An efficient enzymatic bioprocess is described in which lactose, an abundant renewable resource produced by the dairy industry, is completely and efficiently converted with a specific productivity of up to 32 g (kU h)?1 into lactobionic acid, without the formation of any by-products. The key biocatalyst of this new process is the fungal enzyme cellobiose dehydrogenase which oxidizes several β-1,4-linked disaccharides including lactose specifically at position C-1 of the reducing sugar moiety to the corresponding lactones. The electron acceptor employed in this reaction is continuously regenerated with the help of laccase, a H2O-producing, copper-containing oxidase, and therefore has to be added in low, catalytic amounts only. Redox mediators that were successfully employed in this novel process and hence are compatible with the laccase regeneration system include benzoquinone, ABTS, ferricyanide, or ferrocene, amongst others. Factors affecting operational stability of the biocatalysts employed in this process include the redox mediator used, the temperature, and importantly the volumetric gas flow necessary for maintaining the dissolved oxygen tension. Lactobionic acid is a mild and sweet tasting acid with excellent chelating properties. These useful characteristics have lead to a growing number of patents for diverse applications in the food, pharmaceutical and detergent industries.  相似文献

Oxidoreductases are a group of enzymes that have been regarded uneconomical for industrial processes due to their dependence on cofactors or prosthetic groups for activity and the difficulties of regenerating these. Especially, flavoproteins have long been neglected for biocatalytical applications. The prosthetic group of some of these enzymes, but not all, can be regenerated by oxygen, resulting in hydrogen peroxide formation, which is detrimental to enzyme stability. As a contribution to alleviating this problem, a novel concept for the regeneration of electron acceptors (redox mediators) for flavoenzymes is described. Flavin-containing enzymes such as cellobiose dehydrogenase (CDH) or pyranose oxidase (P2O) are used in conjunction with laccases and a redox mediator. The flavin of the synthetic enzyme is reduced while the oxidized product of interest is formed, in turn, the flavin is reoxidized with the help of an electron acceptor, which then is regenerated using a laccase. Laccases are copper containing phenol oxidases that can transfer four electrons to oxygen, producing two molecules of water. Preliminary screening experiments with different redox mediators, and a coupled enzyme system of CDH and laccase, showed that a wide variety of different substances can efficiently shuttle electrons between these two enzymes. Among them are substituted and unsubstituted ortho- and para-quinones, benzoquinone imines, cation radicals such as 2,2′-azinobis(3-ethylbenzthiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS), redox dyes such as phenothiazines or phenoxazines, as well as iron complexes.

Experiments in which CDH completely oxidizes lactose to lactobionic acid and P2O entirely converts glucose to 2-keto-glucose are presented. Catalytic amounts of redox mediators are used and continuously regenerated by a laccase. Specific productivities of up to 19.3 g·(h·kU)−1 and 72 g·(h·kU)−1 for CDH and P2O, respectively, were found. The total turnover numbers (TTNs) for the two enzymes used were in the range of 105–106. Oxygen supply for the laccase is a crucial factor in avoiding rate limitation. Undeniably, this system facilitates the efficient use of a hitherto underexploited group of enzymes for preparative purposes.  相似文献

Recently, it has been demonstrated that the opportunistic fungal pathogen Cryptococcus neoformans can synthesize authentic immunomodulatory prostaglandins. The mechanism by which this takes place is unclear as there is no cyclooxygenase homologue in the cryptococcal genome. In this study, we show that cryptococcal production of both PGE2 and PGF can be chemically inhibited by caffeic acid, resveratrol and nordihydroguaiaretic acid. These polyphenolic molecules are frequently used as inhibitors of lipoxygenase enzymes; however, blast searches of the cryptococcal genome were unable to identify any homologues of mammalian, plant or fungal lipoxygenases. Next we investigated cryptococcal laccase, an enzyme known to bind polyphenols, and found that either antibody depletion or genetic deletion of the primary cryptococcal laccase ( lac1 Δ) resulted in a loss of cryptococcal prostaglandin production. To determine how laccase is involved, we tested recombinant laccase activity on the prostaglandin precursors, arachidonic acid (AA), PGG2 and PGH2. Using mass spectroscopy we determined that recombinant Lac1 does not modify AA or PGH2, but does have a marked activity toward PGG2 converting it to PGE2 and 15-keto-PGE2. These data demonstrate a critical role for laccase in cryptococcal prostaglandin production, and provides insight into a new and unique fungal prostaglandin pathway.  相似文献

