Changes of Lectin Activity of Kidney Beans by floating and Fermentation

강낭콩의 열처리 및 발효에 의한 렉틴의 활성변화

  • Published : 2002.02.01

Abstract

Synthesis of new active protein was investigated by heat-treatment and fermentation of kidney beans with Bacillus subtilis ATCC 51189. The amount of water-soluble protein in raw kidney bean (raw protein, RP) was greatly reduced by heating (heated protein, HP) and several new amino acids were synthesized by fermentation. The molecular weights of proteins determined by SDS-PAGE were 118 kDa for RP and a new band of 18.0 kDa For protein (fermented protein, FP) in kidney beans heated and fermented with B. subtilis ATCC 51189. Hemagglutinating activities of RP, HP and FP were 128 HU, 4 HU and 32 HU respectively. Both of RP and FP showed anticancer activity against stomach cancer cell line (SNU-1) at 50 $\mu\textrm{g}$g/mL and lymphocyte stimulating activity at 1 $\mu\textrm{g}$/mL, and stimulated PBMC to secrete IFN-${\gamma}$ and IL-12. However, HP did not show any kinds of activities. Taken together, these results suggested that lectin in kidney beans was destroyed by heating, hut new active lectin-like Protein was derived by fermentation with B. subtilis ATCC 51189.

강낭콩을 가열한 후 B. subtilis ATCC 51189로 발효시켜 새로운 활성 단백질의 생성여부를 확인하였다. 생강낭콩의 수용성 단백질은 열처리에 의하여 감소하였으며, 발효과정에서 단백질의 양은 변화하지 않았으나, 새로운 아미노산이 합성되었다. 생강낭콩의 수용성 단백질(raw protein, RP)은 분자량 118 kDa의 PHA(phytohemagglutinin)의 전형적인 모습을 보였으나, 열처리한 단백질(heated protein, HP)의 경우, RP의 band는 사라지고, 저분자 peptide로 변화되었으며, 발효과정에 의하여 분자량 18.0 kDa의 새로운 단백질(fermented protein, FP)이 생성된 것을 확인하였다. 또한, RP는 128 HU, HP는 4HU, FP는 32HU의 적혈구응집효과를 보였으며, 위암세포(SNU-1)에 대하여 RP 및 FP는 비교적 높은 농도($IC_{50}$/ $\mu\textrm{g}$/mL)에서 항암활성을 보였다. 그리고, RP 및 FP의 경우 1 $\mu\textrm{g}$/mL에서 림프구 증식효과를 보였고, IFN-${\gamma}$, IL-12의 분비를 촉진하였다. 그러나 HP는 항암효과, 림프구 증식효과, cytokine의 분비촉진효과를 보이지 않았다. 따라서, 강낭콩 lectin은 가열에 의하여 활성물질이 파괴되나, B. subtilis에 의한 발효과정에서 새로운 cytokine 분비촉진물질이 생성되는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.
