Penicillin Amidohydrolases in Fungal Autolysis [PDF]
Microbiology and Immunology, 1989 AbstractThe production of penicillin G and penicillin V amidohydrolases or acylases (E.C.3.5.1.11) was studied during the autolysis of filamentous fungi in a mineral medium, and in the same medium with phenoxyacetic acid as inducer. In all the studied fungi, enzymes showing penicillin G and penicillin V amidohydrolase activities were found.

The Autolysis of Clostridium sporogenes [PDF]
Journal of General Microbiology, 1965 SUMMARY: Washed Clostridium sporogenes lysed during storage at 2° or on incubation at 37° in various buffered salt solutions. The lysis was accompanied by a marked increase in adenosine triphosphatase activity (ATPase), due to an enzyme bound to the cytoplasmic membrane.
