The bacteriocin produced by Lactobacillus sp. GM7311 was purified by sequential steps including n-propanol/acetone treatment, CM-cellulose chromatography, and gel filtration on Sephacryl HR-100. The relative activity of bacteriocin increased 493-fold after final purification step with a recovery of 8.3%. Two protein bands of ca. 8,200 and 2,500 were detected by SDSPAGE of bacteriocin purified through CM-cellulose and sephacryl HR-100 chromatography and both of them had bacteriocin activity.

Ascorbate oxidizing enzyme from the crude extract of Pleurotus ostreatus was purified by ammonium sulfate precipitation, preparative polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, DEAE Sepharose CL-6B ion exchange chromatography and Sephadex G-150 gel filtration chromatography. The molecular weight of the enzyme estimated by Sephadex G-150 gel filtration chromatography was 140,000 and that of its subunit by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis 66,000. The optimum pH for the maximum activity of the enzyme was 5.2 and the isoelectric point of the enzyme was 6.0 Km values for L-ascorbic acid and D-isoascorbic acid were both 2.2.$\mu$M, which indicates that the enzyme has the asme affinity towards both substrates.

A new method developed for simultaneous purification of enterotoxin A and C from Staphylococcus aureus strain L 350/1 consisted of chromatography on carboxymethyl (CM)-cellulose using a buffer of variable pH, gel filtration on Ultro gel, and fast protein liquid chromatography(FPLC) using a buffer of variable pH. The enterotoxin A and C were purified by three steps: batchwise adsorption from culture supernatant on Amberlite CG-50; chromatography on CM-cellulose using a buffer of constant pH and molarity; and gel filtration on Sephadex G-75. The purified enterotoxin appeared homogeneous by gel diffusion and polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Upon treatment with CM-cellulose using a elution of variable pH, enterotoxin A and C were so close that they were not separated completely. After elution from gels, the enterotoxins appeared as a single peak at the same position. Gel filtration gave a reaction of complete identity to enterotoxin A and C in Ouchterlony immunodiffusion. In FPLC using a CM-cellulose, enterotoxin A and C were simultaneously separated at pH 8.6 and 6.8. When each fraction was performed to gel immunodiffusion, at peak of enterotoxin A and C were not detected each other. In a method of elution by pH-gradient was to be more efficient as a simultaneous separation method in terms of speed, yields and simplicity. The purified toxin A and C were identical to type A and C reference enterotoxin on both disc electrophoresis and Ouchterlony gel diffusion.

The steroid 9${alpha}$-hydroxylase activity has been detected in cytosol fraction, $100,00{\times}g$ supernatant of cell free extract of Mycobacterium fortuitum. The activity was not linear with protein concentration in the assay suggesting 9${alpha}$-hydroxylase is a multicomponent enzyme. The 9${alpha}$-hydroxylase system was partially purified through fractional saturation of ammonium sulfate, strong anion exchange (Mono Q) column chromatography, gel filtration (Superose 12) column chromatography, and testosterone affinity gel chromatography. Ammonium sulfate 50~60% saturated fraction of the cytosol gave 9${alpha}$-hydroxylase activity. For further purification, the half-saturated ammonium sulfate fraction was applied to Mono Q, Superose 12, or affinity gel column. The purification factors of 9${alpha}$-hydroxylase containing fraction after Mono Q, Superose 12, and affinity gel chromatography was 13, 11, and 17 respectively.

To isolate and purify fibrinolytic active substance from Sarcodon aspratus(N $H_4$)$_2$S $O_4$ precipitation, DE52 anion exchange column chromatography, Sephacryl-S 200gel filtration chromatography and Mono S cation FPLC were carried out and the characterizations of the purified enzyme were investigated. The bound active fraction on DE52 anion exchange column chromatography were eluted with 0.2 M NaCI and the fibrionlytic enzyme was purified after following Sephacryl-S200 gel fitration chromatography and Mono S cation EPLC. The specific activity of purified enzyme was 55.2 U/mg protein and increased 11.3 fold comparing crude extract and the yield was 49.5%. 12% SDS-PAGE electrophoresis and gel filtration chromatography revealed that Sarcodon aspratus fibrionloytic enzyme was highly purified and had 29.300 Da molecular weight. Enzyme activity of the purified fibrinolytic enzyme from Sarcodon aspratus was increased on higher pH and was stable until pH 10.5. On temperature dependent stability, the enzyme activity was decrease sharply but remained 25% relative activity on 8$0^{\circ}C$. This enzyme activity was inhibited by heavy metal ion, C $U^{2+}$ and $Co^{3+}$ with 68% and 38%, respectively. And also, the enzyme activity was inhibited with $Ca^{2+}$ chelator EDTA and serine protease inhibitor PMSF. These results from this study suggested that the fibrinolycit enzyme from Sarcodon aspratus is a serine protease and the enzyme activity was increased by $Ca^{2+}$ or $Mg^{2+}$ ion.n.ion.n.

Isolation of phycobiliprotein from S. platensis was performed by using $30-60{\%}$ ammomium sulfate fractionation, Sephadex G-100 gel filtration and DEAE-Sephacel anionic exchange chromatography. Isolated phycobiliprotein was determined to be a c-phycocyanin with a maximum absorption wavelength at 620 nm. This phycobiliprotein consisted of $({\alpha}$ and $({\beta}$ subunit when analyzed through SDS-PAGE. The molecular weights of $({\alpha}$ and $({\beta}$ subunit were 14.5 kDa and 16 kDa, respectively. The native molecular weight of phycobiliprotein through gel filtration was about 100 kDa. These results show that the structure of phycobiliprotein from S. platensis might be aggregated form of $({\alpha}{\beta})_{3}-trimer$.

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.

The molecular weight of the native enzyme was 150.000 dalton when it was estimated with Sephacryl S-200 gel filtration chromatography. Its molecular weight appeared as 75.000 dalton by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. which suggested that this enzyme was consisted with two identical subunits.
