ChiN1 is a multidomain enzyme consisting of a chitin-binding domain, a polycystic kidney disease domain and a catalytic domain belonging to glycoside hydrolase family 18. chiN1 gene was successfully expressed in extremely halophilic archaeon Haloarcula japonica TR-1 by employing the promoter sequence of its cell surface glycoprotein gene. A large amount of recombinant ChiN1 was secreted into the culture supernatant. The Ha. japonica-produced ChiN1 was purified and characterized. The optimal pH and temperature of ChiN1 are pH 4.5 and 55°C, respectively. ChiN1 was most active at 1.0 M NaCl and stable over a wide range of NaCl concentration from 1.0 to 4.5 M. This is the first report on a chitinase from extremely halophilic archaeon.","PeriodicalId":204480,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Japanese Society for Extremophiles","volume":"113 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124718730","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Comparison of seven complete amino acid sequences from seven species of Haloarcula_and those from Har. californiae and Har. japonica, whose N-terminal 3 amino acids have not been determined yet, revealed that they are very similar and differed at only 1 to 4 residues in 153 residues. NDKs from Haloarcula quadrata and Har. sinaiiensis differed only at the 30th amino acid (arginine vs. cysteine), yet they showed a remarkable difference in their salt-response patterns, suggesting that a single amino acid substitution can cause a one molar shift in the optimal NaCl concentration.","PeriodicalId":204480,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Japanese Society for Extremophiles","volume":"170 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122422983","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Fukui, Satoshi Nakamura","doi":"10.3118/JJSE.4.14","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.3118/JJSE.4.14","url":null,"abstract":"The ferredoxin (Fd) from Haloarcula japonica possesses a plant-type [2Fe-2S] cluster and is stable at high salt concentrations. Ha. japonica Fd (HjFd) includes an N-terminal additional domain rich in acidic amino acids, as well as a common core domain that contains the Fe-S cluster. The N-terminally HAT-tagged intact HjFd (HAT/HjFd) and spinach/Ha. japonica chimeric Fd (HAT/Sp/HjFd) were prepared and characterized. Escherichia coli-produced HAT/Sp/HjFd and Ha. japonica-produced HAT/HjFd were produced as holoproteins. On the other hand, E. coli-produced HAT/HjFd did not incorporate the Fe-S cluster. These results suggested that the N-terminal domain of HjFd contributed to the polypeptide folding and successive Fe-S cluster incorporation under high salt conditions. Both Ha. japonica-produced HAT/HjFd and E. coli-produced HAT/Sp/HjFd were stable at high salt concentrations (≥1.5 M NaCl), although a reduction in stability was observed at lower concentrations. Lack of the N-terminal domain did not affect the stability of HjFd, indicating that the core domain mainly contributed to the stability of HjFd at high salt concentrations. Solubility of E. coli-produced HAT/Sp/HjFd under high salt conditions was significantly lower than that of Ha. japonica-produced HAT/HjFd. It was revealed that substitution of the N-terminal domain of HjFd to that of spinach Fd injured the solubility of HjFd. Thus, it was concluded that the N-terminal domain of HjFd should perform the essential functions for halophilic adaptation from the folding process through the folded state.","PeriodicalId":204480,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Japanese Society for Extremophiles","volume":"9 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125150143","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To characterize the expected enzyme activity the plasmid having a modified ykoN that include the sequence for His(x6) tag at its C-terminus of YkoN, which has 373 amino acid residues, was constructed. His-tagged YkoN protein of 39 kDa was induced in Escherichia coli BL21 (DE3) cells harboring chaperon plasmid pGro7 and purified to near homogeneity by using gel filtration and Ni-agarose. When p-nitrophenyl-esters of different fatty acid chain length were examined, the purified YkoN hydrolyzed the esters of fatty acid with short chain length (4-6 carbon atoms) preferentially. The esters of fatty acid with longer chain (C ≥ 10) were hydrolyzed inefficiently. The activity required no divalent cations and was not affected by addition of EDTA. The optimal pH for the activity was from pH 7.4 to pH 8.6. These results indicate that YkoN is a novel esterase which hydrolyzes the esters of fatty acid with short chain length.","PeriodicalId":204480,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Japanese Society for Extremophiles","volume":"46 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125010692","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The results indicated that the typical cold-seep microbial communities of bacteria and archaea were basically similar in different depth environments and consisted of the delta-Proteobacteria (including sulfate reducing bacterial group) as well as methanogenic archaea, which played an important role in sulfur circulation in the seep environment. More abundant microbes were also identified in deeper cold-seep environments. These observations suggested that the cold-seep activity at the deepest depths of the Japan Trench might be more dynamic than in the shallower land slope. This is the first suggestion describing the relationship between microbial mass and cold-seep activity.","PeriodicalId":204480,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Japanese Society for Extremophiles","volume":"20 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126679116","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
