Abstract

In the conversion of D.L-2-amino-$\Delta^2$-thiazoline-4-carboxylic acid(D,L-ATC) to L-cysteine using Pseudomonas sp. CU6. the effects of surfactants on whole cells and the stabilities of cellfree enzyme solution and continuous reactor packed with immobilized whole cells were investigated. The enzymatic reaction was little accomplished by whole cells without adding surfactants, whereas it was well carried out with SDS or Triton X-loo comparable to the case using cell-free enzyme solution. Enzyme activity of the cell-free solution was lost by 50% after 7 hours of storage at $30^{\circ}C$, but not at all under an anaerobic condition by sparging nitrogen gas. On the other hand. effect of nitrogen gas did not appear in a continuous reactor using immobilized whole cells, and hydroxylamine, an inhibitor of L-cysteine desulfhydrase, lowered the enzyme stability.

D,L-ATC의 L-cysteine으로의 생물학적 전환에 있어 균체를 이용할 때, 계면활성제의 영향, 효소의 안정성 및 연속생산공정중의 고정화 균체 반응기의 안정성에 대하여 분석하였다. 계면활성제의 첨가없이 균체만을 이용할 때 반응은 매우 미미하게 이루어졌으나 SDS와 Triton X-100을 첨가할 때 cell-free 조효소액을 이용하는 경우와 비슷한 정도의 결과가 얻어졌다. 효소 활성은 $30^{\circ}C$에서 7시간 저장후 50 저하되었으며 질소가스하의 혐기적인 조건에서는 활성저하가 거의 일어나지 않았다. 이와 같은 효소의 불활성화는 효소에 대한 산소의 작용으로 사료되었다. 그러나, alginate로 고정화한 균체를 이용한 연속반응공정에서 혐기적으로 조건하에서 150시간 내에 대부분의 활성을 잃어버렸으며, L-cysteine 저해제인 hydroxylamine을 첨가할 때 효소활성이 급속히 감소되었다.
