Bacillus licheniformis WL-12의 carboxymethyl cellulase (cellulase) 유전자를 함유한 대장균 균체 파쇄상등액으로부터 DEAE-Sepharose와 Q-Sepharose 컬럼 크로마토그래피를 통해 cellulase를 정제하였다. 정제된 효소의 비활성은 163 U/mg이었으며, SDS-PAGE에 의해 측정된 분자량은 약 49.5 kDa으로 나타났다. pH 5.5와 $55^{\circ}C$에서 최대 반응활성을 보였으며, SDS (5mM)에 의해서는 cellulase의 활성이 완전히 저해되었고 $Cu^{2+}$5mM)에 의해서는 약간 증진되었다. 정제된 cellulase는 CMC, konjac, barley $\beta$-glucan과 lichenan을 가수분해하였으나 xylan, locust bean gum 및 p-nitrophenyl-$\beta$-glucopyranoside를 분해하지 못하였다. Cellooligosaccharides를 정제된 WL-12 cellulase로 분해하였을 때 cellobiose와 cellotriose가 주된 최종 반응산물로 관찰되었으며 cellobiose보다는 중합도가 큰 cellotriose, cellotetrasoe와 cellopentaose는 분해하였으나 cellobiose는 분해하지 못하는 것으로 확인되었다.

A cellulolytic bacterial strain, S2-3, was isolated from sea water collected in Jeju island, Republic of Korea. The strain was aerobic and gram negative, and formed yellow colored colonies on marine agar medium. S2-3 cells were long rod-shaped, 0.5 × 0.25 ㎛ (width x length) in size, and did not have flagella. The optimal growth conditions for S2-3 were 30-35℃ and pH 6.5-7.0. Analysis of the 16S rRNA gene sequence of S2-3 revealed that it had the highest identity with those of Seonamhaeicola algicola Gy8 (97.08%), Hyunsoonleella udonensis JG48 (95.01%), and Aestuariibaculum scopimerae I-15 (94.86%). In phylogenetic analysis, S2-3 formed the same clade as S. algicola Gy8, implying that S2-3 belongs to the genus Seonamhaeicola. The major fatty acids (>10%) comprised C15:1 iso G (22.29%), C15:0 iso (17.71%), C17:0 iso 3OH (16.06%), and C15:0 iso 3OH (10.7%), resulting in quite different ratio of the component from those of S. algicola Gy8. Moreover, its biochemical characteristics, including acid production and enzyme activities, were different from those of S. algicola Gy8. Therefore, putting all these results together, we concluded S2-3 is distinct species from S. algicola Gy8, and thus named it Seonamhaeicola sp. S2-3. In liquid culture, S2-3 produced extracellular cellulases that can hydrolyze cellulose or cellooligosaccharides into cellobiose, which is a good enzyme resource that deserves further research.
