  • Phospholipase A$_{2}$ (PLA$_{2}$) is lipolytic enzyme that has known to be involved in inflammation. In the course of our screening for antiinflammatory compounds from natural products, a compound having PLA$_{2}$ inhibitory activities was isolated from the methanol extract of Umbilicaria esculenta. The compound was identified as lecanoric acid based on various NMR studies including DEPT, HETERO-COSY and HMBC experiments. Lecanoric acid inhibited human rheumatoid synovial PLA$_{2}$ activity with IC$_{50}$ of 0.17 mM and also exhibited antitumor activity (ED$_{50}$=2.7 $\mu $g/ml) against skin tumor cell line (LOX-IMVI).

  • A feruloyl esterase encoding gene (designated fae6), derived from a leachate metagenomic library, was cloned and the nucleotide sequence of the insert DNA determined. Translational analysis revealed that fae6 consists of a 515 amino acid poly-peptide, encoding a 55 kDa pre-protein. The Fae6 primary structure contained the G-E-S-A-G sequence, which corresponds well with a typical catalytic serine sequence motif (G-x-S-x-G). The fae6 gene was successfully over-expressed in E. coli and the recombinant protein was purified to 8.4 fold enrichment with 17% recovery. The $K_M$ data showed Fae6 has a high affinity to methyl sinapate while thermostability data indicated that fae6 was thermolabile with a half life ($T_{1/2}$) < 30 min at $50^{\circ}C$. High affinity for Fae6 against methyl sinapate, methyl ferulate and ethyl ferulate suggest that the enzyme can be useful in hydrolyzing ferulated polysaccharides in a biorefinery process.

  • A lipase from Aeromonas sp. LPB 4, a psychrotophile isolated from a sea sediment was purified and characterized. The lipase was purified 53.5 fold to a homogeneous state by acetone precipitation and QAE sephadex column chromatography and its molecular weight was determined to be 50 kDa by SDS-PAGE. The enzyme exhibited maximum activity at 10$^{\circ}C$ and was stable at temperatures lower than 50$^{\circ}C$. This lipase favored substrates containing medium carbon chain of acyl group, while too low and high carbon chain decreased its activity. The lipolytic activity of purified lipase was slightly increased by the addition of 0.1% detergent, but decreased by 1% of detergent. Butanol severely decreased the lipase activity while methanol increased the activity about 15%.

  • 본 연구에서는 꽃송이버섯 추출물을 처리하여 분화된 3T3-L1 지방 세포와 비만 유도 쥐에서 지질분해 효과를 살펴보았다. In vitro, preadipocyte에서 MTT assay를 이용하여 세포독성 실험을 한 결과 시간, 농도에 관계없이 세포생존율에 영향을 미치지 않았고, 분화된 지방세포에서의 지방분해 효과는 농도 의존적으로 감소되는 것을 확인할 수 있다. 이외에도 지방세포에서 지방분해 산물인 glycerol 양을 측정한 결과 48, 72시간에서 시간, 농도 의존적으로 유의성 있게 증가하였다. Lipolytic enzyme의 CPT-1 및 UCP-2 발현을 측정하기 위해 Western blot assay를 실시한 결과 꽃송이버섯 열수추출물이 CPT-1 및 UCP-2의 발현을 증가시키는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. In vivo에서 고지방 식이에 의해 비만이 유도된 쥐에 꽃송이버섯 열수추출물을 처리한 후 실험 종료 시 실험동물의 체중은 고지방식이를 공급한 군에 비해 저농도, 고농도 꽃송이버섯을 처리한 군 각각 유의적으로 감소하였다. 실험동물의 장기와 지방조직 무게를 측정한 결과, 대조군에 비해 추출물을 처리한 군에서 체중과 장기 및 지방조직의 감소가 저농도, 고농도 모두 유의하게 나타났으며, 혈청 및 간의 지질함량을 측정한 결과, 혈청지질의 중성지방, 총 콜레스테롤 함량 모두 대조군에 비해 유의적으로 낮게 나타났으며, HDL-콜레스테롤 함량은 유의적으로 높게 나타났다. 간의 지질함량을 측정한 결과 중성지방은 유의적으로 낮게 나타났고 총 콜레스테롤 역시 대조군에 비해 유의적으로 낮게 나타났다. 따라서 혈청 및 간의 지질함량을 측정한 결과 꽃송이버섯 열수추출물이 비만이 유도된 쥐의 혈청 및 간의 지질 농도 변화를 낮추는 효과가 있다고 사료된다. 따라서 꽃송이버섯 열수추출물은 lipolytic enzyme의 발현을 증가시켜 지방산의 산화 반응 및 열 발생에 의한 에너지 소비율을 증가시켜 lipid accumulation을 감소시키며, 이로 인한 체중 감소 및 혈청이나 간의 지질함량을 개선시켜 지질분해 효과를 보여줌으로써 비만 예방 및 치료를 목적으로 하는 식품 소재로서의 활용이 가능할 것으로 생각된다.

