It was identified as Aeromonas hydrophila by physiological test and 16S rDNA sequence analysis. A gene encoding of laccase from a newly isolated Aeromonas hydrophila WL-11 was cloned and characterized. Nucleotide sequence analysis showed an open reading frame of 1605 bp encoding a polypeptide comprised of 534 amino acids. The primary structure of the enzyme predicted the structural features characteristic of other laccases, including the conserved regions of four histidine-rich copper-binding sites. The predicted amino acid sequence showed a high homology (more than 60%) with bacterial laccases in the genome and protein databases and the highest degree of similarity (61% identity) was observed with the multicopper oxidase of KlebsieUa sp. 601. When expressed in Escherichia coli, the recombinant enzyme was overproduced in the cytoplasm as soluble and active form. The purified enzyme had an optimum pH of 2.6 and 8.0 for ABTS (2,2'-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzthiazolinesulfonic acid) and DMP (2,6-dimethoxyphenol), respectively. The kinetic study on ABTS revealed a higher affinity of this enzyme to this substrate than DMP.展开更多

The purification procedure included ammonium sulfate precipitation, ion exchange chromatography, and gel chromatography. The molecular weight and isoelectric point (pI) of VP-Peco60-7 were determined to be approxi-mately 40 kDa and 4.1, respectively. By N-terminal sequence determination and peptide mapping analysis, VP-Peco60-7 was found to be similar to the versatile peroxidase isoenzyme VPL1, which was previously isolated from liquid cultures of the same species. However, the molecular weight and pI of VP-Peco60-7 were different from those of versatile peroxidases of liquid cultures, implying that the VP-Peco60-7 in this study is of a novel type. With 2,2′-azino-bis-(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulphonic acid) (ABTS) as a substrate, the maximal enzyme activity was obtained at 50 °C and pH 3.0. The catalysis of ABTS by VP-Peco60-7 was expressed by the Michaelis-Menten equa-tion. At 50 °C and pH 3.0, the maximum velocity (V max ) was 188.68 U·mg-1 and the michaelis constant (K m ) was 203.09 μmol·L-1 .展开更多

The strain A1 was mutagenized by uhraviolet radiation and the strain Z3 with a significantly improved specific activity of filter paper enzyme was screened. Enzymatic characteristics, degradation ability of cellulose and taxonomic status of A1 and Z3 were also studied in this paper. The results showed that filter paper enzyme specific activity of Z3 increased 74.47% than that of A1 and the property of enzyme production was steady. The optimum pH values of filter paper enzyme produced by A1 and Z3 were 4. 6 and 3.8 respectively and the optimum temperatures were 45 and 50 ℃, respectively. When CMC-Na was used as substrate, Vmax of the two strains was similar while Km of Z3 was lower than that of A1 , which indicated that Z3 had a strong affinity for the substrate. Enzymes produced by Z3 were more resistant to high temperature. Strains A1 and Z3 could grow well on the culture mediums with mulberry branch powder as carbon source, but Z3 grew better than A1. A1 and Z3 were preliminarily identified as AspergiUus according to the morphological identification.展开更多

Compared with ALASs encoded by hemA genes from Agrobacterium radiobacter(AR-ALAS) and Rhodobacter sphaeroides (RS-ALAS), the specific activity of RC-ALAS reached 198.2 U/mg, which was about 31.2% and 69.5% higher than those of AR-ALAS (151.1 U/mg) and RS-ALAS (116.9 U/mg), respectively. The optimum pH values and temperatures of the three above mentioned enzymes were all pH 7.5 and 37 ℃, respectively. Moreover, RC-ALAS was more sensitive to pH, while the other two were sensitive to temperature. The effects of metals, ethylene diamine tetraacetic acid (EDTA), and sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) on the three ALASs were also investigated. The results indicate that they had the same effects on the activities of the three ALASs. SDS and metal ions such as Co^2+, Zn^2+, and Cu^2+ strongly inhibited the activities of the ALASs, while Mn^2+ exerted slight inhibition, and K^+, Ca^2+, Ba^2+, Mg^2+, or EDTA had no significant effect. The specificity constant of succinyl coenzyme A [(kcatlKm)^S-CoA] of RC-ALAS was 1.4989, which was higher than those of AR-ALAS (0.7456) and RS-ALAS (1.1699), showing its high catalytic efficiency. The fed-batch fermentation was conducted using the recombinant strain containing the R. capsulatus hemA gene, and the yield of 5-aminolevulinic acid (ALA) achieved was 8.8 g/L (67 mmol/L) under the appropriate conditions.展开更多

