Expanded separation technique for chlorophyll metabolites in Oriental tobacco leaf using non aqueous reversed phase chromatography

An improved separation method for chlorophyll metabolites in Oriental tobacco leaf was developed. While Oriental leaf still gives the green color even after the curing process, little attention has been paid to the detailed composition of the remaining green pigments. This study aimed to identify the green pigments using non aqueous reversed phase chromatography (NARPC). To this end, liquid chromatograph (LC) equipped with a photo diode array detector (DAD) and an atmospheric pressure chemical ionization/mass spectrometer (APCI/MSD) was selected, because it is useful for detecting low polar non-volatile compounds giving green color such as pheophytin a. Identification was based on the wavelength spectrum, mass spectrum and retention time, comparing the analytes in Oriental leaf with the commercially available and synthesized components. Consequently, several chlorophyll metabolites such as hydroxypheophytin a, solanesyl pheophorbide a and solanesyl hydroxypheophorbide a were newly identified, in addition to typical green pigments such as chlorophyll a and pheophytin a. Chlorophyll metabolites bound to solanesol were considered the tobacco specific components. NARPC expanded the number of detectable low polar chlorophyll metabolites in Oriental tobacco leaf.     

DISSOCIATION AND RECONSTITUTION OF IMMOBILIZED RIBULOSE-1, 5-BISPHOS PHATE CARBOXYLASE//OXYGENASE FROM TOBACCO

Ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase from tobacco covalently coupled to CNBr-activated Sepharose 4B was treated with urea. Analysis by electrophoresis showed that the small subunit was dissociated at 2—2.5 mol/L urea, while the large subunit was still bound to matrix. The large subunit core, L_8, was further dissociated into monomer at 3 mol/L urea. It is suggested that RuBPCase is coupled to Sepharose by virtue of ε-NH_2 on a large subunit. The activity of the immobilized enzyme was inversely proportional to the amount of small subunit dissociated by urea. The dissociated small subunits were almost completely bound back to the S-depleted immobilized RuBPCase, if the urea concentration was diluted to 0.5 mol/L. The enzyme activity could be recovered nearly to 100％. The activity of the S-depleted enzyme was linearly correlated on the concentration of small subunits in solution. These results indicate that the small subunit plays an important role in the maintenance of RuBPCase activity.     

烟草模板制备掺杂过渡金属铈锆固溶体及其催化氧化CO性能研究

以烟梗丝、烟叶片和烟梗条等材料为模板掺杂过渡金属合成了一系列铈锆固溶体材料.对合成的材料进行了扫描电子显微镜(SEM)、N2吸附-脱附、程序升温还原(H2-TPR)、X-射线衍射法(XRD)、储氧量(OSC)、X-射线光电子能谱(XPS)等表征.对铈锆固溶体材料进行CO氧化活性评价,结果表明不同烟草模板制备的铈锆固溶体性能不同.以烟叶片为模板制备的掺铜铈锆固溶体具有极高的储氧量,高达2961μmol/g,但该材料催化氧化CO的活性并非最强.以烟梗丝为模板制备的掺铜铈锆固溶体在铈锆比为45∶45∶10时,对CO氧化有着很好的催化活性,起燃活性温度(T50)为91℃.

基于捕集柱阵列的制备型二维液相色谱纯化烟草中的4个组分

二维液相色谱(2D-LC)因具有较高的峰容量,在复杂样品的分离分析中获得了广泛的关注。然而,制备型2D-LC以纯化高纯单体为目标,在方法开发和设备构成等方面与分析型2D-LC有较大的不同,目前尚未得到充分的开发,在大规模的制备纯化中应用较少。本文以一套制备液相色谱模块为分离系统,以稀释泵、切换阀和捕集柱阵列为接口,构建了新型的制备型2D-LC系统,旨在规模化纯化多个活性成分。以烟叶中可以用作医药原料的烟碱、绿原酸、芦丁和茄尼醇等组分为目标物,考察了不同类型填料对样品的捕集效率、过载条件下的色谱保留行为等,优化了制备色谱条件。进而利用在线2D-LC系统实现了烟叶提取物的纯化,通过一次运行获得了4个高纯化合物。该系统具有中压色谱纯化成本低、系统在线运行自动化程度高、稳定性好及容易放大等优点。烟叶中活性化学成分的回收利用对促进烟草行业的发展及带动地方农业经济开发具有重大的意义。     

