Abstract

A bacterial strain JE-ll found to produce active extracellular phospholipase D (PLD) was selected from the soil isolates. It was identified as Streptomyces somaliensis on the basis of 16S rDNA sequence analysis, morphological and physiological characteristics. The gene (sspld) encoding S. somaliensis PLD was isolated and characterized. The open reading frame was suggested to encode 538 amino acids with a signal peptide of 33 amino acids. The deduced amino acid sequence of the sspld shared a sequence similarity of 70-88％ with PLDs of other Streptomyces sp. so far reported. The PLD converted phosphatidylcholine to phosphatidylglycerol or phosphatidylserine with the yield of 96 to 99％ (㏖/㏖), but did not act on inositol or ethanolamine as a transphosphatidylation donor.

세포외 phospholipase D (PLD)를 과량 생산하는 균주 JE-11을 토양으로부터 분리하였다. 16S rDNA에 의한 분석과 형태적, 생리적 특성을 조사한 결과 이 균은 Streptomyces somaliensis로 동정되었다. 선발한 S. somaliensis로 부터 PLD를 암호화하는 유전자(sspld) 분리하고 염기서열을 조사하였다. Open reading frame을 분석한 결과 33개의 아미노산으로 이루어진 분비 signal peptide와 505개의 아미노산으로 구성된 PLD단백질을 암호화하는 것으로 예상되었다. 또한, sspld의 염기 서열로부터 유추된 단백질 서열은 기존에 보고된 다른 Streptomyces PLD들과 70-88％의 서열 유사성을 보였다. 이 PLD는 96-98％(㏖/㏖)의 수율로서, Phosphatidylcholine을 glycerol과 serine을 기질로 하여 각각 phosphatidylglycerol 과phosphatidylserine으로 전환을 하였으나, 알코올 공여체인 inositol과 ethanolamine과는 반응하지 않았다.
