To efficiently recycle GH78 thermostable rhamnosidase (TpeRha) and easily separate it from the reaction mixture and furtherly improve the enzyme properties, the magnetic particle Fe3O4-SiO2-NH2-Cellu-ZIF8 (FSNcZ8) was prepared by modifying Fe3O4-NH2 with tetraethyl silicate (TEOS), microcrystalline cellulose and zinc nitrate hexahydrate. FSNcZ8 displayed better magnetic stability and higher-temperature stability than unmodified Fe3O4-NH2 (FN), and it was used to adsorb and immobilize TpeRha from Thermotoga petrophilea 13995. As for properties, FSNcZ8-TpeRha showed optimal reaction temperature and pH of 90℃ and 5.0, while its highest activity approached 714 U/g. In addition, FSNcZ8-TpeRha had better higher-temperature stability than FN. After incubation at 80℃ for 3 h, the residual enzyme activities of FSNcZ8-TpeRha, FN-TpeRha and free enzyme were 93.5%, 63.32%, and 62.77%, respectively. The organic solvent tolerance and the monosaccharides tolerance of FSNcZ8-TpeRha, compared with free TpeRha, were greatly improved. Using naringin (1 mmol/l) as the substrate, the optimal conversion conditions were as follows: FSNcZ8-TpeRha concentration was 6 U/ml; induction temperature was 80℃; the pH was 5.5; induction time was 30 min, and the yield of products was the same as free enzyme. After repeating the reaction 10 times, the conversion of naringin remained above 80%, showing great improvement of the catalytic efficiency and repeated utilization of the immobilized α-L-rhamnosidase.

Background: Minor saponins or human intestinal bacterial metabolites, such as ginsenosides Rg3, F2, Rh2, and compound K, are more pharmacologically active than major saponins, such as ginsenosides Rb1, Rb2, and Rc. In this work, enzymatic hydrolysis of ginsenoside Rb1 was studied using enzyme preparations from cultured mycelia of mushrooms. Methods: Mycelia of Armillaria mellea, Ganoderma lucidum, Phellinus linteus, Elfvingia applanata, and Pleurotus ostreatus were cultivated in liquid media at $25^{\circ}C$ for 2 wk. Enzyme preparations from cultured mycelia of five mushrooms were obtained by mycelia separation from cultured broth, enzyme extraction, ammonium sulfate (30-80%) precipitation, dialysis, and freeze drying, respectively. The enzyme preparations were used for enzymatic hydrolysis of ginsenoside Rb1. Results: Among the mushrooms used in this study, the enzyme preparation from cultured mycelia of A. mellea (AMMEP) was found to convert ginsenoside Rb1 into compound K with a high yield, while those from G. lucidum, P. linteus, E. applanata, and P. ostreatus produced remarkable amounts of ginsenoside Rd from ginsenoside Rb1. The enzymatic hydrolysis pathway of ginsenoside Rb1 by AMMEP was $Rb1{\rightarrow}Rd{\rightarrow}F2{\rightarrow}$ compound K. The optimum reaction conditions for compound K formation from ginsenoside Rb1 were as follows: reaction time 72-96 h, pH 4.0-4.5, and temperature $45-55^{\circ}C$. Conclusion: AMMEP can be used to produce the human intestinal bacterial metabolite, compound K, from ginsenoside Rb1 with a high yield and without food safety issues.

상온에서 카르복시펩티다제 A에 의한 에스테르 기질의 가수분해 반응을 여러가지 외부 시약의 존재하에 행하였다. 산무수물 형태의 아실-효소중간체가 외부시약에 의해 공격받는다면 아실 부분에 포획된 생성물이나 효소부분에 포획된 생성물이 형성될 것이다. 반응생성물의 분광도와 효소활성도의 변화를 조사한 결과 포획반응의 생성물은 검출되지 않았다. 또한, O-(o-hydroxyphenylacetyl)-L-${\beta}$-phenyllactate가수분해에 대한 효소 반응속도변수를 측정하였다. 이 기질의 o-히드록시기가 분자내 포획기로서 작용하여 산무수물형태의 아실-효소중간체를 공격하여 20coumaranone이 형성되었나를 조사하였으나 분자내 포획반응이 일어났다는 증거는 얻지 못하였다. 이러한 중간체 포획반응의 실패는 포획용 시약이 아실-효소 중간체의 무수산기에 접근할때 입체적 방해를 받거나 중간체의 가수분해 단계도 효소에 의해 촉매되기 때문이라고 생각된다.

Brain GABA transaminase is inactivated by preincubation with antidepressant/antipanic drug pheneizine (${\beta}$ethylphenylhydrazine) (mixing molar ratio 10:1) at pH 7.4. The reaction of enzyme with phenelzine was monitored by absorption and fluorescence spectroscopic methods. The inactive enzyme was fully reconstituted by addition of cofactor pyridoxal-5-phosphate. This result implies that the blocking of 1 mol of pyridoxal-5-phosphate per enzyme dimer is needed for inactivation of the enzyme. The time course of the reaction is significantly affected by the substrate .alpha.-ketoglutarate, which afforded complete protection against the loss of catalytic activity. The kinetic studies shows that phenelzine reacts with the cofactor of enzyme with a second-order rate constant of $2.1{\times}10^3M^{-1}s^{-1}$. It is postulated that the antidepressant/antipanic drug phenelzine is able to elevate the neurotransmitter GABA levels in central nervous system by inhibitory action on GABA degradative enzyme GABA transaminase.