Purification of monoclonal antibody from tobacco extract using membrane-based bioseparation techniques

Transgenic plants offer a promising system for large-scale production of therapeutic proteins such as monoclonal antibodies (mAbs). This paper describes a membrane-based process suitable for purification of a humanized mAb expressed in tobacco. Most monoclonal antibody purification schemes rely on the use of Protein A as the affinity ligand for antibody capture. The main objective of our work was to develop non-Protein A-based purification methods to avoid some of the problems and limitations associated with this ligand, e.g. cost, immunotoxicity, and antibody aggregation during elution. Ion exchange membrane chromatography (IEMC) was used for primary capture and preliminary purification of the mAb from tobacco juice. Hydrophobic interaction membrane chromatography (HIMC) was then used for high-resolution purification, followed by ultrafiltration for polishing, desalting and buffer exchange. Using this scheme, both high mAb purity (single peak in size exclusion chromatogram, i.e., ca. 100% purity) and high recovery (77% of mAb spiked into the tobacco extract) were achieved. Membrane chromatography is generally considered unsuitable for resolving bound proteins by gradient elution and is therefore commonly used in the bind and elute mode with a single-step change of mobile phase. We show that the gradient elution process in the HIMC step can be optimized to increase the resolution and thereby obtain product of high purity.     

Separation,identification, and structural characterization of sucrose ester isomers from tobacco

Sucrose esters (SEs) are crucial tobacco smoke flavor precursors and play a significant role in tobacco's functionality. Due to their structural complexity, the separation and analysis of SEs in tobacco remain a major challenge, and massive structures of SEs have not yet been fully identified. In this study, the fractions enriched in SEs were obtained from oriental and flue-cured tobacco through a series of pretreatments, and two types of SEs (Types I and II) were distinguished by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MSⁿ) analysis, with Type II SEs newly characterized in tobacco. Five groups of main SEs were further purified using preparative high-performance LC (HPLC) coupled to an evaporative light scattering detector, and their structures were characterized by nuclear magnetic resonance spectrometry techniques including ¹H, ¹³C, correlation spectroscopy, heteronuclear single quantum correlation, and heteronuclear multiple bond correlation. By combining LC-MSⁿ and nuclear magnetic resonance spectrometry, the structures of eight SE isomers were finally proposed, of which four were newly identified. These findings further enhance the understanding of the structural diversity of SEs in tobacco, serving as a valuable reference for future research on the elucidation, synthesis, and metabolism of SEs.

Porphyrin light-harvesting arrays constructed in the recombinant tobacco mosaic virus scaffold

We have demonstrated the construction of multiple porphyrin arrays in the tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) supramolecular structures by self-assembly of recombinant TMV coat protein (TMVCP) monomers, in which Zn-coordinated porphyrin (ZnP) and free-base porphyrin (FbP) were site-selectively incorporated. The photophysical properties of porphyrin moieties incorporated in the TMV assemblies were also characterized. TMV-porphyrin conjugates employed as building blocks self-assembled into unique disk and rod structures under the proper conditions as similar to native TMV assemblies. The mixture of a ZnP donor and an FbP acceptor was packed in the TMV assembly and showed energy transfer and light-harvesting activity. The detailed photophysical properties of the arrayed porphyrins in the TMV assemblies were examined by time-resolved fluorescence spectroscopy, and the energy transfer rates were determined to be 3.1-6.4x10(9) s(-1). The results indicate that the porphyrins are placed at the expected positions in the TMV assemblies.
