The aim of this experimental study was to isolate and partially purify protease enzyme from Bacillus cereus and Bacillus subtilis. Protease enzyme is obtained by inducing spore genesis of bacteria from Bacillus species in suitable nutrient plates. The partial purification was realized by applying, respectively, ammonium sulfate precipitation, dialysis, and DEAE-cellulose ion-exchange chromatography to the supernatant that was produced later. Optimum pH, optimum temperature, pH stability, and temperature stability were determined, as well as the effects of pH, temperature, substrate concentration, reaction time, and inhibitors and activators on enzyme activity. In addition, the molecular mass of the obtained enzyme was investigated by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE). The specific activity of partially purified enzyme from B. subtilis was determined to be 84 U/mg. The final enzyme preparation was eight-fold more pure than the crude homogenate. The molecular mass of the partially purified enzyme was found to be 45 kDa by using SDS-PAGE. The protease enzyme that was partially purified from B. cereus was purified 1.2-fold after ammonium sulfate precipitation. The molecular mass of the partially purified enzyme was determined to be 37 kDa by using SDS-PAGE. 相似文献

Alkaline pectin lyase (PNL) shows potential as a biological control agent against several plant diseases. We isolated and characterized a new Bacillus clausii strain that can produce 4,180?U/g of PNL using sugar beet pulp as a carbon source and inducer. The PNL was purified to apparent homogeneity using ultrafiltration, ammonium sulfate fractionation, DEAE Sepharose Fast Flow, and Sephadex G-75 gel filtration. The purified PNL was found to be a monomeric protein with a molecular weight of 35?kDa, as determined by sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE). It demonstrated optimal activity with K m of 0.87?mg/ml at pH?10.0 and 60?°C. The enzyme is stable in the pH range of 8.0?C10.0 and temperature ??40?°C. Ca2+ was found to stimulate the enzymatic activity of the PNL by up to 410?%. Mass spectrometric results gave 38?% match coverage with pectate lyase from B. clausii KSM-K16 (gi|56961845). The PNL was found to elicit disease resistance in cucumber seedlings, suggesting that it may have applications in biocontrol and sustainable agriculture. 相似文献

In a recent screening for thermophilic bacteria from Azores hot springs, a Bacillus sp strain 3M, exhibiting cellulase-free extracellular xylanolitic activity, was isolated. Further enzyme characterization from liquid cultures grown on birchwood xylan revealed that the endo-l,4-βxylanase retains 100% of activity for at least 3 d at 55°C. At 80°C, it retains 47% of its maximal activity, and the enzyme is still active at 90°C. The optimum pH of the enzyme has a broad pH range, between 6.0 and 7.5, and it is remarkably active for the alkaline region, exhibiting 89% of relative activity at pH 9.O. The enzyme was partially inactivated by different divalent metal ions. Because of its tolerance for high temperature and pH conditions, and the absence of contaminating cellulase activity, the xylanase produced byBacillus sp 3M appears to be attractive for use in the pulp and paper industry. Indeed, the efficiency of the enzyme application to the kraftEucalyptus pulp was studied for bleaching pretreatment, resulting in a moderate increase of pulp bleachability. 相似文献

A phytochemical investigation of the leaves of the medicinal plant Isodon rubescens led to the isolation of the two new degraded abietane lactone diterpenoids rubesanolides F (1) and G (2). Their structures were elucidated based on the analyses of the HRESIMS and 1D/2D NMR spectral data, and their absolute configurations were determined by ECD spectrum calculations and X-ray single crystal diffraction methods. Compounds 1 and 2, with a unique γ-lactone subgroup between C-8 and C-20, were found to form a carbonyl carbon at C-13 by removal of the isopropyl group in an abietane diterpene skeleton. Rubesanolide G (2) is a rare case of abietane that possesses a cis-fused configuration between rings B and C. The two isolates were evaluated for their biological activities against two cancer cell lines (A549 and HL60), three fungal strains (Candida alba, Aspergillus niger and Rhizopus nigricans) and three bacterial strains (Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus and Bacillus subtilis). 相似文献

