    Abstract Proteolytic Aeromonas caviae P-1-1 growing at wide-ranging pH (7.0-11.0) and moderate salinity (0-5% NaCl) was isolated from cattle shed of Thanjavur, India. It produced lipase, gelatinase, and polyhydroxybutyrate. Different culture conditions, incubation time, carbon and nitrogen sources, vitamins, amino acids, surfactants, and metal ions for optimal growth and protease production of P-1-1 were examined. Maximum protease (0.128 U/mL) production was achieved with 1% fructose, 1% yeast extract, 0.1% ammonium sulfate, 3% NaCl, 0.1% CaCl

    Abstract Xenon is frequently used as a general anesthetic in humans, but the mechanism remains an issue of debate. While for some membrane proteins, a direct interaction of xenon with the protein has been shown to be the inhibitory mechanism, other membrane protein functions could be affected by changes of membrane properties due to partitioning of the gas into the lipid bilayer. Here, the effect of xenon on a mechanosensitive ion channel and a copper ion-translocating ATPase was compared under different conditions. Xenon inhibited spontaneous gating of the Escherichia coli mechano-sensitive mutant channel MscL-G22E, as shown by patch-clamp recording techniques. Under high hydrostatic pressure, MscL-inhibition was reversed. Similarly, the activity of the Enterococcus hirae CopB copper ATPase, reconstituted into proteoliposomes, was inhibited by xenon. However, the CopB ATPase activity was also inhibited by xenon when CopB was in a solubilized state. These findings suggest that xenon acts by directly interacting with these proteins, rather than via indirect effects by altering membrane properties. Also, inhibition of copper transport may be a novel effect of xenon that contributes to anesthesia.

    Abstract A haloalkalitolerant xylanase-producing Bacillus pumilus strain, GESF1 was isolated from an experimental salt farm of CSMCRI. Birch wood xylan and xylose induced maximum xylanase production with considerable activity seen in wheat straw and no activity at all with caboxymethyl cellulose (CMC). A three step purification yielded 21.21-fold purification with a specific activity of 112.42 U/mg protein (unit expressed as μmole of xylose released per min). Xylanase produced showed an optimum activity at pH 8.0, with approximately 50 and 30% relative activity at a pH 6.0 and 10.0, respectively. The temperature optimum was 40℃ and kinetic properties such as K∧m and V∧max were 5.3 mg/mL and 0.42 μmol/min/mL (6593.4 μmol/min/mg protein). Xylanase activity (160 ~ 120%) was considerably enhanced in 2.5 to 7.5% NaCl with 87 and 73% retention of activity in 10 and 15% of NaCl. Enzyme activity was enhanced by Ca²+, Mn²+, Mg²+, and Na+ but strongly inhibited by heavy metals such as Hg²+, Fe³+, Cu²+, Cd²+, and Zn²+. Organic reagents such as β-Mercaptoethanol enhanced xylanase activity whereas EDTA strongly inhibited its activity. Xylanase, purified from the Bacillus pumilus strain, GESF1 could have potential biotechnological applications.
