Isolation of a Penicillin Acylase Producing E.coli and Kinetic Characterization of the Whole Cell Enzyme Activity
Authors
Abstract:
Penicillin acylase (EC 3.5.1.11) has been a target of study for a long time because of its pivotal role in the deacylation of the penicillin into the 6- aminopenicillanic acid (6-APA) and the side-chain organic acids. This property of penicillin acylase has been exploited commercially for large scale production of 6-APA, which is the key intermediate in the manufacture of semi-synthetic penicillins. Due to the worldwide demand for semi-synthetic penicillins, production of 6-APA has been increased up to 7000 tons in recent years. In this study, Sixty-five strains of E. coli were investigated for penicillin acylase activity using fluorescamine method. The 6-aminopenicillanic acid formed in the reaction mixture was developed on thin layer chromatography. One-minute beta-lactamase test was carried out to follow any trace of penicillinase activity. Only one sample designated as E.coli PPA78 was found to be penicillin acylase producer. The optimal pH and temperature of penicillin acylase activity of the whole cells were determined to be 8.0 and 57° C, respectively. Km value and activation energy of the enzymatic hydrolysis reaction of penicillin G by intracellular enzyme were estimated as 0.004 mmol and 6.2 Kcal/mol, respectively.

full textSimple screening method for isolation of penicillin acylase-producing bacteria.
A new screening method for bacteria capable of producing penicillin acylase is described. The method is based on the use of Serratia marcescens sensitive to 6-aminopenicillanic acid but comparatively resistant to benzylpenicillin. It is simple, quite specific, and requires no special equipment. It can also be used to screen for phenoxymethylpenicillin acylase activity. We also suggest an acidim...

wuthering heights and the concept of marality/a sociological study of the novel
to discuss my point, i have collected quite a number of articles, anthologies, and books about "wuthering heights" applying various ideas and theories to this fantastic story. hence, i have come to believe that gadamer and jauss are rightful when they claim that "the individaul human mind is the center and origin of all meaning," 3 that reading literature is a reader-oriented activity, that it ...
