A New Expression System Based on Psychrotolerant Debaryomyces macquariensis Yeast and Its Application to the Production of Cold-Active β-D-Galactosidase from Paracoccus sp. 32d
PublicationYeasts provide attractive host/vector systems for heterologous gene expression. The currently used yeast-based expression platforms include mesophilic and thermotolerant species. A eukaryotic expression system working at low temperatures could be particularly useful for the production of thermolabile proteins and proteins that tend to form insoluble aggregates. For this purpose, an expression system based on an Antarctic psychrotolerant...

Izolacja drożdży psychrotolerancyjnych oraz ocena ich zdolności do wykorzystania N-fosfonometyloglicyny jako źródła pierwiastków biogennych
PublicationN-fosfonometyloglicyna (PMG, glifosat) jest substancją aktywną herbicydu Roundup o szerokim spektrum aktywności biologicznej. Mechanizm jego działania opiera się na inhibicji aktywności syntazy 5-enolopirogroniano-szikimowo-3-fosforanowej (EPSP), przez co hamowana jest biosynteza aminokwasów aromatycznych u roślin. Glifosat jest związkiem fosforoorganicznym, w którego budowie wyróżnia się trwałe wiązanie C-P. Szybkość rozkładu...

Cloning, expression, and biochemical characterization of a coldactive GDSL-esterase of a Pseudomonas sp. S9 isolated from Spitsbergen island soil
PublicationAn estS9 gene, encoding an esterase of the psychrotolerant bacterium Pseudomonas sp. S9 was cloned and sequenced. The deduced sequence revealed a protein of 636 amino acid residues with a molecular mass of 69 kDa.Further amino acid sequence analysis revealed that the EstS9 enzyme contained a G-D-S-L motif centered at a catalytic serine, an N-terminal catalytic domain and a C-terminal autotransporter domain. Two recombinant E. coli...

Cold-Active beta-Galactosidases: Sources, Biochemical Properties and Their Biotechnological Potential
Publicationbeta-D-Galactosidases have been studied extensively in terms of their application to a variety of industrial technologies. To date, considerable research efforts have been devoted to characterization of new cold-active beta-D-galactosidases which were isolated directly from selected species of bacteria and yeasts, as well as with the use of metagenomic approaches. This chapter will provide a review of current research towards cold-active...

Expression of a GDSL esterase from Pseudomonas sp. S9 in Pichiapastoris
PublicationCold active lipolytic enzymes are promising to replace the conventional enzymes processes of biotechnological industries. One of the most important feature of the cold-active lipases and esterases is that they offer economic benefits through energy saving. In general, they exhibit high activity at low temperatures and low thermostability at moderate temperatures. Lipolytic enzyme EstS9 was isolated from Pseudomonas sp. S9. A multiple...

Study on a polish peat bog “Rucianka” as a source of yeast strains capable of effective phenol biodegradation
PublicationPhenol is one of the most widely distributed environmental pollutants which can be found in wastewaters and industrial effluents. Due to its toxicity and resistance to self-degradation, it could become even lethal for humans and animals. The treatment of this toxic compound is focused on psychical–chemical methods, although biological treatment of phenol is preferable for economic aspects related to relatively...

Beta-galactosidases from a psychrotolerant Arthrobacter isolates and their potential use
PublicationEnzymes from extremophiles, especially psychrophiles and psychrotolerant microorganisms are currently intensively studied because of their unusual structural and functional properties. One of these enzymes is a cold-adapted - galactosidase (EC 3.2.1.23) which catalyzes the hydrolysis of - 1,4-glycosidic bonds in -galactosides. The most common - galactoside is lactose, a disaccharide which makes up 2-7% of milk. The majority of...

Beta-Galactosidases of Pseudoalteromonas sp. – Characteristics and application for lactose hydrolysis and galactopyranosides synthesis
PublicationBeta-galactosidase [EC 3.2.1.23] is an enzyme that catalyzes the hydrolysis of O-glycosidic linkages in galactosides. It has biotechnological applications in the dairy industry for the production of milk with a low content of lactose and galactooligosacharides for use in healthy food. The transgalactosylation activity of beta-galactosidase can be used in the synthesis of alkyl galactopyranosides. Due to the fact that conditions of...

BIODIVERSITY OF YEASTS ISOLATED FROM CAVES OF THE POLISH TATRA MOUNTAINS, AND ITS BIOTECHNOLOGICAL POTENTIAL
PublicationMost of the Earth’s biosphere is permanently or periodically exposed to temperatures below 5°C. Cold habitats harbor a wide diversity of psychrophiles. For many years Antarctica has been the geographic area preferred for studying the diversity and properties of cold-adapted microorganisms. However, the non-Antarctic habitats like Himalayas or Alps are also extensively explored. The Tatra Mountains are Europe’s second-highest massif...

Cold-adapted bacterial lipolytic enzymes and their applications
PublicationLipolytic enzymes, esterases and lipases catalyze the hydrolysis and transesterification of fatty acid esters. This class of enzymes is the most important group of biocatalysts for biotechnological applications. From this perspective, coldactive lipolytic enzymes from cold adapted bacteria display attractive properties for some industrial purposes, including high catalytic activity at low temperatures and low thermostability. To...

THE GENE CLONING, OVEREXPRESSION, PURIFICATION AND BIOCHEMICAL CHARACTERISATION OF A NEW COLD-ADAPTED β–GALACTOSIDASE FROM ARTHROBACTER SP. VII-4
PublicationINTRODUCTION. β-Galactosidase [EC 3.2.1.23] is an enzyme that catalyzes the hydrolysis of O-glycosidic linkages in galactosides. It is commercially used in dairy industry for the production of milk with reduced lactose content. Potentially, the best method for lactose removal under cooling conditions should be carried out with a cold-adapted enzyme. AIM. The aim of this study was to determine the taxonomic affiliation of the isolate...
