Tailoring the specificity of ficin versus large hemoglobin and small casein by co-immobilizing inert proteins on the immobilized enzyme layer and further modification with aldehyde dextran. Int J Biol Macromol 2024:134487. [PMID: 39102910 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.134487] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/30/2024] [Revised: 07/31/2024] [Accepted: 08/02/2024] [Indexed: 08/07/2024]
Abstract
Ficin has been immobilized at full loading on glyoxyl agarose beads. Then, ficin was blocked with 2,2'-dipyridyldisulfide. To be effective, the modification must be performed in the presence of 0.5 M urea, as the enzyme was not inhibited under standard conditions, very likely because the catalytic Cys was not fully exposed to the medium. Activity could be fully recovered by incubation with 1 M mercaptoethanol. This biocatalyst could hydrolyze hemoglobin and casein. The objective of this paper was to increase the enzyme specificity versus small proteins by generating steric hindrances to the access of large proteins. The step by step blocking via ionic exchange of the biocatalyst with aminated bovine serum albumin (BSA), aldehyde dextran and a second layer of aminated BSA produced a biocatalyst that maintained its activity versus small synthetic substrates, increased the biocatalyst stability, while reduced its activity to over 50 % versus casein. Interestingly, this treatment almost fully annulled the activity versus hemoglobin, more effectively at 37 °C than at 55 °C. The biocatalyst could be reused 5 times without changes in activity. The changes could be caused by steric hindrances, but it cannot be discarded some changes in enzyme sequence specificity caused by the modifications.

Proteases immobilized on nanomaterials for biocatalytic, environmental and biomedical applications: Advantages and drawbacks. Biotechnol Adv 2024; 70:108304.

Abstract
Proteases have gained significant scientific and industrial interest due to their unique biocatalytic characteristics and broad-spectrum applications in different industries. The development of robust nanobiocatalytic systems by attaching proteases onto various nanostructured materials as fascinating and novel nanocarriers has demonstrated exceptional biocatalytic performance, substantial stability, and ease of recyclability over multiple reaction cycles under different chemical and physical conditions. Proteases immobilized on nanocarriers may be much more resistant to denaturation caused by extreme temperatures or pH values, detergents, organic solvents, and other protein denaturants than free enzymes. Immobilized proteases may present a lower inhibition. The use of non-porous materials in the immobilization prevents diffusion and steric hindrances during the binding of the substrate to the active sites of enzymes compared to immobilization onto porous materials; when using very large or solid substrates, orientation of the enzyme must always be adequate. The advantages and problems of the immobilization of proteases on nanoparticles are discussed in this review. The continuous and batch reactor operations of nanocarrier-immobilized proteases have been successfully investigated for a variety of applications in the leather, detergent, biomedical, food, and pharmaceutical industries. Information about immobilized proteases on various nanocarriers and nanomaterials has been systematically compiled here. Furthermore, different industrial applications of immobilized proteases have also been highlighted in this review.

Comparative Analysis of the Immune Response and the Clinical Allergic Reaction to Papain-like Cysteine Proteases from Fig, Kiwifruit, Papaya, Pineapple and Mites in an Italian Population. Foods 2023; 12:2852. [PMID: 37569122 PMCID: PMC10417190 DOI: 10.3390/foods12152852] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/20/2023] [Revised: 07/09/2023] [Accepted: 07/25/2023] [Indexed: 08/13/2023] Open
Abstract
Several plant papain-like cysteine proteases are exploited by the food, cosmetic, pharmaceutical and textile industries. However, some of these enzymes can cause allergic reactions. In this context, we investigated the frequency of sensitization and allergic reactions to some fruit and/or latex cysteine proteases, which are used as additives by the food industry to improve and modify the quality of their products. The FABER test was used to analyse the patients' sensitization towards five plants and, for comparison, two homologous mite cysteine proteases. In an Italian population of 341 allergic patients, 133 (39%) had IgE specific for at least one of the seven cysteine proteases under investigation. Most of the patients were IgE positive for Der p 1 and/or Der f 1 (96.38%) reported a clinical history suggestive of respiratory allergy to mites, whereas none of the subjects sensitized to the homologs from papaya, pineapple and fig reported allergy symptoms following ingestion of these foods. Only one patient referred symptoms from ingesting kiwifruit. Therefore, the obtained results showed that sensitization to the fruit enzymes was only rarely concomitant with allergic reactions. These observations, together with the literature reports, suggest that the allergy to plant papain-like cysteine proteases might mainly be an occupational disease.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The achenes/seeds of endemic jelly fig (Ficus pumila var. awkeotsang) fruit have been applied to prepare a traditional beverage in Taiwan. Upon fruit harvest, jelly fig latex exuded from stalks was discarded. Protease activity was monitored in its latex. Proteases capable of hydrolyzing proteins have many application aspects based on diverse characteristics. Commercial plant proteases are frequently from latex. RESULTS The latex protease of jelly fig, termed FaFicin, was purified to homogeneity with a molecular mass of ~32 kDa on sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. According to liquid chromatographic-tandem mass spectrometric analyses, the expected protein band of protease was matched to ficin A, ficin B or chymopapain from common fig or papaya. Iodoacetamide, an inhibitor of cysteine protease, inhibited its protease activity completely. Hence FaFicin was identified as a papain-like cysteine protease (PLCP), exhibiting more than 80% and 70% activity as assayed at pH 5-8 and 40-70 °C, respectively. It maintained ~89% of initial activity after 120 min at 55 °C and pH 7. Moreover, FaFicin could degrade the myosin and actin of meat, and clot milk. CONCLUSION The ficin FaFicin was obtained, purified and identified as a PLCP member from agricultural waste: jelly fig latex. It possessed activity under a wide range of pH values and temperature, and exhibited excellent thermostability. Based on its initial evaluation as a meat tenderizer and milk clotting reagent, the application of FaFicin was possible, which may extend utilization of jelly fig. © 2022 Society of Chemical Industry.

