In this study, Talaromyces purpureogenus NSA20 as phytase-producing marine fungus was isolated and identified morphologically and genetically and deposited in Gene Bank with accession number MW031769.1. One factor at a time (OFAT) optimization was performed, where the result revealed that potato peel waste (1.5%) as a substrate was the highest for phytase production at 6 days, where the maximum activity of phytase was 138.4 U/ml. Moreover, Box–Behnken design as response surface methodology was carried out for statistical optimization of phytase production by T. purpureogenus NSA20. Statistical optimization illustrated that the optimized medium for phytase production increased 1.57 fold compared to the OFAT optimized medium. Partial purification of phytase was carried out, where the enzyme after precipitation with ammonium sulfate (80%) was 2.6-fold purified phytase, and the yield was 39.8 %., the specific activity was 31.19 U/mg proteins. Additionally, partially purified phytase was characterized; the maximum activity of phytase at Fe++ 0.1% and pH 5.5 at 37 oC was 350 U/ml. Eventually, phytase was applied for crystal violet and methyl red decolorization, where decolorization percentages of crystal violet and methyl red were 85.5% and 75% at 120 min, respectively.

Telefax: 362 - 3388 DOI: https://doi.org/10.33017/RevECIPeru2013.0007/ Resumen Las alfa amilasas son las enzimas más estudiadas e importantes en el campo biotecnológico e industrial; ya que han reemplazado por completo la hidrólisis química del almidón. Estas enzimas son imprescindibles en la elaboración de productos alimenticios, combustibles, medicamentos y detergentes con la finalidad de optimizar procesos y conservar el medio ambiente. La α-amilasa puede ser purificada de diferentes organismos como plantas, animales, hongos y bacterias; actualmente un gran número de α-amilasas bacterianas en especial del género Bacillus están disponibles comercialmente y son las más utilizadas en las industrias. Sin embargo, la producción de éstas no satisfacen los requerimientos industriales en el mundo; ya que, la demanda de esta enzima se ha incrementado en los últimos dos años y el empleo de α-amilasas bacterianas ha provocado alergias afectando al 15% de la población a nivel mundial. . En este estudio, como fuente de α-amilasa se emplearon semillas de Chenopodium quinoa (quinua) var hualhuas blanca durante el proceso de germinación; esta enzima fue parcialmente purificada por precipitación con sulfato de amonio obteniendo una actividad específica final de 35.60U/mg y un grado de purificación de 5 veces. La purificación fue confirmada por SDS-PAGE, encontrando un peso molecular de 44kDa. La actividad enzimática se evaluó mediante el método de Miller mostrando máxima actividad a pH 7 y a temperatura de 37ºC. La linealización de Lineweaver-Burk nos dio un Km de 16mg/mL y Vmax de 100µM de maltosa/min. Por lo tanto, esta caracterización reúne los pre-requisitos necesarios para la aplicación en la industria. Descriptores: Chenopodium quinoa, alfa amilasa, germinación, purificación parcial. Abstract The alpha amylases are the enzymes most studied and important in biotechnology and industry; because they have completely replaced the starch’s chemical hydrolysis. These enzymes are essential in the food production, medicines and detergents in order to optimize processes and conserve the environment. The α-amylase can be isolated from different organisms such as plants, animals, fungi and bacteria, now a large number of bacterial α-amylases especially from genus Bacillus are commercially available and they are the most used in industry. However, the production of these do not meet industry requirements in the world, because the demand for this enzyme has increased in the last two years and the use of bacterial α-amilase has caused allergies affecting the 15% of the global population. In this study, as a source of α-amylase used the seeds from Chenopodium quinoa (quinoa). Var. white hualhuas during the germination process, this enzyme was partially purified by ammonium sulfate precipitation to obtain a final specific activity of 35.60U/mg, and a grade of purification of 5 times. The purification was confirmed by SDS-PAGE, where the molecular weight was 44kDa. The enzyme activity was evaluated by Miller method showing maximum activity at pH 7 and 37ºC. The Lineweaver-Burk linearization shows a Km of 16mg/mL and Vmax of 100μM the maltose / min. Therefore, these characterizations meet the prerequisites need for industry.

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.

Beta-glucosidase is an enzyme that catalyzes the hydrolysis of the glycosidic bonds of cellobiose, resulting in the production of glucose, which is an important step for the effective utilization of cellulose. In the present study, a thermostable β-glucosidase was isolated and purified from the Thermoprotei Thermofilum sp. ex4484_79 and subjected to enzymatic and structural characterization. The purified β-glucosidase (TsBGL) exhibited maximum activity at 90°C and pH 5.0 and displayed maximum specific activity of 139.2μmol/min/mgzne against p-nitrophenyl β-D-glucopyranoside (pNPGlc) and 24.3μmol/min/mgzen against cellobiose. Furthermore, TsBGL exhibited a relatively high thermostability, retaining 84 and 47% of its activity after incubation at 85°C for 1.5h and 90°C for 1.5h, respectively. The crystal structure of TsBGL was resolved at a resolution of 2.14Å, which revealed a classical (α/β)8-barrel catalytic domain. A structural comparison of TsBGL with other homologous proteins revealed that its catalytic sites included Glu210 and Glu414. We provide the molecular structure of TsBGL and the possibility of improving its characteristics for potential applications in industries.

