General description

Nitrilase belongs to the C-N hydrolase superfamily.[1] It possesses the catalytic triad motifs: glutamate, lysine, and cysteine and are distributed in fungi, plants, and animals.[2]The isoelectric point (pI) of this protein is 8.1. Native polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE).

Application

Nitrilase may be used for immobilization on acryloyl crosslinked cellulose dialdehyde (ACCD) for catalytic activity studies.[3]

Biochem/physiol Actions

Nitrilases catalyze the liberation of ammonia and the formation of carboxylic acid from the nitriles.[4] The oligomeric structural organization of nitrilase is crucial for its functionality.[1] It displays broad substrate specificity.[1]

Packaging

Bottomless glass bottle. Contents are inside inserted fused cone.

Other Notes

1 U corresponds to the amount of enzyme which liberates 1 μmol ammonia per minute at pH 7.2 and 25°C with the conversion of acrylonitrile to acrylic acid

In this study, several nitrilase genes from phylogenetically distinct organisms were expressed and purified in E. coli in order to study their ability to mediate the biotransformation of nitriles. We identified three nitrilases: Acidovorax facilis nitrilase (AcN); Alcaligenes fecalis nitrilase

The characteristics of the new nitrilase-producing strain Rhodobacter sphaeroides LHS-305 were investigated. By investigating several parameters influencing nitrilase production, the specific cell activity was ultimately increased from 24.5 to 75.0 μmol g(-1) min(-1), and hereinto, the choice of inducer proved

Formamidases (EC 3.5.1.49) are poorly characterized proteins. In spite of this scarce knowledge, ammonia has been described as playing a central role in the pathogenesis of human pathogens such as Helicobacter pylori, for which formamidase has been shown to participate

Questions

1–3 of 3 Questions  
  1. what is the bacteria or organism whose genome sequence have been expressed in E.Coli for nitrilase procurement? I need the name of the organism for research purpose

    1 answer
    1. This enzyme is a recombinant protein produced in e. coli. The biological source and sequence of the protein is considered proprietary and may not be shared.

      Helpful?

  2. Can we get the source of the bacteria or organism whose genome sequence is being used for recombinant expressing in E.Coli for procuring nitrilase. Used for research purspose by a student

    1 answer
    1. Unfortunately, the source and sequence is considered proprietary.

      Helpful?

  3. Is the nitrilase been synthesized through DNA recombinant technology or is there any other source organism from which the nitrilase has been procured?

    1 answer
    1. Yes, this product is a recombinant protein expressed in E. coli.
