DEPARTEMEN BIOLOGI FSM UNDIP SOURCES OF ENZYMES Biologically active enzymes may be extracted from any living organism: Of the hundred enzymes being used industrially, - over a half are from fungi - over a third are from bacteria with the remainder divided between animal (8%) and plant (4%) sources . SOURCES ENZYMES Microbes are preferred to plants and animals as sources of enzymes because:
- They are generally cheaper to produce.
- Their enzyme contents are more predictable
and controllable.
- Plant and animal tissues contain more
potentially harmful materials than microbes, including phenolic compounds (from plants). Fungal Enzymes Enzyme EC Sources Application

Cristian Hanse (Denmark) : rennet from
cow. Takamine (Jepang) : amilase from Aspergillus oryzae with rice as a substrate. Takadiastase, the first enzyme production in industrial scale. Boidin and Effront : amilase high temperature resisten from Baccilus subtilis. Growing Enzymes
(1) Cultivate the organisms producing the
desired enzymes. Production can be regulated Fermentation conditions can be optimized for overproduction. Growing Enzymes (2) Cell separated from the media usually by filtration or something by centrifugation. Depending on intra/extracellular nature of the enzyme, the cell or fermentation broth is further processed. Recovery of intracellular enzymes is more complicated and involves the disruption of cells and removal of debris and nucleic acids. Increasing permeability of cell membrane (CaCl2 (salt) or dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) or change in pH Last resort is cell disruption. Enzyme Production o Cell Culturing optimum condition o Fermentation aerobic, in stirred- tank reactor o Enzyme purification o Extracellular enzyme separate cells o Intracellular enzyme break cell o Concentrate o Chromatography o Crystallization o Enzyme product: as concentrate, powder or formulations (mixed xylanase-pectinase for animal feeds Enzyme Production EKSTRAKSI ENZYME ENZYME DEVELOPMENT Strain improvement Genetic manipulation and classical selection o Chemical /physical mutagenesis Recombinant DNA technology Optimization of cell culturing condition Enzyme improvement Chemical modification to change conformation Protein engineering: change specific amino acid by site-directed mutagenesis Change the catalytic condition Organic solvent Metal ion Industrial applications of enzymes Laundry detergents-addition of lipase, protease, and amylase to detergents allowed the use of lower temperatures, and the better removal of specific stains. There has been continual development of enzyme detergents with increased activity at low and high temperatures and at alkaline pH values. Textile industry has used alkaline proteases for degumming silk, removing a protein from the outside of the silk fibres (Gupta et al., 2002). Pectinases used to remove cell-wall components from cotton fibres and glucose oxidase used to bleach the fibres. Cellulases have been used to treat denim garments as an alternative to stonewashing in a process known as biostoning (Belghith et al., 2001). Leather Replacement of the chemical processes by enzymes should have considerable advantages. Proteases have been used to de-hair hides and lipase to remove fat. Paper Cellulases have been used to assist pulping, and to de-ink paper. Laccase enzymes that attack lignin have been used to bleach pulp as an alternative to chlorine bleach (Kirk et al., 2002). Industrial applications of enzymes Enzymes from Extremophiles (Eichler, 2001; Haki and Rakshit, 2003; Huber and Stetter, 1998). Extremophiles The microorganisms found in extreme conditions of temperature, salt, and pressure belong to the domains of Bacteria and Archaea, but the majority- are the Archaea. Clearly these types of micro-organism will contain enzymes that can function under extreme conditions. e.g Thermus aquaticus (Taq polymerase enzyme for PCR) Enzymes and Sources Proteases Overproducing strains of Bacillus, Aspergillus, Rhizopus, and Mucor. Pectinases Aspergillus niger. Lactases Yeast and Aspergillus. Lipases Certain strains of yeast and fungi. Glucose isomerase Flavobecterium arborescens or Bacillus coagulans