Int J Biol Macromol 2022; 220:1155-1162.

Abstract
The immobilization of ficin (a cysteinyl proteases) on vinyl sulfone agarose produced its almost full inactivation. It was observed that the incubation of the free and immobilized enzyme in β-mercaptoethanol produced a 20 % of enzyme activity recovery, suggesting that the inactivation due to the immobilization could be a consequence of the modification of the catalytic Cys. To prevent the enzyme inactivation during the immobilization, switching off of ficin via Cys reaction with dipyridyl-disulfide was implemented, giving a reversible disulfide bond that produced a fully inactive enzyme. The switch on of ficin activity was implemented by incubation in 1 M β-mercaptoethanol. Using this strategy to immobilize the enzyme on vinyl sulfone agarose beads, the expressed activity of the immobilized ficin could be boosted up to 80 %. The immobilized enzyme presented a thermal stabilization similar to that obtained using ficin-glyoxyl-agarose beads. This procedure may be extended to many enzymes containing critical Cys, to permit their immobilization or chemical modification.

Abstract
This research aimed to invent a new method for cheese making using Rennin-like enzyme from fungus with high efficiency and reusability. Accordingly, Rhizomucor miehei (CBS: 370.65) showed a promising milk clotting (MCF) activity and the mycotoxin test was negative. The partially purified enzyme was immobilized by entrapment in paraffin wax using different techniques. Wax-enzyme tablets preparation exhibited complete immobilization yield (100%). Ca2+ had a marked stimulating effect on the activities of both the free and immobilized enzyme forms. The immobilized enzyme (MCI) exhibited more than sixteen effective reuses to produce cheese in a batch reactor. The free and the immobilized forms recorded their optimum activities at pH 5.6 and 55 °C, respectively. The immobilization process reduced the consumed activation energy (Ea) to 39%. The immobilized enzyme was more stable than the free form. Among all the used substrates, buffalo milk and full cream milk showed the highest immobilized enzyme activity (7142.9 U). km value was unaffected by the immobilization process and was 600 mg reaction-1, for both. Schematic setup was used as semi-pilot example for a repeated batch of MCI wax tablets. This design solved the clotting problem completely by the refine bundle nominated its agreeability in the cheese-making process.

Abstract
The use of enzymes in industrial processes requires the improvement of their features in many instances. Enzyme immobilization, a requirement to facilitate the recovery and reuse of these water-soluble catalysts, is one of the tools that researchers may utilize to improve many of their properties. This review is focused on how enzyme immobilization may improve enzyme stability. Starting from the stabilization effects that an enzyme may experience by the mere fact of being inside a solid particle, we detail other possibilities to stabilize enzymes: generation of favorable enzyme environments, prevention of enzyme subunit dissociation in multimeric enzymes, generation of more stable enzyme conformations, or enzyme rigidification via multipoint covalent attachment. In this last point, we will discuss the features of an "ideal" immobilization protocol to maximize the intensity of the enzyme-support interactions. The most interesting active groups in the support (glutaraldehyde, epoxide, glyoxyl and vinyl sulfone) will be also presented, discussing their main properties and uses. Some instances in which the number of enzyme-support bonds is not directly related to a higher stabilization will be also presented. Finally, the possibility of coupling site-directed mutagenesis or chemical modification to get a more intense multipoint covalent immobilization will be discussed.

