Characteristics of a Novel Highly Thermostable and Extremely Thermophilic Alkalitolerant Amylase from Hyperthermophilic Bacillus Strain HUTBS71
Problem statement: This study reported the purification and characterization of a novel highly thermostable alkaline amylase from a newly isolated Bacillus strain HUTBS71. Approach: The enzyme was purified using ammonium sulfate precipitation, ion exchange and gel filtration chromatography. Results: Maximum amylase activity (72 U mL) was obtained at 100°C after 10 min of incubation. The enzyme ...
متن کاملProduction of a thermostable extracellular amylase from thermophilic Bacillus species
Isolation and identification of thermophilic Bacillus sp was carried out from a soil sample. The cells were cultivated in a medium containing soluble starch as sole carbon source. The addition of calcium (10 mM) or peptone (1%) and yeast extract (0.5%) to the medium shortened the lag period and improved the growth and amylase synthesis. The optimum temperature for amylase production was detecte...
متن کاملThermostable cytochrome P450 steroid hydroxylase from a thermophilic bacillus strain.
The ability to hydroxylate steroids is not common amongst bacilli, but a thermophilic strain hydroxylates progesterone to form both the 6 a and 60 derivatives. The hydroxylation products formed at 55°C were extracted, purified by TLC and HPLC and identified by 'HNMR. The hydroxylation was inhibited by ketoconazole and gave a reduced CO spectrum peak at 449 nm and a progesterone binding spectrum...
متن کاملPurification and Characterization of a Novel Thermostable and Acid Stable α-Amylase from Bacillus Sp. Iranian S1
This study reports the purification and biochemical characterization of thermostable and acidic-pH-stable α-amylase from Bacillus sp. Iranian S1 isolated from the desert soil (Gandom-e-Beryan in Lut desert, Iran). Amylase production was found to be growth associated. Maximum enzyme production was in exponential phase with activity 2.93 U ml-1 at 50°C and pH 5. The enzyme was purified by isoprop...
متن کاملscreening the thermophilic and hyperthermophilic bacterial population of three iranian hot-springs to detect the thermostable α- amylase producing strain
background: screening is a routine procedure for isolation of microorganisms which are able to produce special metabolites. purified thermostable α-amylase from bacterial sources is widely used in different industries. in this study we analyzed samples collected from three different hot springs in iran to detect any strains capable of producing thermostable α-amylase. materials and methods: hot...
