چکیده
We report the presence of l-glutamine aminohydrolase activity (EC 3.5.1.2) in extracts of B. licheniformis A5. The activity was induced by glutamine and repressed by glucose.

Nitrogen catabolite repression of the L-asparaginase of Bacillus licheniformis.
We report the presence of a single L-asparagine aminohydrolase activity (EC 3.5.1.1) in extracts of Bacillus licheniformis A5. The synthesis of the enzyme was apparently under nitrogen catabolite repression control.
متن کاملEfficient production of L-asparaginase from Bacillus licheniformis with low-glutaminase activity: optimization, scale up and acrylamide degradation studies.
L-Asparaginase has potential as an anti-cancer drug and for prevention of acrylamide formation in fried and baked foods. Production of the enzyme by Bacillus licheniformis (RAM-8) was optimized by process engineering using a statistical modeling approach and a maximum yield of 32.26 IU/ml was achieved. The L-asparaginase exhibited glutaminase activity of only 0.8 IU/ml and would therefore be le...
متن کاملIn Silico Analysis of Glutaminase from Different Species of Escherichia and Bacillus
Background: Glutaminase (EC 3.5.1.2) catalyzes the hydrolytic degradation of L-glutamine to L-glutamic acid and has been introduced for cancer therapy in recent years. The present study was an in silico analysis of glutaminase to further elucidate its structure and physicochemical properties.Methods: Forty glutaminase protein sequences from different species of Escherichia and Bacillus obtained...
متن کاملTwo-step purification and partial characterization of an extra cellular α-amylase from Bacillus licheniformis
The aim of this study was production and partial purification of α-amylase enzyme by Bacillus licheniformis. B. Licheniformis was allowed to grow in broth culture for purpose of inducing α-amylase enzyme. Optimal conditions for amylase production by B. Licheniformis are incubation period of 120 h, temperature of 37 °C and pH 7.0. The α-amylase enzyme was purified by ion exchange chromatography ...
متن کاملProduction of Extracellular Protease and Determination of Optimal Condition by Bacillus Licheniformis BBRC 100053 (RESEARCH NOTE)
The production of protease by Bacillus licheniformis BBRC 100053 was studied. The most appropriate medium for the growth and protease production is composed of: lactose 1%, yeast extract 0.5%, peptone 0.5%, KH2PO4 0.1%, MgSO4.7H2O 0.02%. Enzyme production corresponded with growth and reached a maximums level (589 U/ml) during the stationary phase at 35°C, pH equivalent to 10 and with 150 rpm af...
