Abstract

Ethanol is considered as one of the most suitable substitutes for the petroleum, since it offers attractive functional features at an economical cost. Glucoamylase producing yeasts were isolated and characterized. Based on the morphological character, carbon fermentations, assimilation of carbon and nitrate, growth on vitamine-free medicine, and urease activity, five isolates of Saccharomyces diastaticus, two isolates of Saccharomycopsis fibuligera, and two of Schwanniomyces occidentalis, and each isolate of Ambrosiozyma monospora and Lipomyces kononenkoae were identified. Among 12 isolates, one of the S. diastaticus, E3 showed the highest activity of glucoamylase and identified as Saccharomyces diastaticus. The hydrolysis of starch by the E3 strain showed the release of considerable amount of reducing sugar, along with the reduction in iodine staining capacity. The product of action of glucoamylase, glucose was determined by thin-layer chromatography. The enzyme activity was found to be stable in broad pH range of $5.0{\sim}7.0$ with optimal activity at pH $5.0{\sim}6.0$. The enzyme showed optimal antivity at $50^{\circ}C{\sim}60^{\circ}C$. Soluble starch and glucose were better carbon sources for the enzyme production than xylose and glycerol. $Na^+\;and\;Mg^{2+}$ increased the glucoamylase activity, however $Hg^{2+}\;and\;Ag^{2+}$ inhibited the activity. Soluble starch was the best substrate for the enzyme activity.

대체에너지 생산을 위한 우수발효효모를 선별하기 위하여 전국 지역에서 전분, 전분박 및 전분 공장의 주변 토양과 폐수 등 시료를 채취하여 glucoamylase를 분비하는 효모균 64분리주를 얻었으며 이중 비교적 높은 activity를 보여주는 분리주를 선별하였다. 분리주를 동정한 결과 A1-5, D1, E3, G1과 J20은 Saccharomyces diastaticus로 동정되었으며 Saccharomycopsis fibuligera와 Schwanniomyces occidentalis는 각각 두 분리주, Ambrosiozyma monospora와 Lypomyces kononenkoae로 각각 한 분리주색 동정되었다. 그 중 높은 효소활성을 보여주는 S. diastaticus A1-5, J20과 E3을 선택하여 분비되는 glucoamylase의 일반적인 특성을 조사하였다. 배양액내의 효소의 생성을 측정한 결과 glucose나 saccharose, 그리고 4탄당과 3탄당보다 수용성녹말에 의하여 현저하게 증가하였다. Glucoamylase활성의 반응 최적 온도는 $50^{\circ}C{\sim}60^{\circ}C$였고, 최적 pH는 $5{\sim}6$이었으며, 열에 대해서는 $60^{\circ}C$ 이상에서는 불안정한 활성을 보며주었다. 금속이온에 따른 효소의 활성은 $Na^+,\;Mg^{2+}$에 의해 약간 증가하였으나, $H^{2+},\;Ag^{2+}$에 의해 현저하게 감소되는 현상을 보여주었다. 효소의 기질 특이성은 수용성녹말이 쌀 전분, 옥수수전분과 밀 전분에 비하여 현저하게 좋은 기질임을 알 수 있었다.
