초록

Bacillus pasteurii의 urease gene이 Escherichia coli HB101에서 발현된 Bacillus성 recombinant urease를 단일단백질으로 정제하고 그 효소학적 특성을, 별도로 정제한 B.pasteurii urease의 그것과 비교검토하였다. B.pasteurii urease gene이 cloning 된 E.coli HB101(pBU11)의 균체파쇄액으로 부터 TEAE-cellulose, DEAE-Sephadex A-50, Sephadex G-150, sephadex G-200 등의 이온교환 크로마토그래피와 gel filtration을 이용하여 E.coli내에서 발현된 B. pasteurii성제하였으며, 또한 B.pasteurii로부타 비활성도 185.2배의 urease를 정제하여 disc gel electrophoresis로 단일 단백으로 정제되었음을 확인하였다. 정제된 두 urease 들의 native 상태의 분자량은 공히 280,000$pm$10,000 정도로 확인되었고, SDS-electrophoresis에의 해 subunit 유무와 분자량을 확인한 결과도 67,000정도의 subunit 4개와 20,000의 subunit 1개로 된 $\alpha$$\beta$ 구조의 동일한 효소단백으로 추정할 수 있었다. Gene donor인 B. pasteurii와 cloning 된 균주 E. coli(pBU11)이 생산한 두 urease의 효소학적 특성을 비교 조사해본 결과 두 urease의 최적반응 pH는 공히 7.5로 나타났으며, pH에 대한 안정성도 두 ureaserk 공히 pH 5.5에서 10.5 사이에서 50% 이하로 활성이 떨어지지 않는 강한 pH 안정성을 보였다. 두 urese의 최적반응의 온도는 $60^{\circ}C$였으며, 비교적 온도에 대한 저항이 강한 효소임을 알았다. 두 urease의 활성에 미치는 금속이온의 영향은 $Ag^{2+}$, $Hg^{2+}$ 등에서 양효소가 모두 강한 저해현상을 받는 반면, $Mn^{2+}$, $Mg^{2+}$ 에서는 다소 촉진되는 현상을 보였다. 효소반응 저해제들의 영향을 조사해 본 결과 p-CMB, acetohydroxamic acid에 두 urease가 모두 강한 저해를 받았다. 두 urease의 $K_m$ 값과 $V_{max}$ 값은 E. coli(pBU11)의 urease는 $4.21{\times}10^{-2}mol/\ell$, $86.96\ell$mol/min 이었고, B. pasteurii urease는 $4.04{\times}10^{-2}mol/\ell$, $160\ell$mol/min이었다. 따라서 B. pasteurii의 urease나 그 urease gene으로 cloning되어 E. coliso에서 발현된 recombinant urease는 분자량이나 효소학적 특서에서 거의 동일한 효소단백임을 알 수 있었다.

The gene coding for urease of alkalophilic Bacillus pasteurii had been cloned in Escherichia coli previously. The urease protein was purified 63.1-fold by TEAE-cellulose, DEAE-Sephadex A-50, Sephadex G-150 and Sephadex G-200 chromatographies with a 7.3% yield from the sonicated fluid of the E. coli HB1Ol(pBUll) encoding B. pasteurii urease gene. The ureases of E. coli (pBUll) and B. pasteurii possessed as a $K_m$ for urea, 42.1 mM and 40.4 mM, respectively. They hydrolyzed urea with $V_{max}$ of 86.9$\mu$mol/min and 160$\mu$mol/min, respectively. Both ureases were composed with four subunits (Mrs 67,000) and a subunit (Mr 20,000). The molecular weight of both native enzymes was Mr 280,OOO$pm$10,000 determined by gel filtration chromatography and Coomassie blue staining of the subunits. The optimal reaction pH of both ureases were pH 7.5. The ureases were stabled in pH 5.5-10.5. The optimal reaction temperature of both ureases were $60^{\circ}C$, and the ureases were stable for an hour at $50^{\circ}C$, 40min at $60^{\circ}C$ and 10 min at $70^{\circ}C$ The activity of both enzymes were inhibited completely by $Ag^{2+}$, $Hg^{2+}$, $Zn^{2+}$, $Cu^{2+}$, and were inhibited 60% by CoH, 30% by $Fe^{2+}$ and 10% by $Pb^{2+}$. However it was increased by the addition of $Sn^{2+}$, $Mn^{2+}$, $Mg^{2+}$ at concentration of $1{\times}10^{-3}$M. Both ureases were inhibited completely by p-CMB and acetohydroxamic acid. The urease expressed in E. coli (pBU11) was inhibited 70% by SDS. The urease of B. pasteurii was inhibited 40% by hydroxyurea, whereas the recombinant urease of E. coli strain was inhibited 17%. Both enzymes were not inhibited by cyclohexanediaminetetraacetic acid (CDTA) and ethylendiaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA).
