Reminiscence of phospholipase B in Penicillium notatum

Since the phospholipase B (PLB) was reported as a deacylase of both lecithin and lysolecithin yielding fatty acids and glycerophosphocholine (GPC), there was a question as to whether it is a single enzyme or a mixture of a phospholipase A2 (PLA2) and a lysophospholipase (LPL). We purified the PLB in Penicillium notatum and showed that it catalyzed deacylation of sn-1 and sn-2 fatty acids of 1,2...

Purification of phospholipase B from Penicillium notatum by hydrophobic chromatography on palmitoyl cellulose.

Phospholipase B (lysolecithin acyl-hydrolase, EC 3.1.1.5) from the mycelia of Penicillium notatum (Institute for Fermentation, Osaka, Japan; No.4640) was adsorbed from a crude solution to palmitoyl cellulose. Adsorption was efficient at pH 4 at low ionic strength (10 mM buffer), and at pH 4-9 at higher ionic strength (1-2M NaCl in 10 mM buffer). The adsorbed enzyme was eluted from the cellulose...

From Two Strains of Penicillium Notatum

This paper is the second of a series dealing with the analysis of penicillin by means of a chromatogram using solvent-phosphate buffer partition on a silica base. The first paper (Levi, 1948) described the development of this type of chromatogram which is based on that ofMartin & Synge (1941), and outlined the principles of its application to the study of penicillin. The work described was carr...
