Newly isolated and partially purified trimeric l-methionine-N-carbamoylase from Brevibacillus reuszeri HSN1 was immobilized by covalent coupling to a well-known support material, Eupergit® C. Approximately 80% enzyme activity yield was achieved with ≈61% binding of a soluble protein from a solution containing 5 mg/mL protein. The immobilized preparation was found to be quite unstable due to a poor multisubunit covalent interaction of trimeric enzyme. Additional cross-linking with polyaldehyde-dextran was done to sustain the biotechnological application of immobilized enzyme. The temperature and pH optima of immobilized enzyme were increased by 10°C and 0.5 unit, respectively. The enzyme was significantly stabilized and retained ≈93% enzyme activity when incubated at 60°C for 60 Min, whereas free enzyme lost ≈50% activity. It was recycled nine times with ≈100% conversion efficiency when batch experiments were carried out at 35°C, pH 7.5, for the 180 Min cycle, using 5% N-carbamoyl-l-methionine as the substrate. The half-life of the immobilized preparation was determined as 23 cycles and is significant. Approximately 50% of enzyme activity was retained even after 5 months of storage at 4°C, whereas free enzyme lost complete enzyme activity. Hence, we could enhance the stability of l-methionine-N-carbamoylase to make it a potential biocatalyst for biotechnological production of α-amino acids.
