본 균의 생육 및 효소생산에 유용한 탄소원으로서 자연계의 식물에 풍부한 펙틴을 탄소원으로 할 경우, 그 생육도는 전분보다 뛰어났으며, alcohol oxidase와 catalase의 생산량도 높아지는 것으로 나타났다. 특히 alcohol oxidase의 경우는 전분의 15배 이상의 생산량을 보여 본 균과 펙틴 이용성과의 관계를 시사하였고, 세포외 pectin esterase, pectinase등의 높은 활성이 검출되어 이를 증명하였다. 또한 alcohol oxidase 반응에서 생성되는 물질인 formaldehyde를 산화하는 formaldehyde dehydrogenase와, formate를 산화하여 $CO_2$를 생성하는 formate dehydrogenase의 반응을 발견하여, 본 균의 pectin 이용성과 관련한 일련의 에너지 대사계의 존재를 추정할 수 있었다.

수확 후 감귤의 장기저장은 주로 곰팡이에 의한 부패로 어려움을 겪어왔다. 본 연구에서는 감귤부패 곰팡이를 수집, 동정함으로써 수확후 저장성을 증대하는데 기여하고자 하였다. 1994년 가을부터 1995년 봄에 걸쳐 대기중에 노출된 채로 상온에 저장 중 부패된 온주밀감으로부터 14개의 상이한 균주를 분리하였다. 저장 중 각 곰팡이에의한 병해의 발생빈도는 Penicillium italicum 25.8%, Monila candida 19.8%, Alternaria citri 18.1%, Mucor hiemalis 11.0%, Phomopsis citri 6.6%, Botrytis cinerea 5.5%, Phoma citricarpa 3.8%, Glomerella cingulata 3.8% 그리고 P. digitatum 1.1% 순이었고, 기타 곰팡이가 4.5%를 차지 하였다. 한편 생리적 특성상 동정된 모든 균주가 펙틴 분해효소를 생산하였다. 이러한 연구결과는 감귤의 부패와 곰팡이의 펙틴분해능간에는 연관성이 있음을 시사한다. 수집된 곰팡이 균주는 감귤의 부패를 방지하는 연구에 이용될 것이다.

김치의 연화현상을 방지하기 위해 배추에 존재하는 펙틴에스테라제(PE)와 폴리갈락투로나제(PG)의 특성을 이용하여 예비 열처리 조건을 구하고 예비 열처리한 배추로 김치통조림을 제조하여 6개월 간 저장한 후 경도를 살펴보았다. 최적 pH는 PE가 8.0, PG가 5.2이었으며 최적 NaCl농도는 PE가 0.25M, PG가 0.3M이었다. PE의 최적 $CaCl_2$농도는 0.02M이었으며 이 농도에서 PG는 저해되었다. 최적 온도는 PE가 $50^{\circ}C$, PG가 $65^{\circ}C$이었다. 예비 열처리는 $50^{\circ}C$의 0.05M $CaCl_2$ 용액에서 1시간 30분 동안 열처리하는 것이 최적으로 나타났다. 예비 열처리법에 의해 제조한 김치통조림을 6개월간 저장했을 때 대조구에 비해 줄기와 잎사귀는 경도가 더 높았으며 연화가 현저히 방지됨을 알 수 있었다.

In this study Bacillus subtilis PTCC 1023 was used for the production of protopectinase using soybean based media. The use of isolated soybean protein (ISP) and soybean flour resulted in similar protopectinase production and growth rates. The effect of medium composition on protopectinase production was studied using central composite design (CCD) methodology. The change in the concentration of ISP (1-7%), glucose (0-10%), and phosphate (0.1-0.3 M) was found to affect the protopectinase activity (response variable) after 24 hr of cultivation. In the range studied, ISP and glucose had a negative effect on the response variable, whereas phosphate had a positive effect. A statistically significant interaction was identified between phosphate and ISP, suggesting that correct optimization of medium formulation in this case can only be obtained using factorial design of experiments. Protopectinase activity exceeding 215 U/mL was obtained in a medium containing 4% ISP, 0.3M phosphate, and no added sugar.

The strain SL-387 which produces new inhibitors of aminopeptidase M, MR-387A and B, was isolated from a soil sample. The strain has branched substrate mycelia, from which aerial hyphae develop in the form of open spirals. Spore surface is smooth. Melanoid and soluble pigme- nts were observed. The isolate contains LL-diaminopimelic acid in its cell wall hydrolysate, and has no pectinolytic activity. The strain SL-387 is closely related to Streptomyces griseoruber and S. naganishii, but is different from these strains in some cultural and physiological characteristics. This strain was, therefore, designated as Streptomyces sp. SL-387. The effects of several carbon and nitrogen sources on the production of the inhibitor were examined. Among them, glucose, galactose, mannose, and xylose were effective as a carbon source and soybean meal, soytone, fish meal, and gluten meal were effective as a nitrogen source. The maximum peak of the inhibitor production in jar fermentor was obtained on the fifth day of culture.

