우엉 뿌리(Arctium lappa L.)에서 polyphenol oxidase가 DEAE-Cellulose 음이온 수지, 황산암모늄 침전법, Phenyl-sepharose CL-4B 친화크로마토그래피 그리고 Sephadex G-100 겔여과크로마토그래피 등의 과정으로 정제되었며 정제효소의 효소학적 특성을 검토하였다. 정제된 효소의 분자량은 약 30 kDa의 단일폴리펩티드 사슬로 구성되어 있었다. 효소반응의 최적 pH와 온도는 각각 7.0과 35$\circC$이었으며, pH 2와 6 사이의 산성조건과, pH 8과 10 사이의 알카리 조건에서는 활성이 감소되거나 상실되었다. 온도에 대한 영향을 살펴본 결과, 40$\circC$까지 비교적 안정한 활성을 나타내고 있었으나, 50$\circC$에서 30분간 정치 시 효소활성을 50%이상 감소하는 것으로 나타내었다. 이 효소는 catechol과 L-DOPA에 대하여 높은 효소활성을 나타내었으며, chlorogenic acid과 catechol에 대한 Km 값은 각각 16.18 mM과 23.11 mM이었다. Ascorbic acid와 L-cysteine은 우엉 뿌리 polyphenol oxidase의 효소활성을 감소시켰으며, 금속이온의 경우 $Cu^{2+}$가 효소의 활성을 감소시키는 인자로 나타났다.

Polyphenol oxidase in Yam was partially purified through ammonium sulfate fractionation, DEAE-cellulose column chromatography. The specific activity of purified PPO was 138.22 unit/mg protein. The optimum pH and temperature of purified PPO were respectively 7.0 and 30$^{\circ}C$. The heat treatment at 80$^{\circ}C$ for 6 min, decreased PPO activity to 50%. The enzyme showed high substrate specificity toward catechol. The Km value for catechol was 5 mM. In the Ames test using S. typhimurium TA98 and TA100 catechol-YEBRP, pyrogallol-YEBRP, chlorogenic-YEBRP showed strong antimutagenicity on sodium azide and MECF excepting hydroquinone-YEBRP showed killing effect on both strains.

N-Phenylthiourea derivatives and catechol oxidase receptor complex was studied using molecular mechanics method. The starting structure was adopted from the protein databank and the calculation of energy minimization and molecular dynamics was performed with AMBER package. The molecular dynamics showed that the simulation time span of 20 ns was long enough to observe the interaction profile and stationary ligand-receptor configuration in the complex. The conformation of the ligand was related to the interaction to the receptor and the efficacy was also interpreted in this context.

Polyphenol oxidase(PPO) isolated from the crude extract of ascidian, Halocynthia roretzi, showed higher affinity for catechol than tyrosine or DL-DOPA. Successful enzyme assay could be performed at $25^{\circ}C$, 10min. by mixing 0.2ml of crude enzyme extract with 2.8ml of 0.13M catechol in 0.1M sodium phosphate buffer(pH 6.4). The specific activity of PPO which had been purified with a combination of ammonium sulfate treatment, ion exchange chromatography on DEAE-cellulose, and gel filtration on Sepharose 6B was 13-fold disc gel electrophoresis. The activity of PPO was stable from pH 5.0 to 8.0 and showed the peak activity at pH 6.4 .The optimum reaction temperature for PPO oxidation on catechol was 35$^{\circ}C$ and those enzyme were heat stable up to 4$0^{\circ}C$. Molecular weigth of the enzyme was estimated about 170kDa. One molecule was found to be composed of gour subunits. Two of them had molecular weigh of 55kDa and the others 30kDa. The {TEX}$K_{m}${/TEX} values, {TEX}$V_{max}${/TEX} and catalytic efficiency({TEX}$V_{max}${/TEX}/{TEX}$K_{m}${/TEX}) for catechol were 0.12mM, 2.5mM/liter/min. and {TEX}$0.18min^{-1}${/TEX} respectively. The substrate affinity and electrophorectic pattern suggested that the enzyme of ascidian was considered to be not tyosine but catechol oxidase.

사과주(酒)의 효소(酵素)에 의(依)한 갈변(褐變)을 조사하기 위하여 갈변(褐變)과 관련된 polyphenol성(性) 물질 및 polyphenol oxidase 활성 band의 변화를 사과주(酒) 제조기간동안 조사한 결과는 다음과 같다. Total phenol 의 감소율은 $SO_2$ 처리에 의해서 현저히 둔화되었고, catechol의 산화(酸化)는 온도(溫度)와 pH가 높아짐에 따라 촉진되었으나, pH 5.0 이하에서는 $4^{\circ}C$에서 산화(酸化)가 일어나지 않았다. Polyacrylamide gel 전기영동으로 사과에는 Rm값이 각각 0.21, 0.30, 0.41, 0.51인 a, b, c, d 4 개의 polyphenol oxidase활성을 가진 band가 관찰되었다. 이들중 a, c 2 개의 band는 발효(醱酵) 5 일째까지 계속 관찰되었으며, 발효(醱酵) 6 일째부터는 c band만 관찰되었다. 이 band는 $60^{\circ}C$, 30분간(分間)의 살균(殺菌) 처리 후에도 계속 남아있었다.

To investigate the cause of increased plasma catecholamine levels in liver disease, catechol-O-methyltransferase (COMT), which provides a major route of catabolism for circulating catecholamines, was studied under the cholestasis induced by mechanical biliary obstruction in rats. Monoamine oxidase (MAO) activity and the $K_m$ and $V_{max}$ values for both enzymes were also measured. Cytosolic, microsomal, and mitochondrial COMT activities in the cholestatic liver were significantly decreased throughout the experiment. Microsomal, and mitochondrial MAO activity in the cholestatic liver were also significantly decreased. Vmax values of COMT and MAO were lower. Serum COMT and MAO activities were detected after CBD ligation. These results indicate that plasma catecholamine levels are increased in liver disease due to decreased hepatic degradation of catecholamines by decreased activities of COMT and MAO. The decreased activity of these enzymes is caused by decreased biosynthesis and by flowage into the blood from the damaged hepatocyte.

Polyphenol oxidase (PPO) was purified from fresh ginseng roots using acetone precipitation, carboxymethyl (CM)-Sepharose chromatography, and phenyl-Sepharose chromatography. Two isoenzymes (PPO 1 and PPO 2) were separated using an ion-exchange column with CM-Sepharose. PPO 1 was purified up to 13.2-fold with a 22.6% yield. PPO 2 bound to CM-Sepharose, eluted with NaCl, and was purified up to 22.5-fold with a 17.4% yield. PPO 2 was further chromatographed on phenyl-Sepharose. The molecular weight of the purified PPO 2 from fresh ginseng was determined by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and was about 40 kDa. The optimum temperature and pH were $20^{\circ}C$ and 7.0, respectively, using catechol as a substrate. Pyrogallol showed the highest substrate specificity. The effect of a PPO inhibitor showed that its activity increased slightly in the presence of a low concentration of citric acid. High concentrations of acidic compounds and sulfite agents significantly inhibited purified ginseng PPO 2.
