A soil inhabiting Pseudomonas sp. has been examined for producing L- methionine gamma-lyase enzyme. The identity of the tested bacteria was verified by VITEK2, and MALDI-TOF analysis in addition to molecular confirmation by 16S rDNA sequence and submitted in Genbank under accession number ON993898.1. Production of the targeted enzyme was done using a commercial medium including Lmethionine, as the main substrate. This obtained enzyme was precipitated using acetone (1:1v/v) followed by purification with Sephadex G100 and sepharose columns. The specific activity of the purified enzyme (105.8 lmol/ mg/min) increased by 1.89 folds after the purification steps. The peptide fingerprint of the native MGL was verified from the proteomics analysis, with identical conserved active site domains with database-deposited MGLs. The molecular mass of the pure MGL denatured subunit was (>40 kDa) and that of the native enzyme was (>150 kDa) ensuring their homotetrameric identity. The purified enzyme showed absorption spectra at 280 nm and 420 nm for the apo-MGL and PLP coenzyme, respectively. Amino acids suicide analogues analysis by DTNB, hydroxylamine, iodoacetate, MBTH, mercaptoethanol and guanidine thiocyanate reduced the relative activity of purified MGL. From the kinetic properties, the catalytic effectiveness (Kcat/km) of Pseudomonas sp. MGL was 10.8 mM -1 S-1 for methionine and 5.51 mM -1 S-1 for cysteine, respectively. The purified MGL showed highly significant antiproliferative activity towards the liver carcinoma cell line (HEPG-2) and breast carcinoma cell line (MCF-7) with half inhibitory concentration values (IC50) 7.23 U/ml and 21.14 U/ml, respectively. No obvious signs of toxicity on liver and kidney functions in the examined animal models were observed.
