Investigation of the Hydrolysis of Polysaccharides by Crude Cellulases prepared from Several Species of Fungi

Crude cellulases freshly prepared from cultures of Aspergillus niger, Prnicillum motatum, Trichoderma vride 16273 and Trichoderma viride 16374 were assayed on 4 different substrates including Na-CMC, cellulose powder, starch and sucrose. Enzyme prepared from A. niger contained highly active hydrolytic enzymes of the 4 substrates assayed. P. notatum [yielded relatively lower amount of cellulase but the extracts were also highly reactive on starch and sucrose. Trichoderma viride 16274 yielded very little cellulase and invertase, but the extracts showed a high degree of amylase activity. Trichoderma viride 16374, however, yielded collulase comparable to that of Penicillium notatum, but lower activities of amylase and invertase were seen. Commercial cellulases prepared from Penicillium notatum (cellulase[K]) and Trichoderma viride(cellulase[J]) indicated enzyme activities closely parallel to the crude enzymes freshly prepared from fungus cultures. The optimum pH's of cellulolytic activities of cellulase[K] and cellulase[J] were 4.0 and 5.0 respectively. The optimum temperatures of the cellulolytic activities of cellulase[K] and cellualse[J] were 4.0 and 5.0 respectively. The optimum temperatures of the cellulolytic activities of cellulase [K] and cellulase [J] were $60{\circ}C$ and $50{\circ}C$ respectively. Assuming the average molecular weight of Na-CMC is about 115,000, the Km values of cellulase [K] and cellulase[J] were found to be $3.3{\times}10^{-5}/nM$ and $3.3{\times}10^{-4}/nM$ respectively.
