Abstract
Studies on the glucose isomerase produced by alkalophilic Streptomyces sp. B-2. Glucose Isomerase (E. C. 5.3.1.5) which reversibly catalyzes reaction between D-glucose and D-fructose was demonstrated in cell free extracts of alkalophilic Streptomyces sp. B-2 isolated form soil. The maximum enzyme activity was found at glucose concentration 4(g/$\ell$) , xylose concentration 6(g/$\ell$), magnesium ion 1.0(g/$\ell$), yeast extract concentration 2.0(g/$\ell$), peptone concentration 3(g/$\ell$).
