This research was focused on expression, purification and characterization of ubiquitin-specific protease 1 (UBP1) expressed in recombinant Escherichia coli. Various systems were constructed by fusing polycationic fusion tails or fusion partners to the C- or N-terminus of the product protein. In particular, UBP1 containing 6 histidine residues at the N-terminal end showed best results in terms of expression level and purification efficiency. The N-terminal $6{\times}His-tagged$ UBP1 was overproduced in recombinant E. coli using high cell density cultivation technology and purified using immobilized metal affinity chromatography. The molecular weight of UBP1 was found to be 83,500 daltons. The optimum temperature and pH for the enzyme reaction when ubiquitin-human growth hormone (hGH) was used as a substrate were $40^{\circ}C$ and pH 8.0, respectively.

In An invertase (EC 3.2.1.26) was extracted from Korean giseng (Panax ginseng C.A. Meyer) with distilled tvater The ginseng invertase was purified about 62.6 folds purified by procedures including ammonium sulfate fractionation , DEAE-cellulofine chromatography and gelfiltrations through Sephadex G-75 and the recovery of enzyme activity was 11.1%. The homogeneity of the purified enzyme was probed by polyacrylamide gel disc electrophoresis. The purifled enzyme was divided into two different subunits by treating with a mixture of SDS and 2-mercautoethanol, and the molecular weight of the large subunit was estimatedtobe 116,000 and that of the small one to be 14,000. The optimal VH and temperature of the enzyme were pH 6 and 45$^{\circ}C$, respectively. The enzyme hydrolyzed specifically the hydrolyzation of the -fructofuranosides such as sucrose, raffinose and inulin. The Km values of the enzyme for sucrose and raffinose were determined to be 0.85 and 0.6 mM, respectively.

Xylanase from Bacillus sp. GS was purified through acetone precipitation, DEAE-Sephadex A-50 ion exchange chromatography and Sephadex G-100 gel filtration. The optimum reaction temperature of purified xylanase was 50t . Its optimum pH was between pH 6.0 and pH 6.5. This enzyme was stable below 5$0^{\circ}C$ for several hours and stable at between pH 5.5 and pH 8.0. The enzyme activity of xylanase was remarkably increased by Co++ and Cu++ ions. According to the study of hydrolysis mode of this enzyme, it was turned out to be ends type xylanase that can produce xylooligosaccharides, known as bifidogenic factor, from xylan.

The carrageenan-degrading marine bacterium Vibrio sp. strain NJ-2 was isolated from rotten red algae, and κ-carrageenase with high activity was purified from the culture supernatant. The purified enzyme with molecular mass of 33 kDa showed the maximal activity of 937 U/mg at 40℃ and pH 8.0. It maintained 80% of total activity below 40℃ and between pH 6.0 and 10.0. The kinetics experiment showed the K_m and V_max values were 2.54 g/ml and 138.89 mmol/min/mg, respectively. The thin layer chromatography and ESI-MS analysis of hydrolysates indicated that the enzyme can endolytically depolymerize the κ-carrageenan into oligosaccharides with degrees of depolymerization of 2-8. Owing to its high activity, it could be a valuable tool to produce κ-carrageenan oligosaccharides with various biological activities.

Glutamate dehydrogenase from axenic bacterial cultures of a new microorganism, called GWE1, isolated from the interior of a sterilization drying oven, was purified by anion-exchange and molecular-exclusion liquid chromatography. The apparent molecular mass of the native enzyme was 250.5 kDa and was shown to be an hexamer with similar subunits of molecular mass 40.5 kDa. For glutamate oxidation, the enzyme showed an optimal pH and temperature of 8.0 and $70^{\circ}C$, respectively. In contrast to other glutamate dehydrogenases isolated from bacteria, the enzyme isolated in this study can use both $NAD^+$ and $NADP^+$ as electron acceptors, displaying more affinity for $NADP^+$ than for $NAD^+$. No activity was detected with NADH or NADPH, 2-oxoglutarate and ammonia. The enzyme was exceptionally thermostable, maintaining more than 70% of activity after incubating at $100^{\circ}C$ for more than five hours suggesting being one of the most thermoestable enzymes reported in the family of dehydrogenases.

The $\beta$-xylosidase from Penicillium sp. FX-102 was purified by 40~80% ammonium sulfate saturation, CM-Cellulose column chromatography, Sephadex G-200 gel filtration, and isoelec- tric focusing. The optimum pH and temperature for the activity of the $\beta$-xylosidase was pH 4.5 and 50$\circ$C, respectively. The enzyme was stable at the pH range of 4.5~5.5, and at 55$\circ$C for 10 min. The molecular weight of the enzyme was estimated to be about 300,000 daltons by Sephadex G-200 gel filtration and 310,000 daltons of monomer by SDS polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Isoelectric point of the enzyme was determined to be pH 4.4. The enzyme activity was strongly inhibited by Hg$^{2+}$, Ag$^{2+}$, n-bromosuccinimide and p-chloromercuribenzoate. Xylobiose (10 mM) was completely decomposed to xylose after 8 hrs enzyme reaction with 2 units of the $\beta$-xylosidase.

A serine collagenolytic protease was purified from the internal organs of filefish Novoden modestrus, by ammonium sulfate, ion-exchange chromatography on a DEAE-Sephadex A-50, ion-exchange rechromatography on a DEAE-Sephadex A-50, and gel filtration on a Sephadex G-150 column. The molecular mass of the filefish serine collagenase was estimated to be 27.0 kDa by gel filtration and SDS-PAGE. The purified collagenase was optimally active at pH 7.0-8.0 and $55^{\circ}C$. The purified enzyme was rich in Ala, Ser, Leu, and Ile, but poor in Trp, Pro, Tyr, and Met. In addition, the purified collagenolytic enzyme was strongly inhibited by N-P-toluenesulfonyl-L-lysine chloromethyl ketone (TLCK), diisopropylfluorophosphate (DFP), and soybean trypsin inhibitor.

Inulin fructotransferase (depolymerizing) (EC 2.4.1.93) was purified 34-fold from the culture broth of Arthrobacter sp. A-6 by using a combination of ammonium sulfate fractionation, DEAE-Sepharose CL-6B chromatography and Sephacryl S-200 gel filtration. The purified enzyme converts inulin into di-D-fructofuranose dianhydride III(DFA III) and small quantities of fructo-oligosaccharides. The temperature and pH optima of the enzyme were $70^{\circ}C$ and 6.0, respectively. Molecular weight of the enzyme was determined to be 49 kDa by 12$%$ SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, and 145 kDa by Sephacryl S-200gel filtration. This indicates that the functional inulin fructotransferase of Arthrobacter sp. A-6 has a homomeric trimer structure. The enzyme had an isoelectric point of pH 4.6. The N-terminal amino acid sequence of the purified enzyme subunit was Ala-Asp-Asn-Pro-Asp-Gly(\ulcorner)-Ser-Asn-Met(or Glu)-Tyr-Asp-Val.
