효모의 종류에 따라 세포벽의 composition이 다른 것으로 알려져 있으나 이에 대한 체계적인 연구는 아직 이루어지지 않고 있다. 본 연구에서는 한국 유전자은행 (KCTC)과 한국미생물 보존센터 (KCCM)에서 구입한 15종류의 효모를 $Glucanex^{(R)}$ 200G로 처리한 후 생균수를 측정하여 상대적인 저항성을 비교하였다. 그 결과 Trigonopsis variabilis나 Sporidiobolus pararoseus는 $\beta$-glucanase에 대한 저항성이 높았으며 Pichia stiptis나 Filibasidium cpasuligenum은 $\beta$-glucanase에 대한 저항성이 낮았다. $\beta$-glucan의 함량이 높은 세포는 높은 농도의 $\beta$-glucanase 농도에서도 저항성을 가지므로 이를 바탕으로 여러 효모의 세포벽의 상대적인 $\beta$-glucan 함량을 추정할 수 있다.

The bacteria, which were capable of producing ${\beta}-1$, 3-glucanase inducibly by utilizing cell wall of Aspergillus fumigatus as a sole carbon source, were isolated from soil in the campus of Kyungpook National University. Among them, the strain which produced the enzyme excellently was selected and identified to be Pseudomonas stutzeri KF 13 by morphological, cultural and physiological examination. The optimal conditions for the enzyme production from Pseudomonas stutzeri KF 13 were investigated. the enzyme production was reached maximum state shen the broth cultured for 72hr at $30^{\circ}C$. And the enzyme showed the highest activity in the medium containing 3.5% cell wall as an inducer, 15% yeast autolysate as a nitrogen source and 0.05% $MnSO_4$ at pH 7.5.

Trichoderma reesei Rut C-30 produced high levels of ${\beta}$-glucosidase, endo-${\beta}$-glucosidase, endo-${\beta}$-1,4-glucanase, and exo-${\beta}$-1,4-glucanase. In pilot-scale production (50-1 fermentor), productivity and yield of CMCase (carborymethyl cellulose) and FPase (filter paper activity) were 273 U/ml and 35 U/ml, and 162 FPU/l.h and 437 FPU/g, respectively. The fed-batch techniques were used to improve enzyme activities with constant cell concentration. The acidity was an important parameter and controlled at pH 3.9 and 5.0 by automatic addition of ammonium hydroxide. Cellulase powder was prepared by ammonium sulfate precipitation and its CMCase and FPase activities were 3,631 U/g and 407 U/g, respectively.

The ability of Bacillus subtilis, strain ALICA to produce three mycolytic enzymes (chitinase, ${\beta}$-1,3-glucanase, and protease), was carried out by the chemical standard methods. Bacillus subtilis ALICA was screened based on their antifungal activity in dual plate assay and cell-free culture filtrate (25%) against five different phytopathogenic fungi Alternaria alternata, Macrophomina sp., Colletotrichum gloeosporioides, Botrytis cinerea, and Sclerotium rolfesii. The B. subtilis ALICA detected positive for chitinase, ${\beta}$-1,3-glucanase and protease enzymes. Fungal growth inhibition by both strain ALICA and its cell-free culture filtrate ranged from 51.36% to 86.3% and 38.43% to 68.6%, respectively. Moreover, hyphal morphological changes like damage, broken, swelling, distortions abnormal morphology were observed. Genes expression of protease, ${\beta}$-1,3-glucanase, and lipopeptides (subtilosin and subtilisin) were confirmed their presence in the supernatant of strain ALICA. Our findings indicated that strain ALICA provided a broad spectrum of antifungal activities against various phytopathogenic fungi and may be a potential effective alternative to chemical fungicides.

