Abstract
A bacterial strain, designated as Bacillu sp. IJ-3 strain, was shown to produce the extracellular soy protein coagulating enzyme and culture conditions for the production of enzyme by this microbial strain was investigated. The culture medium giving a maximum soy protein coagulating activity was consist of 20%(w/v) soymilk, 2.0%(w/v) glucose, 4.0%(w/v) yeast extract, 5.0%(w/v) polypeptone and 1.0%(w/v) potassium phosphate, monobasic. Initial pH was optimal at 6.0 and the enzyme activity in the culture usually reached a maximal level of fermentation at $35^{\circ}C.$ After the culture medium adjustment where required, enzyme activity was reached maximum at 72 hour of cultivation but this enzyme activity was reduced quickly. It can be assumed that Bacillu sp. IJ-3 strain enzyme has a specificity toward the 75 globulin.
BailIus sp. IJ-3 균주는 균체외 효소로 대두단백 응고효소를 생산하고, 이 박테리아의 최적 효소생산에 대한 배지조성 및 배양조건을 검토하였다. 최대의 대두단백 응고효소를 생산하는 배지조성은 soymilk 20%(w/v), glucose 2.0%, yeast extract 5.0%, peptone 4.0% 및 potassium Phosphate, monobasic 1.0%였다. 초기 pH는 6.0이었고, $35^{\circ}C$ 배양에서 최대 효소활성을 보였다. 조정된 배지 조성에서 72시간 배양에 최대 효소활성을 나타내었으며, 기존배지 활성의 약 5.3배의 효소활성의 증가를 보였다. BaCilIus sp. IJ-3 균주효소는 7S globu1in에 대해 특이성을 갖고 있는 것으로 사료된다.
