Abstract

In order to isolate and characterize a novel fungal strain capable of producing cellulase, each samples of the old rice straw, soil, and the old tree were screened by congo red test. One of the fungi screened has been identified as Aspergillus tubingensis strain from the results of the phylogenic analysis based on partial DNA sequence and the basis of its biochemical properties. A carboxymethyl cellulase activity of the strain was higher than that of A. oryzae KCTC 6291. In CMCase activity measurement, it wasn't sensitive about pH 2.0, 3.0, 4.0, but the enzyme was more stable than A. oryzae under the various pH and temperature conditions and the enzyme activity was more similar to neutrality and alkali. Therefore, it could be suggested that the isolated strain has a potential possibility for the developing of the probiotics.

대전광역시 근교의 야산과 들판 등지에서 썩은 나뭇잎, 짚, 흙을 채취하여 각각을 배양한 다음 Congo red test에 의해 cellulase 활성을 보이는 균주를 선별하였다. Genomic DNA를 분리한 후 PCR을 수행하여 DNA sequence를 Gene Bank를 통해 분석한 결과 A. tubingensis로 밝혀졌다. 이것을 배양하여 상등액을 crude enzyme으로 사용하여 온도와 pH를 달리하면서 효소의 활성정도를 측정하였다. 대조균주로 A. oryzae KCTC 6291를 이용하였고, 본 연구를 통하여 분리한 균주인 A. tubingensis가 생산하는 cellulase는 A. oryzae의 cellulase에 비하여 각각 다른 온도와 pH에서 높은 안정성을 보여주었다. A. tubingensis는 각각의 온도에서 활성의 정도가 비슷했으며, 45$^{\circ}C$, 55$^{\circ}C$에서 높은 활성을 나타내고 있지만, 고르게 활성이 나타났다. 또한 pH 12.0에서 가장 높은 활성을 보여 주었고, pH 2.0, 3.0, 4.0에서는 양쪽 모두 거의 활성이 없었으며, 중성, 염기성에 대해서 활성에는 큰 변화가 없었다. 따라서, 분리 동정한 A. tubingensis는 온도와 pH에서 고르게 활성을 나타내므로 생균제로 활용할 수 있는 범위가 클 것으로 여겨진다.
