Popis: | The Class II fructose 1,6-bisphosphate aldolase from the Rice Blast causative agent Magnaporthe grisea was subcloned in the Escherichia coli vector pT7-7. The enzyme was overexpressed using fed-batch fermentation in a small bench-top reactor. A total of 275 g of cells and 1.3 g of highly purified enzyme with a specific activity of 70 U/mg were obtained from a 1.5L culture. The purified enzyme is a homodimer of 39.6 kDa subunits with a zinc ion at the active site. Kinetic characterization indicates that the enzyme has a K(m) of 51 microM, a k(cat) of 46 s(-1), and a pH optimum of 7.8 for fructose 1,6-bisphosphate cleavage. The fermentation system procedure reported exemplifies the potential of using a lab-scale bioreactor for the large scale production of recombinant enzymes. |
