概要

論文の詳細を見る
An esterase with excellent stereoselectivity for (+)-trans-ethyl chrysanthemate was purified to homogeneity from Arthrobacter globiformis SC-6-98-28. The purified enzyme hydrolyzed a mixture of ethyl chrysanthemate isomers stereoselectively to produce (+)-trans-acid with 100% stereoisomeric purity. The apparent molecular weight of the purified enzyme was 43,000 on SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, and 94,000 on gel filtration chromatography. The optimum conditions for the ester hydrolysis were pH 10.0 at 45℃. The purified esterase hydrolyzed short-chain fatty acid esters, but did not have detectable activity on long-chain water-insoluble fatty acid esters. The enzyme activity was inhibited by diisopropyl fluorophosphate and phenylmethylsulfonyl fluoride.