The effect of bubble-free oxygenation on the stability of a bi-enzymatic system with redox mediator regeneration for the conversion of lactose to lactobionic acid was investigated in a miniaturized reactor with bubbleless oxygenation. Earlier investigations of this biocatalytic oxidation have shown that the dispersive addition of oxygen can cause significant enzyme inactivation. In the process studied, the enzyme cellobiose dehydrogenase (CDH) oxidizes lactose at the C-1 position of the reducing sugar moiety to lactobionolactone, which spontaneously hydrolyzes to lactobionic acid. 2,2'-Azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) diammonium salt was used as electron acceptor for CDH and was continuously regenerated (reoxidized) by laccase, a blue multi-copper oxidase. Oxygen served as the terminal electron acceptor of the reaction and was fully reduced to water by laccase. The overall mass transfer coefficient of the miniaturized reactor was determined at 30 and 45 degrees C; conversions were conducted both in the reaction-limited and diffusion-limited regime to study catalyst inactivation. The bubbleless oxygenation was successful in avoiding gas/liquid interface inactivation. It was also shown that the oxidized redox mediator plays a key role in the inactivation mechanism of the biocatalysts unobserved during previous studies.  相似文献

The hard wood-colonizing ascomycete Xylaria polymorpha, that is seemingly lacking peroxidases, produces laccase as sole ligninolytic oxidoreductase. The fungus secreted the enzyme preferably during the growth in complex media based on tomato juice. Addition of 2,5-xylidine considerably stimulated laccase production (up to 14,000 U l−1). The enzyme was purified to homogeneity by anion exchange and size exclusion chromatography and characterized by biochemical and molecular methods. Xylaria laccase has a molecular mass of 67 kDa, a pI of 3.1 and an absorption maximum at 605 nm that is characteristic for blue copper proteins. It oxidized all typical laccase substrates including ABTS, 2,6-dimethoxyphenol, guaiacol as well as syringaldazine (catalytic efficiencies 3 × 103 to 7 × 104 M−1 s−1). The deduced amino acid sequence of one amplified laccase gene sequence between the copper binding regions 1 and 3 showed a high level of identity to some other laccases from ascomycetes. Furthermore, the sequence of an internal peptide fragment of the purified laccase was identical with an amino acid sequence deduced from the nucleotide sequence of the laccase gene. Xylaria laccase was found to oxidize a non-phenolic β-O-4 lignin model compound in presence of 1-hydroxybenzotriazole into the corresponding keto-form. The results of this study show that – in addition to ligninolytic basidiomycetes – also wood-dwelling ascomycetes can produce high titers of laccase that may be involved in the oxidation of lignin.  相似文献

A model has been developed to describe the interaction between two enzymes and an intermediary redox mediator. In this bi-enzymatic process, the enzyme cellobiose dehydrogenase oxidizes lactose at the C-1 position of the reducing sugar moiety to lactobionolactone, which spontaneously hydrolyzes to lactobionic acid. 2,2'-Azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) diammonium salt is used as electron acceptor and is continuously regenerated by laccase. Oxygen is the terminal electron acceptor and is fully reduced to water by laccase, a copper-containing oxidase. Oxygen is added to the system by means of bubble-free oxygenation. Using the model, the productivity of the process is investigated by simultaneous solution of the rate equations for varying enzyme quantities and redox mediator concentrations, solved with the aid of a numerical solution. The isocharts developed in this work provide an easy-to-use graphical tool to determine optimal process conditions. The model allows the optimization of the employed activities of the two enzymes and the redox mediator concentration for a given overall oxygen mass transfer coefficient by using the isocharts. Model predictions are well in agreement with the experimental data.  相似文献

