In this study, we first tested the capacity for eight different salts as stress-mediated bioprocesses in the production of
transglutaminase (TGase). A significant effect on the cell growth and TGase production was obtained with the highest yield
of TGase being observed at 96 h of incubation (4.3 U/ml) when the basic medium was supplemented 0.10 M MgCl2, as opposed to that observed with the basic medium control (2.1 U/ml at 120 h). Data from Western blot assays showed that
transformation of pro-TGase to its mature enzyme occurred more rapidly in MgCl2 medium. Furthermore, total protease, metalloprotease, and serine protease were also synthesized at a faster rate in the medium
containing MgCl2. The results demonstrate that MgCl2 enhanced the production of key proteases involved in the activation of TGase biosynthesis. To explore the mechanism, viability
assay was performed. The results show that MgCl2 induced the mycelia differentiation, decreased cell growth rate, and stimulated cell death. We argue that TGase production
was promoted by the stimulation of mycelium differentiation induced by MgCl2 stress. 相似文献

Cellulase 12A from Thermotoga maritima (TmCel12A) is a hyperthermostable β-1,4-endoglucanase. We recently determined the crystal structures of TmCel12A and its complexes with oligosaccharides. Here, by using site-directed mutagenesis, the role played by Arg60 and Tyr61 in a unique surface loop of TmCel12A was investigated. The results are consistent with the previously observed hydrogen bonding and stacking interactions between these two residues and the substrate. Interestingly, the mutant Y61G had the highest activity when compared with the wild-type enzyme and the other mutants. It also shows a wider range of working temperatures than does the wild type, along with retention of the hyperthermostability. The k (cat) and K (m) values of Y61G are both higher than those of the wild type. In conjunction with the crystal structure of Y61G-substrate complex, the kinetic data suggest that the higher endoglucanase activity is probably due to facile dissociation of the cleaved sugar moiety at the reducing end. Additional crystallographic analyses indicate that the insertion and deletion mutations at the Tyr61 site did not affect the overall protein structure, but local perturbations might diminish the substrate-binding strength. It is likely that the catalytic efficiency of TmCel12A is a subtle balance between substrate binding and product release. The activity enhancement by the single mutation of Y61G provides a good example of engineered enzyme for industrial application. 相似文献

Background
Halophiles are extremophiles that thrive in environments with very high concentrations of salt. Although the salt reliance and physiology of these extremophiles have been widely investigated, the molecular working mechanisms of their enzymes under salty conditions have been little explored.Methodology/Principal Findings
A halophilic esterolytic enzyme LipC derived from archeaon Haloarcula marismortui was overexpressed from Escherichia coli BL21. The purified enzyme showed a range of hydrolytic activity towards the substrates of p-nitrophenyl esters with different alkyl chains (n = 2−16), with the highest activity being observed for p-nitrophenyl acetate, consistent with the basic character of an esterase. The optimal esterase activities were found to be at pH 9.5 and [NaCl] = 3.4 M or [KCl] = 3.0 M and at around 45°C. Interestingly, the hydrolysis activity showed a clear reversibility against changes in salt concentration. At the ambient temperature of 22°C, enzyme systems working under the optimal salt concentrations were very stable against time. Increase in temperature increased the activity but reduced its stability. Circular dichroism (CD), dynamic light scattering (DLS) and small angle neutron scattering (SANS) were deployed to determine the physical states of LipC in solution. As the salt concentration increased, DLS revealed substantial increase in aggregate sizes, but CD measurements revealed the maximal retention of the α-helical structure at the salt concentration matching the optimal activity. These observations were supported by SANS analysis that revealed the highest proportion of unimers and dimers around the optimal salt concentration, although the coexistent larger aggregates showed a trend of increasing size with salt concentration, consistent with the DLS data.Conclusions/Significance
The solution α-helical structure and activity relation also matched the highest proportion of enzyme unimers and dimers. Given that all the solutions studied were structurally inhomogeneous, it is important for future work to understand how the LipC''s solution aggregation affected its activity. 相似文献56.
The stability constants of the supramolecular complexes formed between L ((a,b,c,d)) or their Zn(2+) complexes, and adenosine 5'-triphosphate (ATP) in aqueous solution were determined by potentiometric titrations (25 degrees C, I = 0.1 mol dm(-3) KNO(3)). The results show that protonated aliphatic-substituted L (a,d) and aromatic-substituted L (b,c) ligands and/or Zn(II) ion can efficiently recognition the substrate, ATP. All of the equilibrium studies, (1)H and (31)P nuclear magnetic resonance spectra indicate that multiple interactions, including coordination, pi-stacking, ion-pairing, H-bonding, and possible ion-pi-donor, hydrophobic and even van der Waals interactions exist in the Zn(II)-L-ATP systems. On the other hand, the recognition of the substrates by the protonated ligands was significantly promoted by the addition of Zn(II), which leads to coordination competition between the mixed ligands, L and nucleotide. In Zn(II)/L/ATP systems the tendency for phosphate chain to receive proton and metal ion increases, facilitating the cleavage of the phosphate chain of the nucleotide. 相似文献

