Summary An extracellular naringinase (an enzyme complex consisting of α-L-rhamnosidase and β-D-glucosidase activity, EC 3.2.1.40) that hydrolyses naringin (a trihydroxy flavonoid) for the production of rhamnose and glucose was purified from the culture filtrate of Aspergillus niger 1344. The enzyme was purified 38-fold by ammonium sulphate precipitation, ion exchange and gel filtration chromatography with an overall recovery of 19% with a specific activity of 867 units per mg of protein. The molecular mass of the purified enzyme was estimated to be about 168 kDa by gel filtration chromatography on a Sephadex G-200 column and the molecular mass of the subunits was estimated to be 85 kDa by sodium dodecyl sulphate-Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE). The enzyme had an optimum pH of 4.0 and temperature of 50 °C, respectively. The naringinase was stable at 37 °C for 72 h, whereas at 40 °C the enzyme showed 50% inactivation after 96 h of incubation. Hg2+, SDS, p-chloromercuribenzoate, Cu2+ and Mn2+ completely inhibited the enzyme activity at a concentration of 2.5–10 mM, whereas, Ca2+, Co2+ and Mg2+ showed very little inactivation even at high concentrations (10–100 mM). The enzyme activity was strongly inhibited by rhamnose, the end product of naringin hydrolysis. The enzyme activity was accelerated by Mg2+ and remained stable for one year after storage at −20 °C. The purified enzyme preparation successfully hydrolysed naringin and rutin, but not hesperidin.  相似文献

The fungus Cunninghamella verticillata was selected from isolates of oil-mill waste as a potent lipase producer as determined by the Rhodamine-B plate method. The lipase was purified from C. verticillata by ammonium sulphate fractionation, ion exchange chromatography and gel filtration. The purified enzyme was formed from a monomeric protein with molecular masses of 49 and 42 kDa by SDS–PAGE and gel filtration, respectively. The optimum pH at 40 °C was 7.5 and the optimum temperature at pH 7.5 was 40 °C. The enzyme was stable between a pH range of 7.5 and 9.0 at 30 °C for 24 h. The enzyme activity was strongly inhibited by AgNO3, NiCl2, HgCl2, CdCl2 and EDTA. However, the presence of Ca2+, Mn2+ and Ba2+ ions enhanced the activity of the enzyme. The activity of purified lipase with respect to pH, temperature and salt concentration was optimized using a Box–Behnken design experiment. A polynomial regression model used in analysing this data, showed a significant lack of fitness. Therefore, quadratic terms were incorporated in the regression model through variables. Maximum lipase activity (100%) was observed with 2 mM CaCl2, (pH 7.5) at a temperature of 40 °C. Regression co-efficient correlation was calculated as 0.9956.  相似文献

Glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase (EC 1.2.1.13) was purified 386 fold to apparent homogeneity from the thermophilic cyanobacteriumSynechococcus sp. grown at optimum light intensities in batch cultures. The molecular mass of the tetrameric form of the enzyme was 160 kDa as determined by gel filtration and sucrose gradient centrifugation in a phosphate buffer containing DTT. The pH optimum for the oxidation of NADPH was broad (6–8) and the enzyme had a pI of 4.5. The turnover number was 36,000 min–1 at 40° C. The activation energy was 12.4 Kcal for t>29° C and 20.6 Kcal for t<29° C. The specific absorption coefficient, A 280 mm 1% 1cm of the pure enzyme in phosphate buffer at pH 6.8 was 15.2.By SDS gel electrophoresis molecular masses of 78 kDa and 39 kDa were found, indicating that the purified enzyme is a tetramer, probably a homotetramer.When Tris was used as buffer in the homogenization and phosphate and DTT were omitted, a high molecular form with a molecular mass above 500 kDa was found. This form was less active than the purified tetrameric form. Acetone and other organic solvents stimulated the native enzyme several fold.  相似文献

Trigonelline (TRG), which act as a cell cycle regulator and a compatible solute in response to salinity and water-stress, is the N-methyl conjugate of nicotinic acid the formation of which is catalyzed by S-adenosyl-L-methionine nicotinic acid-N-methyltransferase. The enzyme was purified 2650-fold from soybean (Glycine max L.) leaves with a recovery of 4 %. The purification procedure included ammonium sulfate (45 – 60 %) precipitation, linear gradient DEAE-Sepharose chromatography, adenosine-agarose affinity chromatography, hydroxyapatite chromatography and gel filtration (Sephacryl-S-200). The purified enzyme preparation showed a major band with a molecular mass of 41.5 kDa in sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis that is related to the enzyme activity. The native enzyme had a molecular mass of about 85 kDa as estimated by gel filtration. The Km values for S-adenosyl-L-methionine and nicotinic acid were 31 and 12.5 M, respectively. The purified enzyme showed optimum activity at pH 6.5 and temperature of 40 – 45 °C. High concentration of dithiothreitol (10 mM) and glycerol (20 %) stabilize the enzyme during purification and storage. Hg2+ strongly inhibits enzyme activity.  相似文献

