- Abstract
- The catabolic acetolactate synthase (cALS) of Enterococcus faecalis V583 was cloned, expressed in Escherichia colt, and purified to homogeneity. The purified protein had a molecular weight of 60 kDa. The cALS of E. faecalis is highly homologous with other cALSs, while sharing low homology with its anabolic counterparts. The cALS of E. faecalis exhibits optimum activity at a temperature of 37 degrees C and pH 6.8. Based on the enzyme characterization, the apparent K-m for pyruvate was calculated to be 1.37 mM, while the K-c for thiamin diphosphate (ThDP) and Mg2+ were found to be 0.031 mu M and 1.27 mM, respectively. Negligible absorbance at 450 nm and lack of activity enhancement upon addition of flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD) to the assay buffer suggest that the cALS of E. faecalis is not FAD-dependent. The enzyme showed extreme stability against the organic solvent dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), whereas the activity decreased to less than 50% in the presence of acetone and ethanol.
