Problems solved by technology

However, the HPLC method has the following disadvantages: 1. The method is cumbersome, requiring extraction, separation, purification, concentration and derivation of the reaction product; 2. The cost is high, requiring expensive equipment and derivative reagents, including HPLC systems, fluorescence detectors, 2,4- Dinitrofluorobenzene (DNFB), o-phthalaldehyde (OPT), etc.; 3. It is toxic to the human body, and the reagents used include DNFB, OPT, ethyl acetate, methanol and acetonitrile, etc., which are toxic to the human body, and are easy to pollute the environment. ; 4. The analysis time is long, and it takes 1-2 hours to detect a sample by HPLC method, the work efficiency is not high, and it cannot be applied to large-scale screening analysis
However, theanine, glutamine and glutamic acid are relatively similar in nature and structure, and the paper chromatography method known at present that can realize large-scale analysis cannot completely separate the three, so it cannot be used for theanine Activity detection of acid hydrolase and glutamine hydrolase

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for rapidly detecting activity of theanine and glutamine hydrolase in tea trees. The method includes the steps of firstly, preparing crude enzyme; secondly, detecting the content P of protein in crude enzyme; thirdly, adding crude enzyme to a theanine solution or a glutamine solution to obtain hydrolysis reaction system samples, conducting centrifuging after the reaction is completed, and taking supernate; fourthly, detecting the light absorption value of the hydrolysis reaction product glutamic acid in supernate through high performance thin layer chromatography, substituting the light absorption value into a linear equation, calculating the concentration N of glutamic acid, and then calculating the content M of glutamic acid and the activity of theanine hydrolase or glutamine hydrolase. The method has the advantages of being high in flux and efficiency, and a solid experimental technological foundation is laid for research on metabolism of theanine in tea trees, separation and purification of theanine hydrolase and glutamine hydrolase, gene cloning and function verification of zymoprotein.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of biological material detection, and in particular relates to a method for detecting enzyme activities of theanine hydrolase and glutamine hydrolase in tea trees. Background technique [0002] Theanine (N-ethyl-γ-L-glutamine) is a characteristic non-protein amino acid in tea tree. At present, it has only been reported in Qin (Xerocomusbadius) and some camellia plants (Camellia japonica and Camellias asanqua). Theanine accounts for about 70% of the total amount of free amino acids in tea shoots and leaves, and is an important factor affecting the quality of green tea. At the same time, theanine has important physiological activities and pharmacological functions such as calming the nerves, anti-cancer, and anti-depression. [0003] In the process of theanine metabolism, theanine synthase and theanine hydrolase directly participate in the synthesis and decomposition of theanine, alanine transaminase, alanin...
