چکیده

Guirard, Beverly M. (University of California, Berkeley), and Esmond E. Snell. Nutritional requirements of Lactobacillus 30a for growth and histidine decarboxylase production. J. Bacteriol. 87:370-376. 1964.-The nutritional requirements of Lactobacillus 30a include each of the naturally occurring amino acids, several B vitamins, ascorbic acid, glucose, acetate, and oleate. The nutritional requirements for optimal histidine decarboxylase production (up to 900 muliters of CO(2) per hr per mg of cells) differ to some extent from those for optimal growth. Wholly synthetic and partially defined media are described which produce high enzyme activity, together with rapid and luxuriant growth.

pH-induced structural changes regulate histidine decarboxylase activity in Lactobacillus 30a.

Histidine decarboxylase (HDC) from Lactobacillus 30a produces histamine that is essential to counter waste acids, and to optimize cell growth. The HDC trimer is active at low pH and inactive at neutral to alkaline pH. We have solved the X-ray structure of HDC at pH 8 and revealed the novel mechanism of pH regulation. At high pH helix B is unwound, destroying the substrate binding pocket. At aci...

Structure and cooperativity of a T-state mutant of histidine decarboxylase from Lactobacillus 30a.

Histidine decarboxylase (HDC) from Lactobacillus 30a converts histidine to histamine, a process that enables the bacteria to maintain the optimum pH range for cell growth. HDC is regulated by pH; it is active at low pH and inactive at neutral to alkaline pH. The X-ray structure of HDC at pH 8 revealed that a helix was disordered, resulting in the disruption of the substrate-binding site. The HD...

Manual and automated sequencing of peptides isolated from tryptic, chymotryptic, and Staphylococcus aureus V8 protease digests of the beta chain of histidine decarboxylase from Lactobacillus 30a have established the following sequence for the wild type protein: NH2-Ser-Gly-Leu-Asp-Ala-Lys-Leu-Asn-Lys-Leu-Gly-Val-Asp-Arg-Ile-Ala-Ile-Ser-Pro -Tyr-Lys-Gln-Trp-Thr-Arg-Gly-Tyr-Met-Glu-Pro-Gly-Asn-Il...

Histidine Decarboxylase of LactobaciZZus 30 a COMPARATIVE PROPERTIES OF WILD TYPE AND

Prohistidine d carboxylase, previously demonstrated only in mutant 3 of Lactobacillus 30a (P. A. Recsei and E. E. Snell(1973) Biochemistry 12,365-371), is also formed (together with active enzyme) during incubation of nongrowing cultures of wild type Lactobacillus 30a with histidine. Activation of purified wild type proenzyme occurs about three times faster than that of the mutant 3 proenzyme...

Three-component lysine/ornithine decarboxylation system in Lactobacillus saerimneri 30a.

Lactic acid bacteria play a pivotal role in many food fermentations and sometimes represent a health threat due to the ability of some strains to produce biogenic amines that accumulate in foods and cause trouble following ingestion. These strains carry specific enzymatic systems catalyzing the uptake of amino acid precursors (e.g., ornithine and lysine), the decarboxylation inside the cell, an...
