Enzyme characterization according to literature

In the study by Kari Aa, Ragnar Flengsrud, Viggo Lindahl, and Arne Tronsmo (1994), titled "Characterization of production and enzyme properties of an endo-β-1,4-glucanase from Bacillus subtilis CK-2 isolated from compost soil", the authors investigated the properties of an endo-β-1,4-glucanase enzyme produced by Bacillus subtilis CK-2 (Aa et al. 1994).

Bacillus subtilis CK-2, isolated from composted garden organic waste, produces endo-β-1,4-glucanase that exhibits high hydrolytic activity against carboxymethylcellulose (CMC). The production of this enzyme is associated with the bacterium's sporulation process and is regulated by the concentration of readily metabolizable carbohydrates in the growth medium. The induction of enzyme production does not require the presence of CMC or other cellulose-containing materials (Aa et al. 1994).

The enzyme activity was assessed by incubating diluted enzyme solutions with 1% CMC in various buffers covering a pH range from 3.2 to 9.6 for 30 minutes. The purified endo-β-1,4-glucanase demonstrated optimal activity over a broad pH spectrum, achieving peak performance at pH 5.6 in citrate/phosphate buffer and at pH 5.8 in phosphate buffer (Aa et al. 1994).

Temperature profiling revealed that the enzyme reaches maximum activity at 65 °C. The enzyme's activity was evaluated at temperatures ranging from 10 °C to 80 °C for a 30-minute incubation period, followed by a standard activity assay at 50 °C to determine residual activity. Thermal stability tests indicated that the enzyme retains its activity up to 55 °C but loses functionality when exposed to temperatures above this threshold for 30 minutes (Aa et al. 1994).

Molecular weight analysis through SDS-PAGE showed that the enzyme is a monomer with an approximate size of 35.5 kDa. In contrast, Sephadex G-75 chromatography suggested the presence of an active dimeric form with a molecular weight around 70 kDa, indicating that the active enzyme may function as a dimer (Aa et al. 1994).
