The nucleophilic addition reactions of allyl isothiocyanate (AITC) with alanine, glycine, and five alanine and/or glycine containing di- and tripeptides were investigated in model aqueous solutions of pH 6, 8, and 10 at 25 degrees C for 2-4 weeks. The formation of primary adducts, i.e., N-allylthiocarbamoyl amino acids (ATC-amino acids) or ATC-peptides, their transformation products, i.e., 3-allyl-2-thiohydantoins originating by cyclization of ATC-amino acids or by cleavage of ATC-peptides, and several other minor components were observed. The results revealed that both addition and cleavage rates rise proportionally to pH, whereas the formation of 2-thiohydantoins from ATC-amino acids is controlled by H(3)O(+) concentration. Depending on pH, differences in reaction rates of the additions are determined by either pK(a)(NH(2)) of amino compounds or electrical effects and steric hindrance of the molecules. The latter factors are crucial also for differences in cleavage rates of ATC-peptides. With regard to the pK(a) values and simultaneous AITC decomposition by aqueous nucleophiles, the reactions with amino acids and oligopeptides are predominant reaction pathways of AITC in solutions of pH 10 and 8, respectively. Reaction mechanism of the cleavage of 2-thiohydantoins from ATC-peptides in alkaline and mild acidic solutions is different from the conventional Edman scheme used for anhydrous acid medium.  相似文献

A screening of endophytic fungi isolated from Mediterranean plants rendered a mycelium-bound lipase from a strain of Rhizopus oryzae that catalyzed the esterification of fatty acids in isooctane. The influence of various factors (water content, temperature, and pH) on ester synthesis was investigated. Catalytic activity was inversely correlated with water content. This enzyme was active over the entire pH range studied, from pH 3 to pH 8, and activity was maximal at pH 4 and pH 7. The enzyme was thermostable, with maximal activity at 60 degrees C.  相似文献

The reaction between the triplet excited state of riboflavin and amino acids, peptides, and bovine whey proteins was investigated in aqueous solution in the pH range from 4 to 9 at 24 degrees C using nanosecond laser flash photolysis. Only tyrosine and tryptophan (and their peptides) were found to compete with oxygen in quenching the triplet state of riboflavin in aqueous solution, with second-order rate constants close to the diffusion limit, 1.75 x 10(9) and 1.40 x 10(9) L mol(-1) s(-1) for tyrosine and tryptophan, respectively, with beta-lactoglobulin and bovine serum albumin having comparable rate constants of 3.62 x 10(8) and 2.25 x 10(8) L mol(-1) s(-1), respectively. Tyrosine, tryptophan, and their peptides react with the photoexcited triplet state of riboflavin by electron transfer from the tyrosine and tryptophan moieties followed by a fast protonation of the resulting riboflavin anion rather than by direct H-atom abstraction, which could be monitored by time-resolved transient absorption spectroscopy as a decay of triplet riboflavin followed by a rise in riboflavin anion radical absorption. For cysteine- and thiol-containing peptides, second-order rate constants depend strongly on pH, for cysteine corresponding to pKaRSH = 8.35. H-atom abstraction seems to operate at low pH, which with rising pH gradually is replaced by electron transfer from the thiol anion. From the pH dependence of the second-order rate constant, the respective values for the H-atom abstraction (k = 1.64 x 10(6) L mol(-1) s(-1)) and for the electron transfer (k = 1.20 x 10(9) L mol(-1) s(-1)) were determined.  相似文献

