Purification and kinetics of the PHB depolymerase of Microbacterium paraoxydans RZS6 isolated from a dumping yard.

ABSTRACT: Poly-?-hydroxybutyrate (PHB) depolymerase is known to decompose PHB, biodegradable polymers and therefore has great commercial significance in the bioplastic sector. However, reports on PHB depolymerases from isolates obtained from plastic-contaminated sites that reflect the potential of the source organism is scarce. In this study, we evaluated the production of extracellular PHB depolymerase from Microbacterium paraoxydans RZS6 isolated from the plastic-contaminated site in the municipal area of Shahada, Maharashtra, India, for the first time. The isolate was identified using 16S rRNA gene sequencing, gas chromatographic analysis of fatty acid methyl esters (GC-FAME), and BIOLOG method. Ithydrolyzed PHB on minimal salt medium (MSM) containing PHB as the only source of carbon. The isolate produced PHB depolymerase at 45°C during 48 h of incubation. The enzyme was purified most efficiently using octyl-sepharose CL-4B column, with the highest purification yield of 6.675 Umg-1mL-1. The activity of the enzyme was enhanced in the presence of Ca2+ and Mg2+ ions but inhibited by Fe2+ (1 mM) ions and mercaptoethanol (1000 rpm). the nzyme kinetic analysis revealed that the enzyme was a metalloenzyme; requiring Mg2+ ions, that showed optimum enzyme activity at 30°C (mesophilic) and under neutrophilic (pH 7) conditions. Scale-up from the shake-flask level to a laboratory-scale bioreactor further enhanced the enzyme yield by 0.809 UmL-1. The molecular weight of the enzyme (40 kDa), as estimated by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, closely resembled the PHB depolymerase of Aureobacterium saperdae. Our findings highlighted the applicability of M. paraoxydans as a producer of extracellular PHB depolymerase having potential of degrading PHB under diverse conditions.

Project description:There are numerous reports on poly-β-hydroxybutyrate (PHB) depolymerases produced by various microorganisms isolated from various habitats, however, reports on PHB depolymerase production by an isolate from plastic rich sites scares. Although PHB has attracted commercial significance, the inefficient production and recovery methods, inefficient purification of PHB depolymerase and lack of ample knowledge on PHB degradation by PHB depolymerase have hampered its large scale commercialization. Therefore, to ensure the biodegradability of biopolymers, it becomes imperative to study the purification of the biodegrading enzyme system. We report the production, purification, and characterization of extracellular PHB depolymerase from Stenotrophomonas sp. RZS7 isolated from a dumping yard rich in plastic waste. The isolate produced extracellular PHB depolymerase in the mineral salt medium (MSM) at 30°C during 4 days of incubation under shaking. The enzyme was purified by three methods namely ammonium salt precipitation, column chromatography, and solvent purification. Among these purification methods, the enzyme was best purified by column chromatography on the Octyl-Sepharose CL-4B column giving optimum yield (0.7993 Umg-1mL-1). The molecular weight of purified PHB depolymerase was 40 kDa. Studies on the assessment of biodegradation of PHB in liquid culture medium and under natural soil conditions confirmed PHB biodegradation potential of Stenotrophomonas sp. RZS7. The results obtained in Fourier-Transform Infrared (FTIR) analysis, High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) study and Gas Chromatography Mass-Spectrometry (GC-MS) analysis confirmed the biodegradation of PHB in liquid medium by Stenotrophomonas sp. RZS7. Changes in surface morphology of PHB film in soil burial as observed in Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy (FESEM) analysis confirmed the biodegradation of PHB under natural soil environment. The isolate was capable of degrading PHB and it resulted in 87.74% biodegradation. A higher rate of degradation under the natural soil condition is the result of the activity of soil microbes that complemented the biodegradation of PHB by Stenotrophomonas sp. RZS7.

Project description:Angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibition offers a useful means of managing hypertension, because ACE inhibitors (ACEIs) are known to serve as agents with antihypertensive properties in addition to generating positive metabolic and cardioprotective outcomes. However, current ACEIs are linked to adverse consequences, and so there is a requirement for effective but safer compounds, which might be achieved through chemical synthesis or the isolation of naturally obtained bioactive molecules. Protein hydrolysates with ACEI activity can be produced by the combined pepsin and pancreatin proteolysis (to mimic gastrointestinal digestion) of longan seed protein. This study examined longan seed protein hydrolysates, obtained from a sequential 3 h digestion with pepsin and then pancreatin. The resulting hydrolysate underwent sequential ultrafiltration membrane fractionation with a 10, 5, and 3 kDa molecular weight cut-off (MWCO). The permeate derived from the <3 kDa MWCO demonstrated the highest ACEI activity. This permeate subsequently underwent separation by reverse-phase high performance liquid chromatography to give the main fractions on the basis of differing elution times. The ACEI IC50 values for these fractions were then identified. Quadrupole time-of-flight tandem mass spectrometry was employed to determine the peptide mass for the major peak (F 5), which was shown to be Glu-Thr-Ser-Gly-Met-Lys-Pro-Thr-Glu-Leu (ETSGMKPTEL) and Ile-Ser-Ser-Met-Gly-Ile-Leu-Val-Cys-Leu (ISSMGILVCL). These two peptides were stable over a temperature and pH range of -20 to 90 °C and 2-12, respectively, for 60 min. From the Lineweaver-Burk plot, both peptides inhibited ACE non-competitively. Molecular docking simulation of the peptides with ACE supported the formation of hydrogen bonds by the peptides with the ACE active pockets. This research indicates that it may be possible to use both of these peptides or longan seed protein hydrolysates in order to create ingredients for functional foods, or to produce pharmaceutical products, capable of lowering hypertension.
