Change in the cellular localization of alkaline phosphatase by alteration of its carboxy-terminal sequence

Summary Alkaline phosphatase (AP) is secreted into the medium when the carboxy-terminal 25 amino acids are replaced by the 60 amino acid carboxy-terminal signal peptide (HlyA_s) ofEscherichia coli haemolysin (HlyA). Secretion of the AP-HlyA_s fusion protein is dependent on HlyB and HlyD but independent of SecA and SecY. The efficiency of secretion by HlyB/HlyD is decreased when AP carries its own N-terminal signal peptide. Translocation of this fusion protein into the periplasm is not observed even in the absence of HlyB/HlyD. The failure of the Sec export machinery to transport the latter protein into the periplasm seems to be due in part to the loss of the carboxy-terminal sequence of AP since even AP derivatives which do not carry the HlyA signal peptide but lack the 25 C-terminal amino acids of AP are localized in the membrane but not translocated into the periplasm.     

Rapid and highly sensitive electrochemical determination of alkaline phosphatase using a composite tyrosinase biosensor

The use of an amperometric graphite-Teflon composite tyrosinase biosensor for the rapid monitoring of alkaline phosphatase (ALP), with no need of an incubation step and using phenyl phosphate as the substrate, is reported. Phenol generated by the action of ALP is monitored at the tyrosinase composite electrode through the electrochemical reduction of the o-quinone produced to catechol, which produces a cycle between the tyrosinase substrate and the electroactive product, giving rise to the amplification of the biosensor response and to the sensitive detection of ALP. The current was measured at -0.10 V 5 min after the addition of ALP. As a compromise between high ALP activity and high sensitivity for the detection of phenol, a pH of 8.5 was chosen. The substrate concentration was also optimized. A linear calibration plot was obtained for ALP between 2.0 x 10(-13) and 2.5 x 10(-11), with a detection limit of 6.7 x 10(-14) M. Different types of milk were analyzed with good results, using an extremely simple and rapid procedure.

Evaluation of different alkali treatments of bagasse pith for cultivation of Cellulomonas sp.

Biomass production of Cellulomonas was optimal with 1% (w/v) bagasse pith pre-treated with either 0.2 M NaOH for 1 h at 80°C or 0.4 M NaOH for 40 h at 28 to 30°C. Growth was similar to that obtained with a more severe treatment used as control and compared well with other reports for cellulolytic bacteria cultivated on pre-treated bagasse pith.
