A 60 kDa phospholipase D (PLD) was obtained from Streptomyces olivochromogenes by one-step chromatography on Sepharose CL-6B. Maximal activity was at pH 8 and 75 degrees C and the enzyme was stable from pH 7 to 13 and from 55 to 75 degrees C. Thermal and pH stability with temperature optimum of the enzyme were highest among Streptomyces PLDs reported so far. The activity was Ca(2+)-dependent and enhanced by detergents. The Km and Vmax values for phosphatidylcholine were 0.6 mM and 650 mumol min(-1) mg(-1), respectively. In addition, the enzyme also revealed transphosphatidylation activity, which was optimum at pH 8 and 50 degrees C. The first 15 amino acid residues of the N terminal sequence were ADYTPGAPGIGDPYY, which are significantly different from the other known PLDs. The enzyme may therefore be a novel PLD with potential application in the lipid industry.

Glucose isomerase (GI) is crucial in high-fructose corn syrup production. This study introduces a novel approach to enhance GI stability and reusability through whole-cell encapsulation of Streptomyces olivochromogenes PTCC 1457 in hybrid microbeads, utilizing keratin as a multifunctional stabilizer and cross-linker. Optimal bead formation was achieved using 2 % alginate, 2-3 % CaCl, and 2.

Signalosomes are high-order protein machineries involved in complex mechanisms controlling regulated immune defense and cell death execution. The immune response is initiated by the recognition of exogeneous or endogenous signals, triggering the signalosome assembly process. The final step of signalosome fate often involves membrane-targeting and activation of pore-forming execution domains, leading to membrane disruption and ultimately cell death.

A novel actinomycete, designated strain QMT-28, was isolated from rhizosphere soil of collected from Shuangfeng, Hunan Province, PR China. Strain QMT-28 grew well on International Project series media and formed well-developed, branched substrate hyphae and aerial mycelium that differentiated into loose spiral spore chains consisting of cylindrical spores with smooth surfaces. The diagnostic diamino acid was ll-diaminopimelic acid and the whole-cell sugars were galactose and glucose.
