Abstract:
:Chemical modification of lysine residues in two bacterial alpha-amylases, a mesophilic enzyme from Bacillus amyloliquefaciens (BAA) and a thermophilic enzyme from Bacillus licheniformis (BLA) was carried out using citraconic anhydride. 13 +/- 1 residues in BAA and 10 +/- 1 residues in BLA were found modified under defined experimental conditions. Modification brought about dramatic enhancement of thermal stability of BAA and catalytic activity of BLA. Such alterations were found dependent on the temperature and pH. Results obtained on Tm, the extent of deamidation, changes in the circular dichroism (CD) spectra and kinetic parameters before and after modification are discussed in terms of their contributions to the mechanism of irreversible thermoinactivation and activity enhancement.
