Abstract
The sequence of a carboxy-terminal of the β-lactam sensor-transducer protein (BlaR-CTD) from Bacillus licheniformis ATCC14580 was extracted from US7745193B2 patent and expressed in E. coli using pColdI vector as a soluble His-tag recombinant protein. In this study, several excipients were used to improve the stability of recombinant BlaR-CTD and obtain the optimal formulation for this protein using response surface methodology (RSM)/ Central Composite Design (CCD). Total protein concentration was measured by UV spectroscopy and the Bradford test. A total of 7 various factors were designed using four different excipients including Glycerol, Sucrose, Triton x-100, and Tween-20, and three different buffers like Tris, Borate, and PBS. By obtaining suitable excipients and buffer i.e. glycerol and sucrose, pH ranging from 7 to 9 were evaluated. The pH 7.62, glycerol 15.35%, and sucrose 152.52 mM were determined as the most suitable for improving the thermal stability of recombinant BlaR-CTD.

Abstract
Tyrosinase is the key enzyme for melanin biosynthesis. Overproduction and deposition of this pigment cause different problems in various industries including agriculture and food. Finding safe tyrosinase inhibitors thus attracts great research interest. The goal of this study is evaluation of inhibitory potencies of some novel synthetic derivatives of tyrosol and raspberry ketone on diphenolase activity of mushroom tyrosinase. The ligands inhibited enzyme activity and compound 4-(2-(4-(hydroxymethyl)-2-methyl-1,3-dioxolan-2-yl)ethyl)phenol (1d) exhibited the most inhibitory potency (77% inhibition, IC50 = 0.32 µmol L-1) via the mixed inhibition mode. This compound was also safe according to the results of in vitro analyses. The enzyme-ligands interactions were theoretically and experimentally investigated using molecular docking and fluorescence quenching approaches, respectively. Modes of quenching and related parameters were also determined and molecular docking data showed that the ligands bind to important sites of the enzyme. These compounds, especially 1d, can be suggested as efficient candidates for further investigations.