Hydrolyses of fenamiphos, fipronil, and trifluralin were studied in aqueous buffer solutions of pH 4.1, 7.1, and 9.1 at different temperatures, 5, 22 +/- 1, 32 +/- 1, and 50 +/- 1 degrees C. Fenamiphos, fipronil, and trifluralin were found to be more stable in acidic and neutral buffer solutions at temperatures of 5 and 22 +/- 1, and dissipation is rapid at 50 +/- 1 degrees C. In basic buffer and at higher temperature, degradation of fenamiphos was found to be very rapid when compared with fipronil and trifluralin. The rate constants calculated at 32 degrees C for fenamiphos were 2349.4 x 10(-)(8) (pH 4.1), 225.2 x 10(-)(8) (pH 7.1), and 30476.0 x 10(-)(8) (pH 9.1); for fipronil 1750.0 x 10(-)(8) (pH 4.1), 3103.0 x 10(-)(8) (pH 7.1), and 3883.0 x 10(-)(8) (pH 9.1); and for trifluralin 2331.0 x 10(-)(8) (pH 4.1), 2360.0 x 10(-)(8) (pH 7.1), and 3188.0 x 10(-)(8) (pH 9.1). On the basis of rate constant values, these pesticides appeared to be more susceptible to hydrolysis than synthetic organophosphorus compounds such as chlorpyriphos, diazinon, malathion, and ronnel. DT(50) values calculated at 32 degrees C were 228 (pH 4.1), 5310.24 (pH 7.1), and 37.68 (pH 9.1) h for fenamiphos; 608.6 (pH 4.1), 373.9 (pH 7.1), and 270.2 (pH 9.1) h for fipronil; and 502.1 (pH 4.1), 496.8 (pH 7.1), and 355.7 (pH 9.1) h for trifluralin.  相似文献

Kinetics and mechanism of imazosulfuron hydrolysis   总被引：5，自引：0，他引：5  
Knowledge of the kinetics and pathways of hydrolytic degradation is crucial to the prediction of the fate and transport mechanism of chemicals. This work first describes the kinetics of the chemical hydrolysis of imazosulfuron, a new sulfonylurea herbicide, and evaluates the results to propose a degradation pathway. The hydrolysis of imazosulfuron has been studied in aqueous buffers both within the pH range 1.9-12.3 at ambient temperature (thermostated at 25 +/- 2 degrees C) and at pH 3.6 within the temperature range of 15-55 degrees C. The hydrolysis rate of imazosulfuron was characterized by a first-order kinetics, pH- and temperature-dependent, and accelerated by acidic conditions and higher temperatures. The calculated half-lives at pH 4.5 and 5.9 were 36.5 and 578 days, respectively. At pH 6.6, 7.4, 9.2, and 12.3 no significant change in imazosulfuron concentration was observed after 150 days. Half-lives were much lower at pH <4 (= imazosulfuron pK(a)), at which they ranged from 3.3 to 6.3 days. Moreover, a change in temperature from 15 to 25 degrees C in acidic conditions (pH 3.6) decreased the half-life of imazosulfuron by a factor of approximately 4.0; in any case, a 3-5-fold increase in the rate of hydrolysis was found for each 10 degrees C increase in temperature. In acidic conditions the only hydrolysis products were the two molecules resulting from the cleavage of the sulfonylurea bridge.  相似文献

The squid (Loligo pealei) byproduct composed of heads, viscera, skin, fins, and small tubes was subjected to hydrolysis at 55 degrees C and natural pH (6.8) using endogenous proteases. Squid hydrolysate was characterized during the course of hydrolysis for changes in the degree of hydrolysis, viscosity, electrophoretic pattern of proteins and peptides, and amino acid and fatty acid profiles. The change in viscosity can be used to monitor the progress of protein hydrolysis up to the molecular mass of 26.63 kDa. The 2 h hydrolysis resulted in a 2-fold increase in the total free amino acids and yielded hydrolysate with protein molecular mass of < or =45 kDa having feed attractability and good amino acid and fatty acid profiles with high contents of essential amino acids and fatty acids. Such hydrolysis-induced changes can make squid byproduct hydrolysate a good source of aquaculture feed ingredient, especially for a starter diet for larval fish.  相似文献

