A constitutive, plasma-membrane bound β-glucosidase inTrichoderma reesei [PDF]
Plasma membranes of Trichoderma reesei QM 9414, isolated from protoplasts by means of the concanavalin A procedure, contained β-glucosidase activity, which appeared constitutively upon growth on glucose. The enzyme had a pH optimum around 6, and was active on p-nitrophenyl-β-d-glucoside, cellobiose and sophorose (Km 0.7, 3.9 and 3.1 mM, respectively ...

Purification and characterization of two extracellular β-glucosidases fromAspergillus nidulans [PDF]
Two β-glucosidases, P-I and P-II, were purified from the culture filtrate of Aspergillus nidulans. The Mr values of P-I and P-II were about 125 000 and 50 000, respectively. The isoelectric point, optimal pH and temperature, Michaelis constants for several substrates and inhibition constants for glucose and glucono-δ-lactone of each enzyme were ...

Dietary Polyphenols as Natural Inhibitors of α-Amylase and α-Glucosidase
It is well known that carbohydrates are the main source of calories in most diets. However, by inhibiting carbohydrases, intake of calories is reduced and weight loss is improved.

Extracellular α-glucosidase of an alkalophilic microorganism,Bacillussp. ATCC 21591 [PDF]
Bacillus sp. ATCC 21591, an alkalophilic bacterium, produces 3 enzymes associated with degradation of starch-α-amylase, pullulanase and α-glucosidase. The latter reached a maximum after 24 h growth. Highest activities of α-glucosidase and pullulanase were obtained when the initial pH of the medium was 9.7 and although at pH 10.4 highest biomass was ...

Inhibitory Mechanism of Engeletin Against α-Glucosidase
The inhibitory mechanism of engeletin against α-glucosidase was investigated for the first time by fluorescence spectroscopy and molecular docking. The results showed that engeletin could inhibit α-glucosidase in a noncompetitive inhibition mode with a ...
