Release of extracellular enzymes from Bacillus amyloliquefaciens.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Washed-cell suspensions of Bacillus amyloliquefaciens secrete significant amounts of the extracellular enzymes alpha-amylase and protease for about 15 min in the almost complete absence of protein synthesis. This apparently represents release of preformed enzyme en route to secretion. The release was independent of energy but was affected by temperature. Pulse-labeling experiments showed that newly synthesized enzyme molecules are either immediately released into the external medium or equilibrate with the preformed enzyme prior to eventual secretion. The results are compatible with a model of secretion whereby enzyme molecules emerging from the cell membrane become temporarily restricted by the cell wall so that a small pool of active enzyme accumulates in this region.

Extracellular phytase activity of Bacillus amyloliquefaciens FZB45 contributes to its plant-growth-promoting effect.
Several Bacillus strains belonging to the B. subtilis/amyloliquefaciens group isolated from plant-pathogen-infested soil possess plant-growth-promoting activity [Krebs, B. et al. (1998) J Plant Dis Prot 105, 181-197]. Three out of the four strains investigated were identified as B. amyloliquefaciens and were able to degrade extracellular phytate (myo-inositol hexakisphosphate). The highest extr...
متن کاملRecruiting a new strategy to improve levan production in Bacillus amyloliquefaciens
Microbial levan is an important biopolymer with considerable potential in food and medical applications. Bacillus amyloliquefaciens NK-ΔLP strain can produce high-purity, low-molecular-weight levan, but production is relatively low. To enhance the production of levan, six extracellular protease genes (bpr, epr, mpr, vpr, nprE and aprE), together with the tasA gene (encoding the major biofilm ma...
متن کاملBinase-like guanyl-preferring ribonucleases are new members of Bacillus PhoP regulon.
Extracellular low-molecular weight guanyl-preferring ribonucleases (LMW RNases) of Bacillus sp. comprise a group of hydrolytic enzymes that share highly similar structural and catalytic characteristics with barnase, a ribonuclease from Bacillus amyloliquefaciens, and binase, a ribonuclease from Bacillus intermedius. Although the physical-chemical and catalytic properties of Bacillus guanyl-pref...
متن کاملIsolation and characterization of a polynucleotide phosphorylase from Bacillus amyloliquefaciens.
Bacillus amyloliquefaciens BaM-2 produces large amounts of extracellular enzymes, and the synthesis of these proteins appears to be dependent upon abnormal ribonucleic acid metabolism. A polynucleotide phosphorylase (nucleoside diphosphate:polynucleotide nucleotidyl transferase) was identified, purified, and characterized from this strain. The purification scheme involved cell disruption, phase...
