Abstract

Streptomyces polychromogenes IFO 13072 was used as a strain producing cholesterol oxidase(EC 1.1.3.6). The conditions of cholesterol oxidase production were investigated. The optimum composition of medium for production of the enzyme was 1% dextrin, 0.5% casamino acid, 0.1% $KH_2$PO$_4$, 0.5% $NaNO_3$ and 0.05% $MgSO_4$(pH 7.3). The enzyme was purified specifically by cholesterol affinity column chromatography with a yield of 23.2%. The purified enzyme showed a single polypeptide on SDS-PAGE and the molecular weight was estimated about 52,000 daltons. The optimum pH and temperature of the cholesterol oxidase were pH 7.0 and $37^{\circ}C$, respectively. The enzyme was stable in the range of pH 6.0~7.0 and $25^{\circ}C$. The cholesterol oxidase activity was strongly inhibited by metal ions such as $Hg^{2+}$ and $Fe^{2+}$ and inhibitors such as dithiothreitol, mercaptoethanol and isonicotinic acid. The Michaelis constant(Km) for the cholesterol was found to be 25 mM by Lineweaver-Burk plot analysis.

Cholesterol oxidase(EC 1.1.3.6)는 cholesterol을 산화 또는 이성화시키는 효소로, 혈중 cholesterol 측정 등의 임상진단용 시약에 이용되고 있으며, 여러 종류의 미생물에서 분리, 연구되어 왔다. 현재에는 농업 및 식품 등에도 응용이 기대되고 있는 매우 유용한 효소이다. 본 실험은 공시균인 Streptomyces polychromogenes IFO 13072의 효소 생산 조건과 cholesterol oxidase의 정제 및 효소학적 특성을 조사하였다. 효소 생산 조건을 검토한 결과, 탄소원으로 1% dextrin, 유기 질소원으로는 0.5% casamino acid, 무기 질소원으로는 0.5% sodium nitrate가 효소생산에 우수하였으며, 이들 탄소원, 질소원 이외 0.1% $KH_2$$PO_4$, 0.05% $MgSO_4$$7H_2$O가 함유된 배지를 생산 최적 배지로 사용하였다. 본 효소의 정제는 30-80% 포화의 ($NH_4$)$_2$$SO_4$ 침전 및 cholesterol affinity column chromatography를 통하여 23.2%의 수율로 정제되었다. 정제된 효소는 SDS-PAGE에서 단일한 밴드를 보였으며, 분자량은 약 52,000 Da으로 추정되었다. 본 효소의 특성을 검토한 결과, 최적 온도와 최적 pH는 각각 $37^{\circ}C$, pH 7.0이었으며, 효소의 안정성은 온도 $25^{\circ}C$, pH 6.0~7.0의 범위까지 안정한 것으로 나타났다. 또한 본 효소는 금속이온으로 Hg와 Fe 이온의 존재시 크게 저해를 받았고, dithiothreitol과 mercaptoethanol, Isonicotinic acid와 같은 저해제에 의해서 상당히 실활 되었다. 본 cholesterol oxidase의 Michaelis 상수는 cholesterol을 기질로 하여 Lineweaver-Burk plot 분석에서 25 mM로 추산되었다
