Journal ArticleDOI

Characterization of a thermoalkalophilic esterase from a novel thermophilic bacterium, Anoxybacillus gonensis G2

TL;DR: The thermal and pH stability profiles for the enzyme showed that the thermophilic bacterium A. gonensis G2 secretes an extracellular thermoalkalophilic PHB depolymerase active at 60 degrees C, and stable at this temperature for 120 min at pH 7.5 and for 24 h at pH7.5 range at 4 degrees C by retaining over 75% of its initial activities.
Journal ArticleDOI

Oxidative cleavage of DNA by homo- and heteronuclear Cu(II)-Mn(II) complexes of an oxime-type ligand.

TL;DR: The analyses of the cleavage products obtained electrophoretically indicate that although the examined complexes induces very similar conformational changes on supercoiled DNA by converting super coiled form to nicked form than linear form in a sequential manner as the complex concentration or reaction period is increased, K3 is less effective than the two others.
Journal ArticleDOI

Determination and characterization of thermostable esterolytic activity from a novel thermophilic bacterium Anoxybacillus gonensis A4.

TL;DR: A novel hot spring thermophile, Anoxybacillus gonensis A4 was investigated in terms of capability of tributyrin degradation and characterization of its thermostable esterase activity by the hydrolysis of p-nitrophenyl butyrate (PNPB).
Journal ArticleDOI

Comparative characterization of monophenolase and diphenolase activities from a wild edible mushroom (Macrolepiota mastoidea)

TL;DR: It is clear from the present results that the enzyme extracts prepared from M. mastoidea possess polyphenol oxidase activities with interesting properties.
Journal ArticleDOI

DNA cleavage by homo- and heterotetranuclear Cu(II) and Mn(II) complexes with tetrathioether-tetrathiol moiety.

TL;DR: The findings suggest that SK4 with potent nucleolytic activity is a good nuclease substitute in the presence of cooxidant and the observation of induction of DNA into smaller fragments by SK4 is significant.