The distribution and activities of hydrolytic enzymes (cellulolyti, hemicellulolytic,pectinolytic and others) in the rumen compartments of Hereford bulls fed 100% alfalfa hay based diets were evaluated. The alfalfa proportion in the diet was gradually increased for two weeks. Whole rumen contents were processed into four fractions: Rumen contents including both the liquid and solid fractions were homogenized and centrifuged, and the supernatant was assayed for enzymes located in whole rumen contents (WRE); rumen contents were centrifuged and the supernatant was assayed for enzymes located in rumen fluids (RFE); feed particles in rumen contents were separated manually, washed with buffer, resuspended in an equal volume of buffer, homogenized and centrifuged and supernatant was assayed for enzymes associated with feed particles (FAE); and rumen microbial cell fraction was separated by centrifugation, suspended in an equal volume of buffer, sonicated and centrifuged, and the supernatant was assayed for enzymes bound with microbial cells (CBE). It was found that polysaccharide-degrading proteins such as $\beta$-1,4-D-endoglucanase, $\beta$-1,4-D-exoglucanase, xylanase and pectinase enzymes were located mainly with the cell bound (CBE) fraction. However, $\beta$-D-glucosidase, $\beta$-D-fucosidase, acetylesterase, and $\alpha$-L-arabinofuranosidase were located in the rumen fluids (RFE) fraction. Protease activity distributions were 37.7, 22.1 and 40.2%, and amylase activity distributions were 51.6, 18.2 and 30.2% for the RFE, FAE and CBE fractions, respectively. These results indicated that protease is located mainly in rumen fluid and with microbial cells, whereas amylase was located mainly in the rumen fluid.

Dietary fiber is an inevitable component in pig diets. In non-ruminants, it may influence many physiological processes in the gastrointestinal tract (GIT) such as transit time as well as nutrient digestion and absorption. Moreover, dietary fiber is also the main substrate of intestinal bacteria. The bacterial community structure is largely susceptible to changes in the fiber content of a pig's diet. Indeed, bacterial composition in the lower GIT will adapt to the supply of high levels of dietary fiber by increased growth of bacteria with cellulolytic, pectinolytic and hemicellulolytic activities such as Ruminococcus spp., Bacteroides spp. and Clostridium spp. Furthermore, there is growing evidence for growth promotion of beneficial bacteria, such as lactobacilli and bifidobacteria, by certain types of dietary fiber in the small intestine of pigs. Studies in rats have shown that both phosphorus (P) and calcium (Ca) play an important role in the fermentative activity and growth of the intestinal microbiota. This can be attributed to the significance of P for the bacterial cell metabolism and to the buffering functions of Ca-phosphate in intestinal digesta. Moreover, under P deficient conditions, ruminal NDF degradation as well as VFA and bacterial ATP production are reduced. Similar studies in pigs are scarce but there is some evidence that dietary fiber may influence the ileal and fecal P digestibility as well as P disappearance in the large intestine, probably due to microbial P requirement for fermentation. On the other hand, fermentation of dietary fiber may improve the availability of minerals such as P and Ca which can be subsequently absorbed and/or utilized by the microbiota of the pig's large intestine.

당근의 가열처리 시 발생하는 경도 감소를 줄이기를 위해 당근에 존재하는 pectmesterase(PE)와 polygalacturonase(PG)의 특성을 조사하고 실제 당근에서의 예비 열처리 조건을 구하여 비교하고자 하였다. 당근에서 추룰한 초효소의 최적 pH는 PE가 7.0, PG가 5.0이었으며, 최적 NaCl은 PE가 0.15 M, PG가 0.10 M이었다. PE의 최적온도는 $50^{\circ}C$. PG가 $70^{\circ}C$이었으며 PE와 PG의 Z-value는 각각 $8.76^{\circ}C과\;6.67^{\circ}C$로 나타나 PE가 PG보다 활성 최적온도는 낮으나 열에는 안정적인 것을 알 수 있었다. 당근의 예비 열처리 조건은 먼저 예비열처리 온도($50~70^{\circ}C$)와 시간(5~60 min)별로 달리 처리한 후 $100^{\circ}C$에서 10 min 동안 가열하여 경도변화를 알아본 결과 $55^{\circ}C$로 60 min 동안 열처리한 것이 가장 높은 경도를 나타내었다. 따라서, $55^{\circ}C$(60 min)로 고정한 후 경도에 영향을 미치는 $CaCl_2$, NaCl, pH의 효과를 조사하였다. 그 결과 당근의 예비열처리 조건은 0.03 M $CaCl_2$, NaCl, pH 7.0으로 $55^{\circ}C$에서 60 min 동안 열처리하는 것이 최적으로 나타났다. 본 결과의 당근 예비열처리 조건은 PE의 활성과 PG의 억제조건에 상당히 일치하였다.
