What is Optimized extraction by cetyl trimethyl ammonium bromide reversed micelles of xylose reductase and xylitol dehydrogenase from Candida guilliermondii homogenate about?

The intracellular enzymes xylose reductase (XR, EC 1.1.1.21) and xylitol dehydrogenase (XD, EC 1.1.1.9) from Candida guilliermondii, grown in sugar cane bagasse hydrolysate, were separated by reversed micelles of cetyl trimethyl ammonium bromide (CTAB) cationic surfactant. An experimental design was employed to optimize the extraction conditions of both enzymes. Under these conditions (temperature = 5 degree C, hexanol: isooctane proportion = 5% (v/v), 22 %, surfactant concentration = 0.15M, pH = 7.0 and electrical conductivity = 14 mScm(-1)) recovery values of about 100 and 80% were achieved for the enzymes XR and XD, respectively. The purity of XR and XD increased 5.6- and 1.8-fold, respectively. The extraction process caused some structural modifications in the enzymes molecules, as evidenced by the alteration of K(M) values determined before and after extraction, either in regard to the substrate (up 35% for XR and down 48% for XD) or cofactor (down 29% for XR and up 11% for XD). However, the average variation of V(max) values for both enzymes was not higher than 7%, indicating that the modified affinity of enzymes for their respective substrates and cofactors, as consequence o
