چکیده

In a cell-free system prepared by lysis of protoplasts of Cephalosporium acremonium mutant M-0198, isopenicillin N was converted into a penicillinase-resistant material that behaved like deacetoxycephalosporin C on high-pressure liquid chromatography analysis. This activity was found to be unstable to storage at -80 degrees C; 70-80% of the activity was lost after 1 day.

Cell-free ring expansion of penicillin N to deacetoxycephalosporin C by Cephalosporium acremonium CW-19 and its mutants.

To examine microbiological ring expansion of penicillin N to a cephalosporin, we obtained five mutants of Cephalosporium acremonium blocked in beta-lactam antibiotic biosynthesis from 2500 survivors of mutagenesis. In submerged fermentation, mutants M-0198, M-0199, and M-2351 produced no beta-lactam antibiotic (type A), whereas mutants M-1443 and M-1836 formed penicillin N but not cephalosporin...

Site-directed mutagenesis of proline-285 to leucine in Cephalosporium acremonium isopenicillin-N-synthase affects catalysis and increases soluble expression at higher temperatures.

The conversion of delta-(L-alpha-aminoadipyl)-L-cysteinyl-D-valine (ACV) to isopenicillin N is dependant on the catalytic action of isopenicillin N-synthase (IPNS), an important enzyme in the penicillin and cephalosporin biosynthetic pathway. One of the amino acid residues suggested by the Aspergillus nidulans IPNS crystal structure for interaction with the valine isopropyl group of ACV is prol...

Replacement of tyrosine-197 and the corresponding tyrosine-195 to isoleucine in Cephalosporium acremonium and Streptomyces clavuligerus isopenicillin N synthase.

Isopenicillin N synthase (IPNS) is one of the key enzymes in the penicillin and cephalosporin biosynthetic pathway which catalyses the conversion of delta-(L-alpha-aminoadipyl)-L-cysteinyl-D-valine to isopenicillin N. The IPNS from Penicillium chrysogenum 23X-80-269-37-2, a high penicillin V-producer, was found to possess an isoleucine residue instead of tyrosine at position 195. An attempt to ...

Further studies on microbiological ring-expansion of penicillin N.

The rate of microbiological ring-expansion of penicillin N to deacetoxycephalosporin C using protoplast lysates of the antibiotic-negative mutant Cephalosporium acremonium M-0198 has been increased some 70-fold over that of our earlier system. We confirmed the stimulatory effects of FeSO4 and ascorbate described by Hook et al. (Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun. 87: 258, 1979); the optimum concentr...

Copurification and characterization of deacetoxycephalosporin C synthetase/hydroxylase from Cephalosporium acremonium.

Deacetoxycephalosporin C synthetase (expandase), which catalyzes ring expansion of penicillin N to deacetoxycephalosporin C (DAOC), has been stabilized in vitro and purified to near homogeneity from the industrially important fungus Cephalosporium acremonium. Throughout the purification, the expandase activity remained physically associated with and in a constant ratio of 7:1 to DAOC hydroxylas...
