Rhodotorula glutinis IFO 0559에서 유래하는 L-phenylalanine ammonia lyase(EC 4. 3. 1. 5)를 이용하거나, 유도된 세포자체를 이용하여 trans-cinnamic acid로부터 L-phenylalanine을 생합성할 때 극단적인 반응액이 미치는 효소 및 세포의 안정성에 대하여 조사하였다. 그리고 안정제를 첨가한 60％의 glycerol은 효소의 안정화에 효과를 보였으며 trans-cinnamic acid에서 L-phenylalanine으로의 전이율은 80％까지 되었다. 이에 아울러 전이율을 보다 신속하고 정확히 측정할 수 있는 wavelength scanning 방법을 개발하였다.

Microorganisms isolated from soil (150 strains), fungi (39 strains), yeasts (9 strains) and Streptomyces species (39 strains) were assayed for L-phenylalanine ammonia-lyase(PAL) activity. 17 strains of fungi and 46 strains of soil isolates were proved to produce PAL, Aspergillus panamensis, Penicillium varioti and 11 soil isolates showed comparatively large PAL activity. When PAL activity was assayed with cell-free extracts of these 13 strains and 7 strains of Rhodotorula and Rhodosporidium geni, Rhodosporidium toruloides (IFO 0559) showed the highest PAL activity with 0.333 units per g of the wet cell weight.

The ectomycorrhizal fungus Tricholoma matsutake grows symbiotically with Pinus densiflora. Phenylalanine ammonia-lyase (E.C. 4.3.1.24) catalyzes the conversion of L-phenylalanine to trans-cinnamic acid. The role of fungal phenylalanine ammonia-lyase, however, has not been clear until now. In this study, the gene encoding phenylalanine ammonia-lyase (PAL), which was isolated from T. matsutake, was cloned and characterized. The PAL gene (tmpal) consists of 2,160 nucleotides, coding for a polypeptide containing 719 amino acid residues. The deduced amino acid sequence of tmpal from T. matsutake shows high identity (70%) with that from Laccaria bicolor. Comparative analysis of the PAL genes among T. matsutake and other species of the class Agaricomycetes showed that both active sites and binding sites were significantly conserved among these genes. The transcriptional analysis of the PAL gene revealed a differential gene expression pattern depending on the developmental stages (mycelium, primordium, stipe, pileus, and gills) of T. matsutake. These results suggest that the PAL gene in T. matsutake plays an important role in multiple physiological functions.

딸기의 2차대사에 관여하는 phenylalanine ammonia-lyase는 풍미나 색소, 향기 등에 큰 영향을 미치며 숙도 측정지표로 여겨진다. phenylalanine ammonia-lyase는 숙성 전단계에 걸쳐 활성을 나타내기는 하나 완숙기와 과숙기에 그 활성이 뚜렷이 증가하였다. 이는 딸기의 숙성과 더불어 de novo 합성이 되기 때문으로 보인다. 분자량은 겔 크로마토그래피로 260,000으로 나타났다.

진균의 phenylalanine ammonia-lyase(PAL)와 식물의 PAL간 그리고 PAL과 histidine ammonia-lyase (HAL)간의 구조적 특성 관계에 대한 이해를 얻기 위해 옥수수병원균인 깜부기균(Ustilago maydis)의 PAL에 대한 면역학적 분석을 수행하였다. 진균의 PAL 항체와 식물의 PAL 항체를 이용하여 분석하였을 때 실험한 모든 종의 PAL 간에 교차반응이 나타났다. 알팔파 PAL 항체와 포플라 PAL 항체 모두 식물 PAL은 강하게 인식하였으나 진균의 PAL은 약하게 인식하였다. U. maydis PAL은 Rhodotorula glutinis 효모의 PAL만 약하게 인식하였다. U. maydis PAL은 식물의 PAL에 대해서 낮은 친화성을 보였으나 Pseudomonas 세균의 HAL에 대해서는 강한친화성을 보였다. 2종의 식물 PAL 항체들 또한 Pseudomonas 세균의 HAL에 대해 강한 친화성을 보였다. 진균과 식물의 PAL 항체는 PAL 효소의 활성 저해를 나타냈으며 세균의 HAL 효소의 활성에 대해서도 중도적 저해를 나타냈다. 세균의 HAL 항체는 식물과 효모와 Ustilago PAL 중에 Ustilago PAL 활성만 저해하였다. 식물의 PAL과 진균의 PAL 모두 효모의 PAL 활성은 저해하지 못했다. 본 연구는 PAL과 HAL간에 면역학적 관계가 있음을 처음으로 보고한다.

