토양으로부터 nucleoside oxidase 생산균주를 분리하고 Flavobacterium meningosepticum으로 동정하였다. 생산균주의 cell free extract로부터 본 효소를 정제배율 180배, 수율 18로 전기영동적으로 균일하게 정제하였으며 정제효소의 기질 특이성을 검토한 결과 nucleoside만을 산화시키는 전형적인 nucleoside oxidase이었다. Adenosine을 기질로 한 표준효소반응계에서 stoichiometry를 검토한 결과 본 효소는 lmol adenosine을 중간 생성물인 adenosice 5'-aldeh-yde로 산화 후 1 mol adenosine 5'-carboxylic acid까지 2단계로 산화시키면서 동시에 2 mol H2O2를 생성하는 새로운 type의 nucleoside oxidase로 확인되었다. 본 효소의 높은 기질 특이성과 H2O2를 생성하는 반응성은 nucleoside의 신속 간편한 효소학적정량볍 및 임상진단용 시약의 개발에 응용될 수 있음을 시사하였다.

Optimal cultural conditions were investigated for the maximal productivity of nucleoside oxidase and peroxidase from Flavobacterium meningosepticum. Sucrose and Polypepton were the best as a carbon source and a nitrogen source. Fe$^{2+}$, Fe$^{3+}$ and Cu$^{2+}$ increased the activities of the two enzymes and were essential in medium containing peptone as a nitrogen source. Nucleoside derivatives such as 2'-deoxyguanosine, 2'-deoxyadenosine, N$^{6}$ -methyladenosine and 1-methyladenosine were effective for the production of the two enzymes. Especially, the addition of N$^{6}$ -methyladenosine and 1-methyladenosine decreased cell growth, but increased the two enzyme activities. High level of oxygen also was an essential factor for formation and/or induction of these enzymes. From the summary of this study about optimal medium and environmental conditions, nucleoside oxidase was biosynthesized in proportion to peroxidase. These results suggested that the role of peroxidase should be degradation of H$_{2}$O$_{2}$ generated by nucleoside oxidase in the cell of Flavobacterium meningosepticum.

Peroxidase was purified to homogeneity from cell free extract of Flavobacterium meningosepticum. The molecular weight of the enzyme estimated by gel filtration column chromatography was 220, 000. A identical subunit (54, 000) was detected on SDS-PAGE of the enzyme. From these results, the enzyme was supposed to have four identical subunits. On the basis of the visible absorption spectra of the purified enzyme, the enzyme was a typical hemoprotein. The isoelectric point of the enzyme was 4.1. On using N-ethyl-N-(2-hydroxy-3-sulfopropyl)-m- toluidine (Toos) as a hydrogen donor, the enzyme showed optimum activity at the pH 5.5 and 50$\circ$C. The enzyme activity was inhibited by carbonyl reagent and Hg$^{2+}$ .

The molecular weight of the purified nucleoside oxidase estimated by gel filtration column chromatography was 480,000 and the enzyme protein was composed of four nonidentical subunits (81,000, 69,000, 32,000 and 16,000). On the basis of the visible absorption spectra and the enzymatic determination of the purified enzyme, the enzyme was supposed as a hemoprotein and also a flavoprotein containing 3 moles of FAD per I mole of enzyme. The isoelectric point of the enzyme was pH 5.1. Addition of metal salts such as 1 mM SnCl$_{2}$ and PbCl$_{2}$ into an enzyme reaction solution inhibited the enzyme activity by 94 and 90%, respectively. The enzyme activity was also lost significantly by hemoenzyme inhibitors such as NaCN and NaN$_{3}$ and flavoenzyme inhibitor, acriflavine and quinacrine. The maximal nucleoside oxidase activity was observed at pH 7.0 and 55$\circ$C. The nucleoside oxidase was relatively stable in the range of pH 5.5-9.0 and below 55$\circ$C.
