  • Mussel adhesive protein (MAP) was extracted from Korean Mytilus edulis and then partially purified using Sephacryl S-300 gel permeation chromatography and reversed-phase high performance liquid chromatography. As an indicator of adhesiveness, is 3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine (DOPA) content was determined. Its DOPA/protein ratio of 0.19 was higher than those of other reports, indicating a good adhesive. The partially purified MAP was confirmed by acid-urea polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis using cetylpiridinium bromide as a cationic detergent. Sea mussel hydrolysates were prepared using three commercial proteases to provide value-added functional materials and their angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitory activities were determined. Among hydrolysates of sea mussel, Protamex was the best and further purification would improved ACE inhibitory activity.

  • An extracellular limonoate dehydrogenase was purified 10-fold from a cell-free extract of Rhodococcus fascians by ammonium sulfate precipitation, dialysis, and ultrafiltration. This purified dehydrogenase catalyzed the conversion of limonoate to 17-dehydrolimonoate. The enzyme showed optimum activity at pH 8.0 and $40^{\circ}C$, with $K_m$ value of 0.9$\muM$, and requires Zn ions and sulfhydryl groups for catalytic action. The enzyme activity was inhibited by $Hg^{2+}\;and\;NaN_3$ ions. The degradation of limonin (66%) in Kinnow mandarin juice was successfully demonstrated with partially purified limonoate dehydrogenase. With scale-up preparation of limonoate dehydrogenase, a successful debittering operation of fruit juices appears feasible.

  • Lipase was purified from squid (Todarodes pacificus) liver in an attempt to investigate the possibility of applying the enzyme for biotechnological applications. Crude extract of squid liver was initially fractionated by the batch type ion exchange chromatography. The fraction containing lipase activity was further purified with an octyl-Sepharose column. Finally, lipase was purified by eluting active protein from a non-dissociating polyacrylamide gel after zymographic analysis. Molecular weight of the purified enzyme was determined to be 27 kDa by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The enzyme showed the highest activity at a temperature range of $35-40^{\circ}C$ and at pH 8.0. The activity was almost completely inhibited at 1 mM concentration of $Hg^{2+}$ or $Cu^{2+}$ ion. Partial amino acid sequence of the enzyme was also determined.

  • The antimicrobial activity of partially purified enterocin K25, produced by Enterococcus sp. K25, was abolished by proteases such as pepsin and proteinase K. The bacteriocin was resistant to heat treatment at $75^{\circ}C$ for 15 min and lost 75% of its activity at $100^{\circ}C$ for 30 min. Enterocin K25 showed bactericidal mode of action against an indicator strain, Lactobacillus plantarum NCDO 955. Enterocin K25 was purified to 112.6-fold purity via conventional steps of ammonium sulfate precipitation, ion exchange chromatography, and reversed phase high performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC). The molecular mass of the purified enterocin K25 was estimated as 4.3 kDa on an electrophoresis gel. Plasmid (${\sim}6.5\;kb$) linkage of production of enterocin K25 was confirmed by plasmid curing.

  • An ${\alpha}-Amylase$ was purified to apparent homogeneity from germinating soybean seeds (Glycine max). Enzyme showed high specificity for starch. ${\alpha}-Amylase$ from soybean has optimum pH at 7.6 in the pH range 4.0-10.6. At this pH, the $K_m$ of starch was 2.63 mg/ml and the $V_{max}$ was equal to 52.6 mg/ml/min protein. Optimum temperature of the enzyme was found to be $55^{\circ}C,\;Q_{10}$ equal to 1.85 and energy of activation equal to 12 kcal/mol. Additives like, EDTA reduced the activity of ${\alpha}-amylase$ whereas PMSF enhanced the activity. ${\alpha}-Amylase$ was inhibited by several heavy metal ions.

  • Bacillus thuringiensis var. thuringiensis produces an extracellular insecticidal thermostable .betha.-exotoxin, which was purified through microfiltering, barium precipitation, charcoal absorption chromatography, ion exchange column chromatography and gel filtration. The exotoxin in each purification step was detedted by thin layer chromatography, high pressure liquid chromatography and paper electrophoresis with efficient results. The exotoxin productivity on time course was checked by spectrophotometric absorbance at 258nm with the result that the exotoxin was initially produced in 6 hour culture and reached maximum value in 36 hour culture. Anti-bacterial effect test on Micrococcus flava was applied as toxicity test. The results showed that frowth inhibition of M. flava could be shown in plate assay of cell free filtered supernatant, alkaline eluant from charcoal and purified exotosin obtained from gel filtration column chromatography on Sephadex G-10 appeared to be 740. Heat stability of the exotoxin was confirmed through autoclaving twice.

  • A Fructan-degrading enzyme was partially purified from onion (Allium cepa)bulbs by a combination of ammonium sufate precipitation, concanavalin-A-Affinity chromatography, and ion-exchange and gel-filtration chromatography. The enzyme hydrolyzed sucrose more effectively than inulin and was identified as a $\beta$- fructofuranosidase (invertase). The optimum pH and temperature were pH 5.5 and 35$^{\circ}C$, respectively. The enzymehydrolyzed sucrose with a Km of 1.2mM . The soluble $\beta$-fructofuranosidase is likely glycoprotein based on its ability to bind the lectin concanavalin-A. The enzyme was heatlabie, with mose activity being lost at 5$0^{\circ}C$ in 1 hr of incubation. The onion $\beta$-fructofuranosidase was partially inhibited by ZnCl2 HgCl2 and CuSo4.
