Rhamnogalacturonan lyase (RGL) cleaves backbone α-1,4 glycosidic bonds between L-rhamnose and D-galacturonic acid residues in type I rhamnogalacturonan (RG-I) by β-elimination to generate RG oligosaccharides with various degrees of polymerization. Here, we cloned, expressed, purified and biochemically characterized two RGLs (Bo3128 and Bo4416) in the PL11 family from Bacteroides ovatus ATCC 8483. Bo3128 and Bo4416 displayed maximal activity at pH 9.5 and pH 6.5, respectively. Whereas the activity of Bo3128 could be increased 1.5 fold in the presence of 5 mM Ca2+, Bo4416 required divalent metal ions to show any enzymatic activity. Both of RGLs showed a substrate preference for RG-I compared to other pectin domains. Bo4416 and Bo3128 primarily yielded unsaturated RG oligosaccharides, with Bo3128 also producing them with short side chains, with yields of 32.4 and 62.4%, respectively. Characterization of both RGLs contribute to the preparation of rhamnogalacturonan oligosaccharides, as well as for the analysis of the fine structure of RG-I pectins.

Three proteinases were isolated from culture medium of Pseudomonas fluorescens INIA 745 and purified to homogeneity by a combination of Phenyl-Sepharose, DEAE-Sepharose, and Sephadex G-100 chromatography. Optimal temperature for enzymatic activity was 45°C for all three proteinases. The pH optimum of proteinases I and II was found to be 7.0, while that of proteinase III was 8.0. Divalent metal ions like Cu2+, Co2+, Zn2+, Fe2+, and Hg2+ were inhibitory to proteinase activity while Ca2+, Mg2+, and Mn2+ had little or no inhibitory effect. The three enzymes were strongly inhibited by EDTA and 1,10-phenantroline and partially by cysteine. The three enzymes are metalloproteinases since they were inhibited by chelators and reactivated by Co2+, Mn2+, Cu2+, and Zn2+. The Km values of proteinases I, II, and III for casein were calculated to be 3.2, 2.6, and 5.2 mg/ml, respectively. Proteinases II and III rapidly degraded β-casein, with preference to αs1-casein, whereas proteinase I hydrolyzed both casein fractions at a slow rate.

A gene encoding a thermotolerant lipase with broad pH was isolated from an AntarcticPseudomonasstrain AMS3. The recombinant lipase AMS3 was purified by single-step purification using affinity chromatography, yielding a purification fold of approximately 1.52 and a recovery of 50%. The molecular weight was approximately ∼60 kDa including the strep and affinity tags. Interestingly, the purified Antarctic AMS3 lipase exhibited broad temperature profile from 10–70 °C and stable over a broad pH range from 5.0 to pH 10.0. Various mono and divalent metal ions increased the activity of the AMS3 lipase, but Ni2+decreased its activity. The purified lipase exhibited the highest activity in the presence of sunflower oil. In addition, the enzyme activity in 25% v/v solvents at 50 °C particularly to n-hexane, DMSO and methanol could be useful for catalysis reaction in organic solvent and at broad temperature.

Multicopper oxidases (MCOs) represent a diverse family of enzymes that catalyze the oxidation of either an organic or a metal substrate with concomitant reduction of dioxygen to water. These enzymes contain variable numbers of cupredoxin domains, two, three or six per subunit, and rely on four copper ions, a single type I copper and three additional copper ions organized in a trinuclear cluster (TNC), with one type II and two type III copper ions, to catalyze the reaction. Here, two crystal structures and the enzymatic characterization of Marinithermus hydrothermalis MCO, a two-domain enzyme, are reported. This enzyme decolorizes Congo Red dye at 70°C in the presence of high halide concentrations and may therefore be useful in the detoxification of industrial waste that contains dyes. In two distinct crystal structures, MhMCO forms the trimers seen in other two-domain MCOs, but differs from these enzymes in that four trimers interact to create a dodecamer. This dodecamer of MhMCO forms a closed ball-like structure and has implications for the sequestration of bound divalent metal ions as well as substrate accessibility. In each subunit of the dodecameric structures, a Trp residue, Trp351, located between the type I and TNC sites exists in two distinct conformations, consistent with a potential role in facilitating electron transfer in the enzyme.

The synthesis and electronic structure of bis(imino)pyridine (I2P) complexes of the divalent metal ions, Zn(ii) and Mg(ii) are reported, and a correlation between the ligand Cim–Cpy bond lengths with the ligand torsion angle is described. Structural comparison with a new complex of Al(iii) and previously reported Al(iii) complexes is included.

The β-glucosidase from Alcaligenes faecalis has been purified to homogeneity (880-fold purification, 11% yield) using a combination of classical techniques and medium pressure ion-exchange chromatography. It is a dimeric enzyme of monomer molecular weight 50 000 and has no specific requirement for divalent metal ions. It has a high specificity for β-glucosides and hydrolyses a wide variety of different chemical types with retention of configuration at the anomeric centre. It has no exo-β-1,4-glucanase activity. It is reversibly inhibited by a variety of sugars which have been shown previously to be very active against glucosidases, suggesting a normal mechanism of action. Measured Km values for cellobiose and p-nitrophenyl β-D-glucopyranoside are quite low (0.70 and 0.08 mM, respectively), making this a good choice for cocloning into a cellulase system optimized for glucose production.
