during α,β-elimination. The isotope effect of the studied enzymic reaction is ≈3, which allows us to consider the α-proton abstraction as the limiting stage of the process. 相似文献

In the presence of a partially purified preparation of tyrosine phenol lyase, tyrosine is formed in solutions containing glycine, formaldehyde and phenol. The enzyme preparation also catalysed the splitting of allothreonine to glycine and acetaldehyde. An enzyme which is different from tyrosine phenol lyase was shown to be responsible for this aldolase reaction. When an enzyme preparation with a higher specific activity of tyrosine phenol lyase, but without aldolase activity, was used the formation of tyrosine from glycine, formaldehyde and phenol was not observed. It is assumed that the first stage of the process is the formation of serine from glycine and formaldehyde catalysed by the enzyme responsible for the aldolase reaction. Serine in its turn is converted to tyrosine by tyrosine phenol lyase. 相似文献

ObjectiveTo solve the bottleneck of plasmid instability during microbial fermentation of l-DOPA with recombinant Escherichia coli expressing heterologous tyrosine phenol lyase. ResultsThe tyrosine phenol lyase from Fusobacterium nucleatum was constitutively expressed in E. coli and a fed-batch fermentation process with temperature down-shift cultivation was performed. Efficient strategies including replacing the original ampicillin resistance gene, as well as inserting cer site that is active for resolving plasmid multimers were applied. As a result, the plasmid stability was increased. The co-use of cer site on plasmid and kanamycin in culture medium resulted in proportion of plasmid containing cells maintained at 100% after fermentation for 35 h. The specific activity of tyrosine phenol lyase reached 1493 U/g dcw, while the volumetric activity increased from 2943 to 14,408 U/L for l-DOPA biosynthesis. ConclusionsThe established strategies for plasmid stability is not only promoted the applicability of the recombinant cells for l-DOPA production, but also provides important guidance for industrial fermentation with improved microbial productivity. 相似文献

The extractable activity of l-phenylalanine ammonia-lyase (EC 4.3.1.5) and the concentration of sugar esters of p-coumaric and ferulic acids in the hypocotyls of etiolated gherkin seedlings increase upon irradiation with white light. Treatment of intact seedlings with the phenylalanine ammonia-lyase inhibitors α-aminooxyacetic acid and l-α-aminooxy-β-phenylpropionic acid during illumination causes enhanced formation of the lyase and reduces the accumulation of hydroxycinnamic acids. Enzyme activity in excised hypocotyl segments floating on buffer increases in the dark as well as in the light, while hydroxycinnamic acids accumulate only in the light. Phenylalanine ammonia-lyase formation in the segments is inhibited by cinnamic acid and, to a lesser extent, p-coumaric acid, while it is slightly enhanced by caffeic acid and is not affected by ferulic acid.Aminooxyphenylpropionate dramatically promotes phenylalanine ammonialyase formation in the segments in darkness and light and prevents the accumulation of hydroxycinnamic acids in the light. Aminooxyphenylpropionate does not, however, affect the time course of apparent lyase formation and decay. Cinnamic acid, the product of the lyase reaction, antagonizes the effect of aminooxyphenylpropionate. It is proposed that the reaction product(s) are involved to some extent in the regulation of the pool of actively lyase in the hypocotyl tissue. 相似文献

Tyrosine phenol lyase catalyzes a series of α,β-elimination, β-replacement and racemization reactions. These reactions were studied with intact cells of Erwinia herbicola ATCC 21434 containing tyrosine phenol lyase.Various aromatic amino acids were synthesized from l-serine and phenol, pyrocatechol, resorcinol or pyrogallol by the replacement reaction using the intact cells. l( d)-Tyrosine, 3,4-dihydroxyphenyl- l( d)-alanine ( l( d)-dopa), l( d)-serine, l-cysteine, l-cystine and S-methyl- l-cysteine were degraded to pyruvate and ammonia by the elimination reaction. These amino acids could be used as substrate, together with phenol or pyrocatechol, to synthesize l-tyrosine or l-dopa via the replacement reaction by intact cells. l-Serine and d-serine were the best amino acid substrates for the synthesis of l-tyrosine or l-dopa. l-Tyrosine and l-dopa synthesized from d-serine and phenol or pyrocatechol were confirmed to be entirely l-form after isolation and identification of these products. The isomerization of d-tyrosine to l-tyrosine was also catalyzed by intact cells.Thus, l-tyrosine or l-dopa could be synthesized from dl-serine and phenol or pyrocatechol by intact cells of Erwinia herbicola containing tyrosine phenol lyase. 相似文献

