Enzyme Commission Number
EC 1.1.99.32
Product Overview
High-quality enzyme products.
Well-established quality management system.
Reaction
L-sorbose + acceptor = 1-dehydro-L-sorbose + reduced acceptor
Systematic Name
L-sorbose:acceptor 1-oxidoreductase
Function
The product, L-sorbosone, is an intermediate in bacterial 2-keto-L-gulonic-acid formation. The activity of this membrane-bound enzyme is stimulated by Fe(III) or Co2+ but is inhibited by Cu2+. The enzyme is highly specific for L-sorbose as other sugars, such as glucose, mannitol and sorbitol, are not substrates. Phenazine methosulfate and DCIP can act as artificial acceptors.
Other name
SDH (ambiguous)
Production Methods
Fermentation
Package
on customer request
Applications
Research Use
Storage
Should be stored in a dry and cool place, avoiding high temperature.
Appearance / Form
powder or liquid
Odor
Normal microbial fermentation odour.
WARNINGS
Keep sealed after use every time to avoid microbial infections and inactivation of enzymes until its finish.
Description
Microbial enzymes have been used in a large number of fields, such as chemical, agricultural and biopharmaceutical industries. Our enzyme production services are based on bacteria, fungi, and yeast, from strain selection, optimization, and process development to scale-up production.