Abstract
Using proteolytic enzymes extracted from plant materials is a promising way to ensure the sustainability of the food industry. This is particularly true for the dairy industry, especially in cheesemaking and the production of different milk protein hydrolysates for special food applications, particularly nutrition for infants, older adults, and people with food allergies. Ficin, a cysteyl protease isolated from the latex of the fig tree (Ficus carica), is characterized by strong enzymatic activity and can be used for milk clotting and protein hydrolysis for application in different foods. In particular, it can be used for milk protein hydrolysis to produce ingredients with reduced or eliminated allergenicity and improved bioavailability. Ficin can also be used as an active and effective replacement for calf rennet in cheesemaking, such as in traditional Cacioricotta and Teleme cheeses. It can also be used to produce protein hydrolysates with low or no allergenicity for application in infant formula and geriatric nutrition. This work provides an overview of ficin, a plant-derived protease, with an emphasis on its potential application in the production of some traditional cheeses and milk protein hydrolysates for special food applications.

Abstract
Papain is a cysteine protease from papaya, with many applications due to its broad specificity. This paper reviews for first time the immobilization of papain on different supports (organic, inorganic or hybrid supports) presenting some of the features of the utilized immobilization strategies (e.g., epoxide, glutaraldehyde, genipin, glyoxyl for covalent immobilization). Special focus is placed on the preparation of magnetic biocatalysts, which will permit the simple recovery of the biocatalyst even if the medium is a suspension. Problems specific to the immobilization of proteases (e.g., steric problems when hydrolyzing large proteins) are also defined. The benefits of a proper immobilization (enzyme stabilization, widening of the operation window) are discussed, together with some artifacts that may suggest an enzyme stabilization that may be unrelated to enzyme rigidification.

Abstract
Tris is an extensively used buffer that presents a primary amine group on its structure. In the present work trypsin, chymotrypsin and penicillin G acylase (PGA) were immobilized/stabilized on glyoxyl agarose in presence of different concentrations of Tris (from 0 to 20 mM). The effects of the presence of Tris during immobilization were studied analyzing the thermal stability of the obtained immobilized biocatalysts. The results indicate a reduction of the enzyme stability when immobilized in the presence of Tris. This effect can be observed in inactivations carried out at pH 5, 7, and 9 with all the enzymes assayed. The reduction of enzyme stability increased with the Tris concentration. Another interesting result is that the stability reduction was more noticeable for immobilized PGA than in the other immobilized enzymes, the biocatalysts prepared in presence of 20 mM Tris lost totally the activity at pH 7 just after 1 h of inactivation, while the reference at this time still kept around 61 % of the residual activity. These differences are most likely due to the homogeneous distribution of the Lys groups in PGA compared to trypsin and chymotrypsin (where almost 50% of Lys group are in a small percentage of the protein surface). The results suggest that Tris could be affecting the multipoint covalent immobilization in two different ways, on one hand, reducing the number of available glyoxyl groups of the support during immobilization, and on the other hand, generating some steric hindrances that difficult the formation of covalent bonds.

Abstract
Chitosan is one of the most abundant natural polymer worldwide, and due to its inherent characteristics, its use in industrial processes has been extensively explored. Because it is biodegradable, biocompatible, non-toxic, hydrophilic, cheap, and has good physical-chemical stability, it is seen as an excellent alternative for the replacement of synthetic materials in the search for more sustainable production methodologies. Thus being, a possible biotechnological application of Chitosan is as a direct support for enzyme immobilization. However, its applicability is quite specific, and to overcome this issue, alternative pretreatments are required, such as chemical and physical modifications to its structure, enabling its use in a wider array of applications. This review aims to present the topic in detail, by exploring and discussing methods of employment of Chitosan in enzymatic immobilization processes with various enzymes, presenting its advantages and disadvantages, as well as listing possible chemical modifications and combinations with other compounds for formulating an ideal support for this purpose. First, we will present Chitosan emphasizing its characteristics that allow its use as enzyme support. Furthermore, we will discuss possible physicochemical modifications that can be made to Chitosan, mentioning the improvements obtained in each process. These discussions will enable a comprehensive comparison between, and an informed choice of, the best technologies concerning enzyme immobilization and the application conditions of the biocatalyst.

