Abstract

Rice bran contains dietary fiber such as hemicellulose, arabinogalactan, arabinoxylan, xylogycan, proteoglycan, arabinofuranoside, and raffinose. Those dietary fibers have a potency as prebiotic and to be fermented by probiotic in colon to produce lactic acid and short chain fatty acid (SCFA). Synbiotic effect of fermented rice bran by Lactobacillus plantarum B2 and Lactobacillus casei on Wistar rats (Rattus norvegicus) was investigated.  A two month old Wistar rats (Rattus norvegicus) consisted of four groups (F0, F1, F2, F3) with five rats of each group were adapted for ten days by giving standard diet (AIN-93). There were four diet formulas: standard diet of AIN 93 M (F0), standard diet with formulated rice bran media (F1), standard diet with fermented rice bran media by L. casei (F2) and standard diet with L. plantarum B2 (F3). The weight, LAB viability, pH, and total acid of rat faecal were measured in 20 days. SCFA production was measured after 20 days experiment. Data were analyzed using ANOVA (α=5%) and least significant difference (α=5%). The best treatment was obtained using ranking method.  F3 was the best treatment with fecal LAB viability of 5.8x107 CFU/g, faecal pH of 6.47 on 20th day experiment, caecum LAB viability of 6.77x108 CFU/g, caecum total acid of 0.20% lactic acid, caecum pH of 6,34, and SCFA total of 11.49 mg/g (acetic acid of 7.11 mg/g, propionic acid of 3.03 mg/g and butyric acid of 1.35 mg/g).Keywords: synbiotic, rice bran, probiotic, SCFA, wistar rat

Abstract

Arabinofuranosidase (Abfa) is one of the most important enzymes involved in degradation of lignocelullose biomass.  Two genes encoding α-L-Arabinofuranosidase (abfA), each from Bacillus subtilis DB104 (abfAa1) and an indigenous Indonesian B. licheniformis CW1 (abfAb3), were cloned by the PCR approach  and expressed in Escherichia coli. Sequences analysis of abfAa1 and abfAb3 revealed that each consists of 1721 and 1739 base pairs long DNA, respectively. Each clone contains a hypothetical open reading frame of 1503 and 1509 bp that encode an Abfa protein of 500 and 502 amino acids for abfAa1 and abfAb3, respectively. The deduced amino acid sequence of AbfaB3 shares 75% identity to that of AbfaA1. The recombinant enzymes were expressed constitutively in E. coli. Partial characterization of those enzymes revealed that the AbfaA1 and AbfaB3 were optimally active at 50 ºC and 60 ºC at pH 6, respectively. Thermostability studies of the recombinant enzymes with p-nitrophenyl α-L-arabinofuranoside at their optimal conditions showed that up to 50% AbfaA1 activity was lost after 5 h incubation at 50  ºC, whereas the AbfaB3 retained its activity over 75% after 12 h pre-incubation oat 60 ºC. This thermostability study of recombinant AbfaB3 showed for the first time that the arabinofuranosidase from B. licheniformis is a thermostable enzyme. The recombinant enzyme showed a higher optimal reaction temperature (60 ºC) in comparison to the previously reported thermostable arabinofuranosidase. The thermostable AbfaB3 has a potential to be applied to the degradation of lignocellulose biomass synergistically with thermostable xylanases, for instance in the production of xylo-oligosaccharides.

Abstract

Currently, Cardiovascular Diseases (CVDs) cases are increasing significantly in Indonesia and the world. WHO reported that in 2019-related CVD patients accounted for 85%, which increased to 87% in 2021. The cases increased significantly by 2%, which is a significant number as it covered the world population. Stroke is a disease affected by platelets undergoing thrombolysis by the α-thrombin (IIa) receptor with coagulation factors on the heart blood vessel. Chemical or synthesis drugs to treat thrombolytics such as heparin are already available, but they would be harmful if misused. In this study, we focused on the activity, interaction, and prediction of the physicochemical of anti-thrombotic peptides. We found that k-casein from kefir has the highest activity of 0.037 A based on BIOPEP analysis with 17 peptide libraries and molecular docking visualization analysis using PyMol, PyRx, and Discovery Studio for screening the best peptide. ToxinPred and AlgPred showed there are no potentially harmful peptides, but the protein variant of β-conglycinin subunit can be an allergen known to the immune system IgE. In conclusion, the GPR peptide has the highest binding affinity, with a total energy of -6.8 kcal/mol.

Abstract

Photoaging is skin aging caused by exposure to UV rays, which increases the expression of matrix metalloproteinase-1 (MMP-1). The photoaging process is related to the degradation of collagen types I and III in the extracellular matrix by MMP-1, which causes wrinkles on the skin. MMP-1 inhibitors from natural products have the potency as anti-photoaging. This study aims to screen the potency of bioactive compounds from Impatiens balsamina L. as MMP-1 inhibitors through in silico studies. The best test ligands were selected based on bioavailability, pharmacokinetics, toxicity, and molecular docking tests against the target protein MMP-1 (PDB ID: 1HFC) compared to that of control ligands (PLH and doxycycline). Peonidin, kaempferol, and pelargonidin were selected as the best test ligands because they accomplish the characteristics of bioavailability, pharmacokinetics, and toxicity. Based on molecular docking results, those test ligands have better binding affinity than that of control ligands, as indicated by rerank scores of -108.807 kcal/mol, -99.9796 kcal/mol, and -98.9128 kcal/mol, respectively. Those test ligands also formed the same interactions with control ligands at residues Ala182, Asn180, Glu219, and Leu181. The results suggest peonidin, kaempferol, and pelargonidin were candidates for anti-photoaging agents through MMP-1 inhibition.

Abstract

Polyethylene terephthalate (PET) plastic is the most widely used type of plastic that produces waste and causes various environmental and health problems. The treatment of PET plastic waste with chemically and mechanically recycling approaches still has shortcomings, so biological processing using microorganisms or enzymes has new potential. Two bacterial isolates from the Indonesian Culture Collection of National Research and Innovation Agency (InaCC, BRIN), namely isolate InaCC B538 and InaCC B947, were further observed for their potential in PET plastic degradation. Firstly, both isolates were determined by the molecular marker 16S rDNA. The potential of both isolates was measured with following method: 10 days of degradation using PET and PCL substrates, esterase enzyme activity assay, and observation of the PET plastic surface using Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM). Species identification was performed using DNA sequencing of 16S rDNA. InaCC B538 and InaCC B947 were closely related to Bacillus altitudinis TBMAX41 and Alcaligenes faecalis AN-13, respectively. InaCC B947 isolate has a better potential in degrading PET plastic and PCL with a degradation percentage of 0.32% for PET plastic and 3.22% for PCL film for 10 days, respectively, and esterase activity of 0.06 U/ml; while InaCC B538 did not cause weight loss of PET and 2.49% for PCL, respectively, with esterase activity of 0.04 U/ml. The degradation of PET plastic by the isolates InaCC B947 was able to cause damage to the plastic surface leading to the degradation of PET plastic.
