Isolation and Characterization of Peroxidase from Jerusalem Artichoke Tubers

돼지감자 Peroxidase의 분리와 특성

Peroxidase from Jerusalem artichoke tubers, which might be related to browning reaction, was purified by ammonium sulfate precipitation, DEAE-cellulose and Sephacryl S-200 chromatography. The optimum pH of the purified peroxidase was 5.0 and relatively stable at pH $5.0{\sim}6.0$ using substrate of p-phenylenediamine and $H_2O_2$. D-values for thermal inactivation at 60, 70 and $80^{\circ}C$ were 86, 45 and 33 sec, respectively. Activation energy was 4,111 J/mole. The enzyme showed the most sensitive specificity of substrate for p-phenylenediamine. The compounds such as 1mM potassium cyanide, 10mM sodium diethyldithiocarbamate, L-ascorbic acid, sodium hydrosulfite and L-cysteine inhibited completely while 1mM of $Ca^{2+}\;and\;Cu^{2+}$ activated the purified peroxidase.

가공 과정 중 갈변에 관여하는 돼지감자의 peroxidase가 ammonium sulfate, DEAE-cellulose column, Sephacryl S-200 column chromatography에 의하여 36.65배로 정제되었다. 이 효소는 p-phenylenediamine을 기질로 사용하였을 때 pH5.0가 활성 최적 pH이었으며 pH $5.0{\sim}6.0$의 범위에서 비교적 안정하였다. 열 불활성화 곡선은 1차 곡선에서 벗어났고 60, 70, $80^{\circ}C$에서의 D값은 각각 86, 45, 33초이었으며 활성화에너지는 4,111 J/mole이었다. 이 효소의 기질특이성은 amine류 중에서 p-phenylenediamine과 가장 친화력이 좋았고 potassium cyanate, sodium diethyldithiocarbamate, L-ascorbic acid, sodium hydrosulfite, L-cysteine에 의해 활성이 완전히 억제되었으며 $Ca^{2+},\;Cu^{2+}$에 의해서는 활성이 촉진되었다.
