난백 lysozyme의 역가측정과 안정성에 관한 연구

Studies on the Activity and Stability of Egg White lysozyme

양이온 교환수지를 이용하며 추출한 난백 lysozyme의 분리방법에 따른 역가측정과 역가 측정방법에 따른 차이를 비교 검토하고 pH와 열에 대한 안정성을 구명하였다. Lysozyme의 역가를 측정하는데 있어서 시료 무게당 lysozyme량으로 정의할 경우는 순도 높은 표준품의 구입이 필요하나 반복에 따른 측정 오차의 범위가 적었다. 반면 시료 무게당 units으로 할 때 오차의 범위는 조금 넓었지만 간편 신속하게 측정할 수 있었다. 난백 lysogyme을 pH6.3인 0.066M 인산염 완충액에 넣어 $37^{\circ}C$에서 2시간동안 항온시켰을 때 Micrococus lysodeiktius의 용균작용이 가장 활발히 일어났다. CM Sephadex C-25로 O.D. 1.0이상의 용액에서 회수한 lysozyme의 역가는 36,000units/mg으로 처리구 중 가장 높았다. 추출 lysozyme은 가열함에 따라 역가가 감소하였으며 인산염 완충액에서 $100^{\circ}C$, 15분간 가열하였을 때 35%이상이 감소하였다. 추출한 lysozyme용액을 pH별로 $100^{\circ}C$에서 15분간 가열했을 때 산성영역에서는 매우 안정되었으나 pH6.0 이상의 알칼리 영역에서 급격히 불활성화 되었다.

Enzymatic activity of isolated Lysozyme from egg white by cation ion-exchange chromatography was detected with various methods and stability of lysozyme in solution was studied by heat and pH treatments. Lysozyme activity refered to mg pure lysozyme/mg sample was more accurate although it needed standard lysozyme. But lysozyme activity refered to units/mg sample could be detected easily and reducted total detection time. Enzymatic activity of isolated lysozyme which dissolved in 0.066M phosphate buffer(pH 6.3) and then incubated at $37^{\circ}C$ for 2hr was increased remarkably on the lysis of Micrococcus lysodeikticus. The activity of isolated lysozyme by CM Sephadex C-25 was higher in eluting solution of above O. D. 1.0 at 640nm and attained 36, 000 units/mg solid. The stability of isolated lysozyme was decreased by various heat treatment. Activity began to decrease above 6$0^{\circ}C$ and dropped rapidly at $100^{\circ}C$. Especially, 35% loss of activity occured in 0.066M phosphate buffer at $100^{\circ}C$. for 15min. The stability of lysozyme was also affected by pH. lysozyme was very stable in acidic solution but in alkaline solution. Enzymatic activity showed maximum value at pH 3.0 solution while decreased rapidly above pH 6.0 solution.
