。 ? heat。 solubility increase! Salting out (Can be used for fractionation) Beyond a certain ionic strength( ) , the charged molecules are quickly precipitated because the excess ions (not bound to the protein) pete with proteins for the solvent. Saltingout effect: ions take ?all‘ water, expose the nonpolar surface。Chapter 4 Purification of Enzymes Proteins are very diverse. They differ by size, shape, charge, hydrophobicity, and their affinity for other molecules. All these properties can be exploited to separate them from one another so that they can be studied individually. Objectives ?Purity ?Stable ?Cost ?Time Purification typically involves three steps 1) Preparation of a crude extract from harvested cells 2) Fractionation: Separation of a mixture of proteins into various fractions according to some property (. size, charge, solubility) 3) Separation of protein from solvents and concentration Unit 1 Preparation of Crude Enzymes Endoenzyme: intracellular Most enzymes of the metabolic pathways. Exoenzyme: extracellular Break down (hydrolyze) large food molecules or harmful chemicals. Example: cellulase, amylase, penicillinase. Solid/Liquid Separation When harvesting broth cultures, how are cells separated from the broth? Decanter Centrifuge Clarified liquid Rotating Bowl Rotating scroll Frame Filter How to improve filter velocity? 1) Flocculation and Agglomeration 2) Decrease viscosity 3) Filter aid Cell Disruption The main ponent of cell wall ? Bacteria : Peptidoglycan ? Yeast: Dextran, Mannose, Protein ? Mycelial fungus: Chitin, Dextran ? Gram Positive Bacterial Cell Wall Gram Negative Cell Wall Fungus Cell Wall Mechanical methods Grinding ( in liquid nitrogen, ball mill )- Dry way Homogenization ( mortar , homogenizer) Wet way Physical methods temperature difference ( freezing and thawing ) pressure difference( osmotic shock) ultrasonication Chemical treatment anic solvents detergents: Triton X100, Tween ( used if enzyme is in lipid membrane ) Enzyme lysis autolysis extra enzyme Ways to break cell Bead Mill Cascading beads Cells being disrupted Rolling beads Sonicator Sonicator Disrupts tissue by creating vibrations which cause mechanical shearing of the cell wall.
