The NCS(Non-Cariogenicity Sugar) from Bacillus sp. S-1013 was purified by cold acetone and methanol precipitation, and DEAE-cellulose ion-exchange and Sephadex G-100 column chromatographies, to yield an amorphous yellow syrup. The melting point and $[\alpha]_D^{20}$ were 155-$157^{\circ}C$ and +53, respectively. Instrumental analyses such as FT-IR, $^1H-NMR, and ^{13}C-NMR$ showed that the NCS contained an O-H group, C-H, C=O, $NH_2$, anomeric carbon, anomeric proton, N-acetylgalactose, fucose, and neuramic acid, thus, the NCS was determined to be a trisaccharide of Fuc($1\longrightarrow4$)GalNAc($2\longrightarrow6$) NeuAc.

A new combined method including the enzymatic hydrolysis of $\beta$-cyclodextrin ($\beta$-CD) and solvent extraction fo cholesterol from the hydrolyzed mixture was developed to recover cholesterol from a $\beta$-CD-cholesterol complex prepared from dairy products, such as cream, milk, and cheese. Cyclomaltodextrinase (cyclomatodextrin dextrin hydrolase, EC 3.2.1.54, DCase_ prepared form alkalophilic Bacillus sp. KJ 133 hydrolyzed the $\beta$-DC of the $\beta$-CD-cholesterol complex, and then, free cholesterol was efficiently extracted from the hydrolyzed mixture by a nonpolar solvent such as ethyl acetate. To increase the stability of free CDase, immobilized CDase was developed using sodium alginate as a carrier. The immobilized CDase showed a high recovery yield of cholesterol in a time-dependent manner compared to the free CDase. A gas chromatography analysis showed that more than 70% of cholesterol was recovered from the $\beta$-DC-cholesterol complex of cream by the immobilized CDase, whereas only 3% and 29% of cholesterol were recovered when the solvent extraction and free CDase treatment were used, respectively. The cholesterol recovered can be used as a raw material for steroid synthesis. Furthermore, this method can be an efficient way to recover cholesterol or other organic compounds that are bound in a $\beta$ -DC-cholesterol or -organic compound complex.

For isolation of the CMCase gene of the alkalophilic Bacillus sp. strain N-4 to analyze their genetic information for the multicomponents of the cellulase, Bscherichia coli K12 and plasmid DNA pBR322 was used as host-vector system. After the digestion of purified chromosomal DNA and plasmid DNA pBR322 with HindIII, these were ligated. The ligated DND were transformed into Escherichia coli, and recombinant plasmid 107 carried the gene coding for CMCase was constructed. The CMCase produced by Escherichia coli cells containing plasmid DNA pYBC107 was found in the cells as intracellular enzyme and nearly 60% of the total CMCase activity was localized in cellular fraction. Also, the optimum pH for the reaction of CMCase produced by Escherichia coli was appeared at pH .8.0 and the enzyme was stable between pH 7.0 and pH 8.0.

자연계로부터 알칼리성 아밀라아제 활성이 높은 Bacillus sp. GM8901 균주를 분리하여 균을 동정하였으며 그 조효소액을 이용하여 알칼리성 아밀라아제의 몇 가지 성질을 조사하였다. Bacillus sp. GM8901 균주의 특성을 조사해본 결과 B. licheniformis와 비슷한 것으로 나타났으며 $50^{\circ}C$에서 균의 성장과 효소생산이 최대였으며 알칼리성 아밀라아제는 inducible 효소였다. Bacillus sp. GM8901 은 pH 10.5 부근에서 가장 잘 자라는 호알칼리성 균주였으며 효소생산도 최대치를 나타내었다. 조효소액을 이용하여 실험한 결과 알칼리성 아밀라아제의 최적온도는 $50{\sim}60^{\circ}C$, 최적 pH는 $pH\;10{\sim}12$였으며 비교적 $50^{\circ}C$까지 열에 안정하였고 $pH\;3{\sim}12$까지 효소의 안정성이 유지되는 것으로 나타났다.

계명활성제 내성이 있으면서 호알카리성인 protease를 생산하는 미생물을 토양에서 분리하였다. 분리된 미생물을 형태적, 생리학적, 화학분류학적 및 5S RNA 분석으로 동정한 결과 Bacillus sp.인 것으로 판명되었다. 호알카리성 protease는 황산암모늄 분획, DEAE-Cellulose, CM-Cellulose, Sephadex G-100 column chromatogrphy로 분리, 정제하였다. 정제된 호알카리성 protease는 casein에 대하여 pH6.0에서 11.0 사이에서 안정성을 나타내었다. 분리된 효소의 작용 최적 온도는 $55^{\circ}C$이었다. 이 효소는 diisopropyl fluorophosphate(DFP)로 완전히 불활성화되는 것으로 보아 serine protease로 추정되며 계면활성제의 존재하에서도 안정하였다.

A strain BL-29, which produces a extracellular lytic enzyme on E. coli was isolated from the soil. The strain was identified as belonging to the genus Bacillus sp. The lytic enzyme was purified to homogeneity by ion exchange chromatography and gel filtration. Specific activity of the purified enzyme was 28, 850 U/mg protein and yield of the enzyme was 5$%$. The purified enzyme showed a single band on SDS-PAGE and its molecular weight was estimated to be 31, 000 by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and gel filtration column chromatography. The optimum temperature and pH were $55^{\circ}C$ and pH 10.0, respectively. The enzyme was stable at $45^{\circ}C$ but enzyme activity was reduced by up to 50$%$ when the temperature was raised to $55^{\circ}C$ for 15 min. Stable range of pH was from 5.0 to 11.0. but Enzyme activity was inhibited by lead-acetate, mercuric chloride, ethylene glycol-bis-[$\beta$-aminoethyl ether]-N, N, $N^1, $N^1$-tetraacetic acid (EGTA), and ethylenediamine tetraacetic acid (EDTA), but not affected considerably by treatment with other chemical reagents.

The NCS inhibited the activity of glucosyltransferase which was produced by Streptococcus mutans JC-2, and the rate of inhibition at $100\muM<$ and $200\muM$ were 74.0% and 99.8%, respectively. It was stable in alkali condition, but unstable in acid condition. It was also stable up to $80^{\circ}C$. The kinetic study of the inhibition by NCS was carried out by Lineweaver-Burk plot and Dixon plot. It was non-competitive inhibition, determined by the two plots and $K_i$ and $K_i$ values were $15\muM$ and $19.3\muM$ respectively. The NCS did not show cytotoxicity against human gingival cells at $K_i$ ($15\muM$, $150\muM$, $1,500\mu$ M) concentrations. It had less cytotoxicity than chlohexidin, which has usually been used as the agent of anticaries. To evaluate the industrial applicability of the NCS, human pluck tooth was used. The inhibitory rates of tooth calcification and calcium ion elution by the NCS were 41 % and 2.5 times, respectively. These results suggested that NCS from Bacillus sp. S-1013 is an efficient anticaries agent.

Alkaline protease which is an important enzyme used in detergents, leather tanning and food industry was produced by alkalophilic bacterium, Bacillus sp. KCTC 1723 isolated from soil. The maximum productivity of the enzyme in alkaline medium containing 1% sodium bicarbonate was obtained by incubating for 3 days at 37$^{\circ}C$. The optimum pH of the enzyme was 11.5 and calcium ion was effective on stabilization of the enzyme at high temperature. The enzyme was not inhibited by metal chelating agent such as El)TA but inhibited by diisopropyl fluorophosphate. Purification of the enzyme was carried out DEAE- and CM-cellulose column chromatographies and molecular weight of the purified enzyme was determined
