Sulochrin oxidase, an enzyme catalyzing regio- and stereospecific phenol oxidative coupling reaction to form (+)-bisdechlorogeodin from sulochrin, was isolated from Penicillium frequentans CMI 96659. By chromatographies on DEAE-cellulose, hydroxyapatite, Phenyl-Sepharose, Mono P, Mono Q, and HPLC gel filtration columns, sulochrin oxidase was purified to apparent homogeneity. The purified enzyme had a molecular weight of 230 K as estimated by gel filtration and 110 K as estimated by sodium dodecylsulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis under denaturing conditions, suggesting that the active enzyme was a homodimer. The enzyme showed pI 4.0 and an optimum pH of 6. The enzyme activity was strongly inhibited by the copper-chelating reagent, diethyldithiocarbamate, and did not recover its full activity even after removing the inhibitor by dialysis. However, enzyme activity was fully restored by the addition of Cu2+. Thus, sulochrin oxidase is considered to be a copper protein. The enzyme showed high substrate specificity for benzophenone compounds such as sulochrin and dihydrogeodin.
Sulochrin 氧化酶是一种催化区域特异性和立体特异性苯酚氧化偶联反应的酶,可从 Sulochrin 中形成 (+)-双脱氯乔丁 (Penicillium permanentans CMI 96659)。通过 DEAE-纤维素、羟基磷灰石、Phenyl-Sepharose、Mono P、Mono Q 色谱分析,并用HPLC凝胶过滤柱,将sulochrin氧化酶纯化至表观同质性。纯化酶的分子量通过凝胶过滤估计为230 K,通过十二烷基硫酸钠-聚丙烯酰胺凝胶电泳在变性条件下估计分子量为110 K,这表明活性酶是同型二聚体。该酶的pI为4.0,最适pH为6。该酶活性受到铜螯合剂二乙基二硫代氨基甲酸盐的强烈抑制,即使通过透析除去抑制剂后也没有恢复其全部活性。然而,添加 Cu2+ 后酶活性完全恢复。因此,硫氯蛋白氧化酶被认为是一种铜蛋白。该酶对二苯甲酮化合物(如 Sulochrin 和二氢地黄素)表现出高底物特异性。
