Isolation and characterization of proteases from Bacteroides melaninogenicus

Abstract: We isolated two types of intracellular proteases from a strain of Bacteroides melaninogenicus. These enzymes were extracted from cells by ultrasonic treatment and were partially purified. These two enzymes (proteases I and II) differed in molecular weight, heat stability, sensitivity to reducing agents, Km value, and optimum pH for activity.

“…Before electrophoresis the bacterial cells were separated from the sera by centrifugation and appropriately diluted. Samples (5 pul) of the sera were applied into 2.5-mm wells in a 1% agarose gel (HSA; Litex, Glostrup, Denmark) in Tris-barbital buffer (pH 8.6). The electrophoresis was carried out at 10 V cm-' for 4 h with the same buffer.…”

“…Such enzymes produced by Bacteroides gingivalis as (ttypsin-like) protease and collagenase are thought to be potent pathogenic factors in periodontal disease (7). We demonstrated earlier the presetice of 2 kinds of caseinolytic enzymes of a strain of Bacteroides melaninogenieus, isolated from the gitigival crevice (3). Recently, many reports on purification and properties of protease, collagenase, and collagenase-related enzymes have appeared in rapid succession (1,4,5,6,(8)(9)(10)(11)(12)(13)(14)(15).…”
