Item Spectroscopic and thermodynamic properties of Debaryomyces hansenii UFV-1 α-galactosidases(International Journal of Biological Macromolecules, 2010-04-01) Rezende, Sebastião T.; Viana, Pollyanna A.; Meza, Andreia N.; Gomide, Felipe T.F.; Nagem, Ronaldo A.P.; Santos, Alexandre M.C.; Santoro, Marcelo M.; Guimarães, Valéria M.Spectroscopic and thermodynamic properties were determined for Debaryomyces hansenii UFV-1 extracellular and intracellular α-galactosidases. α-Galactosidases showed similar secondary structure compositions (α-helix, β-sheet parallel and β-turn). Effects of pH and temperature on the structure of α-galactosidases were investigated using circular dichroism spectroscopy. It was more pronounced at low pH. Microcalorimetry was employed for the determination of thermodynamic parameters. Immediate thermal denaturation reversibility was not observed for α-galactosidases; it occurred as a thermodynamically driven process. Extracellular α-galactosidase, at pH 5.5, showed lower Tm when compared to the intracellular enzyme. The CD and DSC data suggest that D. hansenii α-galactosidases have different behaviors although they possess some similar secondary structures.Item Debaryomyces hansenii UFV-1 intracellular α-Galactosidase characterization and comparative studies with the extracellular enzyme(Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry, 2009-02-18) Rezende, Sebastião T. de; Viana, Pollyanna A.; Passos, Flávia Maria Lopes; Oliveira, Jamil S.; Teixeira, Kádima N.; Santos, Alexandre M. C.; Bemquerer, Marcelo P.; Rosa, José C.; Santoro, Marcelo M.; Guimarães, Valéria M.Debaryomyces hansenii cells cultivated on galactose produced extracellular and intracellular α-galactosidases, which showed 54.5 and 54.8 kDa molecular mass (MALDI-TOF), 60 and 61 kDa (SDS−PAGE) and 5.15 and 4.15 pI values, respectively. The extracellular and intracellular deglycosylated forms presented 36 and 40 kDa molecular mass, with 40 and 34% carbohydrate content, respectively. The N-terminal sequences of the α-galactosidases were identical. Intracellular α-galactosidase showed smaller thermostability when compared to the extracellular enzyme. D. hansenii UFV-1 extracellular α-galactosidase presented higher kcat than the intracellular enzyme (7.16 vs 3.29 s^−1, respectively) for the p-nitrophenyl-α-d-galactopyranoside substrate. The Km for hydrolysis of pNPαGal, melibiose, stachyose, and raffinose were 0.32, 2.12, 10.8, and 32.8 mM, respectively. The intracellular enzyme was acompetitively inhibited by galactose (Ki = 0.70 mM), and it was inactivated by Cu(II) and Ag(I). Enzyme incubation with soy milk for 6 h at 55 °C reduced stachyose and raffinose amounts by 100 and 73%, respectively.Item Activity of Debaryomyces hansenii UFV-1 a-galactosidases against a-D-galactopyranoside derivatives(Carbohydrate Research, 2011-04-01) Rezende, Sebastião T. de; Viana, Pollyanna A.; Alves, Arianne de A.; Manfrini, Rozângela M.; Alves, Ricardo J.; Bemquerer, Marcelo P.; Santoro, Marcelo M.; Guimarães, Valéria M.α-d-Galactopyranosides were synthesized and their inhibitory activities toward the Debaryomyces hansenii UFV-1 extracellular and intracellular α-galactosidases were evaluated. Methyl α-d-galactopyranoside was the most potent inhibitor compared to the others tested, with values of 0.82 and 1.12 mmol L−1, for extracellular and intracellular enzymes, respectively. These results indicate that the presence of a hydroxyl group in the C-6 position of α-d-galactopyranoside derivatives is important for the recognition by D. hansenii UFV-1 α-galactosidases.
