Abstract Background Due to the multitude industrial applications of ligninolytic enzymes, their demands are increasing. Partial purification and intensive characterization of contemporary highly acidic laccase enzyme produced by an Egyptian local isolate designated Alcaligenes faecalis NYSO were studied in the present investigation. Results Alcaligenes faecalis NYSO laccase has been partially purified and intensively biochemically characterized. It was noticed that 40–60% ammonium sulfate saturation showed maximum activity. A protein band with an apparent molecular mass of ~ 50 kDa related to NYSO laccase was identified through SDS-PAGE and zymography. The partially purified enzyme exhibited maximum activity at 55 °C and pH suboptimal (2.5–5.0). Remarkable activation for enzyme activity was recognized after 10-min exposure to temperatures (T) 50, 60, and 70 °C; time elongation caused inactivation, where ~ 50% of activity was lost after a 7-h exposure to 60 °C. Some metal ions Cu2+, Zn2+, Co2+, Ni2+, Mn2+, Cd2+, Cr2+, and Mg2+ caused strong stimulation for enzyme activity, but Fe2+ and Hg2+ reduced the activity. One millimolar of chelating agents [ethylenediamine tetraacetic acid (EDTA), sodium citrate, and sodium oxalate] caused strong activation for enzyme activity. Sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), cysteine-HCl, dithiothreitol (DTT), β-mercaptoethanol, thioglycolic acid, and sodium azide caused strong inhibition for NYSO laccase activity even at low concentration. One millimolar of urea, imidazole, kojic acid, phenylmethylsulfonyl fluoride (PMSF), H2O2, and Triton X-100 caused activation. The partially purified NYSO laccase had decolorization activity towards different dyes such as congo red, crystal violet, methylene blue, fast green, basic fuchsin, bromophenol blue, malachite green, bromocresol purple eriochrome black T, and Coomassie Brilliant Blue R-250 with various degree of degradation. Also, it had a vast range of substrate specificity including lignin, but with high affinity towards p-anisidine. Conclusion The promising properties of the newly studied laccase enzyme from Alcaligenes faecalis NYSO strain would support several industries such as textile, food, and paper and open the possibility for commercial use in water treatment. It will also open the door to new applications due to its ligninolytic properties in the near future.

The effect of physical parameters such as temperature and pH on the production, activity, and stability of α-amylase from Bacillus subtilis V37 was investigated. The results indicated that the optimum culture conditions for enzyme activity were pH 7.0 and 35 oC. The optimum pH and temperature for enzyme activity were 6.0 and 70 oC. The crude enzyme was found to be stable in the pH range of 5.0 to 7.0. The enzyme was stable for 1 h at a temperature from 30 to 80 oC; nearly 100% of enzyme activity remained at temperatures of 30 - 40 oC, and about 34% of original activity remained at a temperature of 80 oC. These features demonstrated that α-amylase from B. subtilis V37 can be applied in many areas such as the food, fermentation, and animal feed industries.

ABSTRACT The Bacillus subtilis genome contains several sets of paralogs. An extreme case is the four putative malic enzyme genes maeA, malS, ytsJ, and mleA. maeA was demonstrated to encode malic enzyme activity, to be inducible by malate, but also to be dispensable for growth on malate. We report systematic experiments to test whether these four genes ensure backup or cover different functions. Analysis of single- and multiple-mutant strains demonstrated that ytsJ has a major physiological role in malate utilization for which none of the other three genes could compensate. In contrast, maeA, malS, and mleA had distinct roles in malate utilization for which they could compensate one another. The four proteins exhibited malic enzyme activity; MalS, MleA, and MaeA exhibited 4- to 90-fold higher activities with NAD+ than with NADP+. YtsJ activity, in contrast, was 70-fold higher with NADP+ than with NAD+, with Km values of 0.055 and 2.8 mM, respectively. lacZ fusions revealed strong transcription of ytsJ, twofold higher in malate than in glucose medium, but weak transcription of malS and mleA. In contrast, mleA was strongly transcribed in complex medium. Metabolic flux analysis confirmed the major role of YtsJ in malate-to-pyruvate interconversion. While overexpression of the NADP-dependent Escherichia coli malic enzyme MaeB did not suppress the growth defect of a ytsJ mutant on malate, overexpression of the transhydrogenase UdhA from E. coli partially suppressed it. These results suggest an additional physiological role of YtsJ beyond that of malate-to-pyruvate conversion.

