| Abstract | The preservation of activity of extracellular enzymes in soil is presently associated with their immobilization on organic or inorganic carriers. Enzyme immobilization results, however, in a significant decrease in enzymatic activity. In the present work, the mechanism responsible for promotion of the catalytic activity was revealed, as well as the favorable effect of low-molecular alkylhydrozybenzenes of the class of alkylresorcinols, which are common in soil organic matter, on stability of immobilized enzymes (exemplified by amylases) by their post-translational modification. Optimal conditions (enzyme to sorbent ratio, pH optimum, CaCl$_{2}$ concentration, and sorption time) for amylase sorption on a biological sorbent (yeast cell walls) were determined and decreased activity of the immobilized enzyme compared to its dissolved state was confirmed. Alkylresorcinols (C$_{7}$AHB) at concentrations of 1.6 to 80 mM were found to cause an increase of amylase activity both in the case of already sorbed enzymes (by 30%) and in the case of a free dissolved enzyme with its subsequent immobilization (by 50–60%). In both cases, the optimal C$_{7}$AHB concentration was 16 mM. Amylase stability was determined for C7AHB-modified and unmodified enzymes immobilized on the biological sorbent after two cycles of freezing (–20°C) and thawing (4°C). Inverse dependence was revealed between increasing stability of C$_{7}$AHB-modified enzymes and an increase in their activity, as well as higher stability of immobilized modified amylases than of the dissolved modified enzyme. Investigation of the effect of C$_{7}$HOB-modification in the preservation of activity in immobilized amylases after four freeze–thaw cycles revealed: (1) better preservation of activity by the modified immobilized enzymes compared to immobilized ones; (2) differences in the dynamics of activity loss within compared pairs, with activity of immobilized amylases decreasing after the second cycle to a lower level (42%) than activity of the modified immobilized enzymes after the fourth cycle (48%). These results demonstrate that in the preservation of activity of extracellular enzymes in soil both stabilization mechanisms are of importance: immobilization on organic carriers and modification of the enzyme conformation by low-molecular compounds with the functions of chemical chaperones. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
