epr, which encodes glycylglycine endopeptidase resistance, is homologous to femAB and affects serine content of peptidoglycan cross bridges in Staphylococcus capitis and Staphylococcus aureus.
Staphylococcus capitis EPK1 produces a glycylglycine endopeptidase, ALE-1 (M. Sugai, T. Fujiwara, T. Akiyama, M. Ohara, H. Komatsuzawa, S. Inoue, and H. Suginaka, J. Bacteriol. 179:1193-1202, 1997), which hydrolyzes interpeptide pentaglycine chains of cell wall peptidoglycan of S. aureus. Characterizations of the enzyme activity and cloning of ale-1 revealed that ALE-1 is very similar to prolys...

متن کاملAffinity Purification and Characterization of Recombinant Bacillus sphaericus Phenylalanine Dehydrogenase Produced by pET Expression Vector System
Cloning and expression of the L-phenylalanine dehydrogenase gene, from B. sphaericus in E. coli were done. The gene was cloned in the vector pET16b and transformed into E. coli BL21 (DE3). The functional form of the L-phenylalanine dehydrogenase enzyme was purified by affinity purification techniques, taking advantage of the ability of this enzyme to bind to the nucleotide site affinity dye, Re...
متن کاملPurification and properties of lysozyme produced by Staphylococcus aureus.
A method based on cold ethyl alcohol fractionation at different pH levels and ionic strengths and on gel filtration on a Sephadex G-200 column was used to concentrate and purify lysozyme from the culture supernatant fluid of Staphylococcus aureus strain 524. The final, nondialyzable product exhibited a 163-fold rise in specific activity over that of the starting material. Staphylococcal lysozym...
متن کاملPurification and biochemical characterization of a novel glutamyl endopeptidase secreted by a clinical isolate of Staphylococcus aureus.
Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) is a ubiquitous Gram-positive pathogenic bacterium responsible for a majority of skin infections and toxic shock syndromes. In this study, a 34-kDa glutamate-specific serine protease (named VSPase) secreted by a clinical isolate of S. aureus sp. strain C-66 was purified and characterized, and VSPase-encoding gene was also cloned by PCR. VSPase enzyme purified f...