The conversion of trans-cinnamic acid to phenylalanine using phenylalanine ammonia lyase (PAL) was examined. The optimum concentration of trans-cinnamic acid for the reaction was observed at 100 mM in cells and at 20 mM in cell free extracts, respectively. The production of L-phenylalanine was increased in both experiments as the concentration of ammonia was increased up to 10 M. The optimal pHs for the maximal conversion of trans-cinnamic acid to L-phenylalanine were 9.5 and 9.0 in experiments carried out with cells and with cell free extracts, respectively.

Ephedra olistachya cultures have been known to accumulate $rho-coumaroylamino$ acids by elicitor treatment. Based on their chemical structures, the biosynthetic pathway of$rho-coumaroylamino$acids was postulated and phenylalanine ammonia-lyase (PAL), cinnamic acid 4-hydroxylase (4-CH) and p-coumaroyl CoA: D-Ala p-coumaroyltransferase ($rho-CT$) were supposed to be involved in the pathway. The time course inductions of these enzymes were investigated after treatment of yeast extract, yeast-derived mannan glycopeptide and D-Ala. They were detectable at only 4 hours and reached to their maximum level at 9 hours after onset of elicitor treatment. The activities of PAL and 4-CH were almost disappeared within 24 hours, however, that of $rho-CT$was remained up to 48 hours irrespective of the kind of elicitors. $rho-CT$ showed substrate specificity to D-Ala at crude enzyme extract level.

To improve phenylalanine ammonia lyase (E.C.4.3.1.5-PAL) activity in recombinant Escherichia coli, Some approaches for improving phenylalanine ammonia lyase (PAL) activity in recombinant E. coli were developed following preliminary studies by means of response surface method. The results shown that permeabilization with combination of Triton X-100, cetyl trimethyl ammonium bromide (CTAB), and acetone enriched cellular recombinant PAL activity significantly, which improved over 10-fold as compared with the control (untreat cell), as high as 181.37 U/g. The optimum values for the tested variables were Triton X-100 0.108 g/L, CTAB 0.15 g/L, and acetone 45.2%(v/v). Furthermore, a second-order model equation was suggested and then validated experimentally. It was indicated that addition of surfactants and organic solvents made the cells more permeable and therefore allowed easier access of the substrate to the enzyme and excretion of the product, which increased the rate of transport of L-phenylalanine and trans-cinnamic acids. These improved methods of PAL activity enrichment could serve as a rich enzyme source, especially in the biosynthesis of L-phenylalanine.

Optimal cultivation conditions for the production of phenylalanine ammonia-lyase(PAL) from Rhodotorula aurantiaca K-505 were selected, and the kinetic parameters of the produced PAL were determined. The most suitable carbon and nitrogen sources were glucose and tryptone, respectively. The strain expressed PAL constituttively when using the optimized semi-complex media. High cell density culture could be critical for maximal production of PAl since the PAL ynthesis was growth associated. maximum PAL activity was observed at initial pH 6.0. although the ll growth was not markedly affected by temperature between 22 and 28$^{\circ}C$, the cells yielded the maximum PAL activity when cultivated at 22$^{\circ}C$. The maximum activity for deamination of L-phenylalnine to trans-cinnamic acid was observed around pH 8.8. The PAL activity gave the maximum at 45$^{\circ}C$, and greatly decreased at higher than 5$0^{\circ}C$. Activation energy({TEX}$E_{a}${/TEX}) calculated from Arrhenius equation was 6.28 kcal/mol in the range of 22$^{\circ}C$ to 4$0^{\circ}C$. A oolf plot showed that the enzyme reaction follows Michaelis-Menten equation, whose {TEX}$K_{M}${/TEX} and {TEX}$V_{max}${/TEX} values were 4.65$\times${TEX}$10^{-3}${/TEX} M and 0.89$\mu$ mol/mg-min respectively.

Effects of controlled- and uncontrolled-pH operations on phenylalanine ammonia lyase (PAL) production by a recombinant Escherichia coli strain were investigated at uncontrolled-pH ($pH_{UC}$) and controlled-pH ($pH_C$) of 5.5, 6.0, 6.5, 7.0, 7.5, 8.0, and 8.5 in bioreactor systems. The results showed that the recombinant PAL activity was improved significantly by controlled pH strategy. Among the $pH_C$ operations, the highest PAL activities were obtained under $pH_C$ 7.5 strategy where cell mass ($OD_{600\;nm}$) and PAL activity was 1.3 and 1.8 fold higher than those of $pH_{UC}$, respectively. The maximum PAL activity reached 123 U/g. The $pH_C$ 7.5 strategy made recombinant plasmid more stable and therefore allowed easier expression of PAL recombinant plasmid, which increased PAL production. It was indicated that the new approach (controlled-pH strategy) obtained in this work possessed a high potential for the industrial production of PAL, especially in the biosynthesis of L-phenylalanine.
