摘要
目的:初步探讨在牙菌斑生物膜天然环境中,内氏放线菌尿素酶能否发挥高效尿素水解反应,以及尿素水解对口腔环境中pH值的调节作用。方法:通过酶促反应动力学实验寻找内氏放线菌尿素水解的最适条件,监测尿素水解调节细菌产酸后的pH值变化。采用SPSS软件包,对酶促动力学实验数据进行线性回归与相关分析。结果:内氏放线菌尿素酶米氏常数Km=7.5mmol/L,在口腔中正常尿素浓度3~10mmol/L范围内,内氏放线菌尿素酶催化活性大约保持在最大活性的20%~63%;内氏放线菌尿素酶最适pH值=6.5,但是在牙菌斑临界pH5.0,尿素酶活性仍保持40%的最大活性;在口腔正常尿素浓度范围内,内氏放线菌尿素水解产物中和细菌产酸后,pH值不会下降到牙菌斑临界pH5.0以下。结论:在牙菌斑生物膜中,内氏放线菌尿素酶可以发挥高效尿素水解反应,尿素水解对口腔环境pH值具有明显的调节作用。
PURPOSE: To explore whether the ureolysis ofAetinomyees naeslundii could keep high level in the natural dental biofilm and the effect of ureolysis on the environmental pH balance preliminarily. METHODS: Enzyme kinetic test was used to detect the optimal condition for ureolysis; and the pH change was measured under ureolysis after acidgenesis. SPSS software package was used for linear regression and correlation analysis. RESULTS: The Km of urease was 7.5mmol/L,it could keep 20% to 63% of the optimal activity with the concentration of urea normally found in the mouth which was at the range of 3-10mmol/L;The optimal pH of ureolysis was 6.5, but at pH 5.0 which was the threshold pH of dental plaque, the enzyme had 40% of the optimal activity; with the concentration of urea normally found in the mouth, pH would not decrease to the threshold pH with ureolysis after acidification. CONCLUSION: In the dental plaque biofilm, A. naeslundii could ureolyze highly actively; ureolysis could moderate the pH balance of plaque significantly.
