Abstract
The fisheries and aquaculture industries are some of the major economic sectors in the world. However, these industries generate significant amounts of wastes that need to be properly managed to avoid serious health and environmental issues. Recent advances in marine waste valorization indicate that fish waste biomass represents an abundant source of high-value biomolecules including enzymes, functional proteins, bioactive peptides, and omega-3 rich oils. Enzyme-assisted processes, for the recovery of these value-added biomolecules, have gained interest over chemical-based processes due to their cost-effectiveness as well as their green and eco-friendly aspects. Currently, the majority of commercially available proteases that are used to recover value-added compounds from fisheries and aquaculture wastes are mesophilic and/or thermophilic that require significant energy input and can lead to unfavorable reactions (i.e., oxidation). Cold-adapted proteases extracted from cold-water fish species, on the other hand, are active at low temperatures but unstable at higher temperatures which makes them interesting from both environmental and economic points of view by upcycling fish waste as well as by offering substantial energy savings. This review provides a general overview of cold-adapted proteolytic enzymes from cold-water fish species and highlights the opportunities they offer in the valorization of fisheries and aquaculture wastes.

Chymotrypsin isolation from jumbo squid ( Dosidicus gigas) hepatopancreas: Partial characterization and effect on muscle collagen. Food Sci Biotechnol 2016; 25:1011-1016. [PMID: 30263367 DOI: 10.1007/s10068-016-0163-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/17/2016] [Revised: 05/24/2016] [Accepted: 05/24/2016] [Indexed: 10/21/2022] Open
Abstract
Chymotrypsin was purified from jumbo squid hepatopancreas (HP) with 2.4-fold and yield 1.9%, and characterized with a molecular weight of 31 kDa, as estimated by sodium dodecyl sulfatepolyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE). Chymotrypsin effect over collagen extracted from the mantle, fins and arms of the jumbo squid was evaluated. The enzyme exhibited the maximum activity at pH 7 and 65°C using Suc-Ala-Ala-Pro-Phe-p-nitroanilide (SAAPNA) as a substrate and it was identified using the specific inhibitors N-tosyl-L-phenylalaninechloromethyl ketone (TPCK) and phenyl methyl sulfonyl fluoride (PMSF), showing residual activities of 6% and 0%, respectively. Furthermore, high activity was observed in the pH range of 4.0 to 8.0. Purified enzyme showed a moderate in vitro activity using muscle collagen as a substrate. Although further research is needed, the results suggest that the enzyme has a potential application where acidic or slightly alkaline conditions are needed.

Abstract
Pterygoplichthys disjunctivus viscera chymotrypsin was purified by fractionation with ammonium sulfate (30-70 % saturation), gel filtration, affinity, and ion exchange chromatography. Chymotrypsin molecular weight was approximately 29 kDa according to sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE), shown a single band in zymogram. Electrofocusing study suggested being an anionic enzyme (pI ≈ 3.9), exhibiting maximal activity at pH 9 and 50 °C, using Suc-Ala-Ala-Pro-Phe-p-nitroanilide (SAAPNA) as substrate. Enzyme was effectively inhibited by phenyl methyl sulfonyl fluoride (PMSF) (99 %), and N-tosyl-L-phenylalanine chloromethyl ketone (TPCK) (94 %). Enzyme activity was affected by the following ions in decreasing order: Hg(2+), Fe(2+), Cu(2+), Li(1+), Mg(2+), K(1+), Mn(2+), while Ca(2+) had no effect. Chymotrypsin activity decreased continuously as NaCl concentration increased (from 0 to 30 %). K m and V max values were 0.72 ± 1.4 mM and 1.15 ± 0.06 μmol/min/mg of protein, respectively (SAAPNA as substrate). Results suggest the enzyme has a potential application where low processing temperatures are needed, such as in fish sauce production.

