Regulation of inulinase biosynthesis was studied in Bacillus sphaericus 188-1 Biosynthesis of inulinase was effectively induced in the presence of 0.5% inulin for 8 hrs. Fructose (0.5%) repressed the inulinase induction by inulin and as late as addition time of fructose, inulinase formation was decreased. Catabolite repression was not reduced by the addition of CAMP for 8 hrs of induction.

고정화 inulinase를 이용하여 inulin으로부터 fruc-tose 시럽을 연속적으로 생산하기 위하여 Bacillus sphaericus 188-1이 생성하는 inulinase를 부분 정제한후 5시간 NaIO$_4$로 산화시킨 cellulose에 고정화시킨 다음 이들의 성질을 조사하였다. 산화 cellulose에 고정화시킨 inulinase의 활성은 g당 47 Unit 이었고 고정화수율과 활성수율은 각각 41%와 39%이었다. 고정화시킨 inulinase의 작용 최적온도와 pH는 각각 5$0^{\circ}C$, pH 9.0이었고 5$0^{\circ}C$, pH 8.0~10.0에서 비교적 안정 하였다 고정화시킨 inulinas의 활성은 K+, Ca2+, Mn2+과 Hg2+에 의하여 활성화 되었으며 EDTA(10mM)에 의하여 심하게 저해되었다.

In order to obtain basal data for industrial application of inulinase from Bacillus sphaeicus 188-1, its intracellular inulinase was purified by ammonium sulfate fractionation and column chromatography on DEAE-Sephadex A-50 and Sephadex G-100. The enzyme was homogeneous as judged by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, with an apparent molecular weight of 29 kDa. Inulinase activity was optimal at pH 6.5 and 4$0^{\circ}C$. The enzyme activity was significantly inhibited by Cu$^{2＋}$, Cd$^{2＋}$ and Hg$^{2＋}$. The inulinase exhibited an apparent Km value of 0.014% for inulin.
