In this paper we present the effect of penicillin G acylase immobilization on amino-functionalized mesoporous silica and the effect of silica as host matrix on enzyme kinetics. The loading capacity of immobilized Penicillin G acylase is 34 mg protein per 0.5 g of SBA-15. About 65% of the protein was adsorbed on mesoporous silica. The stability of penicillin acylase was enhanced after immobilization on mesoporous silica. The adsorbed enzyme is more stable than the soluble form, both to temperature and pH environments and retained 73% of its activity.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">4</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Article</style></work-type><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Indian</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">0.242</style></custom4></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Shah, Pallavi</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Sridevi, N.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Prabhune, Asmita</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ramaswamy, Veda</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Structural features of Penicillin acylase adsorption on APTES functionalized SBA-15</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Microporous and Mesoporous Materials</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Penicillin G acylase</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">PGA immobilized SBA-15</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">pH and temperatures stability</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">SBA-15</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2008</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">DEC</style></date></pub-dates></dates><number><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1-3</style></number><publisher><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV</style></publisher><pub-location><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">PO BOX 211, 1000 AE AMSTERDAM, NETHERLANDS</style></pub-location><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">116</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">157-165</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;The immobilization of Penicillin acylase (PGA) enzyme (which belongs to the Ntn hydrolase super family) into the amino-functionalized SBA-15 mesoporous molecular sieve is carried out to see the effect of silica as a host matrix on the enzyme kinetics. Physicochemical characterization by nitrogen adsorption, powder XRD and TEM methods indicate that the characteristic hexagonal features and the original pore structure of the parent SBA-15 is retained even after the incorporation of PGA. The adsorption of PGA on SBA15 shows a dependence on the pore volume and the composition of the adsorbent. The maximum loading of the enzyme was observed at pH 7.8, slightly below the isoelectric point of the enzyme. The loading capacity of immobilized PGA is 34 mg protein per 0.5 g of SBA-15. The trapped enzyme is more stable than the soluble form to temperature and pH environments and retained 73% of its activity after immobilization. This enhanced stability is attributed to the protective nature of the cage itself and to the rigidity of the SiO(2) matrix, which reduces the freedom of peptide-chain refolding of molecular motions that occur in denaturation processes. The strength of binding is very strong; however, the activity of the immobilized enzyme is then simply restored with very little leakage of enzyme from the support. An important feature of the immobilized PGA enzyme is the excellent reusability without significant loss in activity, which indicates potentially exciting industrial/biomedical application of this support.
