    Notes: Summary Thielavia terrestris NRRL 8126 cell free supernatants contained mannanase and β-mannosidase when cultured on a complex media containing locust bean gum. Using acetone precipitation, SP-Sephadex C50 ion exchange chromatography and preparative gel electrophoresis, the crude enzyme was resolved into one β-d-mannosidase and four β-d-mannanase components. β-d-mannosidase had a specific activity of 0.02 (U/mg) onp-nitrophenyl-β-d-mannopyranoside substrate. Mannanase components M1, M2, M3 and M4 had specific activities of 28.2, 38.7, 52.8 and 4.17 (U/mg) respectively on purified locust bean galactomannan substrate. pH optima for the enzymes were in the range 4.5–5.5. Mannanase component M4 manifested the greatest thermostability, retaining full activity for 3 h at 60°C. Molecular weights determined by SDS-PAGE were 72 000 for β-mannosidase and 52 000, 30 000, 55 000 and 89 000 for M1, M2, M3 and M4 respectively. Carbohydrate contents of the enzymes ranged from 6–36%. Preliminary studies indicate that enzyme components hydrolyse the mannan substrate in a synergistic manner.

    Notes: Summary When threeThraustochytrium stains were cultivated in liquid media containing 2.5% starch and 0.2% yeast extract, initial pH 6.0, with shaking under fluorescent light for five days at 25°C, similar biomass yields were observed (9.7–10.3 g L−1). Contents of docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) in biomass varied: 0.15, 3.55 and 6.40% w/w forT. striatum ATCC 24473,T. aureum ATCC 34304 andT. roseum ATCC 28210, respectively. In further studies,T. roseum produced a maximum titer of 0.85 g of DHA per liter of culture broth. The DHA content of total lipids ranged from 46–49% w/w.

    Notes: The progress of reductive biotransformations of a variety of earbonyl compounds by whole cells of baker's yeast was monitored with time. Biotransformations rates ranged from 0.11 to 112.12 mg product formed per g dry yeast per h. While rapid biotransformations of citronellal and ethyl benzoylformate were observed, complete conversion of substrate to product did not occur. Reductive conversions of ethyl- and methyl-acetoacetate went to completion in 6 and 12 h respectively. Ethyl mandelate was produced stereoselectively, favoring the (R)- stereoisomer and ethyl and methyl-3-hydroxybutyrate were produced with (S)-enantiospecificity. Yeast crude extract and resuspended presence of NAD(P)H. Ethyl benzoylformate and methyl-and ethyl-acetoacetate were preferentially reduced by yeast crude extract as compared to resuspended pellet and, in the case of the former two substrates, the reaction manifested a preference for NADPH over NADH.

    Notes: The role of oxidoreductases in reduction of carbonyl compounds was investigated by application of zymogram techniques. Eight bands were observed using ethanol with nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) as coenzyme. Bands observed with lactic acid and (R)-(-)-phenyl-1,2-ethanediol with nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADP) had similar Rm values. 2-Hydroxyvalerate and malate manifested bands having similar Rm values and were active with both NAD and NADP. Based on their structural similarity and identical Rm values, oxidation of 1,4-cyclooctanediol (band #2) and cis-1,5-cyclooctanediol may be due to a common enzyme. The PAGE-zymogram technique may be used on a preparative scale to facilitate purification and full characterization on the observed stained bands.

    Notes: Whole cells of Saccharomyces cerevisiae analyzed the conversion of benzaldehyde to benzyl alcohol in aqueous-organic biphasic media. Reaction rate increased dramatically as moisture content of the solvent was increased in the range 0% to 2%. The highest biotransformation rates were observed when hexane was used as organic solvent. Benzaldehyde was also converted to benzyl alcohol by a cell-free crude extract in biphasic systems containing hexane, although the rate of product formation was much lower. Mutant strains of S. cerevisiae lacking some or all of the ADH isoenzymes, ADH I, II, and III, manifested similar rates for bioconversion of benzaldehyde to benzyl alcohol in both aqueous and two-phase systems. In general, conversion rates observed in aqueous media were 2 to 3 times higher than those observed in hexane containing 2% moisture.

    Notes: Benzoylformate (100 mM) was quantitatively converted to the acyloin compound, 2-hydroxypropiophenone (61.76 mM) and benzaldehyde (38.2 mM) by an enzyme extract from Pseudomonas putida ATCC 12633 in the presence of 1.6M acetaldehyde. Biotransformations were carried out at pH 6.0 and 30°C with an incubation time of 60 min. Activity of the acyloin forming enzyme, benzoylformate decarboxylase, was 1.23 units/mL in the biotransformation mixture. Acyloin formation increased dramatically with pH in the range 4-5 and had a broad activity plateau in the pH range 5-8. A broad temperature optimum for acyloin formation was also observed in the range 20-40°C.

    Notes: The capacities of yeast wild-type and mutants strains known to lack specific ADH isoenzymes to produce L-phenylacetyl carbinol (PAC) and benzyl alcohol in biotransformation trials were also investigated. Pyruvate decarboxylase activity, responsible for PAC formation and ADH activity, which can participate in reduction of benzaldehyde to benzyl alcohol, was also determined in each strain. In addition, the capacity of each strain to produce ethanol was investigated. Mutant strains lacking all of the isoenzymes, ADH-I, ADH-II, and ADH-III, still exhibited some ADH activity and were capable of production of benzyl alcohol and ethanol.

    Notes: A commercial lipase preparation from Rhizopus niveus was used to concentrate the omega-3 fatty acid, docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) component in fish oil. The DHA content of cod-liver oil was 9.64% (w/w) of total fatty acids. Enzymatic digestion conditions were established which produced a DHA content in the monoglycerides fraction of 29.17% (w/w) of total fatty acid, triglyceride, and diglyceride components were 5.72, 9.95, and 15316%, respectively.