Compared with ALASs encoded by hemA genes from Agrobacterium radiobacter(AR-ALAS) and Rhodobacter sphaeroides (RS-ALAS), the specific activity of RC-ALAS reached 198.2 U/mg, which was about 31.2% and 69.5% higher than those of AR-ALAS (151.1 U/mg) and RS-ALAS (116.9 U/mg), respectively. The optimum pH values and temperatures of the three above mentioned enzymes were all pH 7.5 and 37 ℃, respectively. Moreover, RC-ALAS was more sensitive to pH, while the other two were sensitive to temperature. The effects of metals, ethylene diamine tetraacetic acid (EDTA), and sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) on the three ALASs were also investigated. The results indicate that they had the same effects on the activities of the three ALASs. SDS and metal ions such as Co^2+, Zn^2+, and Cu^2+ strongly inhibited the activities of the ALASs, while Mn^2+ exerted slight inhibition, and K^+, Ca^2+, Ba^2+, Mg^2+, or EDTA had no significant effect. The specificity constant of succinyl coenzyme A [(kcatlKm)^S-CoA] of RC-ALAS was 1.4989, which was higher than those of AR-ALAS (0.7456) and RS-ALAS (1.1699), showing its high catalytic efficiency. The fed-batch fermentation was conducted using the recombinant strain containing the R. capsulatus hemA gene, and the yield of 5-aminolevulinic acid (ALA) achieved was 8.8 g/L (67 mmol/L) under the appropriate conditions.

文摘Lactase is a member of theβ-galactosidase family of enzymes that can hydrolyze lactose into galactose and glucose.However,extracellular lactase production was still restricted to the process of cell lysis.In this study,lactase-producing Kluyveromyces lactis JNXR-2101 was obtained using a rapid and sensitive method based on the fluorescent substrate 4-methylumbelliferyl-β-D-galactopyranoside.The purified enzyme was identified as a neutral lactase with an optimum pH of 9.To facilitate extracellular production of lactase,a putative mannoprotein KLLA0_E01057g of K.lactis was knocked out.It could effectively promote cell wall degradation and lactase production after lyticase treatment,which showed potential on other extracellular enzyme preparation.After optimizing the fermentation conditions,the lactase yield from mannoprotein-deficient K.lactis JNXR-2101ΔE01057g reached 159.62 U/mL in a 5-L fed-batch bioreactor.
文摘Lactate dehydrogenase and malate dehydrogenase are the two main alpha-hydroxy acid dehydrogenases in the human body.We investigated the catalytic properties of human lactate dehydrogenase LDHC,LDHL6A and malate dehydrogenase MDH1 on aromatic α-keto acids phenylpyruvic acid,p-hydroxyphenylpyruvic acid and 3,4-dihydroxyphenylpyruvic acid.The optimum temperatures for LDHC,LDHL6A,and MDH1 are 37℃,35℃,and 45℃,respectively;and the optimum pH is 6.5,6.5,and 5.5,respectively.The K_(m)of LDHC for phenylpyruvic acid and 3,4-dihydroxyphenylpyruvic acid were 0.90 mM and 0.92 mM,respectively.LDHL6A has a high affinity for phenylpyruvic acid and 3,4-dihydroxyphenylpyruvic acid with K_(m)of 0.77 mM and 0.80 mM,respectively;MDH1 has an extremely high affinity(K_(m)=0.46 mM)and catalytic efficiency(k_(cat)/K_(m)=23.87 s^(-1)·mM^(-1))for p-hydroxyphenylpyruvic acid.It also has a high affinity for 3,4-dihydroxyphenylpyruvic acid with a K_(m)of 0.90 mM,but with a low affinity for phenylpyruvic acid(K_(m)=3.76 mM).The catalytic properties of human LDHC,LDHL6A,and MDH1 for the abovementioned aromatic α-keto acids may be one of the sources of L-phenyllactic acid,L-p-hydroxyphenyllactic acid,and L-3,4-dihydroxyphenyllactic acid in humans.
