The low solubility and high-cost recovery of Propionibacterium acnes polyunsaturated fatty acid isomerase (PAI) are key problems in the bioproduction of high value-added conjugated linoleic acid (CLA). To improve the solubility of recombinant PAI, six chaperone proteins were coexpressed with PAI. Introduction of GroELS proteins dramatically improved the PAI solubility from 29% to 97%, with increased activity by 57.8%. Combined expression of DnaKJ-GrpE and GroELS proteins increased the activity by 11.9%. In contrast, coexpression of DnaKJ-GrpE proteins significantly reduced the activity by 57.4%. Plasmids pTf16 harboring the tig gene and pG-Tf2 containing the tig and groEL-groES genes had no visible impact on PAI expression. The lytic protein E was then introduced into the recombinant Escherichia coli to develop a cell autolysis system. A 35% activity of total intracellular PAI was released from the cytoplasm by suspending the lysed cells in distilled water. The PAI recovery was further improved to 81% by optimizing the release conditions. The lipase from Rhizopus oryzae was also expressed in E. coli, with an extracellular activity of 110.9 U/ml. By using the free PAI and lipase as catalysts, a joint system was established for producing CLA from sunflower oil. Under the optimized conditions, the maximum titer of t-10,c-12-CLA reached 9.4 g/l. This work provides an effective and low-cost strategy to improve the solubility and recovery of the recombinant intracellular PAI for further large-scale production of CLA.

Molecular weight and partial amino acid sequence of the cis, 9-cis, 12-octadecadienoate isomerase(linoleate isomerase) of Butyrivibrio fibrisovens A-38 were determined. Linoleate isomerase was isolated from the bac-teria cultured anaerobically and purified by ultracentrifugation in conjunction with Sepharose 6B column chro-matography, Phenyl sepharose 4B column chromatography and fast performance liquid chromatography (EPLC). The isomerase was single polypeptide with 19KD of molecular weight, when determined by SDS-PAGE. Fourteen amino acids sequence of N-terminal of the linoleate isomerase was N-GEIDKYPRIIKQQ determined by Edman method.

CLA는 탄소가 18개(C18)인 linoleic acid의 이중결합이 C9,C11; C10,C12 위치로 이동됨으로 생성되는 입체이성(c,c; c,t; t,c; t,t)체를 총괄적으로 일컷는 말이다. 이론적으로 가능한 이성체 중에서 c9,t11-CLA가 rumen bacteria, lactic bacteria, 버섯균 등의 linoleate isomerase에 의해 linoleic acid로부터 생합성된다. 그러나 linoleic acid를 알카리 이성화로 합성한 CLA에는 이론적으로 가능한 모든 CLA 이성체가 존재한다. 그 중 c9,t11-CLA와 t10,c12-CLA가 약 45%씩 동일량 존재한다. CLA가 1939 년 linoleic acid의 elaidinization 반응에서 처음으로 소개되었으나 그 이후에는 과학적인 이용가치가 없어 과학자들의 관심의 대상이 되지 않았다. 그러나 1987년에 CLA가 7,12-dimethylbenz[a]anthracene (DMBA)으로 유도한 mouse skin carcinogenesis에서 항암성이 있다는 보고 이후 CLA에 관한 연구는 급속도로 증가하여 현재까지 약 6,100 연구논문이 발표되었다. CLA와 c9,t11-CLA 및 t10,c12-CLA 이성체는 in vitro와 in vivo에서 항암성, 항당뇨성, 항혈압성, 항동맥경화성, 면역증강성, 항산화성, 체지방감소성, testosterone 생산성 등의 생물학적 기능이 갖는다고 밝혀졌다. 이들 생리활성에 c9,t11-CLA와 t10,c12-CLA가 in vitro와 in vivo에서 다른 활성을 보이고 있다. 특히, 합성 CLA에 소량 혼합되어 있는 t,t-CLA가 carcinogen으로 유도한 동물모델이나 암세포에서 다른 이성체 보다 강한 항암성을 보이는 결과는 앞으로 더 많은 연구의 대상이 될 것이다. 본 총설에서는 CLA 관련 연구가 시작된 1939년부터 현재까지의 CLA 연구 트렌드를 살펴보고 밝혀진 주요 기능성을 보고한다.

This study was carried out to obtain conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) producing lactic acid bacteria for further study on the enzymes related to the production of CLA which has gained considerable attention and on the development as a probiotic culture. Total 34 lactic acid bacteria were isolated from 19 feces samples of healthy babies. CLA forming ability was measured spectrophotometrically by the modification of linoleate 12-cis, 11-trans-isomerase activity measuring method, and CLA of the cultures were extracted, methylated, and examined by HPLC analysis. CLA methyl ester of only one culture showing the highest value of CLA forming ability could be detected by HPLC analysis. The culture was found to be Gram positive, rods and catalase negative. It grows at $45^{\circ}C$ but not at $15^{\circ}C$, and was identified to be Lactobacillus fermentum on the basis of the biochemical characteristics and the utilization of substrates. These results provide an efficient experimental method to screen CLA producing lactic acid bacteria.

Objective: The present investigation was aimed to explore the potential of lactobacilli for conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) production, isolated from rumen fluid samples of lactating goats. Methods: A total of 64 isolates of lactobacilli were obtained using deMan-Rogosa-Sharpe (MRS) agar from rumen fluid of goats and further subjected to morphological and biochemical characterizations. Isolates found as gram-positive, catalase negative rods were presumptively identified as Lactobacillus species and further confirmed by genus specific polymerase chain reaction (PCR). The phylogenetic tree was constructed from the nucleotide sequences using MEGA6. Results: Out of the 64 isolates, 23 isolates were observed positive for CLA production by linoleate isomerase gene-based amplification and quantitatively by UV-spectrophotometric assay for the conversion of linoleic acid to CLA as well as gas chromatography-based assay. In all Lactobacillus species cis9, trans11 isomer was observed as the most predominant CLA isomer. These positive isolates were identified by 16S rRNA gene-based PCR sequencing and identified to be different species of L. ingluviei (2), L.salivarius (2), L. curvatus (15), and L. sakei (4). Conclusion: The findings of the present study concluded that lactic acid bacteria isolated from ruminal fluid samples of goat have the potential to produce bioactive CLA and may be applied as a direct fed microbial to enhance the nutraceutical value of animal food products.
