Abstract
Microbial glutaminase has many biotechnological applications in food and pharmaceutical industry. Enzyme deactivation is one of the major constraints in the development of biotechnological processes. This paper describes the study of thermal inactivation of purified L-glutaminase from Bacillus cereus MTCC 1305 at temperature ranging from 35-60�?�? C in term of deactivation energy (Ed), enthalpy (�?�?H), entropy (�?�?S) and free energy (�?�?G). The thermostability curve showed stability of this enzyme up to 50�?�? C with approximately 50% of activity remaining after incubation for 30 minute. The higher value of energy of deactivation (Ed=152.1038 KJ/K) and enthalpy (�?�?H��?149 KJ mol-1) indicates that more energy is required for thermal denaturation of this enzyme. The process of deactivation of L-glutaminase was found to be thermodynamically non spontaneous reaction with positive value of free energy. This enzyme showed more ordered state at all these temperatures with negative value of Entropy (�?�?S). Half-life (t1/2) of deactivation was found to be decreased with increase of temperature indicating higher degree of thermal inactivation process. These all thermodynamic parameters showed stability of this enzyme up to 50�?�? C with half-life deactivation (t1/2=34.478 minutes). The information of thermal characteristics of this enzyme could be a good candidate for industrial applications.