A steady-state system involving the photolysis of NO2 in an excess of I2 as a source of IO radicals has been used to study the reaction IO + DMS in 760 Torr N2 at 296 K. IO radicals were found to react rapidly with DMS, one molecule of DMSO being produced for each molecule of DMS consumed. Numerical analysis of the experimental results yielded a rate constant of (3.0 ± 1.5) × 10?11 cm3 s?1 for the reaction IO + DMS → DMSO + I. 相似文献

Recycling of civic paper waste by enzyme-based technology is nowadays a point of much concern for pollution-less green environment. In this study, the deinking effectiveness of purified xylanase from a newly isolated bacterium was evaluated for recycling of laser jet paper waste. A potent xylanases-producing bacterium from the microbial consortia of termite gut was isolated, which was further identified on the basis of 16S rRNA sequence as Bacillus sp. CKBx1D. In submerged fermentation condition, the isolate produced the highest level of xylanase (480?U/ml) at 36?h of growth. The extracellular xylanase system comprises of three distinct isozymes (est. Mw 35.28, 28.63, 18.94?kDa). The deinking of laser printed paper waste was performed using the purified enzyme mixture. Whole operational parameters were optimized using the Response Surface Methodology; it was found that at pH 6.8 with 47.2?h of continuous shaking at constant temperature of 35?°C, enzymes showed best deinking activity. After enzyme treatment, the physical properties of the pulp like brightness and ERIC (effective residual ink content) values were enhanced, whereas the pulp opacity was more reduced than the control treatment. Hence, the bacterial isolate and its xylanolytic enzyme system could efficiently be used in recycling paper waste as deinking agent. 相似文献

Rapid, hyphenated detection techniques involving a gas chromatograph (GC) coupled to a classical time-of-flight ion mobility
(IMS) spectrometer, or more recently, to a micro-machined, miniature differential ion mobility spectrometer (DMS) are quite
attractive for in-situ detection of many kinds of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) of concern and notably of natural contaminants appearing in
the headspaces of selected foodstuff. This work aims at a rapid detection, identification and quantification of geosmin in
the headspace of grape must and of wine. Samples of white and red wines have both been analyzed with a hyphenated GC/DMS and
by Solid Phase Micro-Extraction (SPME) coupled to GC/MS taken as a reference. The detection of geosmin at concentrations below
the human olfactory threshold of 50 ng/L has been demonstrated. 相似文献

Bacillus mycoides S122C was identified as carboxymethyl cellulase (CMcellulase)-producing bacteria from the Azorean Bacillus collection (Lab collection), which was isolated from local soil samples. The bacteria was identified by 16S rRNA sequence and designated as B. mycoides S122C. NCBI blast analysis showed that the B. mycoides S122C 16S rRNA sequence has high identity compared to other B. mycoides strains. CMcellulase was purified from the culture filtrates using anion-exchange chromatography. After mono-Q purification, the protein folds and recovery were 13.7 and 0.76?%, respectively. SDS-PAGE analysis showed that the molecular weight of the purified CMcellulase protein was estimated to be about 62?kDa and that it was composed of a single subunit. MALDI-MS/MS analysis yielded each four peptides of the purified protein; it has identity to other cellulases. The purified CMcellulase showed high activity with CMcellulose followed by ??-glucan as a substrate. Optimum temperature and pH for the purified CMcellulase activity were found to be at 50?°C and pH?7.0, respectively. The purified CMcellulase was stable with about 60?% activity in broad pH ranges from 5 to 10 and temperature of 40 to 60?°C. However, purified CMcellulase was stable at about 70?% at 70?°C and also stable overall at 78?% for surfactants. CMcellulase activity was inhibited by ions such as HgCl2, followed by CuSo4, FeCl2, and MnCl2, while CoCl2 activated CMcellulase activity. The purified CMcellulase activity was strongly inhibited by EDTA. 相似文献

The evolution of dimethylsulphide (DMS) and dimethylsulphoniopropionate (DMSP) concentrations in the water and sediment of the Venice lagoon were studied together with the concentration of chlorophyll a, temperature and the composition and density of phytoplankton to understand the role of the sediment as a source of DMS during the winter period. The temporal trend of water DMS concentration in this period showed a maximum concentration in February (75.7 nmol S l-1) related to low DMSP and chlorophyll a concentrations but to high phytoplanktonic abundance. The DMS and DMSP concentrations were greater in the sediment than in the water. The temporal trend of DMS concentration in sediment showed a maximum in February (1155 nmol S l-1) related to the maximum of DMS concentration in surface water. These observations suggested that in the winter period DMS could be produced by the conversion of the DMSP present in the bulk water but principally by that present in the sediment (microbiological degradation of DMSP or other sulphur-containing compounds) that subsequently diffuse in water. 相似文献

