  • 摘要:Butanol vapor feeding to ripe banana pulp slices produced abundant butyl butanoate, indicating that a portion of butanol molecules was converted to butanoate/butanoyl-CoA via butanal, and further biosynthesized to ester. A similar phenomenon was observed when feeding propanol and pentanol, but was less pronounced when feeding hexanol, 2-methylpropanol and 3-methylbutanol. Enzymes which catalyze the cascade reactions, such as alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH), acetyl-CoA synthetase, and alcohol acetyl transferase, have been well documented. Aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH), which is presumed to play a key role in the pathway to convert aldehydes to carboxylic acids, has not been reported yet. The conversion is an oxygen-independent metabolic pathway and is enzyme-catalyzed with nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD +) as the cofactor. Crude ALDH was extracted from ripe banana pulps, and the interference from ADH was removed by two procedures: (1) washing off elutable proteins which contain 95% of ADH, but only about 40% of ALDH activity, with the remaining ALDH extracted from the pellet residues at the crude ALDH extraction stage; (2) adding an ADH inhibitor in the reaction mixture. The optimum pH of the ALDH was 8.8, and optimum phosphate buffer concentration was higher than 100 mM. High affinity of the enzyme was a straight chain of lower aldehydes except ethanal, while poor affinity was branched chain aldehydes.
