Abstract

Glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase (D-glucose 6-phosphate: NADP+ oxidoreductase, EC 1.1.1.49; G6PD) was purified from Lake Van fish (Chalcalburnus tarichii pallas, 1811) liver, using a simple and rapid method, and some characteristics of the enzyme were investigated. The purification procedure was composed of two steps: homogenate preparation and 2′, 5′-ADP Sepharose 4B affinity gel chromatography, which took 7–8 hours. Thanks to the two consecutive procedures, the enzyme, having specific activity of 38 EU/mg protein, was purified with a yield of 44.39% and 1,310 fold. In order to control the enzyme purification SDS polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) was done. SDS polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis showed a single band for enzyme. Optimal pH, stable pH, optimal temperature, Km and, Vmax values for NADP+ and glucose 6- phosphate (G6P) were also determined for the enzyme. In addition, molecular weight and subunit molecular weights were found by sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrilamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) and gel filtration chromatography respectively.

Resumen

Mediante un método simple y rápido, se identifica la enzima glucosa-6-fosfato deshidrogenasa (D-glucosa-6-fosfato: NADP+óxidorreductasa, EC 1.1.1.49, G6PD) a partir de hígado del pezChalcalburnus tarichii y se investigan sus características. El procedimiento de purificación incluye 2 fases, preparación del homogenado y cromatografía en gel de afinidad con 2′, 5′-ADP sefarosa 4B, lo que supone 7–8 horas. Tras los 2 procedimientos consecutivos, se logra purificación de la enzima, de actividad específica 36,26 EU/ mg de proteína, con un 44,48% de rendimiento y un enriquecimiento de 1.215. Para controlar la purificación se realizó SDS-PAGE. Se han determinado los valores de pH óptimo y estable, de la temperatura óptima, de Km y de Vmax para NADP+ y glucosa-6-fosfato. Además, se han estimado los valores del peso molecular de la enzima y del de cada subunidad medianteSDS-PAGE y cromatografía de filtración en gel respectivamente.
