PURIFICATION AND PROPERTIES OF AN EXTRACELLULAR PROTEASE PRODUCED BY PENICIUIUM EXPANSUM

Purification and Properties of an Extracellular Protease Produced by the Entomopathogenic Fungus Beauveria bassiana.

Beauveria bassiana GK2016 grown in a medium with gelatin as the sole carbon and nitrogen source produced an extracellular protease. The protease production was highest when the fungus was grown on a semiliquid medium and was purified about 18-fold, with a recovery of 21%. The protease molecular weight was estimated by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis to be about 35,000....

Purification and properties of an extracellular protease of Staphylococcus aureus.

Purification and properties of an extracellular collagenolytic protease produced by the human oral bacterium Bacillus cereus (strain Soc 67).

The major collagenolytic proteinase present in the culture filtrate of Bacillus cereus (strain Soc 67, isolated from the human oral cavity) has been purified to homogeneity by a procedure that comprised concentration of ultrafiltered growth medium on a Millipore PTTK00005 membrane, precipitation with ammonium sulfate, gel permeation chromatography, chromatofocusing, fast protein liquid chromato...

Purification and properties of an extracellular blastogen produced by group A streptococci

An extracellular product of group A streptococci which induces lymphocyte blastogenesis has been purified to homogeneity by DEAE-cellulose and CM-cellulose chromatography. The protein, termed streptococcal blastogen A, has a mol wt of approximately or equal to 17,500 and is inactivated by protease treatment and by heating at 100 degrees C. The purified blastogen gave rise to multiple protein ba...

Purification, Characterization and Thermodynamic Assessment of an Alkaline Protease by Geotrichum Candidum of Dairy Origin

Background: Alkaline proteases is the important group of enzymes having numerous industrial applications including dairy food formulations. Objectives: The current study deals with the purification and characterization of an alkaline serine protease produced by Geotrichum candidum QAUGC01, isolated from indigenous fermented milk product, Dahi.<br...

Purification and biochemical characterization of polygalacturonase produced by penicillium expansum during postharvest decay of 'Anjou' pear.

A polygalacturonase (PG) was extracted and purified from decayed tissue of 'Anjou' pear fruit inoculated with Penicillium expansum. Ammonium sulfate precipitation, gel filtration, and cation exchange chromatography were used to purify the enzyme. Both chromatographic methods revealed a single peak corresponding to PG activity. PG enzyme activity from healthy and wounded pear tissue was undetect...