Suni‐bug (Eurygaster spp.) enzyme was partially purified from bug‐damaged wheat and used to prepare gluten hydrolysates at 3% and 5% degree of hydrolysis (DH). Functional properties of gluten and gluten hydrolysates were determined at 0.2% (w/v) protein concentration and pH 2–10. Gluten solubility after enzymatic hydrolysis increased significantly (P < 0.05) up to 89.1, 89.6, and 95.0% at pH 7, 8, and 10, respectively. Emulsion stability (ES) of gluten hydrolysates improved at neutral and alkaline pH (P < 0.05) and emulsifying capacity (EC) increased significantly (P < 0.05) except at pH 10. Foaming capacity (FC) values of gluten hydrolysates were significantly higher (P < 0.05) at pH 6, 7, 8; foam stability (FS) values of gluten hydrolysates were significantly higher (P < 0.05) at pH 6 and 7. Enzymatic modification of gluten by wheat‐bug enzyme resulted in hydrolysates with higher antioxidant activity compared to gluten. Significant correlations (P < 0.001) were found between solubility and EC, ES, FC, and FS values of gluten and its hydrolysates with 3% and 5% DH.  相似文献

Enzymatic production of xylooligosaccharides from cotton stalks   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1  
Xylooligosaccharide (XO) production was performed from xylan, which was obtained by alkali extraction from cotton stalk, a major agricultural waste in Turkey. Enzymatic hydrolysis was selected to prevent byproduct formation such as xylose and furfural. Xylan was hydrolyzed using a commercial xylanase preparation, and the effects of pH, temperature, hydrolysis period, and substrate and enzyme concentrations on the XO yield and degree of polymerization (DP) were investigated. Cotton stalk contains about 21% xylan, the composition of which was determined as 84% xylose, 7% glucose, and 9% uronic acid after complete acid hydrolysis. XOs in the DP range of 2-7 (X6 approximately X5>X2>X3) were obtained with minor quantities of xylose in all of the hydrolysis conditions used. Although after 24 h of hydrolysis at 40 degrees C, the yield was about 53%, the XO production rate leveled off after 8-24 h of hydrolysis. XO yield was affected by all of the parameters investigated; however, none of them affected the DP of the end product significantly, except the hydrolysis period. Enzyme hydrolysis was maintained by the addition of fresh substrate after 72 h of hydrolysis, indicating the persistence of enzyme activity. The optimal hydrolysis conditions were determined as 40 degrees C, pH 5.4, and 2% xylan. The obtained product was fractionated via ultrafiltration by using 10, 3, and 1 kDa membranes. Complete removal of xylanase and unhydrolyzed xylan was achieved without losing any oligosaccharides having DP 5 or smaller by 10 kDa membrane. After a two-step membrane processing, a permeate containing mostly oligosaccharides was obtained.  相似文献

Bombyx mori silk fibroin is a protein-based macromolecular biopolymer with remarkable biocompatibility. Silk fiber was degummed and subjected to a series of treatments, including dissolution and dialysis, to yield an aqueous solution of silk fibroin, which was introduced rapidly into excess acetone to produce crystalline silk fibroin nanoparticles (SFNs). The SFNs were conjugated covalently with a neutral protease (NP) using glutaraldehyde as the cross-linking reagent. The objective of this study was to determine the optimal conditions for biosynthesis of the SFN-NP bioconjugates. First, SFN-NP was obtained by covalent cross-linking of SFN and NP at an SFN/NP ratio of 5-8 mg:1 IU with 0.75% glutaraldehyde for 6 h at 25 °C. When adding 50 IU of the enzyme, the residual activity of biological conjugates was increased to 31.45%. Studies on the enzyme activity of SFN-NP and its kinetics showed that the stability of SFN-NP bioconjugates was greater than that of the free enzyme, the optimum reactive temperature range was increased by 5-10 °C, and the optimum pH value range was increased to 6.5-8.0. Furthermore, the thermal stability was improved to some extent. A controlled hydrolysis test using the poorly water-soluble protein sericin as a substrate and SFN-NP as the enzyme showed that the longer the reaction time (within 1 h), the smaller the molecular mass (<30 kDa) is of the sericin peptide produced. The SFN-NP bioconjugate is easily recovered by centrifugation and can be used repeatedly. The highly efficient processing technology and the use of SFN as a novel vector for a protease has great potential for research and the development of food processing.  相似文献

