Abstract

An extracellular phospholipase D (PLD St ) was purified from Streptomyces tendae by two successive chromatographic steps on Sepharose CL-6B and DEAE-Sepharose CL-6B. Molecular weight of the PLD St was estimated to be approximately 43 kDa by sodium dodecyl sulfatepolyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Maximal activity was at pH 8 and 60°C, and the enzyme was stable at or below 60°C and between pH 8 and 10, when assayed after 1.5 and 24 h, respectively. The enzyme activity had an absolute requirement of Ca2+, and the maximum activity was at 2 mM CaCl2. The Km and Vmax values for phosphatidyl choline were 0.95 mM and 810 µmol min−1 mg−1, respectively. More importantly, PLD St could not catalyze transphosphatidylation of glycerol, L-serine, myo-inositol and ethanolamine, which have been extensively used to evaluate the activity. The result strongly suggests that PLD St does not have the transphosphatidylation activity, thereby making it the first Streptomyces PLD possessing only hydrolytic activity. PLD St may therefore be a novel type of PLD enzyme.
