盐土生古菌属(Haloterrigena)是一类生长在含有1.7~5.5 mol/L NaCl、17~60℃温度范围内的极端嗜盐古菌。自该属1999年被建立以来,目前已有10个种被有效发表。但是在基于16S rRNA或rpoB'基因的系统进化树上,盐土生古菌属物种常与碱线菌属(Natrinema)和嗜盐碱红菌属(Natronorubrum)的成员交叉聚类在一起;而且盐土生古菌属内各成员间的特征也不尽相同,如多数盐土生古菌属菌株生长pH范围6.0~9.0,最适pH 7.0~7.5,然而大庆盐土生古菌(Haloterrigena daqingensis)为该属的唯一嗜碱成员,生长pH在8.0~10.5,最适为pH 10.0;在化学分类特征方面,该属的多数菌株含有糖脂类型为双硫化二糖基二醚(disulfated diglycosyl diether,S2-DGD-1),然而伊斯帕尼亚盐土生古菌(Haloterrigena hispanica)菌株FP1含有S-DGD硫酸化二糖基二醚(sulfated diglycosyl diether)。鉴于该属存在的这些特殊特征,以及与碱线菌属和嗜盐碱红菌属在系统进化上的特殊关系,结合前期发表的该属的新种和相关文献资料,系统综述了盐土生古菌属的建立、分类学特征、生态分布、基因组信息等方面的研究进展,以期为盐土生古菌属已知种分类地位的确定、该属其他新分离菌株的分类鉴定、功能基因资源的挖掘与开发提供借鉴。 相似文献

Thermostable amylopullulanases can catalyse the hydrolysis of both α-1,4 and α-1,6 glucosidic bonds and are of considerable interest in the starch saccharification industry. In this study, the gene Apu-Tk encoding an extracellular amylopullulanase was cloned from an extremely thermophilic anaerobic archaeon Thermococcus kodakarensis KOD1. Apu-Tk encodes an 1100-amino acid protein with a 27-residue signal peptide, which has a predicted mass of 125 kDa after signal peptide cleavage. Sequence alignments showed that Apu-Tk contains the five regions conserved in all GH57 family proteins. Full-length Apu-Tk was expressed in Escherichia coli and purified to homogeneity. The purified enzyme displayed both pullulanase and amylase activity. The optimal temperature for Apu-Tk to hydrolyse pullulan and soluble starch was >100 °C. Apu-Tk was also active at a broad range of pH (4–7), with an optimum pH of ~5.0–5.5. Apu-Tk also retained >30% of its original activity and partially folded globular structure in the presence of 8% SDS or 10% β-mercaptoethanol. The high yield, broad pH range, and stability of Apu-Tk implicate it as a potential enzyme for industrial applications. 相似文献

(1) Chitin-UDP acetylglucosaminyltransferase (E.C. 2.4.1.16., chitin synthetase) in the cell-free system from phytopathogenic fungus Piricularia oryzae, and effects of various polyoxins and related compounds on the enzyme activity were studied. Polyoxins A~M, polyoxin A derivatives, polyoxin C derivatives, 5′-amino-5′-deoxyuridine, uridine and thymidine inhibited equally the incorporation of N-acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc) from UDP-N-acetylglucosamine (UDP-GlcNAc) into chitin. (2) Competition between the above inhibitors and UDP-GlcNAc was observed by kinetic studies. The Km for UDP-GlcNAc was determined to be 3.3 × 10?3 m and the Ki values for polyoxins A~M, except polyoxin C, were found to be in the range of 3.3 × 10?5 m to 3.4 × 10?6 m. For polyoxin C, 5′-amino-5′-deoxyuridine and uridine, the Ki values of 2.7 × 10?3 m, 8.0 × 10?3 m and 3.0 × 10?3 m were given, respectively. The inhibitor constants for other related compounds were also calculated. (3) The values of binding affinity, ?ΔG, for formation of substrate- or inhibitor-enzyme complexes were calculated from the Km or Ki values. In addition, partial binding affinities, ?Δg, for certain moieties or groups of polyoxins were estimated from the ?ΔG. For instance, the ?ΔG values for UDP-GlcNAc and polyoxin L were 5.7 kcal/mole and 9.2 kcal/mole, respectively. And the ?Δg values for the nucleoside moiety (part I), the carbamylpolyoxamic acid moiety (part II) and the carboxyl group at C5′ position of polyoxin L were 5.2, 3.5 and 0.7 kcal/mole, respectively. (4) From the results obtained, the mechanism of action and relation between chemical structure and competitive inhibition of chitin synthetase were discussed. 相似文献

