New Method for 5′−Nucleotidase Preparation and Evaluation of Its Catalytic Activity
In this study, we established a new methodology for preparing 5′−nucleotidase (5′−NT) with the aim of enhancing our understanding of its enzyme activity and laying a basis for regulating the content of umami−enhancing nucleotides in pork. 5′−NT was prepared with Sephadex gel filtration and reverse−p...

description | In this study, we established a new methodology for preparing 5′−nucleotidase (5′−NT) with the aim of enhancing our understanding of its enzyme activity and laying a basis for regulating the content of umami−enhancing nucleotides in pork. 5′−NT was prepared with Sephadex gel filtration and reverse−phase high−performance liquid chromatography, and its enzymatic properties and catalytic activity were evaluated. The results show that the molecular weight of the prepared 5′−NT was 57 kDa, the optimal catalytic temperature was 40 °C, and the optimal pH was 8. Zn<sup>2+</sup>, and sucrose showed inhibitory effects on the activity of 5′−NT, while K<sup>+</sup>, Na<sup>+</sup>, Ca<sup>2+</sup>, Mg<sup>2+</sup>, glucose, fructose, and trehalose promoted the activity of the studied compound. The prepared 5′−NT exhibited higher catalytic activity and selectivity against IMP compared with its commercial counterpart, while its catalytic activity against XMP was not significant (<i>p</i> > 0.05). In brief, we established a new methodology for preparing 5′−NT, enhancing our understanding of its enzyme activity and providing a solid basis for regulating the content of umami−enhancing nucleotides in pork through the control of endogenous 5′−NT activity. |