Abstract The present study investigated the effect of Bacillus subtilis DSM 29784 (Ba) and enzymes (xylanase and β-glucanases; Enz), alone or in combination (BE) as antibiotic replacements, on the growth performance, digestive enzyme activity, immune response and the intestinal barrier of broiler chickens. In total, 1200 1-d-old broilers were randomly assigned to five dietary treatments, each with six replicate pens of forty birds for 63 d as follows: (a) basal diet (control), supplemented with (b) 1 × 109 colony-forming units (cfu)/kg Ba, (c) 300 mg/kg Enz, (d) 1 × 109 cfu/kg Ba and 300 mg/kg Enz and (e) 250 mg/kg enramycin (ER). Ba, Enz and BE, similar to ER, decreased the feed conversion rate, maintained intestinal integrity with a higher villus height:crypt depth ratio and increased the numbers of goblet cells. The BE group exhibited higher expression of claudin-1 and mucin 2 than the other four groups. BE supplementation significantly increased the α-diversity and β-diversity of the intestinal microbiota and markedly enhanced lipase activity in the duodenal mucosa. Serum endotoxin was significantly decreased in the BE group. Compared with those in the control group, increased superoxide dismutase and glutathione peroxidase activities were observed in the jejunal mucosa of the Ba and BE groups, respectively. In conclusion, the results suggested that dietary treatment with Ba, Enz or BE has beneficial effects on growth performance and anti-oxidative capacity, and BE had better effects than Ba or Enz alone on digestive enzyme activity and the intestinal microbiota. Ba or Enz could be used as an alternative to antibiotics for broiler chickens.

In this study, the Micrococcus luteus K-3 glutaminase was successfully over-expressed in the GRAS (Generally Recognized as Safe) Bacillus subtilis strain 168 by integration of the Mglu gene in the 16S rDNA locus. This was done in order to screen a strain producing high levels of recombinant glutaminase from the selected candidates. The transcription of the glutaminase genes in the B. subtilis 168 chromosome and the expression of glutaminase protein was further assessed by qPCR, SDS-PAGE analysis and an enzyme activity assay. To further increase the production of glutaminase, the nprB and nprE genes, which encode specific proteases, were disrupted by integration of the Mglu gene. After continuous cell culturing without the addition of antibiotics, the integrated recombinant strains showed excellent genetic stability, demonstrating favorable industrialization potential. After the fermentation temperature was optimized, a 5-L bioreactor was used for fed-batch fermentation of the recombinant glutaminase producing strain at 24 °C, and the highest enzyme activity achieved was approximately 357.6 U/mL.

Abstract MANB36, a secrete endo-β-1,4-D-mannanase produced by Bacillus subtilis B36, was puri­fied to homogeneity from a culture supernatant and characterized. The optimum pH value for the mannanase activity of MANB36 is 6.4 and the optimum temperature is 50 °C. The enzyme activity of MANB36 is remarkably thermostable at 60 °C and the specific activity of MANB36 is 927.84 U/mg. Metal cations (except Hg2+ and Ag+), EDTA and 2-mercaptoetha- nol (2-ME) have no effects on enzyme activity. This enzyme exhibits high specificity with the substituted galactomannan locust bean gum (LBG). The gene encoding for MANB36, manB36, was cloned by PCR and sequenced. manB36 contains a single open reading frame (ORF) consisting of 1104 bp that encodes a protein of 367 amino acids. The predicted mo­lecular weight of 38.13 kDa, calculated by the deduced protein of the gene manB36 without signal peptide, coincides with the apparent molecular weight of 38.0 kDa of the purified MANB36 estimated by SDS-PAGE. The mature protein of MANB36 has been expressed in Escherichia coli BL21 and the expressed mannanase has normal bioactivity.