It has been reported that one of the hyperthermostable aminopeptidases from Pyrococcus horikoshii exhibits hydrolytic activity toward short peptides and acyl-peptides (deblocking activity). In the genome database of P. horikoshii, two new open reading frames homologous to the hyperthermostable aminopeptidase of P. horikoshii were found. The two new genes for the proteins were cloned, expressed using E. coli, and characterized. The purified proteins gave a single band on SDS-PAGE corresponding to molecular masses of 42 kDa and 41 kDa respectively, and exhibited aminopeptidase activity, including deblocking activity. These enzymes are likely to exist as oligomeric structures at neutral pH. The optimum pHs of the two enzyme activities were in the range of 7.0 to 7.5, and the optimum temperatures for the activities were around 100 °C. The enzymes exhibited low hydrolytic activity for peptide substrates longer than 10 residues. They were activated by cobalt and zinc ions. Their substrate specificities and activation factors are different. It was confirmed that P. horikoshii has three similar aminopeptidases with deblocking activity and that these enzymes appear to play important roles in hydrolyzing small peptides in P. horikoshii cells. 相似文献

DGGE method for analyzing 16S rDNA of methanogenic archaeal community in paddy field soil 总被引:24,自引:0,他引:24
A denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE) method for analyzing 16S rDNA of methanogenic archaeal community in paddy field soil is presented. Five specific primers for 16S rDNA of methanogenic archaea, which were modified from the primers for archaea, were first evaluated by polymerase chain reaction and DGGE using genomic DNAs of 13 pure culture strains of methanogenic archaea. The DGGE analysis was possible with two primer pairs (0348aF-GC and 0691R; 0357F-GC and 0691R) of the five pairs tested although 16S rDNA of some non-methanogenic archaea was amplified with 0348aF-GC and 0691R. These two primer pairs were further evaluated for use in analysis of methanogenic archaeal community in Japanese paddy field soil. Good separation and quality of patterns were obtained in DGGE analysis with both primer pairs. A total of 41 DNA fragments were excised from the DGGE gels and their sequences were determined. All fragments belonged to methanogenic archaea. These results indicate that the procedure of DGGE analysis with the primer pair 0357F-GC and 0691R is suitable for investigating methanogenic archaeal community in paddy field soil. 相似文献

The P-type CPX-ATPases are responsible for the transport of heavy metal ions in archaea, bacteria, and eukaryotes. We have chosen one of the two CPX-ATPases of the thermophile Sulfolobus solfataricus, CopB (= SSO2896) for the investigation of the molecular mechanism of this integral membrane protein. We recombinately expressed three different soluble domains of this protein (named CopB-A, CopB-B, and CopB-C) in Escherichia coli and purified them to homogeneity. 3D crystals of CopB-B, the 29 kDa catalytic ATP binding/phosphorylation domain were produced, which diffracted to a resolution of 2.2 A. CopB-B has heavy metal stimulated phosphatase activity, which was half maximal in the presence of 80 microM Cu2+. The protein forms a phosphorylated intermediate with the substrate gamma-(32P)-ATP. No specific activation of the polypeptide was observed, when CopB-B phosphatase activity was tested in the presence of the purified CopB-C and CopB-A proteins, which provide the cation binding and the phosphatase domains. We conclude that CopB is a putatively copper translocating ATPase, in which structural elements integrally located in the membrane are required for full, coordinated activation of the catalytic ATP binding domain. 相似文献

New hyperthermostable aminopeptidase from the hyperthermophilic archaeon Pyrococcus horikoshii has acylamino acid releasing (deblocking) activity for acyl (blocked) peptides. Such an enzyme can be used for N-terminal sequencing of acyl peptides. To clarify the active site of the deblocking aminopeptidase, we prepared three mutants in which one of the three possible active site amino acid residues (Asp or Glu) was replaced with their amide derivatives. Activity and cobalt ion dependence of these mutants were examined and compared with those of the native enzyme. The results suggest that all the three possible residues (Asp173, Glu205, and Glu206) participate in the catalytic activity through binding with the cobalt ion. 相似文献

Deblocking aminopeptidase (DAP) is an exoprotease that can release N-terminal amino acids from blocked peptides. Three DAP homologous (TkDAP1, TkDAP2, and TkDAP3) are annotated in the genome data base of Thermococcus kodakarensis KOD1. TkDAP2 and TkDAP3 were identified as proteins that are overexpressed in response to heat and oxidative stress by two-dimensional electrophoresis. In this study, the TkDAP1 and TkDAP2 genes were cloned and expressed in Escherichia coli. The two proteins were purified homogeneity and analyzed by gel filtration chromatography and electron microscopy. TkDAP1 showed two oligomers, which were identified as an octodecimer and a dodecamer. TkDAP2 produced three native forms: octodecimer, dodecamer, and trimer. Dodecamer assembly was the main form in the two proteins. Finally, TkDAP1 was found to have higher deblocking aminopeptidase activity on the substrates of Ac-Leu-pNA and Ac-Ala-Ala-Ala, while TkDAP2 had higher aminopeptidase activity on the substrates of Leu-pNA and Ala-Ala-Ala-pNA. 相似文献