Lipid acyl hydrolase (LAH; patatin) was purified from potato tubers by ammonium sulfate fractionation followed by anion-exchange and affinity chromatography. The major protein band of 40-43 kDa on SDS-PAGE appeared to be patatin, and it stained positive for lipase activity on native PAGE. Selectivity of a Celite-immobilized potato LAH in esterification reactions with n-acyl fatty acids (FA; C4, C6, C8, C10, C12, C14, C16, and C18) and alcohol acceptors (n-propanol, 2-propanol, 1,3-propanediol, and glycerol; 1,2-propanediol was not sufficiently reactive) was studied in isooctane. Immobilized LAH was highly selective for medium chain FAs (C8/C10) with a secondary optimum for chain lengths of C14/16. Water activity (a(w)) influenced activity and FA selectivity of the enzyme. Initial rates of ester synthesis were greatest at a(w) of 0.90 for all alcohol acceptors except for glycerol, where greatest initial rates were observed at a(w) of 0.19. Immobilized LAH preparations exhibited a bell-shape pH profile with optimum activity at pH 6-7 for ester synthesis, and no effect of pH on FA selectivity was observed.  相似文献

Acid-induced cold gelation of soy protein hydrolysates was studied. Hydrolysates with degrees of hydrolysis (DH) of up to 10% were prepared by using subtilisin Carlsberg. The enzyme was inhibited to uncouple the hydrolysis from the subsequent gelation; the latter was induced by the addition of glucono-delta-lactone. Visual observations, confocal scanning laser microscopy images, and the elasticity modulus showed that hydrolysates gelled at higher pH values with increasing DH. The nonhydrolyzed soy protein isolate gelled at pH approximately 6.0, whereas a DH = 5% hydrolysate gelled at pH approximately 7.6. Gels made from hydrolysates had a softer texture when manually disrupted and showed syneresis below a pH of 5-5.5. Monitoring of gelation by measuring the development of the storage modulus could be replaced by measuring the pH onset of aggregate formation (pH(Aggr-onset)) using turbidity measurements. The rate of acidification was observed to also influence this pH(Aggr-onset). Changes in ionic strength (0.03, 0.2, and 0.5 M) had only a minor influence on the pH(Aggr-onset), indicating that the aggregation is not simply a balance between repulsive electrostatic and attractive hydrophobic interactions, but is much more complex.  相似文献

The herbicide flazasulfuron undergoes rapid alcoholysis. High yields of the corresponding carbamate and aminopyrimidine are obtained after the alcoholysis process (methanol or ethanol) at 30 degrees C, in the course of which the concomitant rearrangement reaction remains minor. Hydrolysis (pH ranging from 5 to 11) of flazasulfuron at 30 degrees C principally involves the rearrangement into urea after elimination of SO(2) and can lead, in a small proportion, to both aminopyrimidine and pyridinesulfonamide. First-order kinetics correctly describes the rates of alcoholysis and hydrolysis. The sulfonylurea-bridge contraction and final transformation into the correspondent amine were evaluated with a first-order kinetics hypothesis. Transformations in amine and urea in aqueous medium are pH dependent. The chemical degradation of flazasulfuron on various dry minerals (calcium bentonite, kaolinite, silica, montmorillonite, and alumina) was investigated at 30 degrees C. The rearrangement reaction is the only one observed in the presence of kaolinite and alumina. However, hydrolysis and rearrangement have the same reaction rate in the presence of silica. The hydrolysis paths of flazasulfuron are comparable to the ones described for rimsulfuron.  相似文献

