The thermophilic and thermostable alkaline phosphatase was purified to near homogeneity from the osmotic lysis of Thermus caldophilus GK24, The purified enzyme had an apparent molecular mass of 108, 000 Da and consisted of two subunits of 54,000 Da. lsoelectric-focusing analysis of the purified enzyme showed a pi of 7.3. The enzyme contained two Cys residues, and its amino acids composition was quite different from that of Thermus aquaticus YT-1 alkaline phosphatase and Escherichia coli alkaline phosphatase, The optimum pH and temperature of the enzyme were 11.0-11.5 and $80^{\circ}C$ respectively. The enzyme was stable in the pH range of 9.0-12.0 at $25^{\circ}C$ for 36 h. and the half-life at $80^{\circ}C$ (pH 11.0) was 6 h. The enzyme was activated by $MgCl_2$ and inhibited by EDTA. With ${\rho}-nitrophenyl\;phosphate\;({\rho}NPP)$ as the substrate, the enzyme had a Michaelis constant $(K_m) $of $3.6{\times}10^{-5}M$, The enzyme preferentially hydrolyzed the phosphomonoester bond of AMP in ribonucleotides and glycerophosphate.

내열성 alkaline phosphatase의 탐색을 위해 극도호열균중에서 Thermus caldophilus GK24 균주를 선정하였다. 이 균주를 이용하여 basal salts에 sodium glutamate, bactotryptone, glucose 및 yeast extract를 첨가시킨 배지에서 alkaline phosphatase 생산을 검토하였다. 그 결과 sodium glutamate가 alkaline phosphatase 유도에 효과적인 것으로 판명되었다. Alkaline phosphatase 생산을 위한 최적유도용 배지는 basal salts에 0.3% sodium glutamate, 0.2% bactotryptone, 0.5% glucose를 첨가한 것으로 효소활성은 기본배지보다 약 6배, 표준배지 보다는 약 27.5배 증가하였다. T. caldophilus GK24 alkaline phosphatase는 유도효소로 판명되었다. 무기인산 결핍시에 효소가 생산되며, 생육배지에 무기인산을 첨가하면 효소합성에 저해효과가 있었다.

The gene encoding Thermus sp. T351 alkaline phosphatase (T351 APase) was cloned and sequenced. The gene consisted of 1,503 bp coding for a protein with 500 amino acid residues including a signal peptide. The deduced amino acid sequence of T351 APase showed relatively low similarity to other Thermus APases. The T351 APase gene was expressed under the control of the T7lac promoter on the expression vector pET-22b(+) in Escherichia coli BL21 (DE3). The expressed enzyme was purified by heat treatment, and $UNO^{TM}$ Q and $HiTrap^{TM}$ Heparin HP column chromatographies. The purified enzyme exhibited high activity at extremely alkaline pHs, reaching a maximum at pH 12.0. The optimum temperature of the enzyme was $80^{\circ}C$, and the half-life at $85^{\circ}C$ was approximately 103 min. The enzyme activity was found to be dependent on metal ions: the addition of $Mg^{2+}$ and $CO^{2+}$ increased the activity, whereas EDTA inhibited it. With p-nitrophenyl phosphate as the substrate, T351 APase had a Michaelis constant ($K_{m}$) of $3.9{\times}10^{-5}M$. The enzyme catalyzed the hydrolysis of a wide variety of phosphorylated compounds.

대한민국 동해안 울진 앞 바닷물로부터 50-C로 명명한 해양 미생물을 분리하였다. 50-C 균주는 그람-음성, 호기성 세균이며, 노란색 집락을 형성하고, 극성편모를 갖는 박테리아이다. 이 균주는 $20-50^{\circ}C$, pH 5.5-8.5 범위에서 자라며, 비교적 고온인 $40-50^{\circ}C$, pH 6.5-7.5, 2% (w/v) NaCl에서 최적 성장을 보인다. 16S rRNA 유전자 서열 분석결과 50C-3 균주는 Ruegeria 속에 속하는 R. intermedia CC-GIMAT-$2^T$, R. lacuscaerulensis ITI-$1157^T$의 16S rRNA 유전자 서열과 각각 99.4%, 96.98% 상동성을 보였다. 그러나 50C-3 균주는 운동성, 탄소이용능력, 효소생산능력 등의 생리학적 특성에서 두 균주와는 명확히 다른 특성을 보였다. 50C-3 균주의 DNA G+C content는 66.7 mol%이고, 주요한 respiratory quinone은 ubiquinone-10 (Q-10)이었다. 이와 같은 형태학적, 생리학적, 유전학적 특성을 비교하여, 50C-3 균주는 R. intermedia CC-GIMAT-$2^T$와 같은 종에 속하는 새로운 변종으로 판단되며 Ruegeria sp. 50C-3으로 명명하였다(KCTC23890 =DSM25519). 50C-3 균주는 cellulase, agarase 활성은 없었지만, alkaline phosphatase, ${\alpha}$-galactosidase, ${\beta}$-galactosidase를 생산하였고 이들 모두 $50^{\circ}C$ 에서도 활성이 좋은 내열성 효소일 것으로 판단되었다. 특히, ${\beta}$-galactosidase의 경우 $37^{\circ}C$에서 보다 $50^{\circ}C$에서의 활성이 1.9배 증가하여 산업적으로 활용성이 클 것으로 예상된다.
