The binding of cellobiohydrolases to cellulose is a crucial initial step in cellulose hydrolysis. In the search for a detailed understanding of the function of cellobiohydrolases, much information concerning how the enzymes and their constituent catalytic and cellulose-binding domains interact with cellulose and with each other and how binding changes during hydrolysis is still needed. In this study we used tritium labeling by reductive methylation to monitor binding of the two Trichoderma reesei cellobiohydrolases, Cel6A and Cel7A (formerly CBHII and CBHI), and their catalytic domains. Measuring hydrolysis by high-performance liquid chromatography and measuring binding by scintillation counting allowed us to correlate activity and binding as a function of the extent of degradation. These experiments showed that the density of bound protein increased with both Cel6A and Cel7A as hydrolysis proceeded, in such a way that the adsorption points moved off the initial binding isotherms. We also compared the affinities of the cellulose-binding domains and the catalytic domains to the affinities of the intact proteins and found that in each case the affinity of the enzyme was determined by the linkage between the catalytic and cellulose-binding domains. Desorption of Cel6A by dilution of the sample showed hysteresis (60 to 70% reversible); in contrast, desorption of Cel7A did not show hysteresis and was more than 90% reversible. These findings showed that the two enzymes differ with respect to the reversibility of binding. 相似文献

The impact of oxidative modification and partial removal of lignin by laccase-mediator treatments on the enzymatic hydrolysis of steam-pretreated softwood (SPS) was evaluated. Two mediators, N-hydroxy-N-phenylacetamide (NHA) and its acetylated precursor, were oxidized by the laccase from Trametes hirsuta, and their effects on the activity of cellulolytic enzymes and on the hydrolysis yield of SPS were examined. Both simultaneous and sequential combinations of laccase-mediator treatments with commercial cellulases increased the sugar yield in the enzymatic hydrolysis of SPS. The maximal increase was 21% when a sequential treatment was applied. Laccase treatment alone was also shown to improve hydrolysis. NHA oxidized by laccase inhibited significantly the cellulases of Trichoderma reesei, but the presence of the solid substrate protected the activities against oxidative inactivation. Surface analysis of the lignocellulosic substrate before and after the laccase and cellulase treatments revealed an enrichment of lignin and an increase of carboxylic groups on the surface of the hydrolysis residue. 相似文献

A method is described for the determination of submicrogram amounts of alpha-tocopherol in 0.5 ml of packed erythrocytes. The alpha-tocopherol in a lipid extract is oxidized to alpha-tocopherylquinone which is separated by thin-layer chromatography, eluted, and quantitated by gas-liquid chromatography. Calculation is based on the recovery of added alpha-tocopherol-(3)H. Erythrocytes from stock rats had an average alpha-tocopherol concentration of 344 micro g/100 ml of packed cells, while for human cells the average was 235 micro g/100 ml. The ratio of red cell to plasma alpha-tocopherol was 0.482 for rat blood, and 0.244 for human blood. 相似文献