Abstract
Bromelain, papain, and ficin are studied the most for meat tenderization, but have limited application due to their short lifetime. The aim of this work is to identify the adsorption mechanisms of these cysteine proteases on chitosan to improve the enzymes' stability. It is known that immobilization can lead to a significant loss of enzyme activity, which we observed during the sorption of bromelain (protease activity compared to soluble enzyme is 49% for medium and 64% for high molecular weight chitosan), papain (34 and 28% respectively) and ficin (69 and 70% respectively). Immobilization on the chitosan matrix leads to a partial destruction of protein helical structure (from 5 to 19%). Using computer modelling, we have shown that the sorption of cysteine proteases on chitosan is carried out by molecule regions located on the border of domains L and R, including active cites of the enzymes, which explains the decrease in their catalytic activity upon immobilization. The immobilization on chitosan does not shift the optimal range of pH (7.5) and temperature values (60 °C for bromelain and papain, 37-60 °C for ficin), but significantly increases the stability of biocatalysts (from 5.8 times for bromelain to 7.6 times for papain).

Abstract
Trypsin, chymotrypsin, penicillin G acylase and ficin extract have been stabilized by immobilization on glyoxyl agarose, adding different aliphatic compounds bearing a primary amine group during the immobilization: ethyl amine, butyl amine, hexyl amine (at concentrations ranging from 0 to 20 mM) and octyl amine (from 0 to 10 mM) to analyze their effects on the immobilized enzyme stability. As expected, the presence of amines reduced the intensity of the enzyme-support multipoint covalent attachment, and therefore the enzyme stability. However, it is clear that this effect is higher using octyl amine for all enzymes (in some cases the enzyme immobilized in the presence of 10 mM octyl amine was almost inactivated while the reference kept over 50 % of the initial activity). This way, it seems that the most important effect of the presence of aminated compounds came from the generation of steric hindrances to the enzyme/support multi-reaction promoted by the ammines that are interacting with the aldehyde groups. In some instances, just 1 mM of aminated compounds is enough to greatly decrease enzyme stability. The results suggested that, if the composition of the enzyme extract is unknown, to eliminate small aminated compounds may be necessary to maximize the enzyme-support reaction.

Abstract
This review aims to cover the uses of the commercially available protease Alcalase in the production of biologically active peptides since 2010. Immobilization of Alcalase has also been reviewed, as immobilization of the enzyme may improve the final reaction design enabling the use of more drastic conditions and the reuse of the biocatalyst. That way, this review presents the production, via Alcalase hydrolysis of different proteins, of peptides with antioxidant, angiotensin I-converting enzyme inhibitory, metal binding, antidiabetic, anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial activities (among other bioactivities) and peptides that improve the functional, sensory and nutritional properties of foods. Alcalase has proved to be among the most efficient proteases for this goal, using different protein sources, being especially interesting the use of the protein residues from food industry as feedstock, as this also solves nature pollution problems. Very interestingly, the bioactivities of the protein hydrolysates further improved when Alcalase is used in a combined way with other proteases both in a sequential way or in a simultaneous hydrolysis (something that could be related to the concept of combi-enzymes), as the combination of proteases with different selectivities and specificities enable the production of a larger amount of peptides and of a smaller size.

Glyoxyl-Activated Agarose as Support for Covalently Link Novo-Pro D: Biocatalysts Performance in the Hydrolysis of Casein. Catalysts 2020.

Abstract
This study aimed to evaluate the performance of a commercial protease (Novo-Pro D (NPD)), both in soluble and immobilized forms, in the hydrolysis of proteins (using casein as model protein). Immobilization of the protease NPD on 6% agarose activated with glyoxyl groups for 24 h at 20 °C and pH 10.0 allowed preparing immobilized biocatalyst with around 90% immobilization yield, 92% recovered activity versus small substrate, and a thermal stability 5.3-fold higher than the dialyzed soluble enzyme at 50 °C and pH 8.0. Immobilization times longer than 24 h lead to a decrease in the recovered activity and did not improve the biocatalyst stability. At 50 °C and pH 6.5, the immobilized NPD was around 20-fold more stable than the dialyzed soluble protease. Versus casein, the immobilized NDP presented a 10% level of activity, but it allowed hydrolyzing casein (26 g/L) at 50 °C and pH 6.5 up to a 40% degree of hydrolysis (DH) after 2 h reaction, while under the same conditions, only a 34% DH was achieved with soluble NPD. In addition, the immobilized NPD showed good reusability, maintaining the DH of casein for at least ten 2h-reaction batches.
