Heparinase production by Flavobacterium heparinum.
Heparinase production by Flavobacterium heparinum in complex protein digest medium, with heparin employed as the inducer, has been studied and improved. The maximum productivity of heparinase has been increased 156-fold over that achieved by previously published methods to 375 U/liter per h in the complex medium. Rapid deactivation of heparinase activity, both specific and total, was observed a...
متن کاملCloning and expression of heparinase I gene from Flavobacterium heparinum.
Heparinases, enzymes that cleave heparin and heparin sulfate, are implicated in physiological and pathological functions ranging from wound healing to tumor metastasis and are useful in deheparinization therapies. We report the cloning of the heparinase I (EC 4.2.2.7) gene from Flavobacterium heparinum using PCR. Two degenerate oligonucleotides, based on the amino acid sequences derived from tr...
متن کاملExpression in Escherichia coli, purification and characterization of heparinase I from Flavobacterium heparinum.
The use of heparin for extracorporeal therapies has been problematical due to haemorrhagic complications; as a consequence, heparinase I from Flavobacterium heparinum is used for the determination of plasma heparin and for elimination of heparin from circulation. Here we report the expression of recombinant heparinase I in Escherichia coli, purification to homogeneity and characterization of th...
متن کاملIsolation and expression in Escherichia coli of hepB and hepC, genes coding for the glycosaminoglycan-degrading enzymes heparinase II and heparinase III, respectively, from Flavobacterium heparinum.
Upon induction with heparin, Flavobacterium heparinum synthesizes and secretes into its periplasmic space heparinase I (EC 4.2.2.7), heparinase II, and heparinase III (heparitinase; EC 4.2.2.8). Heparinase I degrades heparin, and heparinase II degrades both heparin and heparan sulfate, while heparinase III degrades heparan sulfate predominantly. We isolated the genes encoding heparinases II and...
متن کاملSpecificity studies on the heparin lyases from Flavobacterium heparinum.
An understanding of the substrate specificity study of the heparin lyases (heparinase and heparitinases) is crucial for elucidation of the sequence of heparin and heparan sulfate. Four chemically modified heparins have been used to study the substrate specificity of the three heparin lyases. These modified heparins include the N- and O-desulfated and then specifically N-sulfated or N-acetylated...
