A thermolabile alkaline phosphatase has been purified through steps of osmotic shock, ammonium sulfate salting-out, and DAEA-cellulose chromatography from the cultured broth of the marine Vibrio sp. M-96 strain. The optimal temperature for the enzyme activity was 35$\circ$C. The optimal pH was pH11.0, and the range of pHstability was pH10.4 to 12.0. Thermal inactivation occured within 6 mintes at 60$\circ$C. The enzyme was considerably inactivated by 0.1mM concentrations of Hg$^{2+}$, Ni$^{2+}$ and Zn$^{2+}$, whereas activated up to 234% by 1mM of Mn$^{2+}$. The activation energy and deactivation energy by the Arrhenius equation were 4.02 Kcal/mol and 9.098 Kcal/mol, respectively. The Km and Vmax values of the enzyme for p-introphenylphosphate were found to be 0.0465mM and 0.001334mM/min, respectively. Active form of the enzyme had a molecular weight of 57,000 dalton determined by the Sephadex G-200 gel filtration method.

Valencia 오렌지로부터 추출한 펙틴에스테라제(pectinesterase, PE) 중에서 가열처리하지 않은 PE 조효소를 CM-Sephadex C-50, Phenyl Sepharose CL-4B와 CM-Biogel A의 chromatography를 차례로 수행하여 내열성이 약한 TLPE(thermolabile pectinesterase)와 내열성이 강한 TSPE(thermostable pectinesterase)를 분리 정제하였다. PE 중에서 가열처리한 PE 조효소에서는 위와 같은 정제과정으로 TSPE 만을 분리하였다. TLPE는 비활성 1,005 units/mg이고 35배로 정제된 것을 13.6% 회수할 수 있었으며, 반면에 가열하지 않고 분리한 TSPE는 비활성 3,115 units/mg이고 100.5배로 정제된 것을 1.5% 얻을 수 있었으나 가열하여 분리한 TSPE는 비활성 1,803 units/mg이고 가열처리한 조효소가 140배로 정제된 것을 15.4% 얻을 수 있었다.

The thermal properties of ramie leaf ${\beta}$-amylase (RBA) were examined to develop a novel process for enzyme purification. The thermostability of RBA extract prepared from ramie leaf powder was examined at various temperatures. RBA activity decreased slightly, whereas other carbohydrate-active enzymes, such as $\small{D}$-enzyme, were rapidly inactivated during 30 min incubation at $60^{\circ}C$. When the heat-treated extract was incubated with various substrates, maltose was produced exclusively as the major product, whereas the untreated crude extract produced maltose and other maltooligosaccharides. In sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis analysis, fewer protein bands were observed for the heat-treated extract than the untreated extract, indicating that the thermostable RBA was partially purified and other thermolabile enzymes were eliminated. Thus, the treatment of the RBA extract at $60^{\circ}C$ for 30 min resulted in 5.4-fold purification with a recovery yield of 90%.

The thermolabile haemolysin (tlh) of Vibrio parahaemolyticus (Vptlh) from V. parahaemolyticus is a multiple-function enzyme, initially describes as a haemolytic factor activated by lecithin and phospholipase A2 enzymatic activity (Shinoda, 1991; Vazquez-Morado, 2021; Yanagase et al., 1970). Until now, the tlh structure has hypothesized including N-terminal and C-terminal domain, but what domain of the Vptlh structure does the haemolytic activity has not been refined yet. In this study, a 450-bp VpTLH nucleotide sequence of the entire Vptlh gene encoded the C-terminal domain cloned firstly to examine its responsibility in the activity of the Vptlh. The C-terminal domain fused with a 6-His-tag named the His-tag-VpC-terminal domain was expressed successfully in soluble form in the BL21 (DE3) PlysS cell. Remarkably, both expression and purification results confirmed a high agreement in the molecular weight of the His-tag-VpC-terminal domain was 47 kDa. This work showed the His-tag-VpC-terminal domain lysed the erythrocyte membranes in the blood agar and the phosphate buffered saline (0.9%) media without adding the lecithin substrate of the phospholipase enzyme. Haemolysis occurred at all tested diluted concentrations of His-tag-VpC-terminal domain (p < 0.05), providing evidence for the independent haemolytic activity of the His-tag-VpC-terminal domain. The content of 100 ㎍ of the His-tag-VpC-terminal domain brought the highest haemolytic activity of 80% compared to that in the three remaining contents. Significantly, the His-tag-VpC-terminal domain demonstrated not to involve the phospholipase activity in Luria-Bertani agar supplemented with 1% (vol/vol) egg yolk emulsion. All results proved the vital responsibility of the His-tag-VpC-terminal domain in causing the haemolytic activity without the required activation by the phospholipase enzyme. Raw extracts of Phellinus igniarus and Phellinus pipi at 10^-1 mg/mL inhibited the haemolytic activity of the His-tag-VpC-terminal domain from 67.7% to 87.42%, respectively. Hence applying the His-tag-VpC-terminal domain as a simple biological material to evaluate quickly potential derivatives against the Vptlh in vivo conditions will accessible and more advantageous than using the whole of the Vptlh.

