Optimización de las condiciones de cultivo anaeróbico termófilo para aumentar la producción enzimática de xilanasas con cepas bacterianas encapsuladas y libres / Optimization of anaerobic thermophilic culture conditions for increasing xylanase enzyme production with encapsulated and free bacteria strains

Las bacterias termófilas productoras de enzimas son de gran interés en biotecnología debido a que tienen diversas aplicaciones en la industria por su estabilidad extrema.

Purification and characterization of glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase from Lake Van fish (Chalcalburnus tarichiipallas, 1811) liver

Glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase (D-glucose 6-phosphate: NADP+ oxidoreductase, EC 1.1.1.49; G6PD) was purified from Lake Van fish (Chalcalburnus tarichii pallas, 1811) liver, using a simple and rapid method, and some characteristics of the enzyme were investigated. The purification procedure was composed of two steps: homogenate preparation and 2¡ä, 5¡ä-ADP Sepharose 4B affinity gel chromatography, which took 7¨C8 hours. Thanks to the two consecutive procedures, the enzyme, having specific activity of 38 EU/mg protein, was purified with a yield of 44.39% and 1,310 fold. In order to control the enzyme purification SDS polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) was done. SDS polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis showed a single band for enzyme. Optimal pH, stable pH, optimal temperature, Km and, Vmax values for NADP+ and glucose 6- phosphate (G6P) were also determined for the enzyme. In addition, molecular weight and subunit molecular weights were found by sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrilamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) and gel filtration chromatography respectively (AU)

Mediante un método simple y rápido, se identifica la enzima glucosa-6-fosfato deshidrogenasa (..) (AU)