A thermostable laccase was isolated from an unidentified fungal isolate [Enz. Microb. Technol. 33 (2003) 212], and tentatively named UD4. This work indicates that the enzyme has unique properties other than its thermostability. Investigation into the kinetic parameters of the thermostable laccase yielded an unusually high affinity for ABTS as a substrate (low Km) when compared with available published data for other laccase isozymes. The specificity constant (kcat/Km) was found to be considerably higher than laccase from other sources and is comparable to “white” laccase from Pleurotus ostreatus (POXA1). However, POXA1 isozyme exhibits a large turnover number (kcat) that contributes to its high specificity constant whereas the high specificity constant for UD4 laccase is achieved by having a high substrate affinity. The UD4 thermostable laccase, like most other laccases, is able to utilize guaiacol as a substrate, whereas POXA1 is unable to oxidize guaiacol, indicating a broader substrate range for the thermostable laccase from UD4. The thermostable laccase is inhibited by sodium azide through non-competitive inhibition, and by thioglycolic acid and hydroxylamine through competitive inhibition. The high specificity constant, substrate affinity and broader substrate range of the thermostable laccase from UD4 indicates that it is a highly favourable candidate enzyme for industrial application.  相似文献

典型的漆酶通常属于辅助活性酶第一家族第一亚族(auxiliary activity family 1 subfamily 1,简称AA1_1家族),而AA1_2家族的多铜氧化酶通常拥有将二价铁氧化成三价铁的活性,部分AA1_2家族酶蛋白兼具漆酶活性。梯棱羊肚菌全基因组只有一个AA1_2家族酶基因,该基因编码的酶蛋白是否拥有漆酶功能尚未清楚。本研究主要从酶生化特性的角度,结合酶基因的表达规律,对该基因的功能进行初探。对该AA1_2家族基因在梯棱羊肚菌生长发育不同阶段的表达水平进行实时定量PCR检测;将该基因编码序列克隆到表达载体中在大肠杆菌中异源表达,层析获得纯化的酶蛋白,对酶蛋白的生化特性进行了鉴定。发现该AA1_2多铜氧化酶基因在外源营养袋和土壤中的营养菌丝里低表达,在菇原基和子实体中表达较活跃。异源表达获得纯化的酶蛋白分子量约64kDa,表现出亚铁氧化酶(EC 1.16.3.1)与漆酶(EC 1.10.3.2)双重活性。其亚铁氧化酶活性在pH 4最高,漆酶活性在pH 6最高。亚铁氧化酶活性与漆酶活性的最适温度均为30℃左右,在30℃温育16h后仍保留70%以上活性。亚铁氧化酶和漆酶活性受Mn 2+、Hg 2+和Pb 2+抑制。对蛋白质变性剂SDS、尿素的耐受性较强。本研究通过酶学证据证实了梯棱羊肚菌AA1_2家族多铜氧化酶基因编码的酶蛋白具有亚铁氧化酶-漆酶双重活性,系在子囊菌大型真菌中首次发现,为进一步研究铁元素代谢与漆酶活性在羊肚菌子实体形成与发育过程中的作用提供了启示。  相似文献

Abstract: An economic evaluation is presented of lactic acid production in a membrane cell recycle reactor. From this evaluation it is concluded that the economic feasibility of the process is primarily limited by production capacity and product concentration and to a lesser extent by productivity. In membrane cell recycle reactor experiments and batch cultivation experiments with Lactobacillus helreticus , it is shown that the economic feasibility of the process using this organism is limited by organic acid inhibition resulting in energy uncoupling of anabolism and catabolism. Due to this inhibition, the maximum lactic acid concentration that can be obtained in the membrane reactor process is 50 g I1—. Furthermore it is shown that not only the fermentative conversion of lactose into lactic acid but also the hydrolysis of lactose into glucose and galactose is an important process. The β-galaetosidase activity needed for the hydrolysis is generated during the exponential growth phase of Lb. helveticus  相似文献

1. 1. The nature and mechanism of the reduction of fungal laccase (p-diphenol: O2 oxidoreductase, EC 1.10.3.2) obtained on an increase in pH have been studied by optical and electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy and by measurements of O2 concentration.

2. 2. The decreases in the optical absorption and the EPR signal of the “blue” Type 1 Cu2+ at high pH indicate that this ion is reduced. This is confirmed by oxidation with hexachloroiridate(IV) which restores the blue color. The “nonblue” Type 2 Cu2+ remains divalent over the pH range studied, as seen from the EPR spectra.