The present study aimed at reducing the pollution of the waste generated by the potato starch industry to the environment and transform the potato pulp and wastewater into single-cell protein (SCP) to be used as animal feed. The chemical oxygen demand of the wastewater was reduced from 26,700 to 9,100 mg/L by batch fermentation with mixed cultures in an aerated 10-L fermenter. The SCP products, with a crude protein content of 46.09 % (higher than soybean meal), were found palatable and safe for mice. During the treatment process, the microbial community was analyzed using the terminal restriction fragment length polymorphism for bacterial 16S rRNA genes. The results of the analysis suggested that Curacaobacter/Pseudoalteromonas and Paenibacillus/Bacillus were the main microorganisms in treating potato starch processing wastes. The 150-m3-scale fermentation demonstrated a potential for treatment in industrial applications. Fermentation of potato pulp and wastewater without adding an extra nitrogen source was a novel approach in treating the potato starch processing waste. 相似文献

An extracellular l-asparaginase produced by a protease-deficient isolate, Bacillus aryabhattai ITBHU02, was purified to homogeneity using ammonium sulfate fractionation and subsequent column chromatography on diethylaminoethyl-Sepharose fast flow and Seralose CL-6B. The enzyme was purified 68.9-fold with specific activity of 680.47 U mg?1. The molecular weight of the purified enzyme was approximately 38.8 kDa on SDS-PAGE and 155 kDa on native PAGE gel as well as gel filtration column revealing that the enzyme was a homotetramer. The optimum activity of purified l-asparaginase was achieved at pH 8.5 and temperature 40 °C. Kinetic studies depicted that the K m, V max, and k cat values of the enzyme were 0.257 mM, 1.537 U μg?1, and 993.93 s?1, respectively. Circular dichroism spectroscopy has showed that the enzyme belonged to α?+?β class of proteins with approximately 74 % α-helices and 12 % β-sheets. BLASTP analysis of N-terminal sequence K-T-I-I-E-A-V-P-E-L-K-K-I-A of purified l-asparaginase had shown maximum similarity with Bacillus megaterium DSM 319. In vitro cytotoxicity assays with HL60 and MOLT-4 cell lines indicated that the l-asparaginase has significant antineoplastic properties. 相似文献

Bacillus mojavensis B0621A was isolated from a pearl oyster Pinctada martensii collected from South China Sea. While screening for cyclic lipopeptides potentially useful as lead compounds for biological control against soil-bone fungal plant pathogens, three lipopeptides were isolated and purified from the fermentation broth of B. mojavensis B0621A via vacuum flash chromatography coupled with reversed-phase high performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC). The structural characterization and identification of these cyclic lipopeptides were performed by tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) combined with gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) analysis as well as chemical degradation. These lipopeptides were finally characterized as homologues of mojavensins, which contained identical amino acids back bones of asparagine1, tyrosine2, asparagine3, glutamine4, proline5, asparagine6, and asparagine7 and differed from each other by their saturated β-amino fatty acid chain residues, namely, iso-C14 mojavensin, iso-C16 mojavensin, and anteiso-C17 mojavensin, respectively. All lipopeptide isomers, especially iso-C16 mojavensin and anteiso-C17 mojavensin, displayed moderate antagonism and dose-dependent activity against several formae speciales of Fusarium oxysporum and presented surface tension activities. These properties demonstrated that the lipopeptides produced by B. mojavensis B0621A may be useful as biological control agent to fungal plant pathogens. 相似文献

Modern differential mobility spectrometers (DMS) produce complex and multi-dimensional data streams that allow for near-real-time or post-hoc chemical detection for a variety of applications. An active area of interest for this technology is metabolite monitoring for biological applications, and these data sets regularly have unique technical and data analysis end user requirements. While there are initial publications on how investigators have individually processed and analyzed their DMS metabolomic data, there are no user-ready commercial or open source software packages that are easily used for this purpose. We have created custom software uniquely suited to analyze gas chromatograph / differential mobility spectrometry (GC/DMS) data from biological sources. Here we explain the implementation of the software, describe the user features that are available, and provide an example of how this software functions using a previously-published data set. The software is compatible with many commercial or home-made DMS systems. Because the software is versatile, it can also potentially be used for other similarly structured data sets, such as GC/GC and other IMS modalities. 相似文献

