Characterization of a Protease from a Psychrotroph, Pseudomonas fluorescens 114.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A psychrotrophic bacterium isolated from river sediment was identified as Pseudomonas fluorescens 114. It grew at 0 degrees C and optimally at 20 degrees C. The bacterium produced a protease with a molecular weight of 47,000, which was stable in the pH range of 5 to 9 and worked optimally between pH 6.5 and 10. Activity was optimal at 35 degrees C and was lost immediately at 50 degrees C and after 5 min at 45 degrees C. At 0, 10, and 20 degrees C, 24, 38, and 57% of optimal activity were observed, respectively.

Production of Recombinant Proline Dehydrogenase Enzyme from Pseudomonas fluorescens pf-5 in E. coli System
Proline dehydrogenase (ProDH; 1.5.99.8) belongs to superfamily of amino acid dehydrogenase, which plays a significant role in the metabolic pathway from proline to glutamate. The goal of this research was gene cloning and characterization of ProDH enzyme from Pseudomonas fluorescens pf-5 strain. The gene encoding ProDH was isolated by means of PCR amplification and cloned in an IPTG inducible T...

A novel neutrophilic metalloprotease was isolated from Pseudomonas sp. DR89 isolate which was identified ina mineral spring in Iran. The enzyme was purified from the isolate to 21-folds in a three-step procedure involving ammonium sulfate precipitation, Q-Sepharose ionic exchange and Sephadex G-100 gel filtrationchromatography. Resuts showed that the enzyme was active at high temper...
متن کاملPseudomonas fluorescens proliferates in a mouse organ homogenate at low temperature.
In this study we observed the proliferation of Pseudomonas fluorescens (P. fluorescens) in mouse organ homogenates at 4 degrees C. P. fluorescens secreted a protease possessing properties different from those of the mammalian tissue proteases. The specificity of this protease required a basic amino acid residue at the P1 position at a pH optimum of 6.0. The specificity of the protease was simil...
متن کاملTemperature on In Vivo and In Vitro Protein Synthesis in Escherichia coli and Pseudomonas
The effects of temperature on protein synthesis by Escherichia coli, a mesophile, and Pseudomonas fluorescens, a psychrotroph, were investigated by using whole-cell and cell extract preparations. After shifts to 5°C, protein was synthesized at a slowly decreasing rate for 1 h by both organisms, after which P. fluorescens synthesized protein at a new rate corresponding to its 5°C growth rate, in...