3. 3. Approximately one equivalent of hexachloroiridate(IV) is sufficient to restore the color of a pH-bleached protein which suggests that the reduction involves a single electron. A comparison between the optical spectra at pH 5 and 8 shows that the two-electron accepting unit, which at pH 5.5 is reduced concomitantly with the Type 1 Cu2+, remains oxidized in the protein brought to high pH. This unit can be reduced at pH 8.3 by octacyanotungstate(IV), as shown by the fact that this reductant in anaerobic titrations is found to add about two electrons (and no more) to a protein already having the Type 1 copper reduced. Thus, an increase in pH introduces a difference in the reduction behavior of the electron acceptors in fungal laccase.

4. 4. Oxygraph experiments show that there is no production of O2 with an increase in pH, as would occur if water was oxidized by laccase. On the contrary, there is a continuous consumption of O2 at both pH 5 and 8, indicating that the protein preparation contains a reducing substance which is responsible for the pH-dependent reduction.

Abstract The complex-forming compound oxalic acid can effectively solubilise metals such as aluminium, iron, lithium, and manganese. In order to produce high amounts of oxalic acid for biohydrometallurgical processes, it was the aim of this work to optimise oxalic acid production by Aspergillus niger , a fungus well known for its ability to produce oxalic acid. A. niger excreted 427 mmol oxalic acid 1−1 if it was cultivated in a pH-controlled (pH 6.0) fed-batch run in a 2-1 stirred tank reactor. Sucrose and lactose permeate were suitable carbon sources for oxalic acid production. In sucrose medium, A. niger produced high amounts of gluconic and oxalic acids, whereas in lactose permeate medium only oxalic acid was produced. Cultivation in green syrup and molasses media lead to high yields of biomass, but low oxalic acid production (<20 mmol 1−1).  相似文献

Residual lignin studies of laccase-delignified kraft pulps   总被引:9,自引:0,他引:9  
The delignification of chemical pulps with laccase and -hydroxybenzotriazole was explored employing a pre- and post-O2 delignified softwood draft pulp. The delignification properties of laccase were shown to be improved with -hydroxybenzotriazole was used as a mediator instead of 2,2′-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzthiazoline-6-sulfonic acid). Analysis of the structure of residual lignin before and after laccase/ -hydroxybenzotriazole treatment indicated that the biobleaching system oxidizes the phenolic component of lignin and that the residual lignin is demethylated and significantly enriched in carboxylic acid groups.  相似文献

The influence of alcohol, 4-acetylamino,2,2,6,6'-tetramethylpiperidinyloxy (4-acetylamino-TEMPO) and laccase (from Trametes versicolor, TvL) concentration in the aerobic oxidation of furfuryl alcohol was investigated. Studies show that the K m for 4-acetylamino-TEMPO is around 6.3 mM (V max=0.18 mM min-1) using 6.6 U mL-1 of laccase and a furfuryl alcohol concentration of 140 mM. Under these optimized conditions, the reaction rate is still dependent on the concentration of enzyme in solution. Laccase can be reused, with a residual activity of around 25%. An important conclusion is that laccase is not stable in the presence of oxoammonium salts, presumably due to degradation via oxidation of essential amino acid residues or the glycosyl moieties on the periphery of the enzyme.  相似文献

Abstract The white-rot fungus Junghuhnia separabilima (Pouz.)Ryv, showed high levels of laccase production in cultures supplemented with veratric acid. Laccase, lignin peroxidase and an unknown peroxidase were separated from the extracellular culture fluid using anion-exchange FPLC. Three laccase species, three lignin peroxidases and a novel heme-containing protein were characterized by gel electrophoresis and isoelectric focusing. The new hemoprotein has a molecular mass of 44 kDa, isoelectric point of 3,4 and pH optimum of 5.5 for oxidation of o -dianisidine in the presence of H2O2. However it oxidised diaminobenzidine and guaiacol in the absence of H2O2. Veratryl alcohol and phenol red were not substratesfor this enzyme with or without addition of H2O2 and Mn(II). In addition the enzyme did not produce H2O2.  相似文献

