| dc.description.abstract | Kinetic and physicochemical properties of Moringa oleifera peroxidase purified using a novel and cost efficient protocol was investigated with a view to providing information on its possible biotechnological potentials. Moringa oleifera peroxidase was purified to homogeneity in two steps, involving ATPS and size exclusion chromatography on Sephadex G-100 with a yield of 84.12 %. In-gel activity staining revealed the presence of one isoform of peroxidase. The purified peroxidase is monomeric with native and subunits molecular weight of 38.9 and 43.5 kDa respectively. Kinetic parameters - Vmax, Km(app) o-dianisidine, Km(app) H2O2 of the purified enzyme were 2.5 units/mg protein, 0.020 ± 0.04 mM and 1.37 ± 0.18 mM respectively. Its optimum pH and temperature were 5 and 30 °C respectively. The purified enzyme cross-linked BSA into an insoluble matrix with the aid of caffeic acid. The study concluded that the purification scheme adopted is rapid and efficient, the purified enzyme exhibited some physiochemical properties that make it suitable for various biotechnological applications. | |
