This study was carried out to investigate the characteristics of extracellular cellulase and xylanase from 4 selected different species, such as enzyme activity and stability by pH, temperature and metal ions, for application into enzymatic deinking system. The optimal temperature and pH for enzyme activity of Bacillus pumilus I, B. subtilis I, B. pumilus II and B. subtilis II were mainly $40{\sim}60^{\circ}C$ and pH $6.0{\sim}7.0$, respectively. Certain metal ions, calcium and cobalt, elevated enzyme activity, even though there were different results of enzyme activities based on various metal ions in 4 different species. With these results we suggest that enzymatic deinking system should be proceed at $50^{\circ}C$ with neutral pH condition.

To find the role of polyphenol oxidase in lignin biodegradation, chracteristics of extracellular polyphenol oxidase activity from Lentinus edodes JA01 was investigated. Polyphenol oxidase had its optimum activity at pH 4.5 and $45^{\circ}C$ respectively. Also, the enzyme was very unstable in various pHs and comparatively heat stable up to $60^{\circ}C$. In $lignosulfonate-NH_4$ salts medium, the growth rate of L.edodes JA 01 was relatively slow and polyphenol oxidase activity appeared 2 and 14 days after inoculation. No significant relationships were found between polyphenol oxidase activity and the amounts of lignosulfonate present in the culture medium.

Extracellular ${\alpha}$-glucosidase was purified to homogeneity from moderately thermophilic Bacillus sp. DG0303. The thermostable ${\alpha}$-glucosidase was purified by ammonium sulfate fractionation, ion-exchange chromatography, preparative polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE), and electroelution. The molecular weight of the enzyme was estimated to be 60 kDa by SDS-PAGE. The optimum temperature for the action of the enzyme was at $60^{\circ}C$. It had a half-life of 35 min at $60^{\circ}C$. The enzyme was stable at the pH range of 4.5~7.0 and had an optimum pH at 5.0. The enzyme preparation did not require any metal ion for activity. The thermostable ${\alpha}$-glucosidase hydrolyzed the ${\alpha}$-1,6-linkages in isomaltose, isomaltotriose, and panose, and had little or no activity with maltooligosaccharides and other polysaccharides. The $K_m$ (mM) for p-nitrophenyl-${\alpha}$-D-glucopyranoside (pNPG), panose, isomaltose, and isomaltotriose were 4.6, 4.7, 40.8, and 3.7 and the $V_{max}$(${\mu}mol{\cdot}min^-1$$mg^-1$) for those substrates were 5629, 1669, 3410, and 1827, respectively. The N-terminal amino acid sequence of the enzyme was MERVWWKKAV. Based on its substrate specificity and catalytic properties, the enzyme has been assigned to be an oligo-1,6-glucosidase.

An extracellular protease of Salmonella schottmulleri was purified from culture filtrate by using 0-75% ammonium sulfate precipitation, DEAE Sepharose Fast Flow ion exchange chromatography, Ultrogel HA chromatography and Sephacryl S-200 HR molecular sieve chromatography. To measure enzyme activity, synthetic dipeptide substrate (CBZ-arg-arg-AFC) with low molecular weight was employed as substrate. The molecular weight of the purified enzyme was approximately 80 kDa when determined by gel filtration on Sephacryl S-200 HR and 73 kDa when estimated by SDS-PAGE. The isoelectric point was 5.45. The activity of the purified enzyme was inhibited by metal chelating agesnts such as EDTA and 1.10-phenanthroline. The divalent cations, such as Ca$\^$2+/, Zn$\^$2+/, Fe$\^$2+/, Mg$\^$2+/ enhanced its activity. These results suggested that it was a metalloprotease. It had a narrow pH optimum of 6.5-7.5 with a maximum at pH 7.0 and a temperature optimum of 40.deg.C. It was stable at least for 1 week at 40.deg.C and maintained its activity for 24 hours at 50.deg.C, but it was rapidly inactivated at 65.deg.C. This protease was shown to be sensitive to sodium 50.deg.C, but it was rapidly inactivated at 65.deg.C. This protease was shown to be sensitive to sodium 50.deg.C, but it was rapidly inactivated at 65.deg.C. This protease was shown to be sensitive to sodium 50.deg.C, but it was rapidly inactivated at 65.deg.C. This protease was shown to be sensitive to sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) and was inactivated in a dose-dependent manner. However, it was resistant to Triton X-100 and the activity was enhanced to 32.3% with treatment of 0.025% Triton X-100.

지렁이 꼬리재생 초기에 발현되는 피브리노겐 분해효소의 활성은 세포외기질의 재구성에 연관되어 있을 것으로 생각된다. 본 연구에서는 지렁이의 꼬리 재생 중에 발현된 피브리노겐 분해효소의 활성과 특성을 밝히고자 하였다. 지렁이의 꼬리 재생 중에 발현되는 피브리노겐 분해효소는 최소 7개이며 그 분자량은 각각 58, 45, 32, 27, 23, 19 그리고 12kDa로 측정되었다. 피브리노겐 분해효소의 활성은 절단 후 1일부터 효소의 활성이 나타나서 7일까지 거의 유사한 정도의 활성이 유지되었으며, 7일 이후부터는 이 효소들의 활성이 급격히 감소하여 14일에는 그 활성이 대조군 수준으로 회복되었다. 지렁이 꼬리 재생 중 발현된 모든 피브리노겐 분해효소는 PMSF와 aprotinin를 처리하였을 때 효소들의 활성이 억제되었다. 또한 Ca$^{2+}$의 제거는 이효소의 활성에 영향을 미치지 않는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 결과를 통하여 지렁이 꼬리재생시 발현되는 피브리노겐 분해효소는 serine계 단백질 분해효소임을 알 수 있었다.