Aim:  To produce high laccase activities from the white-rot fungus Fomes fomentarius .
Methods and Results:  Different culturing methods, viz, cell immobilization on stainless steel sponges and plastic material and solid-state fermentation (SSF) using wheat bran as substrate were used for laccase production by the white-rot fungus F. fomentarius . The SSF study expresses the highest laccase activities, nearly to 6400 U l−1 after 13 days of laboratory flasks cultivation. When the wheat bran medium was supplemented with 2 mmol l−1 copper sulfate, laccase activity increased by threefold in comparison to control cultures, reaching 27 864 U l−1. With the medium thus optimized, further experiments were performed in a 3 l fixed-bed bioreactor (working volume 1·5 l) leading to a laccase activity of about 6230 U l−1 on day 13.
Conclusions:  The results obtained clearly showed the superiority of wheat bran for laccase production over stainless steel sponges and plastic material. Supplementing the wheat bran solid medium with 2 mmol l−1 copper sulfate allowed obtaining high activities at flask scale. The system was scaled to fixed-bed laboratory reactor.
Significance and Impact of the Study:  The high enzyme production along with the low-cost of the substrate, showed the suitability of the system F. fomentarius – SSF for industrial purposes.  相似文献

基于5mg/kg Cu2+以及1mL/L愈创木酚处理下的栽培料,通过对糙皮侧耳(平菇)菌株CCEF89的生长特性、降解过程、酶活产量以及胞外蛋白质含量的测定与分析,揭示了该菌株在营养生长和子实体形成过程中的生理生化变化。生长特性测定表明,2,2’-连氮基-双-(3-乙基苯并二氢噻唑啉-6-磺酸)二铵盐(ABTS)、愈创木酚、MnCl2使菌丝生长变慢。菌丝在前10d主要对酸不溶木质素和半纤维素进行降解,20d开始利用纤维素和酸溶木质素。5mg/kg Cu2+处理的栽培料会促进菌丝生长,出菇期提前并促进漆酶分泌,而1mL/L愈创木酚的处理则在某种程度上对营养生长和子实体发育有抑制作用。12d后,羧甲基纤维素酶活与木聚糖酶具有极显著正相关性,且羧甲基纤维素酶活与胞外蛋白质含量也存在相关性。  相似文献

The advantages of nanofiltration membranes coupled with a CSTR were demonstrated for the semicontinuous production of lactic acid from whey permeate. Lactic acid was removed from the growth medium while lactose was kept in the bioreactor with the bacterial cells; moreover, Mg2+ ions were also recycled in the bioreactor at 96% and the nanofiltrate color was greatly reduced. The highest volumetric productivity achieved with this device was 7.1 g l−1 h−1 and the lactate concentration was 55 g l−1. The specific productivity was 3.54 h−1. More than 99% of the membrane fouling after 44 h of fermentation was reversible. The initial permeate flux was restored easily by a water rinse. The performance of this type of membrane bioreactor was discussed.  相似文献

为了探明漆酶在斑玉蕈生长发育过程中的功能,对斑玉蕈转录测序预测的13个漆酶基因序列进行分析、鉴定和构建分子系统发育树;检测了不同生长发育时期漆酶的活性和漆酶基因表达水平。研究结果显示:13个基因片段中有10个是漆酶基因。不同的漆酶同工酶之间进化关系存在明显差异,大多数漆酶与木腐菌(金针菇Flammulina filiformis和侧耳属Pleurotus)进化关系较近。对斑玉蕈不同生长发育时期的酶活检测结果显示,从斑玉蕈的菌丝恢复期到钉头期,漆酶活性逐渐升高,而在子实体形成后期酶活逐渐降低。对培养40d、60d和80d的菌丝样品以及不同生长发育时期的样品进RT-qPCR检测,结果显示在菌丝营养生长时期,大多数漆酶基因在第40-60天表达量持续增加1-3倍,而在第60-80天时表达量出现降低的情况。而在生殖生长时期,大多数漆酶基因在转色期或者原基期相对表达量达到最大值,并在子实体期出现降低,这与漆酶活性的检测具有一致性。lcc3lcc7lcc8lcc9在斑玉蕈生殖生长过程中相对表达量出现了10-100倍的上调。这说明从菌丝培养到菌丝扭结形成子实体和子实体发育的过程中,不同的漆酶可能发挥着不同的作用,表达量较高的漆酶基因可能对基质降解和子实体形成起主要作用。  相似文献