Kinetic parameters for the formation of pyruvate from L-tyrosine catalysed by the cell extract of Escherichia intermedia A-21 differ markedly from the parameters of crystalline tyrosine phenol lyase taken from the literature. The substrate specificity of the enzyme in the cell extract was also found to be different from that in the crystalline state. The cell extracts did not show any activity with respect to D-tyrosine, while the reactions with L-and D-enantiomers of serine were brought about mainly by active sites which differ kinetically from the active site responsible for the main reaction. The ratio of activities with respect to L-tyrosine, L-serine and D-serine varied widely depending on the composition of the medium on which the cells had been grown. The high activity of the preparation with respect to L-tyrosine is not a sufficient condition for successful tyrosine synthesis from dl-serine. High activities towards serine enantiomers are also necessary. 相似文献

Both phenylalanine ammonia lyase and tyrosine ammonia lyase were detected in tobacco ( Nicotiana tabacum L. Wisconsin 38) callus. The enzymes were separated from each other by Sephadex G-200 column chromatography. Increased activity of tyrosine ammonia lyase was observed during culture of tobacco callus under shoot-forming conditions, while activity of phenylalanine ammonia lyase increased during culture under non-organ-forming conditions. Confirmation of these findings was obtained by examining the incorporation of [ 14C]tyrosine and [ 14C]phenylalanine into p-coumarate and trans-cinnamate, respectively. 相似文献

A method for preparation of homogeneous tyrosine phenol lyase (EC 4.199.2) from Citrobacter intermedius has been developed. The cells were cultivated in the media with a view to obtain a cell culture with a high activity of tyrosine phenol lyase. The isoelectric point for the enzyme lies at pH 4.9. Tyrosine phenol lyase is strictly stereospecific: it catalyzes the formation of pyruvate only from L-tyrosine, but not from D-tyrosine. Kinetic studies showed that K+ and NH4+ cations are non-competitive activators of the enzyme (Ka = 3.57 X 10(-3) and 1.34 X 10(-4) M, respectively). 相似文献

The following acrylic acid derivatives have been prepared and microbiologically evaluated as possible inhibitors of the growth of lactobacilli; indoleacrylic acid, β-(2-quinolyl)-, β-(3-quinolyl)-, β-(4-quinolyl) acrylic acids, cinnamic acid, p-hydroxycinnamic acid, p-dimethylaminocinnamic acid, p-diethylaminocinnamic acid, thienylacrylic acid, furylacrylic acid, and α-ethylacrylic acid.The utilization of tryptophan by Leuconostoc mesenteroides P-60 and Lactobacillus arabinosus was inhibited by the isomeric quinolylacrylic acid derivatives as well as by indoleacrylic acid. With this latter compound and the β-(3-quinolyl)acrylic acid, competitive inhibition was shown. p-Hydroxycinnamic acid inhibited the utilization of phenylalanine and tyrosine by all the organisms tested. At similar concentrations neither cinnamic acid nor phenol exerted any inhibitory effect.The effects of all inhibitors could be at least partially reversed by the addition of larger quantities of the corresponding amino acids. 相似文献

Twenty standard amino acids were examined as single nitrogen source on the growth, total fatty acids production, and yield of γ-linolenic acid (GLA) in Mucor circinelloides. Of the amino acids, tyrosine gave the highest biomass and lipid accumulation and thus resulted in a high GLA yield with respective values of 17.8 g/L, 23 % (w/w, dry cell weight, DCW), and 0.81 g/L, which were 36, 25, and 72 % higher than when the fungus was grown with ammonium tartrate. To find out the potential mechanism underlying the increased lipid accumulation of M. circinelloides when grown on tyrosine, the activity of lipogenic enzymes of the fungus during lipid accumulation phase was measured. The enzyme activities of glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase, 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase, and ATP-citrate lyase were up-regulated, while NADP-isocitrate dehydrogenase was down-regulated by tyrosine during the lipid accumulation phase of the fungus which suggested that these enzymes may be involved in the increased lipid biosynthesis by tyrosine in this fungus. 相似文献

