Deacetoxycephalosporin-C-Hydrolase.

摘要

Deacetoxycephalosporin C hydroxylase is obtained in purified form from crude cell-free extracts via chromatography over a weak anionic exchange resin, ammonium sulfate fractionation, gel filtration, hydroxylapatite chromatography, and FPLC. The enzyme is obtained in >90% purity by further gel filtration and a second FPLC. The 28-residue amino-terminal sequence of hydroxylase is provided as well as a 9-residue amino-terminal sequence of an internal sequence and a 3-residue carboxy-terminal sequence. In addition to the efficient conversion of DAOC to DAC, the hydroxylase provided herein converts 7 beta -( alpha -aminoadipamido)-3-exomethylenecepham-4-carboxylic acid to DAC.
