Abstract

From a sample of bamboo byproduct, the protease-producing yeast strain CO-1 was newly isolated. Strain CO-1 is spherical to ovoid in shape and measures $3.1-4.0{\times}3.8-4.4{\mu}m$. For the growth of strain CO-1, the optimal temperature and initial pH were $30^{\circ}C$ and 4.0, respectively. The strain was able to grow in 0.0-15.0%(w/v) NaCl and 0.0-9.0%(v/v) ethanol. Based on a phylogenetic analysis of its 18S rDNA sequences, strain CO-1 was identified as Pichia anomala. The extracellular protease produced by P. anomala CO-1 was partially purified by ammonium sulfate precipitation, which resulted in a 14.6-fold purification and a yield of 7.2%. The molecular mass of the protease was recorded as approximately 30 kDa via zymogram. The protease activity reached its maximum when 1.0%(w/v) CMC was used as the carbon source, 1.0%(w/v) yeast extract was used as the nitrogen source, and 0.3%(w/v) $MnSO_4$ was used as the mineral source. The protease revealed the highest activity at pH 7.0 and $30^{\circ}C$. This enzyme maintained more than 75% of its stability at a pH range of 4.0-10.0. After heating at $65^{\circ}C$ for 1 hr, the neutral protease registered at 60% of its original activity. The protease production coincided with growth and attained a maximal level during the post-exponential phase.

세포 외로 단백질분해효소를 생산하는 효모 균주 CO-1을 대나무 부산물에서 분리하였다. CO-1은 원형 또는 타원형($3.1-4.0{\times}3.8-4.4{\mu}m$)으로, 생장을 위한 최적 온도는 $30^{\circ}C$, 초기 pH는 4.0이었다. 그리고 최대 15.0% (w/v)의 NaCl과 9.0%(v/v)의 ethanol 농도에서 생장하였다. 형태적, 생리 생화학적 특성 및 18S rRNA 유전자 염기서열을 통한 계통분석을 이용하여 동정을 실시한 결과 Pichia anomala로 판명되었다. P. anomala CO-1 단백질분해효소를 부분 정제한 결과 수율은 7.2％였으며, 정제 전에 비해 약 14.6배 정제되었다. Zymogram으로 측정한 효소의 분자량은 약 30 kDa으로 확인되었다. 본 균주는 배지 중에 탄소원과 질소원, 무기염으로 1.0%(w/v) CMC와 1.0%(w/v) yeast extract, 0.3%(w/v) $MnSO_4$를 사용하였을 경우 가장 높은 단백질분해효소 활성을 나타내었다. P. anomala CO-1이 생산하는 단백질분해효소의 최적 활성 pH와 온도는 각각 7.0과 $30^{\circ}C$였다. 또한 본 효소는 pH 4.0-10.0에서 75%의 안정성을 나타내었으며, $65^{\circ}C$에서 1시간 가열하여도 60％ 전후의 활성을 유지하였다. 균주의 효소 생산은 생육과 비례하였으며 대수증식기 후반에 최대의 효소 생산을 나타내었다.