Abstract
Two chymotrypsins (chymotrypsins A and B) have been purified to homogeneity from the hepatopancreas of Japanese sea bass ( Lateolabrax japonicus ) by ammonium sulfate fractionation and chromatographies on DEAE-Sepharose and Phenyl-Sepharose. Two-dimensional electrophoresis (2-DE) analysis revealed that the molecular masses of chymotrypsins A and B were approximately 27.0 and 27.5 kDa, respectively. Their respective isoelectric points were 8.0 and 7.0. Purified chymotrypsins also revealed a single band on native-PAGE, whereas their mobilities were quite different. Optimum temperature and pH of chymotrypsins A and B were 45 degrees C and 8.0, respectively. Both enzymes were strongly inhibited by chymostatin, phenylmethanesulfonyl fluoride (PMSF), and Pefabloc SC, but slightly inhibited by metalloproteinase inhibitor of 1,10-phenanthroline and EDTA. Using Suc-Leu-Leu-Val-Tyr-MCA as substrate, apparent K(m) values of chymotrypsins A and B were 0.8 and 1.1 microM and k(cat) values were 2.7 and 2.0 s(-1), respectively. The N-terminal amino acid sequences of chymotrypsins A and B were determined to the 21st and 18th residues, respectively, and were identical. These sequences exhibited high identities to chymotrypsins from other animals. The digestive effect of the two chymotrypsins on myofibrillar proteins indicated their effectiveness in the degradation of food proteins.

Abstract
Atlantic cod is a marine fish that lives at low temperatures of 0-10 degrees C and contains a cold-adapted alkaline phosphatase (AP). Preparations of AP from either the lower part of the intestines or the pyloric caeca area were subjected to proteolytic digestion, mass spectrometry and amino acid sequencing by Edman degradation. The primary structure exhibits greatest similarity to human tissue non-specific AP (80%), and approximately 30% similarity to AP from Escherichia coli. The key residues required for catalysis are conserved in the cod AP, except for the third metal binding site, where cod AP has the same variable residues as mammalian APs (His153 and His328 by E. coli AP numbering). General comparison of the amino acid composition with mammalian APs showed that cod AP contains fewer Cys, Leu, Met and Ser, but proportionally more Asn, Asp, Ile, Lys, Trp and Tyr residues. Three N-linked glycosylation sites were found. The glycan structure was determined as complex biantennary in type with fucose and sialic acid attached, although a trace of complex tri-antennary structure was also observed. A three-dimensional model was obtained by homology modelling using the human placental AP scaffold. Cod AP has fewer charged and hydrophobic residues, but more polar residues at the intersubunit surface. The N-terminal helix arm that embraces the second subunit in dimeric APs may be more flexible due to a replaced Pro at its base. One disulfide bridge was found instead of the two present in most other APs. This may invoke greater movement in the structure that together with weaker subunit contacts leads to improved catalytic efficiency.

Abstract
The number of reports on enzymes from cold adapted organisms has increased significantly over the past years, and reveals that adaptive strategies for functioning at low temperature varies among enzymes. However, the high catalytic efficiency at low temperature seems, for the majority of cold active enzymes, to be accompanied by a reduced thermal stability. Increased molecular flexibility to compensate for the low working temperature, is therefore still the most dominating theory for cold adaptation, although there also seem to be other adaptive strategies. The number of experimentally determined 3D structures of enzymes possessing cold adaptation features is still limited, and restricts a structural rationalization for cold activity. The present summary of structural characteristics, based on comparative studies on crystal structures (7), homology models (7), and amino acid sequences (24), reveals that there are no common structural feature that can account for the low stability, increased catalytic efficiency, and proposed molecular flexibility. Analysis of structural features that are thought to be important for stability (e.g. intra-molecular hydrogen bonds and ion-pairs, proline-, methionine-, glycine-, or arginine content, surface hydrophilicity, helix stability, core packing), indicates that each cold adapted enzyme or enzyme system use different small selections of structural adjustments for gaining increased molecular flexibility that in turn give rise to increased catalytic efficiency and reduced stability. Nevertheless, there seem to be a clear correlation between cold adaptation and reduced number of interactions between structural domains or subunits. Cold active enzymes also seem, to a large extent, to increase their catalytic activity by optimizing the electrostatics at and around the active site.

