Purification and characterization of mannitol dehydrogenase from Aspergillus parasiticus.
Mannitol dehydrogenase, NADP specific (EC 1.1.1.138), was purified from mycelium of Aspergillus parasiticus (1-11-105 Whl). The enzyme had a molecular weight of 1.4 X 10(5) and was composed of four subunits of apparently equal size. The substrate specificity was limited to D-mannitol, D-glucitol, D-arabinitol, 1-deoxy-D-mannitol, and 1-deoxy-D-glucitol. Zinc ion was a powerful inhibitor of the ...
متن کاملPurification and preliminary characterization of alcohol dehydrogenase from Aspergillus nidulans.
Aspergillus alcohol dehydrogenase is produced in response to growth in the presence of a wide variety of inducers, of which the most effective are short-chain alcohols and ketones, e.g. butan-2-one and propan-2-ol. The enzyme can be readily extracted from fresh or freeze-dried cells and purified to homogeneity on Blue Sepharose in a single step by using specific elution with NAD+ and pyrazole. ...
متن کاملPurification and characterisation of mannitol dehydrogenase from Lactobacillus sanfranciscensis.
Mannitol dehydrogenase (MDH) was purified and characterised from Lactobacillus sanfranciscensis. Two peptide fragments of MDH were N-terminally sequenced for the first time in the genus Lactobacillus. The purified enzyme had an apparent molecular mass of 44 kDa and catalysed both the reduction of fructose to mannitol and the oxidation of mannitol to fructose. The K(m) value for the reduction re...
متن کاملSpatial and developmental differentiation of mannitol dehydrogenase and mannitol-1-phosphate dehydrogenase in Aspergillus niger.
The presence of a mannitol cycle in fungi has been subject to discussion for many years. Recent studies have found no evidence for the presence of this cycle and its putative role in regenerating NADPH. However, all enzymes of the cycle could be measured in cultures of Aspergillus niger. In this study we have analyzed the localization of two enzymes from the pathway, mannitol dehydrogenase and ...
متن کاملCharacterization of aflatoxigenic Aspergillus flavus and A. parasiticus strain isolates from animal feedstuffs in northeastern Iran
Aflatoxins are secondary toxic metabolites produced by some Aspergillus spp. particularly, Aspergillus flavus and A. parasiticus that contaminate food and feed. The objective of this study was to evaluate the contamination of feedstuffs with Aspergillus spp. and detect genes involved in the aflatoxin biosynthesis pathway of A. flavus and A. parasiticus isolates. A total of 110 cow feed samples ...
