ABSTRACT
Laccases are glycoprotein polyphenol oxidases which are involved in fungal pathogenicity and they are also useful for biotechnological applications. The ligninolytic ascomycete, Botryosphaeria rhodina, has been studied as producer of exopolysaccharide and PPO-I and PPO-II laccases induced by veratryl alcohol. However, as the induced laccases have not been isolated, the aim of this study was to purify the enzyme and to identify the carbohydrates constituents of the glycosidic moiety. The fungus was cultivated on broth Vogel, 1% glucose and 30.4mM veratryl alcohol during 4.5 days at 28C/180 rpm. The extracellular fluid showed high carbohydrate concentration and the stability of PPO-I laccase under conditions of refrigeration and freezing at 4ºC-18ºC over 40 days. The purification was developed by ultrafiltration using a NMWL 100 and 30 kDa membrane, gelfiltration on Sephadex G-100, and ion-exchange chromatography on DEAE-cellulose. The purified laccase was identified as a glycoprotein, weight molecular 113 kDa, consisting of 40% protein and 60% carbohydrate identified by HPAEC-PAD as fucose, galactose, mannose, glucose and glucosamine
RESUMO
Lacases são glicoproteínas polifenol oxidases envolvidas na patogenicidade de alguns fungos e úteis em processos biotecnológicos. O ascomiceto ligninolítico Botryosphaeria rhodina tem sido estudado como produtor de exopolissacarídeos e de lacases PPO-I e PPO-II induzidas pelo álcool veratrílico. Como as lacases produzidas ainda não foram isoladas, o objetivo deste trabalho foi purificar lacases PPO-I e identificar os carboidratos constituintes da porção glicosídica. O fungo foi cultivado em meio mínimo de Vogel contendo 1% de glicose e 30,4 mM de álcool veratrílico, a 28C e agitação de 180 rpm durante 4,5 dias. O extrato livre de células apresentou elevada concentração de carboidratos e de PPO-I estáveis a 4ºC e -18ºC durante 40 dias. Técnicas de ultrafiltração, cromatografia em gel Sephadex G-100 e em resina DEAE-Celulose purificaram lacases PPO-I com peso molecular de 113 kDa por eletroforese PAGE-SDS, contendo 40% de proteínas e 60% carboidratos identificados por HPAEC-PAD como fucose, galactose, manose, glucose e glucosamina
