The Important Role of Enzyme Adsorbing Capacity of Soil Minerals in Regulating β-Glucosidase Activity

Yizhi Sheng et al.

Summary: The effect of mineral surfaces on enzyme activity is primarily determined by specific surface area and adsorption capacity, rather than surface charge; enzyme molecules with more distributed spatial distribution have a higher probability of encountering the substrate; the highest decay rate of BG activity was observed in the presence of Mn-oxide.

Prescribed pH for soil β-glucosidase and phosphomonoesterase do not reflect pH optima

Jordon Wade et al.

Summary: This study used a national soil survey database to assess the pH optima of soil beta-glucosidase and phosphomonoesterase, finding that the activities of these enzymes are differently affected by soil pH. The mismatch between prescribed and optimal pH values questions the current practice of setting buffer pH values assumed as pH optima for soil enzyme assays.

Modified universal buffer does not necessarily maintain soil enzyme assay pH

Chongyang Li et al.

Summary: Buffers are widely used in soil enzyme assays to measure specific activities or pH optima, but the pH stabilization capacity of commonly used MUB buffer may deviate significantly in different soils, even with increased concentration. Forcing a specific pH in enzyme activity assays in soils appears difficult, presenting a tension between maintaining pH and maximizing assay sensitivity.

Evaluation of select biochars and clays as supports for phytase to increase the fertilizer potential of animal waste

Chongyang Li et al.

Summary: The study found that immobilizing phytase onto biochar surfaces can enhance organic phosphate mineralization, with both physical adsorption and covalent grafting methods being effective. The carbon-to-hydrogen ratio in biochar is positively correlated with phytase loading, while an increase in pH leads to a decrease in phytase loading.

Sources of abiotic hydrolysis of chromogenic substrates in soil enzyme assays: Storage, termination, and incubation

Rachel C. Daughtridge et al.

Summary: This study evaluated the abiotic hydrolysis of different substrates under various conditions, finding that alkalinization method and substrate type had significant impacts on the extent of abiotic hydrolysis. The study also highlighted the occurrence of appreciable abiotic hydrolysis during the incubation period.

Apparent kinetic properties of soil phosphomonoesterase and beta-glucosidase are disparately influenced by pH

Chongyang Li et al.

Summary: The study found that soil phosphomonoesterase (PME) and beta-glucosidase (BG) exhibit different apparent kinetic properties in response to changes in pH, with the pH optima of V-App(max) and K-App(m) varying widely across soils. The relationship between soil enzyme activity and pH is not solely driven by changes in specificity constant, indicating the importance of assaying enzyme activities at high substrate concentrations to avoid mischaracterizing pH optima. The results challenge the assumption of a constant K-m for a soil enzyme across different pH levels.