A newly isolated Bacillus species, which grew optimally at 30°C and pH 10, produced a carboxymethylcellulase in a medium containing 10 g CM-cellulose/l. The enzyme, when partially purified by gel filtration, had a mass of about 29 kDa as determined by both SDS-PAGE and gel filtration chromatography. It was optimally active at pH 9.5 and 40°C, and was stable from pH 7 to 11 at 4°C for 24 h. The enzyme was stimulated by Ca2+ (1mm) but was completely inhibited by Hg2+ (1mm). Neither EDTA nor EGTA (10mm) affected the activity.The author is with the Department of Biological Sciences, University of Jordan. PO Box 2686, Amman 11181, Jordan  相似文献

When the thermophilic mold Thermoascus aurantiacus var. levisporus was grown in a modified Czapek Dox medium containing casein the filtrate was found to contain proteolytic activity. The maximum production of activity occurred at 50 ° C in a medium containing 8% casein. The filtrate was subjected to ammonium sulfate fractionation and chromatography on DEAE-cellulose. Two proteases were separated. No further work was done on protease II. Protease I was further purified by gel filtration on Sephadex G 100–200. It showed a 40-fold purification with a final recovery of approximately 25%. It is a neutral protease with a pH optimum at 7.0. The optimal activity of the enzyme occurred in 0.02 M phosphate buffer but was completely inhibited at a concentration of 0.1 M. The optimum temperature for casein hydrolysis was found to be 55 ° C. The enzyme was inhibited by Hg++ but was greatly stimulated by Cu++ and mercaptoethanol. Metallo and sulfhydryl agents had no significant effect on enzyme activity.  相似文献

The L-amino acid oxidase (L-aao) from Bacillus carotarum 2Pfa was purified to homogeneity, as judged by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, from crude sonicated cell extract by a combination of anion exchange chromatography and gel filtration. The purified enzyme was a dimer with a native relative molecular mass of approximately 102,000 to 115,000 and comprised two identical subunits of 54,000. The isoelectric point of the L-aao was at pH 4.8 the ph optimum was at 8.0–8.5 and the temperature optimum was at approximately 50° C. It was stable for several months at + 4° C and at –20° C. The enzyme contained 2 mol flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD)/mol enzyme and exhibited relatively broad range substrate specificity, oxidising a total of ten L-amino acids and , albeit to a much lesser extent, seven D-amino acids. Kinetic studies revealed that the three aromatic L-amino acids were the preferred substrates.  相似文献

A strain of Serratia marcescens that produced chondroitinase was isolated from soil. It produced a novel chondroitinase AC, which was purified to homogeneity. The enzyme was composed of two identical subunits of 35 kDa as revealed by SDS-PAGE and gel filtration. The isoelectric point for the chondroitinase AC was 7.19. Its optimal activity was at pH 7.5 and 40 °C. The purified enzyme was active on chondroitin sulfates A and C and hyaluronic acid, but was not with chondroitin sulfate B (dermatan sulfate), heparin or heparan sulfate. The apparent Km and Vmax of the chondroitinase AC for chondroitin sulfate A were 0.4 mg ml–1 and 85 mmol min–1 mg–1, respectively, and for chondroitin sulfate C, 0.5 mg ml–1 and 103 mmol min–1 mg–1, respectively.  相似文献

A strain of Kocuria rosea able to secrete keratin-hydrolysing proteinases (keratinases) in submerged batch cultures with finely milled feathers as carbon and nitrogen sources was studied. The highest production of keratinases was obtained when feathers were used as the only fermentation substrate (17 U/mg). Considerably lower activity was present in cultures containing glucose and others nutrient supplements. The optimum temperature and pH for keratinolytic activity was 40 °C and 10, respectively. Gelatin-sodium dodecyl sulphate–polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS–PAGE) electrophoresis analysis showed that Kocuria rosea grown on feathers secreted at least two alkaline extracellular proteases with apparent molecular weights of 90.2 and >200 kDa, respectively. These proteolytic activities appear sequentially during microbial growth. Keratinolytic activity was strongly inhibited by phenylmethanesulphonyl fluoride (PMSF), chymostatin and crystalline soybean trypsin inhibitor, indicating the presence of serine proteases. Proteolytic enzymes derived from the biodegradation of feathers by this microorganism could be a useful biotechnological tool in the leather, food and cosmetic industries.  相似文献

