摘要: A tabtoxin-hydrolysing enzyme was partially purified from the periplasm of several strains Pseudomonas syringae pv. tabaci . It is an aminopeptidase with a broad pH optimum. The obtained by osmotic shock and then ammonium sulphate precipitation; it became unstable further purificiation (Bio-Gel, DEAE-Sephadex Phenyl-Sepharose chromatography). Its activity sensitive to EDTA but not n -ethylmaleimide or phenylmethyl-sulphonyl fluoride. Although, tabtoxin hydrolysis absolutely requires zinc for in vivo , other divalent cations are effective restoring EDTA-treated preparation. Bacterial which could be activated hydrolyse did have zinc-activatable peptidase their periplasm. This appears responsible conversion bacterium biologically active form, tabtoxinine- β -lactam. may also function as part mechanism self-protection against
