The enzyme putrescine hydroxycinnamoyl transferase (PHT) was purified 400-fold in 7.1% yield from tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L. cv Xanthi) cell suspensions to a final specific activity of 45 nanokatal per milligram protein. The purification procedure involved conventional chromatography techniques (anion exchange chromatography, gel permeation, and hydroxylapatite chromatography) followed by chromatography on caffeoyl-cysteamine-Sepharose. This procedure led to considerable enrichment of a 50 kilodalton protein that could be further purified to near homogeneity by chromatofocalization (apparent isoelectric point = 8). PHT activity was repeatedly found associated with this protein, although approximately 66% of the enzymic activity was lost during chromatofocalization. Purified PHT exhibited the same properties as in the unpurified extract. It was not specific for putrescine and used other aliphatic diamines (mainly diaminopropane and cadaverine) as substrates. The most efficient phenolic substrate was caffeoyl-CoA, but cinnamoyl-, feruloyl-, sinapoyl-, and p-coumaroyl-CoA were also conjugated to putrescine, in decreasing order of activity. PHT could also use the artificial substrate p-fluorocinnamoyl-CoA.
