Purification and characterization of two extracellular β-glucosidases fromAspergillus nidulans [PDF]
FEMS Microbiology Letters, 1992 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 ...

Extracellular α-glucosidase of an alkalophilic microorganism,Bacillussp. ATCC 21591 [PDF]
FEMS Microbiology Letters, 1983 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 ...
