ABSTRACT
The purification and characterization of PGM (Phosphoglucomutase) from Cordyceps militaris (C. militaris) was investigated. PGM was purified using a combination of ultrafiltration, salting-out and ion exchange chromatography resulting in 4.23-fold enhancement of activity with a recovery of 20.01%. Molecular mass was 50.01 kDa by SDS-PAGE. The optimal activity was achieved at pH 7.5 and 30 °C with NADPH as substrate. The results showed that SDS, DTT Li+, Cu2+, Na+, Mn2+ and Al3+ were effective PGM inhibitors; whereas glycerol, Zn2+, Mg2+, Ca2+, Fe2+ and Fe3+ could enhance the activity of PGM, and the Km and Vmax values were 11.62 mmol/L and 416.67 U/mL, respectively. At the same time, qRT-PCR was used to test the changes of mRNA transcription level of PGM gene encoding under two fermentation conditions basic medium and optimized medium. The relative quantitative results of PGM target genes resulting in 2.60-fold enhancement than the control group.