We isolated a novel pyridoxal-5-phosphate-dependent l-cystine lyase from the dandelion Taraxacum brevicorniculatum. Real time qPCR analysis showed that C–S lyase from Taraxacum brevicorniculatum ( TbCSL) mRNA is expressed in all plant tissues, although at relatively low levels in the latex and pedicel. The 1251 bp TbCSL cDNA encodes a protein with a calculated molecular mass of 46,127 kDa. It is homologous to tyrosine and alanine aminotransferases (AlaATs) as well as to an Arabidopsis thaliana carbon–sulfur lyase (C–S lyase) (SUR1), which has a role in glucosinolate metabolism. TbCSL displayed in vitrol-cystine lyase and AlaAT activities of 4 and 19 nkat mg −1 protein, respectively. However, we detected no in vitro tyrosine aminotransferase (TyrAT) activity and RNAi knockdown of the enzyme had no effect on phenotype, showing that TbCSL substrates might be channeled into redundant pathways. TbCSL is in vivo localized in the cytosol and functions as a C–S lyase or an aminotransferase in planta, but the purified enzyme converts at least two substrates specifically, and can thus be utilized for further in vitro applications. 相似文献

Among facultative-anaerobic bacteria utilizing formic acid, a large number of strains having tyrosine phenol lyase were found. The enzyme can catalyze synthesis of tyrosine and 3,4-dihydroxy phenyl alanine (DOPA) from pyruvate, ammonium and, accordingly, phenol and pyrocatechol. These strains were identified as Citrobacter freundii. Cell suspensions of the most active strains synthesized up to 75 g/l tyrosine for 12 hr, up to 86 g/l tyrosine for 24 hr, and up to 29 g/l DOPA for 42 hr. A medium containing yeast autolysate grown on hydrocarbons can be recommended to produce cells having a high tyrosine phenol lyase activity. 相似文献

The ICL1 gene encoding isocitrate lyase was cloned from the dimorphic fungus Yarrowia lipolytica by complementation of a mutation ( acuA3) in the structural gene of isocitrate lyase of Escherichia coli. The open reading frame of ICL1 is 1668 by long and contains no introns in contrast to currently sequenced genes from other filamentous fungi. The ICL1 gene encodes a deduced protein of 555 amino acids with a molecular weight of 62 kDa, which fits the observed size of the purified monomer of isocitrate lyase from Y. lipolytica. Comparison of the protein sequence with those of known pro- and eukaryotic isocitrate lyases revealed a high degree of homology among these enzymes. The isocitrate lyase of Y. lipolytica is more similar to those from Candida tropicalis and filamentous fungi than to Sacharomyces cerevisiae. This enzyme of Y. lipolytica has the putative glyoxysomal targeting signal S-K-L at the carboxy-terminus. It contains a partial repeat which is typical for eukaryotic isocitrate lyases but which is absent from the E. coli enzyme. Surprisingly, deletion of the ICL1 gene from the genome not only inhibits the utilization of acetate, ethanol, and fatty acids, but also reduces the growth rate on glucose. 相似文献

Ammonia lyases catalyse the reversible addition of ammonia to cinnamic acid (1: R=H) and p-hydroxycinnamic (1: R=OH) to generate L-phenylalanine (2: R=H) and L-tyrosine (2: R=OH) respectively (Figure 1a). Both phenylalanine ammonia lyase (PAL) and tyrosine ammonia lyase (TAL) are widely distributed in plants, fungi and prokaryotes. Recently there has been interest in the use of these enzymes for the synthesis of a broader range of L-arylalanines. Aminomutases catalyse a related reaction, namely the interconversion of α-amino acids to β-amino acids (Figure 1b). In the case of L-phenylalanine, this reaction is catalysed by phenylalanine aminomutase (PAM) and proceeds stereospecifically via the intermediate cinnamic acid to generate β-Phe 3. Ammonia lyases and aminomutases are related in sequence and structure and share the same active site cofactor 4-methylideneimidazole-5-one (MIO). There is currently interest in the possibility of using these biocatalysts to prepare a wide range of enantiomerically pure l-configured α-amino and β-amino acids. Recent reviews have focused on the mechanism of these MIO containing enzymes. The aim of this review is to review recent progress in the application of ammonia lyase and aminomutase enzymes to prepare enantiomerically pure α-amino and β-amino acids. 相似文献

Treatment of mature citrus fruit ( Citrus sinensis) with ethylene induced rapid chlorophyll destruction, a rise in respiration, a release of free amino acids, an accumulation of reducing sugars, and an appearance of phenylalanine ammonia lyase activity. Gibberellin A 3 (GA 3) and N6-benzyladenine (BA) opposed the effects of ethylene on chlorophyll, amino acids, and to a lesser extent, reducing sugar levels. The ethylene-induced respiratory rise was only slightly modified by GA 3 and BA. Phenylalanine ammonia lyase activity was not affected by GA 3. 相似文献

