To elucidate enzymatic properties of a-glactosidase (EC 3.2.1.22) from Asp. niger, a-galactosidase from wheat bran culture was purified by ammonium sulfate fractionation, ion exchange chromatography and gel filtration. And then its enzymatic propeties were investigated. The highest level of $\alpha$-galactosidase activity was obtained when Asp. niger was grown on wheat bran medium at $30^{\circ}C$ for 96 hours. The $\alpha$-galactosidase was purified by 23.7 fold by ammonium sulfate fractionation, ion exchange chromatography on DEAE-Celluose and Sephadex A-50, and gel filtration on Sephadex G-150 and its specific activity was 1,229 Unitslmg protein and the yield was 14% of the total activity of wheat bran culture. The purified $\alpha$-galactosidase was found to be homogeneous by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and HPLC. The $\alpha$-galactosidase was a tetrameric glycoprotein which consisted of identical subunits with molelcular weight of 28,000 each by SDS-PAGE and isoelectric point was determined analytical isoelectric focusing to be pH 4.6. The optimal temperature and pH for the $\alpha$-galactosidase activity were $40^{\circ}C$ and pH 6.5, respectively, and 54% of its activity was lost by heating at $60^{\circ}C$ for 10 mins, It was appeared to have higher affinty to raffinose than to stachyose.

These experiments were carried out to isolate SIgA from human and bovine milk. The immunochemical properties of SIgA from human and bovine milk were examined by Gel filtration, DEAE and SDS-PAGE. Double Immunodiffusion, and Immunoelectrophoresis. The results obtained are as follows: 1. Human SIgA was purified from colostrum of Korean women by repeated gel filtration on Sephadex G-200 and Sepharose 6B, but bovine SigA was not cleary purified from bovine colostrum of Holstein cows by anion exchange chromatography using DEAE-Sephadex A-50 and gel filtration on Sephadex G-200 and Sepharose 6B. 2. The immunochemical properties of fractions from gel filtration on the Sephadex G-200 and Sepharose 6B column as assessed by Immunoelectrophoresis and double Immunodiffusion to identify the presence of IgM in first peak fraction, and the presence of pure SIgA in second peak fraction. However, Bovine SigA rich fraction from bovine colostrum of Holstein cows contained a large amount of $IgG_1$-dimer in addition to SIgA. 3. The fragments of reduced bovine colostrum SIgA rich fraction were estimated to have molecular weights of secretory component, heavy chain and light chain (75,000-80,000, 50,000-60,000, 25,000-27,000 daltons) by SDS-PAGE, respectively. Those were similar to the molecular weight of reduced SIgA from human milk.

A strain J-19 was isolated from soil, produced lipase which has resistant against alkali and linear alkylbenzene sulfonate. The strain was identified as Pseudornonns sp.. The enzyme was purified by ammonium sulfate precipitation, DEAE-Sephadex and Sephadex G- 100 column chromatography. The specific activity of the purified enzyme was 35 unit/mg protein and the yield of enzyme activity was 17%. The purified enzyme showed a single band on polyacrylamide disc gel electrophoresis. Mo1ecul;tr weight of the purified enzyme was estimated about 36,000 by Sephadex GI00 gel filtration and SDS-polyacrylarnide gel electrophoresis. The optimum pH and temperature were pH 10.0 and $30^{\circ}C$, respectively. Activity of the purified enzyme was increased 2-fold by the addition of 0.1% linear alkylbenzene sulfonate and 2.5- fold by the addition of 0.05% Tide. This enzyme remained stable from pH 8.0 to 10.0 and stable up to $40^{\circ}C$.

Lipid prooxidants in sardine skin was characterized. Prooxidants in the sardine skin extract with 0.05M phosphate buffer was purified by successive chromatography on Sephadex G-200, DEAE-Sephadex A-50 and CM-Sephadex A-50. Prooxidants of sardine skin exist mainly in the intermediate molecular weight fractions. Observations of the thermounstability and optimum pH(pH 7.0) suggest that the major prooxidants are enzymes and hemoproteins. They can oxidize well both free and esterified linoleic acid and form conjugated hydroperoxides. From these results, the major prooxidants in sardine skin are assumed to be lipoxygenase-like enzymes.

Two forms of extracellular inulinase, designated as PI and PII were detected in the crude enzyme preparation from n species of Pseudomonas isolated from soil. PI and PII were purified to homogeneity by ammonium sulfate fractionation, DEAE Sephadex A-50 chromatography, Sephadex G-100 and Sephadex G-200 gel filteration. Both isoenzymes catalyzed specifically and endowise the cleavage of the $\beta$-2,1-fructofranoside linkage of inulin, and displayed no action upon sucrose, raffinose and levan. The optimal pH values for the PI and PII enzyme were pH 5.5 and 6.0, respectively and the highest activity of the two enzymes was observed at 55$^{\circ}C$. The Km values of PI and PII were calculated to be 2$\times$10$^{-3}$M and 5$\times$10$^{-3}$M, respectively.

The $(NH_4)_2\;SO_4$ (70%) treated crude enzymes from the culture filtrates of the$C-7^{+t}$ strain of Pyricularia oryzae which was grown on 2% CMC (carboxymethyl cellulose) for 8 days at $28^{\circ}C$ were chromatographied on Sephadex G-150 and DEAE-Sephadex A-25 columns. From the chromatography, three fractions of CMCase$(C_x)$ was examined using Na-CMC as substrate. The $C_x$ enzyme activity was optimal at pH 6.0 and $40^{\circ}C$, stable up to $40^{\circ}C$. The values of Km and Vmax of the enzyme were $2.8{\times}10\;mM$ and 5.9m moles/hour, respectively. The molecular weight determined by Sephadex G-150 column chromatography was around 80,000. Approximately sevenfold purified $C_x$ enzyme gave a single protein band on the polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis.

Stu I, type II restriction endonuclease, has been purified to homogeneity from Streptomyces tubercidicus (ATCC 25502), and its catalytic properties have been studied. For the purification of Stu I endonuclease free of nonspecific nucleases, DEAE-Sephadex (A-50), QAE-Sephadex (A-50) and Heparin-agarose column chromatography have been performed after ammonium sulfate fractionation of the crude extract. The enzyme was further purified by gel filtration using Sephadex G-100 column to obtain homogeneous form of protein. The single polypeptide species of Stu I endonuclease has a subunit molecular weight of 34,000 $\pm$ 1,000 daltons as judged by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulfate. Stu I endonuclease requires $Mg^{2+}$ ion for its activity and is maximally active at neutral pH (7.0-8.0) in the absence of NaCl.
