Thermostable Artificial Enzyme Isolated by In Vitro Selection
Artificial enzymes hold the potential to catalyze valuable reactions not observed in nature. One approach to build artificial enzymes introduces mutations into an existing protein scaffold to enable a new catalytic activity. This process commonly results in a simultaneous reduction of protein stability as an undesired side effect. While protein stability can be increased through techniques like...
متن کاملA Thermostable Bilirubin-Oxidizing Enzyme from Activated Sludge Isolated by a Metagenomic Approach
A gene coding for a multicopper oxidase (BopA) was identified through the screening of a metagenomic library constructed from wastewater treatment activated sludge. The recombinant BopA protein produced in Escherichia coli exhibited oxidation activity toward 2,2'-azino-bis-(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonate) (ABTS) in the presence of copper, suggesting that BopA is laccase. A bioinformatic ana...
متن کاملBiotransformation of Sucrose by Using Thermostable and Alkaline Fructosyltransferase Enzyme Isolated from Marine Aspergillus Niger
The biotransformation of sucrose to fructooligosaccharides was investigated using the catalytic action of fructosyltransferase originated from marine Aspergillus niger, using whole cell immobilization. The biomass production and enzymatic reaction were carried out in shake flask. A fructosyltransferase enzyme producing fungi locally isolated from sea water from South East cost of India, by usin...
متن کاملProduction of thermostable protease enzyme in wastewater sludge using thermophilic bacterial strains isolated from sludge.
The volume of sludge produced annually is very high and poses serious disposal problems. The traditional methods of sludge disposal produce secondary pollutants. Therefore, the alternate or suitable solution is reuse of sludge in an ecofriendly approach. Biotechnology is an interesting tool to add value to the processes involved in wastewater and wastewater sludge disposal/reuse. In this contex...
متن کاملIdentification and characterization of a novel thermostable pyrethroid-hydrolyzing enzyme isolated through metagenomic approach
BACKGROUND Pyrethroid pesticides are broad-spectrum pest control agents in agricultural production. Both agricultural and residential usage is continuing to grow, leading to the development of insecticide resistance in the pest and toxic effects on a number of nontarget organisms. Thus, it is necessary to hunt suitable enzymes including hydrolases for degrading pesticide residues, which is an e...
