Rose Bengal as a specific photosensitizer for a histidine residue at the triphosphopyridine nucleotide binding site of 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase.
Rose Bengal is a potent inhibitor of 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase from Candida utilis and mediates the photoinactivation of the enzyme. The experiments reported in this paper indicate that photoinactivation occurs only when the dye is bound to the TPN binding site of the enzyme. Since the photoinactivation is correlated to the specific oxidation of only 2 residues of histidine, it can be as...
متن کاملEnhancement of L-asparaginase Production by Candida utilis in a 13L Fermenter and its Purification
L- asparaginase enzyme is a renown enzyme due to its chemotherapeutic properties. This enzyme could also be employed in food processing technology. The present study aimed, optimizing the agitation and aeration rate in L-asparaginase production, using Candida utilis, ATCC 9950 in batch fermentation system. Beet molasses used as the carbohydrate source for enzyme production. A maximum asparagina...
متن کاملGlyceraldehyde phosphate dehydrogenase activity with triphosphopyridine nucleotide and with diphosphopyridine nucleotide.
The results presented here are part of a study of pentose synthesis in Alcaligenes fuecalis. The mechanism of pentose synthesis is of interest since the organism can synthesize pentose from acetate, but cannot use hexoses for growth (1). In the course of the investigation into the enzymes associated with this synthesis, glyceraldehyde phosphate dehydrogenase activity, with either triphosphopyri...
متن کاملAcrylamide Reduction in Potato Crisps using: Asparaginase from Candida utilis, Commercial Asparaginase, Salt Immersion, and pH Treatment
This paper investigates the reduction of acrylamide formation in potato crisps as a result of asparaginase treatment, using calcium chloride and sodium chloride solutions with different concentrations, immersion in different pH solutions, and different frying conditions. The main aim is to compare the reduction of acrylamide in potato crisps using two kinds of asparaginase enzyme; the first enz...
متن کاملElectron-paramagnetic-resonance spectroscopy studies of iron-sulphur centres of submitochondrial particles from iron- and sulphur-deficient. Candida utilis.
1. Measurements were made at 12 degrees K of the electron-paramagnetic-resonance (e.p.r.) spectra of submitochondrial particles from Candida utilis cells grown under conditions that alter the amount of the mitochondrial NADH dehydrogenase (EC 1.6.99.3). 2. Iron-limited growth decreases the extent of iron-sulphur e.p.r. signals to undetectable values that are less than 1 percent of those normall...
