Abstract

Tolaasin, peptide toxin produced by Pseudomonas tolaasii, causes a brown blotch disease on the cultivated mushrooms. Tolaasin peptides form membrane pores and disrupt cellular membrane structure. Molecular actions of tolaasin consist of the aggregation of peptide molecules, binding to the cell membrane, and formation of membrane pores. Therefore, the inhibitions of any of these actions are able to suppress the blotch disease. We have isolated and identified several tolaasin inhibitors (named tolaasin inhibitory factors, TIF) from food additives. TIFs were able to suppress the blotch-formation by the pathogen inoculated to the mushrooms. In this study, TIFs were incubated under various conditions and their activities for the inhibition of tolaasin-induced hemolytic activity were investigated. Since TIFs are unsaturated carbon compounds, they were sensitive to the air exposure and light irradiation. In the anaerobic conditions, TIFs were stable and their activities were decreased by 10% for three months. However, near 90% of TIF activity was suppressed by two weeks in the presence of air and sun light. Temperature did not show any significant effects on the activity of TIF, since storages at 5, 25, $45^{\circ}C$ did not show any difference. Therefore, for the stable storage of TIF compounds, container should be designed to be dark and air-tight.

톨라신은 Pseudomonas tolaasii에 의해 생성되는 펩티드 독소이며, 인공재배 버섯에 갈반병을 일으킨다. 톨라신 펩티드는 막에 pore를 형성하고, 세포막 구조를 파괴한다. 톨라신의 분자 작용은 톨라신 분자들의 응집, 세포막 결합, 세포막에서의 pore 형성으로 이루어져 있다. 따라서, 이 작용의 억제는 갈반병을 억제할 수 있다. 식품첨가물로부터 몇몇의 톨라신 저해제(tolaasin inhibitory factors, TIF)를 얻었다. TIF는 버섯에 감염된 병원균에 의한 갈반 형성을 억제할 수 있었다. 본 연구에서는 TIF를 다양한 조건에서 보관하였으며, 톨라신에 의한 세포 독성의 저해에 대해 이들의 활성을 조사하였다. TIF는 불포화탄소 화합물이기 때문에 대기 노출과 빛 조사에 민감하다. 혐기적 조건에서 TIF는 3개월동안 안정하였고, 효과는 10% 정도 감소하였다. 그러나 빛과 공기와 접촉한 조건에서는 2주동안 90% 가까이 TIF 활성이 억제되었다. 5, 25, $45^{\circ}C$의 저장온도에서는 어떠한 차이도 보이지 않았기 때문에 온도는 TIF의 안정성에 유의적인 영향을 끼치지 않았다. 따라서, TIF 화합물의 안정적인 저장을 위해서는 용기는 밀폐되고, 빛은 차단되어야 한다.
