Optimum pH for forward and reverse reaction was found to be 6.5 and 7.8 respectively. The enzyme was most stable around pH 6.5 at 25 degrees C for 90 min. The enzyme showed k(cat)/k(m) for feruloyl, caffeoyl, sinapoyl, coumaroyl CoA, coniferaldehyde and sinapaldehyde as 4.6, 2.4, 2.3, 1.7, 1.9 and 1.2 (x10(6) M-1 s(-1)), respectively, indicating affinity of enzyme for feruloyl CoA over other substrates and preference of reduction reaction over oxidation. Activation energy, E-a for various substrates was found to be in the range of 20-50 kJ/mol. Involvement of probable carboxylate ion, histidine, lysine or tyrosine at the active site of enzyme was predicted by pH activity profile. SAXS studies of protein showed radius 3.04 nm and volume 49.25 nm(3) with oblate ellipsoid shape. Finally, metal ion inhibition studies revealed that Ll-CCRH1 is a metal independent enzyme.

Bacopa monniera recombinant MDD (BmMDD) protein was overexpressed in Escherichia coli BL21 (DE3) strain and purified to apparent homogeneity. K-m and V-max for MVAPP were 144 mu M and 52 U mg(-1) respectively. The values of turnover (k(cat)) and k(cat)/K-m, for mevalonate 5-diphosphate were determined to be 40 s(-1) and 2.77 x 10(5) M-1 s(-1) and k(cat) and k(cat)/K-m values for ATP were found to be 30 s(-1) and 2.20 x 10(4) M-1 s(-1), respectively. pH activity profile indicated the involvement of carboxylate ion, lysine and arginine for the activity of enzyme. The apparent activation energy for the BmMDD catalyzed reaction was 12.7 kJ mol(-1). Optimum pH and temperature for the forward reaction was found to be 8.0 and 45 degrees C. The enzyme was most stable at pH 7 at 20 degrees C with the deactivation rate constant (K-d(*)) of 1.69 x 10(-4) and half life (t(1/2)) of 68 h. The cation studies suggested that BmMDD is a cation dependant enzyme and optimum activity was achieved in the presence of Mg2+. (C) 2015 Elsevier B.V.

MK catalyzes the phosphorylation of mevalonate to form mevalonate-5-phosphate. The recombinant BmMK was cloned and over-expressed in E. coli BL21 (DE3), and purified to homogeneity by affinity chromatography followed by gel filtration. Optimum pH and temperature for forward reaction was found to be 7.0 and 30 degrees C, respectively. The enzyme was most stable at pH 8 at 25 degrees C with deactivation rate constant (Kd*) 1.398 x 10(-4) and half life (t(1/2)) 49 h. pH activity profile of BmMK indicates the involvement of carboxylate ion, histidine, lysine, arginine or aspartic acid at the active site of enzyme. Activity of recombinant BmMK was confirmed by phosphorylation of RS-mevalonate in the presence of Mg2+, having K-m and V-max 331.9 mu M and 719.1 pKat mu g(-1), respectively. The values of k(cat) and k(cat)/K-m for RS-mevalonate were determined to be 143.82 s(-1) and 0.43332 M-1 s(-1) and k(cat) and k(cat)/K-m values for ATP were found 150.9 s(-1) and 1.023 M-1 s(-1). The metal ion studies suggested that BmMK is a metal dependent enzyme and highly active in the presence of MgCl2. (C) 2014 Elsevier B.V.