Pectinestrase(PE) 중에 열에 안정한 thermostable pectineterase(TSPE)를 열에 불안정한 thermolabile pectinesterase(TLPE)로부터 구분하기 위하여 $70^{\circ}C$에서 $5{\sim}10$분간 가열 처리하였다.

The effects of pH values, temperature and some elements on the amylolytic activity and stability of the purified S. aureofacienc 77 amylase were studied in this investigation. The purified enzyme showed its maximum activity at pH 6 within 8 min incubation at $40^{\circ}C$. None of the tested 6 metals showed on stimulatory effect on the enzymatic activity, $Fe^{+++}$, $Cu^{++}$ and $Hg^{++}$ at high dose inhibited the enzyme activity to great extent as compared with $Zn^{++}$, $Mn^{++}$ and $Fe^{++}$ whih gave less effect in this respect. The enzyme liquor was found to be thermolabile, since it lost completely its activity after 4 days incubation under room temperature and showed maximum activity during this period as a result of additions of $Ca^{++}$and NaCl, Gradual reduction was however recorded until activity reached 30% after 60 days of incubation.

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.

Acetohydroxy acid synthase catalyzes the first common step in the biosynthesis of branched chain amino acids. AHAS plays two distinct metabolic roles, and is designated as anabolic AHAS and catabolic AHAS, depending on its function. Anabolic AHAS is FAD-dependent, while its catabolic counterpart is not. In this work, a conserved motif was identified in the $\beta$-domain of anabolic AHASs, but not in catabolic AHAS ($_{372}RFDDR_{376}$). In order to determine the functions of this motif, we replaced the motif with the corresponding sequence in FAD-independent AHAS, SPVEY. None of these three mutants (SPV, SPVE, and SPVEY) was detected with bound FAD. However, two of these mutants (SPVE and SPVEY) were active at a low level of specific activity. Although they exhibited pyruvate- and ThDP- dependent characteristics, the activity of the two active mutants appears to be FAD-independent. The SPVEY mutant was completely insensitive to the three tested herbicides, even at extremely high concentrations and is also somewhat more thermolabile than the wild type enzyme. The data provided in this work suggest that the RFDDR motif is a possible determinant of the FAD-dependent and herbicide-resistant properties of tobacco AHAS. The SPVEY mutant appears to exhibit catabolic AHAS-like activity.

토양으로부터 분리된 약 1,200여주의 방선균으로부터 세포외로 phytase를 분비 생산하는 방선균 YB-26이 분리되었다. 분리균의 16S rRNA 염기서열을 조사한 결과 Streptomyces속에 속하는 균주의 서열과 상동성이 높았다. G.S.M 배지에서 분리균을 배양하여 얻은 배양 상등액을 ammonium sulfate 분획(15-70%), DEAE-Sepharose column 및 Q-Sepharose column 크로마토그래피를 하여 phytase를 부분 정제하였다. 부분정제된 phytase를 사용하여 효소반응을 실시한 결과 $60^{\circ}C$와 pH 7.0에서 최대활성을 보였으며, pH 6.0-8.0 범위에서 최대활성의 90%이상이 되는 활성을 나타냈다. 이 효소는 열안정성이 높지 않으며, $CaCl_2$의 존재하에서도 열안정성이 변화가 없는 것으로 확인되었다.