An extracellular γ-glutamyltranspeptidase (GGT) with a specific activity of 683.4 U/mg was purified to homogeneity from a culture filtrate of Bacillus subtilis SK11.004 in three steps and then characterized. The GGT is composed of one large subunit of 40 kDa and one small subunit of 21 kDa that was determined by SDS-PAGE and a molecular mass of 62 kDa that was determined by gel-filtration chromatography. The purified GGT had an optimal pH and temperature of 10 and 37 °C, respectively, and it was stable at pH 4.0-11.0 or <50 °C. The enzyme exhibited the highest affinity to imino acids (L-Pro) and then decreasing affinities for aromatic amino acids, ethylamine and basic amino acids. The K(m) values of hydrolysis and of transpeptidation for L-Gln were 3.16 mM and 0.83 mM, respectively, suggesting that the GGT likely synthesizes valuable γ-glutamyl peptides using L-Gln as γ-glutamyl donor. The effects of inhibitors on the enzyme suggested that the tryptophan residues and hydroxy groups of Ser or Thr are essential to enzyme activity. Based on the biochemical characteristics of the enzyme and lack of homology to previously identified proteins, it can be concluded that the GGT from B. subtilis SK11.004 is a novel enzyme.  相似文献

Hydrolysis of beta-lactoglobulin (in an equimolar mixture of the A and B variant) by trypsin in neutral aqueous solution [pH 7.7 at 25 degrees C, ionic strength 0.08 (NaCl)] was followed by capillary electrophoresis and thermodynamic parameters derived from a Michaelis-Menten analysis of rate data obtained at 10, 20, 30, and 40 degrees C for disappearance of beta-lactoglobulin. Enthalpy of substrate binding to the enzyme and the energy of activation for the catalytic process were found to have the values, DeltaH(bind) = -28 +/- 4 kJ mol(-)(1) and E(a) = 51 +/- 18 kJ mol(-)(1), respectively. Thus, beta-lactoglobulin shows an enthalpy of activation for free substrate reacting with free enzyme of about 21 kJ mol(-)(1), corresponding to a transition state stabilization of 60 kJ mol(-)(1) when compared to acid-catalyzed hydrolysis. The catalytic efficiency of trypsin in hydrolysis of beta-lactoglobulin is increased significantly by temperature; however, this effect is partly counteracted by a weaker substrate binding resulting in an increase by only 25%/10 degrees C in overall catalytic efficiency.  相似文献

Kinetics and mechanism of cymoxanil degradation in buffer solutions   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1  
The kinetics and mechanism(s) of the hydrolytic degradation of a compound are needed to evaluate a compound's abiotic degradation in the environment. In this paper, the hydrolysis of cymoxanil [2-cyano-N-[(ethylamino)carbonyl]-2-(methoxyimino) acetamide] was investigated in dark sterile aqueous solutions under a variety of pH conditions (pH 2.8-9.2) and temperatures (15-50 degrees C). Hydrolysis of cymoxanil was described by first-order kinetics, which was dependent on pH and temperature. Cymoxanil degraded rapidly at pH 9 (half-life = 31 min) and relatively slowly at pH 2.8 (half-life = 722 days). The effect of temperature on the rate of cymoxanil degradation was characterized using the Arrhenius equation with an estimated energy of activation of 117.1 kJ mol(-)(1). An increase in temperature of 10 degrees C resulted in a decrease in half-life by a factor of approximately 5. Three competing degradation pathways are proposed for the hydrolysis of cymoxanil, with two of the pathways accounting for approximately 90% of cymoxanil degradation. These two pathways involved either initial cyclization to 1-ethyldihydro-6-imino-2,3,5(3H)-pyrimidinetrione-5-(O-methyloxime) (1, Figure 1) or direct cleavage of the C-1 amide bond to form cyano(methoxyimino) acetic acid (7). The third pathway of degradation involved initial cyclization to 3-ethyl-4-(methoxyimino)-2,5-dioxo-4-imidazolidinecarbonitrile (8), which rapidly degrades into 1-ethyl-5-(methoxyimino)-2,4-imidazoline-2,4-dione (9). All three pathways eventually lead to the formation of the polar metabolite oxalic acid.  相似文献

