The optimum culture time and initial pH, for the production of exo-maltotetraohydrolase from Pseudomonas stutzeri IAM 12097, in the trypticase medium were 36 hrs and pH 6.3, respectively. Exo-maltotetraohydrolase was purified by $(NH_4)_{2}SO_4$ and two times of column chromatography on DEAE-cellulose. Specific activity of the purified enzyme was 108.6U/mg protein and yield of the enzyme activity was 9.4%. The purified enzyme showed a single band on polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis.

Chitinase was induced in rice cell suspension culture with treatment of chitooligosaccharides mixture. Among eleven isozymes found in 10% polysacrylamide gel electropherogram, four isozymes were identified as induced enzymes. Acidic chitinase fraction separated in DEAE-cellulose column chromatography, includes three induced chitinase, while basic fraction contains only one induced isozyme. Treatment of chitooligosaccharides mixture enhanced the contents in both protein and chitinase activity in cell suspension culture media, but increase in chitinase activity was much higher than in protein.

An antimicrobial peptide was purified from the roots of Phytolacca americana L. and was designated as PAMP-r. Purification was carried out by DEAE-cellulose anion exchange, sephadex G-75 gel filtration, Mono S cation exchange, and Resource RPC reverse phage chromatography. The molecular weight of PAMP-r was estimated to be about 4,900 Da by 15% SDS-PAGE under reducing condition. PAMP-r exhibited a broad spectrum of antimicrobial activity. PAMP-r was stable against heat and pH treatment; its activity was not diminished by the heat treatment up to $80^{\circ}C$ for 30 min, and it showed a pH stability in the range between pH 3.0 to pH 8.0.

The extracellular cholesterol oxidase produced from a soil microorganism HSL613 was purified and partially characterized. Through a series of purification procedures including concentration with CH2 concentrator, DEAE-cellulose column chromatography and gel filtration on Superose12, the purified enzyme was shown to have a specific activity of 108 units/mg protein giving 30.8-fold purification and final yield of 66%. The molecular weight of the enzyme was estimated to be 59,500 daltons by SDS-PAGE. The optimum temperature and pH for this enzyme were $50^{\circ}C$ and 6.0, respectively. The activity of the purified cholesterol oxidase was inhibited by $Ag^{2+}$, $Hg^{2+}$ and SDS.

A marine microbe, Vibrio anguillarum was isolated from fish and studied for its concerning pathogenic substance of hemolysin. Purification of hemolysin was achieved by the procedure of ammonium sulfate precipitation from cul-ture filtrate, DEAE-cellulose chromatography, and G-200 gel filtration with 36 fold of purification and 2.3% yield. The molecular weight of the purified hemolysin was 38,000 dalton by SDS-PAGE. The purified hemolysin was stable at pH 6-9, below 45$^{\circ}C$, and up to 1% of NaCl, respectively. $Ca^{2+}, Cu^{2+}, Zn^{2+}, Fe^{2+}$ inhibited the hemolytic activity whereas EDTA and $Mg^{2+}$ did not.

Serratia marcescens ATCC 25419 protease was purified to homogeneity by ammonium sulfate treatment, and DEAE-cellulose anion exchange chromatography. The specific activity of the enzyme was increased 448-fold during purification with an overall yield of 43.0%. Metal reactivation on the purified protease from S. marcescens was studied. S. marcescens protease was a metalloenzyme to be completely inhibited its activity by EDTA and the enzyme outstandingly inhibited by Hg, Fe, Cu, but the activity was increased approximately 20% by Co. The reactivation of the apoenzyme was effective with Mn, Co, Zn in pH range from 6 to 8. Among metalloenzymes prepared to the addition of Mn, Co, Zn to restore the degree of activity of native enzyme, Zn-enzyme was similar to the native enzyme in respects with enzyme activity, alkali-inactivation, thermo-stability.

Lectin was purified by using $(NH_4)_2SO_4$, DEAE-cellulose ion-exchange chromatography and Sephadex G-150 column chromatography from Alismatis Rhizoma(AR). The specific activity of AR lectin was 50, 441units/mg, and purification folds were 114. The AR lectin agglutinated human erythrocytes of all types(A, B, O, AB). The molecular weight of AR lectin was estimated about 90, 500 daltons by gel filtration and each subunits were 42,000, 27,000 and 22,500 daltons on SDS-PAGE respectively. The hemagglutinating activity of the lectin was inhibited by sialic acid, glucose, ribose, galactose, sucrose, and lactose. It was also inhibited by cations such as $Hg^{++},\;Fe^{++},\;Cu^{++}\;and\;Pb^{++}$.

Steptomyces sp. GI 32 with high production of glucose isomerase was isolated from soil. The maximum enzyme production was observed in the culture medium containing 1% sorbitol, 0.6% tryptone, 0.4% yeast extract, 1mM Fe$_2$(SO$_4$)$_3$ with initial pH 7.0 when the cell was cultured at 35$^{\circ}C$ about 18 hours with shaking. The enzyme was partially purified by ammonium sulfate fractionation and DEAE cellulose chromatography. The enzyme was also appeared to be relatively thermostable, and no apopreciable inactivation was observed after incubation at 7$0^{\circ}C$ for 1 hour. The optimal pH and temperature of the enzyme were pH 8.0 and 7$0^{\circ}C$, respectively.

The extra-cellular hemolysin from Bacillus thuringiensis subsp. israelensis was purified in the process of suiting with (NH$_4$)$_2$SO$_4$, Sephadex G-200 gel filtration, and DEAE-cellulose column chromatography. The purified hemolysin had molecular weight of approximately 47,000 dalton on SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The activity of purified hemolysin on human red blood cells was increased by thiol agents, but that was Inhibited by cholesterol, protease treatment, and metal salts such as CuSO$_4$, and FeSO$_4$, respectively.

An inulase from Streptomyces chibaensis was purified about 120-fold with the yield of 38 by ethanol precipitation, DEAE-cellulose chromatography and Sephadex G-200 gel-filtration. The purified enzyme showed the maximal activity at pH 6.5 and was fairly stable between pH $5.0{\sim}9.0$ The enzyme was slightly activated by $Mn^{++},\;Mg^{++}\;and\;Co^{++}$, and markedly inactivated by $Hg^{++}\;and\;Ag^{+}$. The inulase was characterized as a typical endo-inulase which hydrolyzed inulin in a random manner and Km for the inulin was $4.54{\times}10^{-4}M$.
