Purification, characterization, and gene cloning of glucose-1-phosphatase from Citrobacter braakii

Abstract: Citrobacter braakii produced an intracellular acid glucose phosphatase (AgpC) which was purifi ed 986 fold to homogeneity with the specifi c activity of 286 units/mg. AgpC hydrolyzed a wide variety of phosphorylated compounds with high activity for glucose-1-phosphate and glucose-6-phosphate. The optimum pH and temperature for the enzyme activity was pH 5.0 and 45 C, respectively. The Km value for glucose-1-phosphate was 5.12 mM with a Vmax 27.8 U mg − −1 . Its molecular weight was 46 kDa by SDS-PAGE gel and t… Show more

“…With the current bioinformatics methodology, it is not possible to infer the catalytic ability of transphosphorylation from a phosphatase protein structure alone, necessitating the dedicated biochemical characterization. However, there is evidence from the literature (37,(72)(73)(74) that phosphatases related to Agp by common membership in the high-molecular-weight histidine acid phosphatase family also possess transphosphorylation activity, albeit on donor and acceptor substrates different from the ones identified here for Agp. Acceptor substrate selectivity and phosphorylation site selectivity of transphosphorylation will be fine-tuned by positioning of the sugar acceptor substrate in the binding pocket on the phosphoenzyme intermediate.…”

“…Thirdly, some bacteria, particularly Citrobacter sp., Acinetobacter sp., Pseudomonas sp., discovered in wastewater have the ability of producing EEs, such as lipase, protease, amylase, urease and so on . Catalyzed by the EEs, some solid organics can be degraded to digestible organics that can be absorbed and utilized algal cells.…”