A highly thermostable ${\beta}-(1-4)-glucanase$ (NA23_08975) gene (fig) from Fervidobacterium islandicum AW-1, a native-feather degrading thermophilic eubacterium, was cloned and expressed in Escherichia coli. The recombinant FiG (rFiG) protein showed strong activity toward ${\beta}-{\small{D}}-glucan$ from barley (367.0 IU/mg), galactomannan (174.0 IU/mg), and 4-nitrophenyl-cellobioside (66.1 IU/mg), but relatively weak activity was observed with hydroxyethyl cellulose (5.3 IU/mg), carboxymethyl cellulose (2.4 IU/mg), and xylan from oat spelt (1.4 IU/mg). rFiG exhibited optimal activity at $90^{\circ}C$ and pH 5.0. In addition, this enzyme was extremely thermostable, showing a half-life of 113 h at $85^{\circ}C$. These results indicate that rFiG could be used for hydrolysis of cellulosic and hemicellulosic biomass substrates for biofuel production.

An endo-${\beta}$-1,4-glucanase gene, cel5L, was cloned using the shot-gun method from Bacillus sp.. The gene, which contained a predicted signal peptide, encoded a protein of 496 amino acid residues, and the molecular mass of the mature Cel5L was estimated to be 51.8 kDa. Cel5L contained a catalytic domain of glycoside hydrolase (GH) family 5 and a carbohydrate-binding module family 3 (CBM_3). Chromatography using HiTrap Q and CHT-II resulted in the isolation of two truncated forms corresponding to 50 (Cel5L-p50) and 35 kDa (Cel5L-p35, CBM_3-deleted form). Both enzymes were optimally active at pH 4.5 and $55^{\circ}C$, but had different half-lives of 4.0 and 22.8 min, respectively, at $70^{\circ}C$. The relative activities of Cel5L-p50 and Cel5L-p35 for barley ${\beta}$-glucan were 377.0 and 246.7%, respectively, compared to those for carboxymethyl-cellulose. The affinity and hydrolysis rate of pNPC by Cel5L-p35 were 1.7 and 3.3 times higher, respectively, than those by Cel5L-p50. Additions of each to a commercial enzyme set increased saccharification of pretreated rice straw powder by 17.5 and 21.0%, respectively. These results suggest CBM_3 is significantly contributing to thermostability, and to affinity and substrate specificity for small substrates, and that these two enzymes could be used as additives to enhance enzymatic saccharification.

꽃송이버섯(Sparassis crispa DSMZ 5201)의 균사를 사용하여 균사외 효소활성을 측정하였다. Yeast-malt extract-glucose 배지를 사용하여 $24^{\circ}C$에서 15일간 배양 후 배양여액을 조효소원으로 사용하였을 때, $\alpha$-amylase효소의 활성은 44.27 unit/$mg{\cdot}protein$이었다. 배양여액 중의 Protease, CMCase, $\beta$-glucosidase, chitinase 및 exo-$\beta$-1,4-glucanase의 세포외 효소활성은 상대적으로 높았으나, xylanase 효소활성은 낮게 나타났다.

A lichenase gene (mt-lic) was identified for the first time through function-based screening of a soil metagenomic library. Its deduced amino acid sequence exhibited a high degree of homology with endo-${\beta}$-1,3-1,4-glucanase (having both lichenase and chitosanase activities), encoded by the bgc gene of Bacillus circulans WL-12. The recombinant lichenase overexpressed and purified from Escherichia coli was able to efficiently hydrolyze both barley ${\beta}$-glucan and lichenan. The enzyme showed maximal activity at a pH of 6.0 at $50^{\circ}C$, with Azo-barley-glucan as the substrate. The metal ions $Mn^{2+}$, $Mg^{2+}$, $Ca^{2+}$, and $Fe^{2+}$ enhanced the enzymatic activity, whereas the $Cu^{2+}$ and $Zn^{2+}$ ions inhibited the enzymatic activity. The $K_m$ and $V_{max}$ values of the purified lichenase were determined to be 0.45 mg/ml and 24.83 U/min/mg of protein, respectively.
