Characterization of the keratinolytic activity of indigenous Bacillus subtilis keratinase
Keratins are water insoluble proteins of our environment. Being extremely resistant to degradation by proteolytic enzymes, keratins are digested mainly by alkali and keratinase enzymes. The aim of present study was to characterize the indigenous keratinase for potentials of keratin-degrading activities. We report the purification and characterization of keratinase from Bacillus subtilis isolate...
متن کاملChloramine mutagenesis in Bacillus subtilis.
Chloramine (which occurs widely as a by-product of sanitary chlorination of water supplies) is shown to be a weak mutagen, when reversion of trpC to trpC in Bacillus subtilis is used as an assay. Some DNA-repair mutants appear to be more sensitive to chloramine, suggesting the involvement of DNA targets in bactericide. The influence of plating media on survival of cells treated with chloramine ...
متن کاملKeratinase Production by Three Bacillus spp. Using Feather Meal and Whole Feather as Substrate in a Submerged Fermentation
Three Bacillus species (B. subtilis LFB-FIOCRUZ 1270, B. subtilis LFB-FIOCRUZ 1273, and B. licheniformis LFB-FIOCRUZ 1274), isolated from the poultry industry, were evaluated for keratinase production using feathers or feather meal as the sole carbon and nitrogen sources in a submerged fermentation. The three Bacillus spp. produced extracellular keratinases and peptidases after 7 days. Feather ...
متن کاملAnalysis of the essential cell division gene ftsL of Bacillus subtilis by mutagenesis and heterologous complementation.
The ftsL gene is required for the initiation of cell division in a broad range of bacteria. Bacillus subtilis ftsL encodes a 13-kDa protein with a membrane-spanning domain near its N terminus. The external C-terminal domain has features of an alpha-helical leucine zipper, which is likely to be involved in the heterodimerization with another division protein, DivIC. To determine what residues ar...
متن کاملIn vitro elaboration Mutagenesis and cloning of the PA gene in Bacillus subtilis
Background: The immune antigen of Bacillus anthracis is a protein that can attach to the surface receptor of all human cells. At the surface of cancer cells, there is a receptor that activates the uPA (Urokinase plasminogen) that do not exist in normal human cells. Objectives: The aim of this study was changing the location of the attachment of the PA gene by a dir...