The temporal evolution of concentrations of dimethylsulphide (DMS), its precursor dimethylsulphoniopropionate (DMSP) and chlorophyll a is surveyed weekly in the water column and in a landfast ice core at a coastal station of Gerlache Inlet (Terra Nova Bay, Antarctica) from 27 November 2000 to 14 February 2001. The DMS and DMSP profile concentrations in the water column are similar and show a clear temporal trend, with minimum values (<0.7?nM) at all depths occurring on 27 November 2000 and maximum values (4.8 × 102?nM for DMS and 1.8 × 102?nM for DMSP) in surface water on 27 December 2000 for DMS and on 19 December 2000 for DMSP. When the sea-ice cover is present, the temporal evolution of DMSP closely follows that of chlorophyll a in the water column, supporting the idea that DMSP, and therefore DMS, has a phytoplanktonic origin. However, when the ice cover breaks up during the late austral summer, a second phytoplankton bloom occurs, while the DMSP concentration in the sea-water column remains very low. In the ice core, the results show higher concentrations of DMSP than those of the underlying sea water, highlighting the important role of sea ice in the sulphur cycle of the Antarctic ecosystem. 相似文献

Gas chromatography in combination with electron ionization mass spectrometry (GC/EI-MS) was used to determine the fatty acids of a membrane lipid from Bacillus megaterium. Special attention was put on the structure and absolute configuration of a monoenoic fatty acid previously described in this sample. GC/EI-MS operated in the selected ion monitoring mode was used to determine twelve fatty acids in the bacterium. Methyl esters were prepared to verify the presence of a 14-methylhexadecenoic acid (a17:1) isomer. The position of the double bond of the a17:1 isomer and four further monoenoic fatty acids was elucidated by means of their picolinyl esters produced by the transesterification of the phospholipid. For the a17:1 isomer, the double bond was located between C-5 and C-6. Silver ion liquid chromatography was used to verify that the double bond was in cis-configuration. The bacterial 14-methylhexadec-5-enoic acid (a17:1Δ5) is chiral due to the stereogenic C-14 carbon. Initial enantioselective measurements were carried out with isomers of a17:1Δ5 which were available in form of racemic and (S)-enantiopure cis- and trans-isomers of a17:1Δ12 previously synthesized. The cis-a17:1Δ12 enantiomers were partly resolved on a chiral stationary phase coated with 50% heptakis(6-O-tert.-butyldimethylsilyl-2,3-di-O-methyl)-β-cyclodextrin in OV-1701 (β-TBDM). However, resolution of the enantiomers of the trans-isomer of a17:1Δ12 failed. Only one peak was also observed for the a17:1Δ5 isomer from B. megaterium. Thus, it remained unclear whether the compound a17:1Δ5 was racemic or enantiopure in the sample. To clarify this point, we separated the cis-monoenoic fraction from the saturated fatty acids. Then, the monoenoic fraction was hydrogenated in order to transform a17:1Δ5 into 14-methylhexadecanoic acid (a17:0). This chiral fatty acid was known to be sufficiently enantioseparated on the β-TBDM column and was found to be (S)-enantiopure in the sample. Hence, these measurements verified that the B. megaterium sample contained enantiopure (S)-a17:1Δ5. 相似文献

Electrical transformer oil (ETO) includes as dielectric fluids hazardous compounds such as PAHs and sometimes PCBs, which
are highly toxic and resistant to degradation. Three species of bacteria, belonging to Acinetobacter lwoffii, Bacillus amyloliquefaciens, and Bacillus pumilus, were isolated from waste ETO. Phenotypic and molecular assays revealed a high potential of A. lwoffii for catabolism of phenanthrene and ETO as a sole carbon and energy source. This article reports for the first time the isolation,
identification, and characterization of bacterial diversity hidden in ETO.