  • We have been isolating various physiologically active substances from non-saponin fraction of Korean Red Ginseng These are adenosine, gyro-glutamic acid, dencichine and acidic polysaccharide. Adenosine and gyro-glutamic acid are loom to inhibit epinephrine-induced lipolysis in fat cells and stimulate the insulin-mediated lipogenesis. In addition to these actions, adenosine was found to inhibit both norepinephrine- and histamine-induced aorta constriction, and pyre·glutamic acid inhibits angiotensin-converting enzyme. Dencichine stimulated histamine-induced aorta constriction. Finally, acidic polysaccharide was found to inhibit both lipolytic and anorexigenic actions of Toxohormone-L. Based on these experimental results, I presented a brief review on these compounds isolated from non- saponin fraction of Korea Red Ginseng. Keywords Panax ginseng, Korean red ginseng, adenosine, pyroglutamic acid, dencichine, acidic polysac- charide, lipolysis, lipogenesis, angiotensin-converting enzyme, toxohormone-L.

  • 남극해에는 산업적으로 유용한 신규 효소촉매를 생산하는 미생물들이 들어 있다. 우리는 로스해(Ross Sea)로부터 분리한 여러 저온성 박테리아를 조사하였으며, 그 중에서 지방분해 능력이 뛰어난 Croceibacter atlanticus (No. 40-F12)를 찾았다. Shotgun 클로닝 방법으로 리파아제 유전자(lipCA)를 찾았으며 Escherichia coli 균에서 LipCA 효소를 발현하였다. Spain Arreo metagenome alpha/beta hydrolase를 기준으로 LipCA 상동구조모델을 만들어서 분석한 결과, ${\alpha}/{\beta}$ hydrolase fold, Gly-X-Ser-X-Gly motif, 그리고 lid 구조를 갖고 있기 때문에 전형적인 리파아제 효소임이 밝혀졌다. Ammonium sulfate 침전법과 겔여과 크로마토그래피를 통해서 세포추출액으로부터 LipCA 효소를 순수하게 분리한 후, 최적 온도, pH, 안정성, 기질특이성, 유기용매 안정성 등의 효소특성을 규명하였다. LipCA를 cross-linked enzyme aggregate (CLEA) 방법으로 고정화하고 효소특성을 조사, 비교하였다. 고정화를 통해 온도, pH, 유기용매에 대한 안정성이 증가하였고 기질특이성의 변화는 관찰되지 않았다. $LipCA^{CLEA}$는 원심분리 방법으로 쉽게 회수되었고 4번의 재사용 후에 40% 이상의 활성이 잔재하였다. 이 논문은 C. atlanticus 리파아제의 발현, 특성규명, Cross-linked Enzyme Aggregated 고정화를 바탕으로 안정성을 높여 산업적 활용 가능성을 제시한 최초의 보고이다.

  • Knowledge regarding lipid catabolism has been of great interest in the field of animal sciences. In the livestock industry, excess fat accretion in meat is costly to the producer and undesirable to the consumer. However, intramuscular fat (marbling) is desirable to enhance carcass and product quality. The manipulation of lipid content to meet the goals of animal production requires an understanding of the detailed mechanisms of lipid catabolism to help meticulously design nutritional, pharmacological, and physiological approaches to regulate fat accretion. The concept of a basic system of lipases and their co-regulators has been identified. The major lipases cleave triacylglycerol (TAG) stored in lipid droplets in a sequential manner. In adipose tissue, adipose triglyceride lipase (ATGL) performs the first and rate-limiting step of TAG breakdown through hydrolysis at the sn-1 position of TAG to release a non-esterified fatty acid (NEFA) and diacylglycerol (DAG). Subsequently, cleavage of DAG occurs via the rate-limiting enzyme hormone-sensitive lipase (HSL) for DAG catabolism, which is followed by monoglyceride lipase (MGL) for monoacylglycerol (MAG) hydrolysis. Recent identification of the co-activator (Comparative Gene Identification-58) and inhibitor [G(0)/G(1) Switch Gene 2] of ATGL have helped elucidate this important initial step of TAG breakdown, while also generating more questions. Additionally, the roles of these lipolysis-related enzymes in muscle, liver and skin tissue have also been found to be of great importance for the investigation of systemic lipolytic regulation.

  • Acne is a chronic inflammatory disease of the sebaceous gland attached to the hair follicles. Cutibacterium acnes is a major cause of inflammation caused by acne. It is well known that C. acnes secretes a lipolytic enzyme to break down lipids in sebum, and free fatty acids produced at this time accelerate the inflammatory reaction. There are several drugs used to treat acne; however, each one has various side effects. According to previous studies, sulforaphene (SFEN) has several functions associated with lipid metabolism, brain function, and antibacterial and anti-inflammatory activities. In this study, we examined the effects of SFEN on bacterial growth and inflammatory cytokine production induced by C. acnes. The results revealed that SFEN reduced the growth of C. acnes and inhibited proinflammatory cytokines in C. acnes-treated HaCaT keratinocytes through inhibiting NF-κB-related pathways. In addition, SFEN regulated the expression level of IL-1α, a representative pro-inflammatory cytokine expressed in co-cultured HaCaT keratinocytes and THP-1 monocytes induced by C. acnes. In conclusion, SFEN showed antibacterial activity against C. acnes and controlled the inflammatory response on keratinocytes and monocytes. This finding means that SFEN has potential as both a cosmetic material for acne prevention and a pharmaceutical material for acne treatment.
