چکیده

background: cholesterol oxidase (cho) has various clinical and industrial applications. recently, microbial cho have received a great attention for their wide usage in medicine. here, taxonomic characterizations of isolated strain from soil, optimization of the conditions for cho production and biochemical characterizations of produced cho enzyme were described. finally, cho gene was cloned into a cloning vector. methods: various samples were collected and cultivated in a screening medium consisting of cholesterol. for isolation of cho-producing bacteria, well-grown colonies were inoculated into an optimized medium. different biochemical and microbiological tests were performed on isolated bacteria to identify their properties. for phylogenic analysis, a partial sequence of l6s rrna was amplified by pcr using universally conserved primers. a modified method was applied for determination of cho activity. then, extracellular cho activity was assessed under different temperature, ph and cholesterol concentration conditions. finally, cho gene was amplified by pcr and cloned into stv28. results: according to the morphological, cultural and biochemical tests, the isolated bacterium was identified as rhodococcus sp. strain 501 and deposited in genbank with accession number fn298676. results showed that optimum temperature and ph for cho activity were 35°c and 7.5, respectively. alignment of nucleotide sequence of cho gene showed 99% homology with other bacterial cho genes. conclusion: rhodococcus sp. strain 501 produced significant levels of extracellular cho in an optimized medium for a short period. cho gene was cloned into cloning vector that can be a valuable tool for better identification and further studies on gene expression.

Isolation and identification of extracellular cholesterol oxidase producing microorganisms from various sources

Cholesterol oxidase (EC1.1.3.6; CHO) is an enzyme, which catalyzes the oxidation of cholesterol and converts 5cholesten-3β-ol into 4cholesten-3-one. The objective of this study is to isolate extracellular cholesterol oxidase (CHO) producing microorganisms to obtain an abundant source of cholesterol oxidase (CHO) for industrial and medicinal needs. Cholesterol oxidase producing bacteria were iso...

Isolation and primary characterization of an amidase from Rhodococcus rhodochrous.

Amidase (EC 3.5.1.4) was purified to homogeneity from Rhodococcus rhodochrous M8 using isopropanol fractionation and exchange chromatography on Mono Q. The isolated amidase consists of four identical subunits with molecular weight 42+/-2 kD. The activity of the enzyme is maximal at 55-60 degrees C and within the pH range 5-8. The amidase from R. rhodochrous M8 is highly sensitive to such sulfhy...
