Enzyme immobilization is a recovery technique that has been studied in several years, using support as a media to help enzyme dissolutions to the reaction substrate. Immobilization method used in this study was adsorption method, using specific lipase fromAspergillus oryzae. Lipase was partially purified from the culture supernatant ofAspergillus oryzae. Enzyme was immobilized by adsorbed on silica gel. Studies on free and immobilized lipase systems for determination of optimum pH, optimum temperature, thermal stability and reusability were carried out. The results showed that free lipase had optimum pH 8,2 and optimum temperature 35 °C while the immobilized lipase had optimum 8,2 and optimum temperature 45 °C. The thermal stability of the immobilized lipase, relative to that of the free lipase, was markedly increased. The immobilized lipase can be reused for at least six times.

Alcohol dehydrogenase isolated from broad bean was found to have a Km value of 1.0 × 1.0 -2 M, a pH optimum of 8.7 and a molecular weight of 60 000 � 5000. The enzyme lost 55 % of its activity after being heated at 55�C, and was totally inactivated at 70°C. Thermal stability of the enzyme was not enhanced by NAD+ or ethanol. The substrate specificity of the enzyme is reported. Cysteine and mercaptoethanol activated the enzyme, whilep-chloromercuribenzoate, Cu2+, Hg2+, B4O72- -, Zn2+ and EDTA inhibited it. The influence of ethanol, acetaldehyde and growth substances on alcohol dehydrogenase activity in germinating broad bean seeds and plant tissues was also studied.

Tannase was effectively immobilized on alginate by the method of crosslinking-entrapment-crosslinking with a high activity recovery of 76.6%. The properties of immobilized tannase were investigated. Its optimum temperature was determined to be 35 ° C, decreasing 10 °C compared with that of free enzyme, whereas the optimum pH of 5.0 did not change. The thermal and pH stabilities of immobilized tannase increased to some degree. The kinetic parameter, Km, for immobilized tannase was estimated to be 11.6 × 10-4 mol/L. Fe2+ and Mn2+ could activate the activity of immobilized tannase. The immobilized tannase was also applied to treat the tea beverage to investigate its haze-removing effect. The content of non-estern catechins in green tea, black tea and oolong tea increased by 52.17%, 12.94% and 8.83%, respectively. The content of estern catechins in green tea, oolong tea and black tea decreased by 20.0%, 16.68% and 5.04%, respectively. The anti-sediment effect of green tea infusion treated with immobilized tannase was significantly increased. The storage stability and reusability of the immobilized tannase were improved greatly, with 72.5% activity retention after stored for 42 days and 86.9% residual activity after repeatedly used for 30 times.

ABSTRACT 1,4,5,6-Tetrahydro-2-methyl-4-pyrimidinecarboxylic acid (ectoine) is an excellent osmoprotectant. The biosynthetic pathway of ectoine from aspartic β-semialdehyde (ASA), in Halomonas elongata, was elucidated by purification and characterization of each enzyme involved. 2,4-Diaminobutyrate (DABA) aminotransferase catalyzed reversively the first step of the pathway, conversion of ASA to DABA by transamination with l-glutamate. This enzyme required pyridoxal 5′-phosphate and potassium ions for its activity and stability. The gel filtration estimated an apparent molecular mass of 260 kDa, whereas molecular mass measured by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) was 44 kDa. This enzyme exhibited an optimum pH of 8.6 and an optimum temperature of 25°C and had Km s of 9.1 mM forl-glutamate and 4.5 mM for dl-ASA. DABA acetyltransferase catalyzed acetylation of DABA to γ-N-acetyl-α,γ-diaminobutyric acid (ADABA) with acetyl coenzyme A and exhibited an optimum pH of 8.2 and an optimum temperature of 20°C in the presence of 0.4 M NaCl. The molecular mass was 45 kDa by gel filtration. Ectoine synthase catalyzed circularization of ADABA to ectoine and exhibited an optimum pH of 8.5 to 9.0 and an optimum temperature of 15°C in the presence of 0.5 M NaCl. This enzyme had an apparent molecular mass of 19 kDa by SDS-PAGE and a Km of 8.4 mM in the presence of 0.77 M NaCl. DABA acetyltransferase and ectoine synthase were stabilized in the presence of NaCl (>2 M) and DABA (100 mM) at temperatures below 30°C.

Abstract Two different hexose-phosphorylating enzymes, hexokinase and fructokinase, were partially purified from suspension-cultured Catharanthus roseus cells. One of the enzymes, hexokinase, catalyzed the phosphorylation of both glucose and fructose. The Km values for glucose and fructose were 0.06 mM and 0.23 mM, respectively. The Vmax of the enzyme with fructose was approximately three times higher than with glucose. This enzyme was specific in its requirement for ATP and its Km value for ATP was 52 μM. The optimum pH was 8.0 and Mg2+ or Mn2+ was required for the activity. The activity was inhibited by considerably higher concentrations of ADP (i.e., 4 mM ADP was required for 50% inhibition). The second enzyme, fructokinase, was specific for fructose, and no activity was detected with glucose as substrate. This enzyme used UTP or CTP as phosphate donor. The Km values of this enzyme for fructose and UTP were 0.13 mM and 0.15 mM, respectively. The pH optimum was 7.2, and Mg2+ or Mn2+ was required for the activity. These divalent cations could be partially replaced by Ca2+. The activity was inhibited noncompetitively by ADP and AMP. 90% inhibition of the activity by 0.5 mM ADP was observed in the presence of 2 mM UTP and 5 mM MgCl2. Fructose-2,6-bisphosphate, glucose-1,6-bisphosphate, glucose-6-phosphate, and fructose-6-phosphate had little or no effect on the activity of both the hexokinase and the fructokinase. Based on these results, a discussion is presented of the role of hexokinase and fructokinase and their involvement in the regulation of the metabolism of sugars in Catharanthus cells.

A new method of purification of rat liver L-threonine deaminase has been developed, and the results obtained are compared with values obtained by other authors. Some properties of this enzyme (pH optimum, temperature optimum, thermal stability, specificity, etc.) have been examined and we found that the enzyme is inhibited by carbonate ions, that L-cysteine (a competitive inhibitor) is also an inactivator of the enzyme and that it is bound to the enzyme in a ratio of 0.25 mole of cysteine per mole of enzyme, supporting the hypothesis that the enzyme consists of 4 subunits.

The extracellular cellulolytic enzymes of the thermophilic anaerobe Clostridium thermocellum occur as a protein complex or aggregate known as the cellulosome. By using a combination of ion-exchange, adsorption and hydrophobic-interaction chromatography, it was possible to isolate from extracellular broth a specific endoglucanase of interest without the use of denaturants. The endoglucanase was identified as the cellulosomal subunit Ss by the use of specific antibodies. The enzyme has an Mr of 83,000, an isoelectric point of 3.55, optimum pH of 6.6 and optimum temperature of 70 degrees C. It hydrolyses CM-cellulose and, at a higher rate, the cellodextrins, cellotetraose and cellopentaose, but does not hydrolyse a crystalline cellulose such as Avicel. Cellobiose and cellotriose are also immune to attack. It differs from endoglucanases previously isolated by others and a 76,000-Mr endoglucanase recently isolated in this laboratory.
