We describe an improved method to purify D-amino acid oxidase with activity towards cephalosporin C. The protein has a carbohydrate content of 1.3% and two molecules of non-covalently bound flavin cofactor per protein molecule. HPLC profiles and enzymatic analysis have indicated that the cofactor is FAD, even though fluorescence spectroscopy shows a slightly altered spectral profile in the 400-500 nm range compared to authentic FAD. N-terminal sequencing of the protein revealed a high level of similarity (56% identity in 25 amino acids) between the fungal and mammalian oxidase, and probably represents a "Rossman fold" with a beta-alpha-beta structure for the binding of the adenosyl moiety of the cofactor.
我们描述了一种改进的方法来纯化对头孢菌素C具有活性的D-氨基酸氧化酶。该蛋白质的碳水化合物含量为1.3%,每个蛋白质分子含有两个非共价结合的黄素辅因子分子。高效液相色谱(HPLC)图谱和酶学分析表明,该辅因子是黄素腺嘌呤二核苷酸(FAD),尽管荧光光谱显示,与纯FAD相比,在400 - 500纳米范围内其光谱轮廓略有改变。该蛋白质的N端测序显示,真菌和哺乳动物氧化酶之间具有高度相似性(25个氨基酸中有56%的同一性),并且可能代表一种具有β-α-β结构的“罗斯曼折叠”,用于结合辅因子的腺苷部分。