Bacterial diversity associated with Baer Soda Lake in Inner Mongolia of China was investigated using a culture-independent method. Bacterial 16S rRNA gene libraries were generated using bacterial oligonucleotide primers, and 16S rRNA gene sequences of 58 clones were analyzed phylogenetically. The library was dominated by 16S rDNAs of Gram-negative bacteria (24% -Proteobacteria, 31% -Proteobacteria, 33% -Proteobacteria, and 2% -Proteobacteria), with a lower percentage of clones corresponding to Gram-positive bacteria. Forty cloned sequences were similar to that of known bacterial isolates (>97% sequence similarity), represented by the species of the genera Brevundimonas, Comamonas, Alcaligenes, Stenotrophomonas, and Klebsiella. Eighteen cloned sequences showed less affiliation with known taxa (<97% sequence similarity) and may represent novel taxa.Communicated by K. Horikoshi 相似文献

Two related novel alkaliphilic and slightly halophilic bacteria are described. They are strain N10 from Lake Chahannor in China and strain 1E1 from Lake Elmenteita in East Africa. Both strains are strictly aerobic, heterotrophic, alkaliphilic, mesophilic, and require NaCl for growth. The optimal conditions for growth were at pH 10–10.5 and 2–3% (w/v) NaCl. Cells of both strains were Gram-negative, rod-shaped, non-spore-forming, and motile with a single polar flagellum. Cellular fatty acids in both strains were predominantly saturated and mono-unsaturated straight-chain fatty acids (16:0, 16:17c and 18:17c). The major isoprenoid quinone of both strains was Q8. The major polar lipids are phosphatidylglycerol, diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol phosphate and phosphatidylethanolamine. The guanine plus cytosine (G+C) content of the DNA was 52.5 mol% and 55.4 mol%, respectively. Phylogenetic analysis revealed that the two strains formed a distinct lineage within the gamma-3 subclass of the Proteobacteria. The strains shared a 16S rDNA sequence similarity of 96.1% and showed less than 93.7% of sequence similarity to any other known species. Based on polyphasic data, the two strains were differentiated from currently recognized genera and represent a new genus, Alkalimonas gen. nov., with two species, Alkalimonas amylolytica sp. nov. (type strain is N10T = AS 1.3430) and Alkalimonas delamerensis sp. nov. ( type strain is 1E1P, T = CBS 391.94). The GenBank accession numbers for the 16S rRNA gene sequence of strains N10 and 1E1 are AF250323 and X92130, respectively.Communicated by K. Horikoshi 相似文献

Crystal structures of ligand‐bound octaprenyl pyrophosphate synthase from Escherichia coli reveal the catalytic and chain‐length determining mechanisms 下载免费PDF全文
Chih‐Jung Kuo Chun‐Hsiang Huang Yingying Zheng Tzu‐Ping Ko Zhen Zhu Xinxin Feng Ke Wang Eric Oldfield Andrew H.‐J. Wang Po‐Huang Liang Rey‐Ting Guo Yanhe Ma 《Proteins》2015,83(1):37-45
Octaprenyl pyrophosphate synthase (OPPs) catalyzes consecutive condensation reactions of one allylic substrate farnesyl pyrophosphate (FPP) and five homoallylic substrate isopentenyl pyrophosphate (IPP) molecules to form a C40 long‐chain product OPP, which serves as a side chain of ubiquinone and menaquinone. OPPs belongs to the trans‐prenyltransferase class of proteins. The structures of OPPs from Escherichia coli were solved in the apo‐form as well as in complexes with IPP and a FPP thio‐analog, FsPP, at resolutions of 2.2–2.6 Å, and revealed the detailed interactions between the ligands and enzyme. At the bottom of the active‐site tunnel, M123 and M135 act in concert to form a wall which determines the final chain length. These results represent the first ligand‐bound crystal structures of a long‐chain trans‐prenyltransferase and provide new information on the mechanisms of catalysis and product chain elongation.

Bacillus pseudofirmus OF4 is an extreme but facultative alkaliphile that grows non-fermentatively in a pH range from 7.5 to above 11.4 and can withstand large sudden increases in external pH. It is a model organism for studies of bioenergetics at high pH, at which energy demands are higher than at neutral pH because both cytoplasmic pH homeostasis and ATP synthesis require more energy. The alkaliphile also tolerates a cytoplasmic pH?>?9.0 at external pH values at which the pH homeostasis capacity is exceeded, and manages other stresses that are exacerbated at alkaline pH, e.g. sodium, oxidative and cell wall stresses. The genome of B.?pseudofirmus OF4 includes two plasmids that are lost from some mutants without viability loss. The plasmids may provide a reservoir of mobile elements that promote adaptive chromosomal rearrangements under particular environmental conditions. The genome also reveals a more acidic pI profile for proteins exposed on the outer surface than found in neutralophiles. A large array of transporters and regulatory genes are predicted to protect the alkaliphile from its overlapping stresses. In addition, unanticipated metabolic versatility was observed, which could ensure requisite energy for alkaliphily under diverse conditions. 相似文献