Two chitinase producing strains CHI2 and CHI4 were isolated from soybean rhizosphere soil. Both the strains belonged to Lysobacter enzymogenes as indicated by 16S rDNA sequence analysis. Though strain CHI2 and CHI4 produced extracellular chitinase, they differ in their chitinolytic activity. CHI4 produced approximately three times the higher amounts of enzyme than that of CHI2 under specified conditions. CHI2 produced $535.67U\;l^{-1}$ of chitinase after 48 h incubation with a specific activity of $3.91U\;mg^{-1}$ of protein while strain CHI4 produced $1584.13U\;l^{-1}$ of chitinase with a specific activity of $10.88U\;mg^{-1}$ protein. SDS-PAGE analysis indicated that the molecular weight of chitinase enzyme was approximately 45 kDa. A faint band with a molecular weight of 55 kDa reveals the possibility for the presence of another kind of chitin binding protein. Mutant library was developed by exposing the isolates to gamma rays at their $LD_{99}$ value (0.23 kGy). Totally, 11 mutants of CHI2 and CHI4 are reported to have enhanced chitinase activity. Several leaky mutant clones with decreased enzyme activity and a defective mutant (CHI2-M16) with complete loss of chitinase activity were also identified. CHI4-M18, CHI4-M8 and CHI4-M29 showed 78.8, 41.5, and 31.9% increased chitinase activity over wild type CHI4.

An extracellular enzyme showing lytic activity on E. coli peptidoglycan had been isolated from Bacillus sp. BL-29. The lytic enzyme was purified to homogeneity by ion-exchange chromatography and gel filtration, with a recovery of 5%. The enzyme was monomeric and had an estimated molecular weight of 31,000 Da. The mode of action of the purified enzyme was also investigated. When the purified lytic enzyme was incubated with cell wall peptidoglycan, N-terminal amino groups were released without the release of reducing groups. The N-terminal amino acid released was identified as dinitrophenylalanine (DNP-alanine) by analysis of terminal amino acid by dinitrophenylation method. This result suggests that the lytic enzyme should be a kind of N-acetylmura-myl-L-alanine amidase.

알긴산을 선택적으로 분해하는 Bacillus licheniformis AL-577 균주가 생산하는 균체 외 효소를 정제하고 특성을 밝혔다. CM-Cellulose, DEAE-Sepharose 및 Gel 크로마토 그래프 등의 순서대로 정제하여 정제도가 약 98배 정도인 효소를 얻었다. 정제효소의 활성 최적 pH 및 온도는 5.0 및 $35^{\circ}C$이었고, pH 5.5이하와 pH 9.5이상의 반응조건에서는 불안정하였으며, $20^{\circ}C$이상의 온도에서는 불활성화가 쉽게 일어나는 효소였다. 얻어진 효소를 SDS-PAGE로 분자량을 측정한 결과 25,500 Da으로 추정되었다. NaCl 0.2 M 농도에서 최대의 활성을 나타내었고, 무첨가시에도 활성은 약간 나타내었다. $Cu^{2+},\;Fe^{2+},\;Mg^{2+},\;Zn^{2+}$ 등과 같은 2가 금속이 온에 의해서는 활성이 현저히 억제되었고, $K^+,\;Li^+$ 이온에 의해서 활성이 촉진됨을 알 수 있었다. 화학약품인 dithiothreitol 와 O-phenanthroline의 첨가로 인하여 약간의 활성 증가를 가져 왔으며 반면 EDTA, L-cysteine는 현저하게 감소하였다. 이 효소는 알긴산에만 특이적으로 작용함으로써 본 효소는 alginase 또는 alginate lyase인 것으로 판단되었다.

A bacterium K-4-3, producing $\beta$-glucan hydrolyzing enzyme, was isolated from soil and identified to be Bacillus subtilis by its morpholohical and physiological characteristics. $\beta$-glucan was coloured using cibacron blue 3G-A and cross linded by the addition of 1, 4-butanedioldiglycidyl ether. This substrate was used for the isolation of $\beta$-glucanase producing microorganism. The $\beta$-glucan hydrolyzing enzyme actibity from isolated K-4-3 strain was also measured using the modified substrate. Bacillus subtilis K-4-3 produced the highest extracellular $\beta$-glucan hydrolyzing activity in the basal medium containing $\beta$-glucan as a carbon source, peptone and tryptone as a nitrogen source, and magnesium sulfate as an inorganic salt. The optimum temperature and initial pH for $\beta$-glucanase production by Bacillus subtilis K-4-3 were $37^{\circ}C$ and pH6. The highest enzyme activity was obtained at the culture age of 54 hrs with rotary shaking at $37^{\circ}C$. The crude enzyme showed the highest activity at pH 7.5-8.0 and $65^{\circ}C$.
