Abstract

ABSTRACT A glucuronan lyase extracted from Sinorhizobium meliloti strain M5N1CS was purified to homogeneity by anion-exchange chromatography. The purified enzyme corresponds to a monomer with a molecular mass of 20 kDa and a pI of 4.9. A specific activity was found only for polyglucuronates leading to the production of 4,5-unsaturated oligoglucuronates. The enzyme activity was optimal at pH 6.5 and 50°C. Zn 2+ , Cu 2+ , and Hg 2+ (1 mM) inhibited the enzyme activity. No homology of the enzyme N-terminal amino acid sequence was found with any of the previously published protein sequences. This enzyme purified from S. meliloti strain M5N1CS corresponding to a new lyase was classified as an endopolyglucuronate lyase.
