Characterization of β‐d‐glucosidase extracted from soil fractions

Abstract: Summary One way to study the state in which stabilized extracellular enzymes persist and are active in the soil is by extraction from the soil, with subsequent fractionation of enzyme–organomineral complexes and characterization of such complexes. In order to investigate the location and characteristics of soil β‐glucosidase, three soil fractions were obtained both from real (undisturbed) soil aggregates and from structural (dispersed in water and physically disrupted) aggregates using two different granulomet… Show more

“…Juglone from black walnut trees to soil is thought to exist primarily as α‐hydrojuglone glucoside, which is relatively benign, but can be rapidly oxidized to juglone (Daglish, 1950; Willis, 2000). Release of juglone from the parent glucoside in plants is considered to be a two‐step process with β‐glucosidase, a common soil enzyme (Alef and Nannipieri, 1995; Busto and Perez‐Mateos, 2000), catalyzing the hydrolysis to hydrojuglone (Duroux et al, 1998) followed by the fast chemical oxidation to the quinonoidal compound juglone (Duroux et al, 1998; Müller and Leistner, 1976). Potential juglone abundance estimated in walnut leaves, hulls, and roots ranges from less than 0.1% dry wt.…”

“…However, soil enzymatic reactions occur in a heterogeneous rather than homogeneous environment [8]. A certain proportion of free enzymes may undergo stabilization through adsorption on soil minerals or through incorporation into humic material [9,10] and, despite affecting their catalytic potential [11], may enable enzyme activity to remain active for long periods in soil. The adsorption and immobilization process can affect the conformational structure of enzymes, and, in turn, enzyme activity and kinetic changes may result due to the interaction between enzyme and substrate at solid-solution interfaces [12,13].…”

“…Synthesis of o-DPO by microorganisms is induced by HSD Honestly significant differences, which are obtained using the multiple range test of Tukey different substrates, including anilines, aromatic compounds, or lignin preparations [15], and investigations have focused on the role of this enzyme in lignin degradation during composting process [16,17]. These compounds, in a second step, are polymerized and integrated in the humus molecule [12].…”