The responses of the cotton plant, Gossypium hirsutum L. to herbivory by Spodoptera litura F. was studied in various laboratory experiments as a measure to understand the defense strategies of certain plant metabolites. Insect feeding damage enhanced the concentration of total phenol content and proteins, whereas amount of carbohydrates and amino acids were reduced. The experiments on estimation of anti-oxidative enzymes revealed stimulation in peroxidase, catalase, and superoxide dismutase levels and reduction in polyphenol oxidase and phenylanine ammonia lyase levels, signifying their defensive role in the plant. Specific phenolic acid changes were further carried out using High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC), and distinct elevations in the gallic acid, catechin, and caffeic acid levels were observed in the infested cotton plant. Feeding assays towards S. litura with these phenolic compounds revealed activated detoxifying enzymes including β-glucosidase, carboxyl esterase, and glutathione-S-transferase in the insect gut indicating the toxicity. The aim of present study is to aid in further use of these specific phenolic acids towards effective management of the cotton pest, S. litura. 相似文献

Cytochrome P450c17, a steroidogenic enzyme encoded by the CYP17A1 gene, catalyzes the steroid 17α-hydroxylation needed for glucocorticoid synthesis, which may or may not be followed by 17,20 lyase activity needed for sex steroid synthesis. Whether or not P450c17 catalyzes 17,20 lyase activity is determined by three post-translational mechanisms influencing availability of reducing equivalents donated by P450 oxidoreductase (POR). These are increased amounts of POR, the allosteric action of cytochrome b5 to promote POR-P450c17 interaction, and Ser/Thr phosphorylation of P450c17, which also appears to promote POR-P450c17 interaction. The kinase(s) that phosphorylates P450c17 is unknown. In a series of kinase inhibition experiments, the pyridinyl imidazole drugs SB202190 and SB203580 inhibited 17,20 lyase but not 17α-hydroxylase activity in human adrenocortical HCI-H295A cells, suggesting an action on p38α or p38β. Co-transfection of non-steroidogenic COS-1 cells with P450c17 and p38 expression vectors showed that p38α, but not p38β, conferred 17,20 lyase activity on P450c17. Antiserum to P450c17 co-immunoprecipitated P450c17 and both p38 isoforms; however, knockdown of p38α, but not knockdown of p38β, inhibited 17,20 lyase activity in NCI-H295A cells. Bacterially expressed human P450c17 was phosphorylated by p38α in vitro at a non-canonical site, conferring increased 17,20 lyase activity. This phosphorylation increased the maximum velocity, but not the Michaelis constant, of the 17,20 lyase reaction. p38α phosphorylates P450c17 in a fashion that confers increased 17,20 lyase activity, implying that the production of adrenal androgens (adrenarche) is a regulated event. 相似文献

The effect ofpH on Km and Vmax values of coconut α-galactosidase indicates the involvement of two ionizing groups with p Ka values of 3.5 and 6.5 in catalysis. Chemical modification has indicated the presence of two carboxyl groups, a tryptophan and a tyrosine, at or near the active site of α-galactosidase. Based on these facts a new mechanism of action for α-galactosidase is proposed in which the ionizing group with a p Ka of 3.5 is a carboxyl group involved in stabilizing a carbonium ion intermediate and the ionizing group with a p Ka of 6.5 is a carboxyl group perturbed due to the presence of a hydrophobic residues in its vicinity which donates a H + ion in catalysis. 相似文献

The nature and properties of the phenol oxidase present in the blood cells and plasma of three species of millipedes, Thyropygus poseidon, Polydesmus species, and Spirostreptus asthenus, have been investigated using a number of substrates as well as activators and inhibitors. The enzyme is located in the granular haemocytes. In the in situ condition it oxidizes diphenols, polyphenols, and also tyrosine. But when extracted from the homogenate of blood cells it showed only diphenolase activity. There is evidence of phenol oxidase activity in the plasma, but it did not act on tyrosine. The results obtained have been discussed in the light of previous work. It is suggested that the cell enzyme may have two sites of activity responsible for the oxidation of diphenol and also tyrosine. The observation that the monophenol oxidase activity is absent when the enzyme is extracted and isolated suggests that one of the sites of activity of the enzyme may be destroyed in the process of extraction. 相似文献
