چکیده

Acid phosphatase from yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae was purified, and its physicochemical and kinetic properties were investigated. The sedimentation coefficient has been determined to be s0(20,w) = 13.6 S. The diffusion constant has been found to be 3.9 X 10(-7) cm2s-1, and the calculated partial specific volume was v = 0.663 cm3/g. From these data, a molecular weight of 252,000 was calculated. Electrophoresis on gel slabs, with a linear concentration gradient of polyacrylamide (4-30%), showed size heterogeneity of the native enzyme preparation and indicated an apparent molecular weight in the range of 170,000 to 360,000. In the presence of sodium dodecyl sulfate, the molecular weight was in the range of 82,000 to 165,000, indicating dimeric structure of the native enzyme, which was confirmed by cross-linking experiments. Isoelectric focusing demonstrated charge heterogeneity of enzyme preparation. From CD spectrum it was calculated that the enzyme contains about 29% of alpha-helical structure. Excitation at 278 nm gave an emission fluorescence spectrum with a maximum at 340 nm. Amino acid analysis revealed a high content of aspartic acid, serine, and threonine. Glycine is found as the NH2-terminal amino acid. Initial velocity dependence on substrate concentration, as well as on pH, and thermostability studies indicated the presence of at least two enzyme forms in the preparation.

Kinetics Studies Impact of Initial pH and Addition of Yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae on Biogas Production from Tofu Wastewater in Indonesia

The purpose of this work was to study the effect of initial pH and yeast Saccharomyces Cerevisiae on biogas production from tofu wastewater (TW). The initial pH was varied in ranging of 5 – 9 in substrate without yeast (T5-T9) and with yeast (TY5-TY9). The results showed that optimum initial pH was 8. The maximum biogas was resulted in T8 (275 mL) and TY8 (421 mL). Yeast addition increased tota...