Abstract

Effects of bicarbonate (10 mM as NaHCO3) and high pH (pH 8 buffered with HEPES) separately on root growth and accumulation of organic acids in the roots of zinc (Zn)‐efficient (IR36) and Zn‐inefficient (IR26) rice genotypes (Oriza sativa L.) were investigated in this study. The results indicated that shoot dry matter yields were decreased more by bicarbonate than by high pH for the Zn‐inefficient genotype, but not affected for the Zn‐efficient genotype. Root dry weights, especially root length, was significantly decreased by bicarbonate and high pH treatments for the Zn‐inefficient genotype, whereas was considerably enhanced by only bicarbonate treatment for the Zn‐efficient rice genotype. The reduction in root growth of the Zn‐inefficient rice genotype and the enhancement of root length in the Zn‐efficient genotype were greater when plants grown with bicarbonate than with high pH treatment. Accumulation of malate, citrate, and fumarate in roots of the two genotypes increased considerably due to both high pH and bicarbonate treatments, but to a greater extent for the Zn‐inefficient than for the Zn‐efficient cultivars. After an 8‐day treatment, more organic acids accumulated in the roots of the Zn‐inefficient genotype (IR26) when plants grown with bicarbonate than at high pH, but this was not the case for the Zn‐efficient genotype. The influence of root growth by bicarbonate appeared to be one of the major factors for the sensitivity of rice genotypes to Zn deficiency in calcareous soils. The greater inhibitory effect of bicarbonate than high pH on root growth of the Zn‐inefficient genotype might result from an excessive accumulation and inefficient compartmentation of organic acids, particularly citrate and malate, in the root cells.  相似文献

Abstract

Organic acids and phosphate were determined in soil aqueous extracts by capillary zone electrophoresis using indirect UV detection. The electrolyte system was 10 mM sodium benzoate with 0.5 mM tetradecyltrimetyl‐ammonium bromide as flow modifier at pH 4.0, pH 4.5, or pH 5.0. This methodology was adequate to determine organic acids and phosphate in soil samples, but the major inorganic anions interfered in the determination. In all the samples of soil extracts, the presence of phosphate was detected. Acetate was found in most of the samples and lactate and formate in some of them.  相似文献

Defatted sesame meal ( approximately 40-50% protein content) is very important as a protein source for human consumption due to the presence of sulfur-containing amino acids, mainly methionine. Sesame protein isolate (SPI) is produced from dehulled, defatted sesame meal and used as a starting material to produce protein hydrolysate by papain. Protein solubility at different pH values, emulsifying properties in terms of emulsion activity index (EAI) and emulsion stability index (ESI), foaming properties in terms of foam capacity (FC) and foam stability (FS), and molecular weight distribution of the SPI hydrolysates were investigated. Within 10 min of hydrolysis, the maximum cleavage of peptide bonds occurred as observed from the degree of hydrolysis. Protein hydrolysates have better functional properties than the original SPI. Significant increase in protein solubility, EAI, and ESI were observed. The greatest increase in solubility was observed between pH 5.0 and 7.0. The molecular weight of the hydrolysates was also reduced significantly during hydrolysis. These improved functional properties of different protein hydrolysates would make them useful products, especially in the food, pharmaceutical, and related industries.  相似文献

This paper reports laboratory studies of the behavior and fate of triflusulfuron-methyl in aqueous buffer and soils. Aqueous hydrolysis was pH-dependent and fast in acidic buffer solutions. In basic buffers, the hydrolysis rate variation was low between pH 7 and pH 10. The degradation pathway in the range of pH 4-10 was via cleavage of the sulfonylurea bridge to form two transformation products: 2-amino-4-(dimethylamino)-6-(2,2,2-trifluoroethoxy)-1,3, 5-triazine (2) and 6-methyl-2-methylcarboxylate benzene sulfonamide (3). Comparison of transformation rates in sterile and nonsterile soils indicates that chemical and microbial processes are important in soil degradation. The former is more important in acidic soils, and the latter is more important in basic soils. A biphasic model fits well with dissipation of triflusulfuron-methyl in soil. The triazine formed during the first step of transformation was degraded more rapidly in basic soils than in acidic soils.  相似文献