Abstract
The cDNA encoding Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua) chymotrypsinogen B has been isolated and sequenced. Its deduced amino acid sequence consists of a 16-residue signal sequence and a mature polypeptide of 247 residues, being two residues longer than its vertebrate analogs. This mature polypeptide corresponds to a calculated molecular mass of 26.5 kDa and shares 70% sequence identity with cod chymotrypsinogen A. However, the identity between cod chymotrypsinogen B and its other vertebrate analogues is 63-66%. In common with most fish serine proteases, cod chymotrypsinogen B contains a high number of methionine residues. The presence of a threonine instead of a highly conserved serine residue at position 189 is a novel characteristic of this enzyme. Cod chymotrypsin B, as its type B vertebrate analogs, has an alanine at position 226, whereas a glycine is most commonly found at this position in the type A chymotrypsins.

Abstract
A molecular model of Antarctic krill euphauserase based on the known crystal structure of its fiddler crab analog, collagenase I, indicates that the core structure of these enzymes is almost identical. Euphauserase is a cold-active and thermally sensitive enzyme with a high affinity for Lys, Arg and large hydrophobic amino acids. Residue Phe137 in euphauserase, localized in loop D (autolysis loop), is highly exposed on the surface of the molecule. Therefore, it appeared to be an easy target for autolysis. The broadly specific euphauserase has a low affinity for negatively charged residues. In order to increase the stability of the enzyme, two mutants were created in which residue Phe137 was replaced by a Glu and an Asp residue. Both mutations resulted in increased stability of the recombinant euphauserase towards thermal inactivation.

Abstract
Psychrophilic organisms have successfully adapted to various low-temperature environments such as cold ocean waters. Catalysts with increased catalytic efficiencies are produced, generally at the expense of thermal stability due to fewer non-covalent stabilizing interactions. A marine bacterial strain producing a particularly heat-labile alkaline phosphatase was selected from a total of 232 strains isolated from North-Atlantic coastal waters. From partial 16S rRNA sequences the strain was characterized as a Vibrio sp. An alkaline phosphatase was purified 151-fold with 54% yield from the culture medium using a single step affinity chromatography procedure on agarose-linked L-histidyldiazobenzylphosphonic acid. The active enzyme was a 55 +/- 6 kDa monomer. The enzyme had optimal activity at pH 10 and was strikingly heat-labile with a half-life of 6 min at 40 degrees C and 30 min at 32 degrees C. This enzyme from Vibrio sp. had a higher turnover number (k(cat)) and higher apparent Michaelis-Menten factor (K(m)) than the enzyme from Escherichia coli, a clear-indication of cold-adaptation. Inorganic phosphate was a competitive inhibitor with a relatively high K(i) value of 1.7 mM. Low affinity for phosphate may contribute to higher turnover rates due to more facile release of product.

Abstract
Structural rationalizations for differences in catalytic efficiency and stability between mesophilic and cold-adapted trypsins have been suggested from a detailed comparison of eight trypsin structures. Two trypsins, from Antarctic fish and Atlantic cod, have been constructed by homology modeling techniques and compared with six existing X-ray structures of both cold-adapted and mesophilic trypsins. The structural analysis focuses on the cold trypsin residue determinants found in a more extensive comparison of 27 trypsin sequences, and reveals a number of structural features unique to the cold-adapted trypsins. The increased substrate affinity of the psychrophilic trypsins is probably achieved by a lower electrostatic potential of the S1 binding pocket particularly arising from Glu221B, and from the lack of five hydrogen bonds adjacent to the catalytic triad. The reduced stability of the cold trypsins is expected to arise from reduced packing in two distinct core regions, fewer interdomain hydrogen bonds and from a destabilized C-terminal alpha-helix. The helices of the cold trypsins lack four hydrogen bonds and two salt-bridges, and they have poorer van der Waals packing interactions to the body of the molecule, compared to the mesophilic counterparts.
