The stereospecificity of alcohol oxidases from Tanacetum vulgare and Candida boidinii.
نویسنده
چکیده
The stereospecificity of the oxidation of trans-hex-2-en-l-01 and ethanol was determined for alcohol oxidases from Tanacetum vulgare leaves and from the yeast Candida boidinii. It was found that both enzymes remove the pro-1R hydrogen. The enzyme from Candida boidinii also removes the pro-1S hydrogen but t!o a much lesser degree.

A methylotrophic pathway participates in pectin utilization by Candida boidinii.
The methylotrophic yeast Candida boidinii S2 was found to be able to grow on pectin or polygalacturonate as a carbon source. When cells were grown on 1% (wt/vol) pectin, C. boidinii exhibited induced levels of the pectin-depolymerizing enzymes pectin methylesterase (208 mU/mg of protein), pectin lyase (673 mU/mg), pectate lyase (673 mU/mg), and polygalacturonase (3.45 U/mg) and two methanol-met...
متن کاملTHREE NEW RECORDS OF TANACETUM FOR THE FLORA OF IRAN

متن کاملPurification, characterization, gene cloning, and expression of a novel alcohol dehydrogenase with anti-prelog stereospecificity from Candida parapsilosis.
An alcohol dehydrogenase from Candida parapsilosis CCTCC M203011 was characterized along with its biochemical activity and structural gene. The amino acid sequence shows similarity to those of the short-chain dehydrogenase/reductases but no overall identity to known proteins. This enzyme with unusual stereospecificity catalyzes an anti-Prelog reduction of 2-hydroxyacetophenone to (S)-1-phenyl-1...
