文摘
A cyanide hydratase from Aspergillus niger K10 was expressed in Escherichia coli and purified. Apart from HCN, it transformed some nitriles, preferentially 2-cyanopyridine and fumaronitrile. Vmax and Km for HCN were ca. 6.8 mmol min鈭? mg鈭? protein and 109 mM, respectively. Vmax for fumaronitrile and 2-cyanopyridine was two to three orders of magnitude lower than for HCN (ca. 18.8 and 10.3 渭mol min鈭? mg鈭?, respectively) but Km was also lower (ca. 14.7 and 3.7 mM, respectively). Both cyanide hydratase and nitrilase activities were abolished in truncated enzyme variants missing 18-34 C-terminal aa residues. The enzyme exhibited the highest activity at 45 掳C and pH 8-9; it was unstable at over 35 掳C and at below pH 5.5. The operational stability of the whole-cell catalyst was examined in continuous stirred membrane reactors with 70-mL working volume. The catalyst exhibited a half-life of 5.6 h at 28 掳C. A reactor loaded with an excess of the catalyst was used to degrade 25 mM KCN. A conversion rate of over 80% was maintained for 3 days.