Tannase plays a crucial role in many fields, such as the pharmaceutical industry, beverage processing, and brewing. Although many tannases derived from bacteria and fungi have been thoroughly studied, those with good pH stabilities are still less reported. In this work, a mangrove-derived yeast strain Rhodosporidium diobovatum Q95, capable of efficiently degrading tannin, was screened to induce tannase, which exhibited an activity of up to 26.4 U/mL after 48 h cultivation in the presence of 15 g/L tannic acid. The tannase coding gene TANRD was cloned and expressed in Yarrowia lipolytica. The activity of recombinant tannase (named TanRd) was as high as 27.3 U/mL. TanRd was purified by chromatography and analysed by SDS-PAGE, showing a molecular weight of 75.1 kDa. The specific activity of TanRd towards tannic acid was 676.4 U/mg. Its highest activity was obtained at 40 °C, with more than 70% of the activity observed at 25–60 °C. Furthermore, it possessed at least 60% of the activity in a broad pH range of 2.5–6.5. Notably, TanRd was excellently stable at a pH range from 3.0 to 8.0; over 65% of its maximum activity remained after incubation. Besides, the broad substrate specificity of TanRd to esters of gallic acid has attracted wide attention. In view of the above, tannase resources were developed from mangrove-derived yeasts for the first time in this study. This tannase can become a promising material in tannin biodegradation and gallic acid production.

Abstractβ-Glucosidases are important in the formation of floral tea aroma and the development of resistance to pathogens and herbivores in tea plants. A novel β-glucosidase was purified 117-fold to homogeneity, with a yield of 1.26%, from tea leaves by chilled acetone and ammonium sulfate precipitation, ion exchange chromatography (CM-Sephadex C-50) and fast protein liquid chromatography (FPLC; Superdex 75, Resource S). The enzyme was a monomeric protein with specific activity of 2.57 U/mg. The molecular mass of the enzyme was estimated to be about 41 kDa and 34 kDa by SDS-PAGE and FPLC gel filtration on Superdex 200, respectively. The enzyme showed optimum activity at 50 °C and was stable at temperatures lower than 40 °C. It was active between pH 4.0 and pH 7.0, with an optimum activity at pH 5.5, and was fairly stable from pH 4.5 to pH 8.0. The enzyme showed maximum activity towards pNPG, low activity towards pNP-Galacto, and no activity towards pNP-Xylo.

Human erythrocytes contain a phosphatase that is highly specific for phosphoglycollate. It shows optimum pH of 6.7 and has Km 1 mM for phosphoglycollate. The molecular weight appears to be about 72000. The enzyme is a dimeric molecule having subunits of mol. wt. about 35000. It could be purified approx. 4000-fold up to a specific activity of 5.98 units/mg of protein. The activity of the enzyme is Mg2+-dependent. Co2+, and to a smaller extent Mn2+, may substitute for Mg2+. Half-maximum inhibition of the phosphatase by 5,5′-dithiobis-(2-nitrobenzoate), EDTA and NaF is obtained at 0.5 microM, 1 mM and 4 mM respectively. Moreover, it needs a univalent cation for optimum activity. Phosphoglycollate phosphatase is a cytoplasmic enzyme. Approx. 5% of its total activity is membrane-associated. This part of activity can be approx. 70% solubilized by freezing, thawing and treatment with 0.25% Triton X-100.

Abstract In this present study, lipase producing bacteria were isolated and screened from an indigenous soil sample and was used for lipase production with high enzyme activity. Different production media were screened and lipase production was found to be induced by olive oil, 14 mL/L, in the production medium. It was observed from Luedeking and Piret model that the lipase production was mixed growth associated with its maximum activity at 37 °C and pH 7. To understand the interaction of different parameters, statistical optimization using Response Surface Methodology was performed and the standardized conditions obtained were as follows: Peptone 10 g/L, yeast extract 7.5 g/L and olive oil 14 mL/L. The predicted data were validated and the model predicted was significant with maximum specific activity of 1.1 µmole/min/mg proteins. The lipase specific activity was found to be enhanced by 10% and 23% after a single parameter and statistical optimization respectively.

The lipolytic activities of 300 Streptomyces isolates were determined in Tributyrin and Rhodamine-B Agar. Lipase activities were also measured with p-nitrophenyl palmitate (p-NPP) as a substrate. The strain of Streptomyces bambergiensis OC 25-4 used in this study was selected among 300 strains of Streptomyces from MUCC as the best lipase producer. The incubation conditions were optimized and the inoculum amount, incubation period, effect of carbon and nitrogen sources, and rates of MgSO4 and CaCO3 were investigated. LipSB 25-4 (the lipase produced by S. bambergiensis OC 25-4 strain) was partially purified with ammonium sulphate precipitation, dialysis, and gel filtration chromatography 2.73-fold and with 92.12 U/mg specific activity. The optimal pH and temperature for LipSB 25-4 were determined as 8.0 and 50°C, respectively. The lipase has high stability in all pH and temperature values used in this study. While LipSB 25-4 was slightly activated in the presence of β-mercaptoethanol, it was slightly reduced by PMSF. The enzyme conserved approximately 75% of its activity at the end of 60 h, in the presence of methanol and ethanol. Since LipSB 25-4 displays high activity in the thermophilic conditions and stability in the presence of organic solvents, this lipase can catalyse the biodiesel production from olive oil by the transesterification reactions.