An extracellular, highly thermostable and alkaline CMCase was purified from Bacillus sp. VG1 using ion exchange and gel filtration chromatography. Enzyme was optimally produced in a medium containing 1.0% CMC and 0.5% tryptone. The purified CMCase had a pH optimum of 9–10 and a half life of 12 min even at 100 °C. The enzyme activity was reduced by Hg2+ and stimulated by Co2+, Na+ and K+. Various detergents and proteinases moderately inhibited the CMCase activity. The molecular weight studies showed a single band on SDS–PAGE.  相似文献

Endoxylanases from the thermophilic fungus, Thermomyces lanuginosus ATCC 44008 (cellulase free wild and mutant strains), were purified to homogeneity by anion-exchange and molecular-sieve chromatographic methods. The purified enzymes were monomers with molecular masses of 22 kDa (wild type) and 24 kDa (mutant), estimated by SDS-PAGE and gel filtration. As glycoproteins, the purified enzymes had 0.74% (wild type) and 11.8% (mutant) carbohydrate contents, and pI values of 5.8 and 6, respectively. The optimal pH and temperature values of wild type xylanase were determined to be pH 7 and 60 °C, whereas pH 6.7 and 70 °C, were optimal for the purified mutant enzyme (K m and V max values of 3.7 mg ml–1 and 670 mol min–1 xylose compared to the kinetic values of the purified wild type xylanase –5.1 mg ml–1 and 385 mol min–1 xylose). Inhibition studies suggested the possible involvement of histidine, tryptophan residues and carboxylic groups in the binding or catalysis.  相似文献

Extracellular chitinase from Alcaligenes xylosoxydans was purified to electrophoretic homogeneity using affinity and gel filtration chromatography. The molecularmass of chitinase was estimated to be 45 kDa and44 kDa by SDS-PAGE and gel-filtration, respectively. The enzyme was optimally active at 50 °C (over 30 min) and pH 5. Activity staining after PAGE showed a single band. The Km for chitin was 3 g l–1. Cu2+ and Na+ at 5 mM inhibited chitinase activity to 25% while Ca2+, Mg2+ and Ba2+ had no effect at the same concentration. The purified enzyme degraded mycelia of Aspergillus niger.  相似文献

 Three aryl alcohol oxidases (AAOs; EC 1.1.3.7) I, II, and III from the culture filtrate of a strain of white-rot fungus Pleurotus ostreatus were purified by multistep chromatography. Each of the purified AAOs I, II, and III had the same molecular masses of 70 kDa and 72 kDa on gel filtration chromatography and sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, respectively. Their optimum temperature was 40°C, but their optimum pHs differed slightly. The N-terminal amino acid sequence of AAOs I, II, and III was determined to be Ala-Asp-Lys-Asp-Tyr-Ile-Val-Val-Gly-Ala, which showed significant similarity to those of Pleurotus eryngii (80% identity) and Pleurotus ostreatus Florida (60% identity).

A carboxypeptidase B (CPB) has been purified from dogfish (Scyliorhinus canicula) pancreas and partially characterized. The purification procedure included acetone precipitation, ion-exchange chromatography on a CM-cellulose column and gel filtration on Sephadex G-75. The purified enzyme migrates as a single band both on PAGE and SDS-PAGE. Its molecular mass is estimated to be about 32 kDa. The optimum of activity is obtained at pH 7.5–8.2. The enzyme is inhibited by typical metal-chelating agents (EDTA and o-phenanthroline) and by Hg2+. It is activated by Co2+, l-cysteine and by heat treatment at 40° and 50°C. Kinetic parameters, Km and kcat, of native enzyme, Co2+-activated CPB and heat-treated CPB have been determined  相似文献

Rosmarinic acid synthase from cell cultures of Coleus blumei Benth. was purified to apparent homogeneity by fractionated ammonium sulfate precipitation (60–80% saturation), hydrophobic interaction chromatography, affinity chromatography and gel filtration. This purification procedure resulted in a 225-fold-enriched specific enzyme activity with a yield of 9%. The protein preparation was apparently pure according to sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) and two-dimensional gel electrophoresis. The apparent molecular mass determined by gel filtration and SDS-PAGE was 77 kDa, indicating that rosmarinic acid synthase is a monomeric enzyme.Abbreviations DTT dithiothreitol - HIC hydrophobic interaction chromatography - RA rosmarinic acid - RAS rosmarinic acid synthase - SDS-PAGE sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis The financial support of the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft is gratefully acknowledged.

