Abstract

Among the cellulases by Cellulomonas sp. KL-6. CMCase and filter paperase, which were produced as the out enzymes of cell, had been much produced, but very small amounts of ${\beta}-glucosidase $, the enzyme of which is cell bound form, was produced by this organism. The optimal culture times for CMCase and filter paperase productions were 5 days, while that of ${\beta}-glucosidase$ was 4 days. When this strain was cultured under the optimal medium for enzyme production, CMCase, FPase and ${\beta}-glucosidase$ were $82\;units/m{\ell},\;80\;units/m{\ell}\;and\;1.2\;units/m{\ell}$, respectively. Thus these results were showed to increase enzyme productivities as about $60{\sim}70%$ than those produced in basal medium. $CaCO_3$ injected to the medium as the ratio of 0.1% was not only enhanced cellulase activities but also effective as acid neutralizing agent. The production effects of lignase and lactase by this bacterium in filter paper medium was not appeared.

Cellulomonas sp. KL-6 균주가 생산하는 cellulase 중 CMCase나 FPase는 세포외로 다량 분비되나 ${\beta}-glucosidase$는 cell bound form으로 존재하여 배양액에서의 생산은 극히 미약하였다. CMCase와 FPase는 배양 5일째에, ${\beta}-glucosidase$는 배양 4일째에 각각 최대생산을 나타내었다. $CaCO_3(0.1%)$가 첨가된 효소생산 최적조건에서 CMCase는 $82\;unit/m{\ell}$를, FPase는 $80\;unit/m{\ell}$를 그리고 ${\beta}-glucosidase$$1.2\;unit/m{\ell}$를 각각 생산하였고 이는 기본배지에서 보다 $60{\sim}70%$의 생산증가를 가져왔다. KL-6 균주는 lignase와 laccase의 생산은 없었다.