A keratinolytic enzyme (KerA1) secreted by a newly isolated Bacillus pumilus strain A1 cultivated in medium containing chicken feather meal was purified and characterized, and the gene was isolated
and sequenced. The molecular mass of the purified enzyme was estimated to be 34,000 Da by sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) polyacrylamide
gel electrophoresis and gel filtration. The optimum pH and temperature for the purified keratinase were 9.0 and 60 °C, respectively,
using keratin as a substrate. KerA1 showed a high stability towards nonionic surfactants. It was found to be relatively stable
toward the strong anionic surfactant (SDS). The deduced amino acid sequence of the keratinase KerA1 differs from both the
organic solvent tolerant protease of B. pumilus 115b and the dehairing protease of B. pumilus UN-31-C-42 by one and nine amino acids, respectively. These results suggest that this keratinase may be a useful alternative
and ecofriendly route for handling the abundant amount of waste feathers and for applications in detergent formulations. 相似文献

Efficient utilization of carbon inputs is critical to the economic viability of the current forest products sector. Input
carbon losses occur in various locations within a pulp mill, including losses as volatile organics and wastewater. Opportunities
exist to capture this carbon in the form of value-added products such as biodegradable polymers. Waste-activated sludge from
a pulp mill wastewater facility was enriched for 80 days for a methanol-utilizing consortium with the goal of using this consortium
to produce biopolymers from methanol-rich pulp mill waste streams. Five enrichment conditions were utilized: three high-methanol
streams from the kraft mill foul condensate system, one methanol-amended stream from the mill wastewater plant, and one methanol-only
enrichment. Enrichment reactors were operated aerobically in sequencing batch mode at neutral pH and 25°C with a hydraulic
residence time and a solids retention time of 4 days. Non-enriched waste activated sludge did not consume methanol or reduce
chemical oxygen demand. With enrichment, however, the chemical oxygen demand reduction over 24-h feed/decant cycles ranged
from 79 to 89%, and methanol concentrations dropped below method detection limits. Neither the non-enriched waste-activated
sludge nor any of the enrichment cultures accumulated polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) under conditions of nitrogen sufficiency.
Similarly, the non-enriched waste activated sludge did not accumulate PHAs under nitrogen-limited conditions. By contrast,
enriched cultures accumulated PHAs to nearly 14% on a dry weight basis under nitrogen-limited conditions. This indicates that
selectively enriched pulp mill waste activated sludge can serve as an inoculum for PHA production from methanol-rich pulp
mill effluents. 相似文献

Phoma exigua var. exigua, a fungal pathogen isolated from Cirsium arvense and Sonchus arvensis, proposed as a biocontrol agent of this noxious perennial weeds, produces in liquid and solid cultures different phytotoxic metabolites with potential herbicidal activity. The phytotoxic cytochalasins B, F, Z2, and Z3 and deoxaphomin were previously identified together with p-hydroxybenzaldehyde. Using spectroscopic methods, four new cytochalasins, termed phomachalasins A-D, were isolated and characterized as three new closely related 26-oxa[16] and one new [15]cytochalasans. They belong to a new subgroup of cytochalasans bearing a 1,2,3,4,6,7-hexasubstituted bicycle[3.2.0]heptene joined to the macrocyclic ring. None of the four new metabolites showed phytotoxic or antimicrobial activity. The lack of both phytotoxic and antimicrobial activities showed by all phomachalasins A-D was probably due to the strong modification of both functionalities and conformational freedom of the macrocyclic ring caused by its junction with the bulky and quite rigid new bicycle, namely bicycle[3.2.0]heptene. 相似文献

A key enzyme for the biosynthesis and bioengineering of heparin, 3-O-sulfotransferase-1 (3-OST-1), was expressed and purified in Gram-positive Bacillus subtilis and Bacillus megaterium. Western blotting, protein sequence analysis, and enzyme activity measurement confirmed the expression. The enzymatic activity of 3-OST-1 expressed in Bacillus species were found to be similar to those found when expressed in Escherichia coli. The endotoxin level in 3-OST-1 from B. subtilis and B. megaterium were 104–105-fold lower than that of the E. coli-expressed 3-OST-1, which makes the Bacillus expression system of particular interest for the generation of pharmaceutical grade raw heparin from nonanimal sources. 相似文献