참기름 제조의 부산물인 참깨박의 활용도를 높이기 위하여 효소 처리에 의한 참깨박 불용성 단백질의 추출 조건을 조사하였다. 단백질 분해효소인 Alcalase, Flavourzyme, Neutrase, Protamex의 처리 결과를 대조구와 비교한 결과 Protamex가 고형분과 단백질 함량 증가에 효과적이었다. Protamex의 반응 조건(50 ℃, pH 6.0)에서 효소의 사용량은 탈지 참깨박의 1%, 효소반응시간은 3시간이 적당하였다. 효소 처리 효율을 향상시키기 위하여 참깨박을 열처리하면, 열처리 온도가 증가할수록 추출되는 단백질 함량은 증가하였으며 110이상에서는 미미하게 증가하였다. 세포벽 분해효소(Tunicase)와 단백질 분해효소의 병용처리가 단백질 가용화에 미치는 효과를 조사한 결과, 단백질 분해효소를 처리한 다음에 세포벽 분해효소를 처리하는 것이 가장 효과적이었다. 열처리(110 ℃, 10분) 후 Protamex와 Tunicase를 순차적인 처리로 단백질 함량이 열처리와 효소처리하지 않은 대조구의 약 3.6배(9.85→35.58 mg/mL), 열처리만 실시한 대조구의 약 2.2배(15.83→35.58 mg/mL) 증가하였다.

Beer의 법칙을 이용하여 lysozyme-M. lysodeikticus cell의 용해반응속도 및 lysozyme의 활성을 측정할 수 있는 간단하고 새로운 실험방법을 제시하였다. M.lysodeikticus cell의 농도에 따라 용액의 UV 투과도를 측정하였으며 이것은 Beer의 법칙에 따르는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 용액 내의 lysozyme 농도 및 용해반응에 의해 생성되는 생성물은 UV 투과도에 전혀 영향을 미치지 않는 것으로 실험적으로 증명되었다. 따라서 lysozyme의 용해반응이 진행되는 동안 용액내에 존재하는 M. lysodeikticus cell의 농도는 UV-분광광도계를 이용하여 in-situ로 측정될 수 있었다. 이렇게 얻어진 M. lysodeikticus cell의 농도변화를 Michaelis-Menten식을 이용하여 lysozyme-M. lysodeikticus cell의 용해 반응속도 상수들을 결정하였다. 최대반응속도상수 $k_3$은 약 $0.1734sec^{-1}$로 나타났으며 Michaelis-Menten 상수는 약 $9.83{\times}10^{-6}M$으로 나타났다. Lysozyme의 용해반응속도가 활성에 의존하므로 이와 같은 측정을 통해 lysozyme의 활성도도 측정할 수 있었다.

The dependence of activities of Aspergillus phoenicis on the culture conditions in the progesterone transformation reaction was investigated. In the beginning of the reaction, $6{\beta},\;11{\alpha}-dihydroxyprogesterone$ was not produced even at high concentration of $11{\alpha}-hydroxyprogesterone$. However, large amount of the product was obtained after the complete exhaustion of progesterone. When spores of A.phoenicis replaced mycelia as enzyme source, $11{\alpha}-hydroxyprogesterone$ was produced after a considerably long indyction period, and its maximum production rate followed the exponential growth phase. The $6{\beta}-hydroxylation\;of\;11{\alpha}-hydroxyprogesterone$ continued, even after the stationary growth phase. A. phoenicis showed high enzyme activity for these reactions when the phosphate buffer solutions were used in place of the ordinary culture medium. The buffer solutions of low pH gave more yield of $11{\alpha}-hydroxyprogesterone$ than those of high pH. However, the addition of flucose to the buffer solutions did not activate the transformation reaction. The presence of progesterone seems to be necessary for the induction of enzymes for the $6{\beta}-hydroxylation\;of\;11{\alpha}-hydroxyprogesterone\;since\;6{\beta},\;11{\alpha}-dihydroxyprogesterone$ is not produced in the reaction medium containing only $11{\alpha}-hydroxyprogesterone$ as a substrate.

Highly active, stable, and magnetically separable immobilized enzymes were developed using carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) and diethylaminoethyl cellulose DEAE-C; hereafter designated "DEAE" as supporting materials. Iron oxide nanoparticles penetrated the micropores of the supporting materials, rendering them magnetically separable. Lipase (LP) was immobilized on the surface of the supporting materials by using cross-linked enzyme aggregation (CLEA) by glutaraldehyde. The activity of enzyme aggregates coated on DEAE was approximately 2 times higher than that of enzyme aggregates coated on CMC. This is explained by the fact that enzyme aggregates with amine residues are more efficient than those with carboxyl residues. After a 96-h enantioselective ibuprofen esterification reaction, 6% ibuprofen propyl ester was produced from the racemic mixture of ibuprofen by using DEAE-LP, and 2.8% using CMC-LP.