The gene, encoding malate synthase (MS), aceB, was cloned from the thermophilic bacterium Streptomyces thermovulgaris by homology-based PCR. The 1,626-bp cloned fragment encodes a protein consisting of 541 amino acids. S. thermovulgaris malate synthase (stMS) gene was over-expressed in Escherichia coli using a glutathione-S transferase (GST) fusion vector (pGEX-6P-1), purified by affinity chromatography, and subsequently cleaved from its GST fusion partner. The purified stMS was characterized and compared to a mesophilic malate synthase (scMS) from Streptomyces coelicolor. stMS exhibited higher temperature optima (40–60 °C) than those of scMS (28–37 °C). It was more thermostable and very resistant to the chemical denaturant urea. Amino acid sequence comparison of stMS with four mesophilic streptomycete MSs indicated that they share 70.9–91.4% amino acid identities, with stMS possessing slightly more charged residues (~31%) than its mesophilic counterparts (~28–29%). Seven charged residues (E85, R187, R209, H239, H364, R382 and K520) that were unique to stMS may be selectively and strategically placed to support its peculiar characteristics.  相似文献

Nucleotidase cascades (apyrase, 5′ nucleotidase, and adenosine deaminase (ADA) were investigated in the parasitic trematode Fasciola gigantica. ADA had the highest activity in the nucleotidase cascades. Adenosine deaminase was purified from F. gigantica through acetone precipitation and chromatography on CM-cellulose. Two forms of enzyme (ADAI, ADAII) were separated. ADAII was purified to homogeneity after chromatography on Sephacryl S-200. The molecular mass was 29 KDa for the native and denatured enzyme using gel filtration and SDS-PAGE, respectively. The enzyme (ADAII) had a pH optimum at 7.5 and a Km 1.0 mM adenosine, a temperature optimum at 40 °C and heat stability up to 40 °C. The order of effectiveness of metals as inhibitors was found to be Hg2+ > Mn2+ > Cu2+ > Ca2+ > Zn2+ > Ni2+ > Ba2+.  相似文献

The production and purification of a calcium-dependent protease by Bacillus cereus BG1 were studied. The production of the protease was found to depend specifically on the calcium concentration in the culture medium. This suggests that this metal ion is essential for the induction of protease production and/or stabilisation of the enzyme after synthesis. The calcium requirement is highly specific since other metal ions (such as Mg2+ and Ba2+, which both activate the enzyme) are not able to induce protease production. The most appropriate medium for growth and protease production comprises (g L–1) starch 5, CaCl2 2, yeast extract 2, K2HPO4 0.2 and KH2PO4 0.2. The protease of BG1 strain was purified to homogeneity by ultrafiltration, heat treatment, gel filtration on Sephacryl S-200, ion exchange chromatography on DEAE-cellulose and, finally, a second gel filtration on Sephacryl S-200, with a 39-fold increase in specific activity and 23% recovery. The molecular weight was estimated to be 34 kDa on SDS-PAGE. The optimum temperature and pH of the purified enzyme were determined to be 60°C and 8.0, respectively, in 100 mM Tris-HCl buffer + 2 mM CaCl2.  相似文献

A traditional method is reported for purification of phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase (PEPC; EC 4.1.1.31) from leaves of Amaranthus hypochondriacus L. with a high yield of 50 %, 135-fold purification, and specific activity of 900 mmol kg–1(protein) s–1. PEPC was purified from light-adapted leaves of A. hypochondriacus, involving 40–60 % ammonium sulphate fractionation, followed by chromatography on columns of DEAE-Sepharose, hydroxylapatite (HAP), and Seralose 6-B. The enzyme appeared as a single band on 10 % SDS-PAGE, with a molecular mass of about 100 kDa. Kinetic studies with purified enzyme confirmed the PEPC to be the light-form of the enzyme. Glycerol generally increased the stability of PEPC. The stability and storage of the purified enzyme was studied at temperatures of 4 °C, –20 °C, and liquid nitrogen. PEPC maintained its activity for up to 3 months upon storage with 50 % (v/v) glycerol in liquid nitrogen.  相似文献

Two pepsins (A and B) were purified from the stomach of pectoral rattail (Coryphaenoides pectoralis) by acidification, ammonium sulfate precipitation, gel filtration chromatography and anion exchange chromatography to obtain a single band on native-PAGE and SDS-PAGE. The purities of pepsin A and B were increased to 7.1- and 13.0-fold with approximately 5.7% and 2.2% yield, respectively. Pepsin A and B had the apparent molecular weights of 35 and 31 kDa, respectively, when analyzed using SDS-PAGE and Sephacryl S-200 gel filtration. Pepsin A and B showed maximal activity at pH 3.0 and 3.5, respectively, and had the same optimal temperature at 45 °C using hemoglobin as a substrate. Both pepsin A and B were stable in the pH range of 2.0–6.0 but were unstable at the temperatures greater than 40 °C. Activity of both pepsins was inhibited by pepstatin A and was activated by divalent cations, indicating pepsin characteristics. Activities of both pepsins continuously decreased as NaCl concentration increased (0–30%). The enzymes had high affinity and activity toward hemoglobin with Km and Kcat values of 98–152 μM and 32–50 S− 1, respectively. Purified pepsins generally showed the similar characteristics to other fish pepsins.  相似文献
