Definitions
- the present invention relates to immobilized proteins from crude extract and their use for fermentation in bioreactors.
- Important enzymes that are used in biochemical or biotechnological conversions in fermenters or bioreactors are esterases.
- Carboxylesterases are very common in nature. They catalyze the hydrolysis of carboxylic acid esters to free acid anions and alcohols.
- esterases can be immobilized directly from the crude extract of tissues and cells of animals or plants without prior isolation and purification by binding to resins.
- Suitable resins for this are, for example, epoxy resins.
- the present invention therefore relates to esterases covalently bound and thus immobilized on resins from crude extracts of animal or plant cells and animal or plant tissue.
- the present invention thus relates in particular to resin-bound esterase from the crude extract of pork liver.
- a suitable resin for this is, for example, the epoxy resin Eupergit C.
- the resin-bound pork liver crude extract esterase can be used to cleave carboxylic acid esters to free acid anions and alcohols in bioreactors with high yield and high activity.
- the immobilized esterase according to the invention can preferably be used for the cleavage of nitroisophthalic acid dimethyl ester (NIPA-DME) to nitroisophthalic acid monomethyl ester (NIPA-MME), the undesired reaction to nitroisophthalic acid (NIPA) not taking place.
- NIPA-DME nitroisophthalic acid dimethyl ester
- NIPA-MME nitroisophthalic acid monomethyl ester
- NIPA nitroisophthalic acid
- the immobilized esterase according to the invention can preferably be used for the saponification of 2-fluoro-ara-adenine triacetate to 2-F-ara-adenine (F-araA), a precursor of Fludara.
- a further preferred use of the immobilized esterase according to the invention is the use in partial saponification from the ReichsteinS-17.21 diacetate to the ReichsteinS-17 monoacetate
- the immobilized esterase according to the invention made it possible to achieve a high yield of the end product in the fermentation. This was not predictable, since it is generally known that isolated and purified enzymes are used in enzymatic reactions in order to achieve the greatest possible conversion or high yield. Contamination of the enzyme is generally considered to inhibit activity. Furthermore, it can generally be assumed that further enzymes present in the crude extract interfere with the reaction or even catalyze further enzymatic reactions.
- Fig. 2 shows the structure required for the fermentation
- Fig. 3a shows the specific loss of activity of the immobilized at
- 3b shows the normalized loss of activity of the immobilizate during long-term use.
- Fresh pork liver is digested with potassium phosphate buffer at pH 7.5 in a mass ratio of 1: 4 at room temperature for 3 minutes in a homogenizer. The homogenate is centrifuged. The supernatant is decanted off. The sediment is discarded. The amount of supernatant corresponds to the buffer used. The supernatant obtained in this way is the raw pig liver extract, which has a high catalytic activity. 66 mg of total protein / ml of extract were obtained.
- the volume activity of the esterase is approximately 6.5 U / ml, the specific activity is approximately 0.1 U / mg.
- the quaternary structure of the pig liver esterase is in most cases a trimeric protein with three identical subunits and each with an active center with a molecular weight of approx. 60 kd. Therefore, only one band at 60 kd may occur in gel electrophoresis.
- a pig liver extract which was prepared as described in Example 1, was therefore applied in various dilutions to an SDS gel in addition to commercially available pig liver esterase and marker proteins. The result of the gel electrophoresis is shown in FIG. 1.
- isolated and purified pig liver esterase is treated for comparison.
- the immobilisates of the crude extracts from Example 3 are placed in the reactor.
- the product can be suctioned off with a filter without completely emptying the reactor.
- the reactor can then be reloaded with substrates. This process can be repeated until the enzyme has lost its activity. It has been shown in practice that the process can be repeated more than 100 times without loss of activity.
- the stability of the immobilized enzyme when used repeatedly is decisive for the use of the immobilized product on an industrial scale.
- the liver was disrupted 1: 4 with 1 M phosphate buffer (pH 7.5).
- the activity of the immobilizate for the swollen state is 8.94 U / g, based on the wet weight.
- a long-term study was carried out with this immobilizate, the use of NIPA-DME per batch being 10 g / l.
- the reaction was carried out at 38 ° C and pH 7.5 for 24 hours. As a result, the immobilizate was separated from the solution and renewed
- the immobilisate Use of the immobilisate.
- the decrease in time of the specific activity and the normalized activity of the enzyme is shown in Fig. 3a and Fig. 3b.
- the immobilized esterase from the raw pig liver extract still has 65% residual activity.
- the half-life of the immobilized product is approximately 250 hours, making it ideal for technical use in the fermenter. If the immobilizate is loaded with 10 g / l NIPA-DME for 10 hours, at least 100 batches can be run with an average reaction time of 5 hours.
- the controlled fermentation was carried out in a Biostat ED fermenter in accordance with the arrangement shown in FIG. 2.
