  • These experiments were conducted to purify the glucoamylase produced by Rhizopus oryzae. Two forms of glucoamylase (GI and GII) from Phizopus oryzae were purified by $(NH_2)_2SO_4$ fractionation, acetone fractionation and successive column chromatography on DEAE-cellulose and CM-cellulose. The specific activities of GI and GII toward soluble starch were 157.6 U/㎎. protein (37.5 fold of crude extract), and 164.7 U/㎎. protein (39.2 fold of curde extract), respectively, and the yields of them were 4.3% and 3.8%, respectively. The two purified enzymes have shown a single band by polyacrylamide disc gel electrophoresis and SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The protein bands of their electrophoresis gel were revealed to have glucoamylase activity by iodine staining and were proved to be glycoprotein by periodic acid Schiff's staining.

  • A ${\alpha}-galactosidase{\;}({\alpha}-D-galactoside$ galactohydrolase; EC 3.2.1.22) was purified from the culture filtrate of Penicillium purpurogenum by DEAE-cellulose column chromatography, gel filtration of Bio gel p-l00, and subsequent SP-Sephadex C-25 chromatography. The final preparation thus obtained showed a single band on polyacrylamide disc-gel and SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The molecular weight and isoelectric point were determined to be 63,000 and pH 4.0 by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and isoelectric focusing, respectively. The galactosidase exhibited maximum activity at pH 4.5 and $55^{\circ}C$, and was stable between pH 2 and 5, and also stable up to $40^{\circ}C$. The enzyme activity was not affected considerably by treatment with other metal compounds except mercuric chloride and silver nitrate. Copra galactomannan was finally hydrolyzed to galactose, mannose and mannobiose through the sequential actions of the purified galactosidase and mannanase from the same strain. The enzyme hydrolyzed melibiose and raffinose, but not lactose.

  • The soluble whole body proteins of meal-worm Ephestia kuhniella, at various developmental stages have been studied by means of acrylamide gel disc electrophoresis. A maximum of eighteen bands were observed in the male of the 6th instar larva and the female of the late pupa. In general, the protein bands increased with the growth of larva, decreased at the prepupal stages, and at the pupal stages they increased again. The possible significance of these observations has been discussed. In addition, comparisons have been made of the protein patterns between the males and females in the developmental stages.

  • Killer toxin from killer yeast fusant FWKS 260 developed by protoplast fusion between the wild killer yeast and alcohol-fermenting yeast was purified by ammonium sulfate fractionation. Amicon PM I0 concentration. Sephadex G-200 and Scphadcx G-75 column chromatography. The purified killer toxin showed a single band by SIX-polyacvlamide gel electrophoresis. The protein part of killer toxin was active site. which was found by treating the proteolytic enzyme such as pronase E and pepsin to killer toxin. The killer toxin was stable at pH 2.0-5.0 and 20$^{\circ}$C. but inactivated with increasing temperature. The molecular weight was determined to be approximately 13.000 according to the results obtained from the SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. It was confirmed that the purified killer toxin is glycoprotein by showing a red single band after st'tining with Schiffs reagent.

  • The biological interpretation of two-dimensional (2D) gel electrophoresis experiments is a key step toward understanding the functions of biological systems. We here present a web-based integrated database, called 2DSpotDB, for the management of proteome data derived from several pathogens. The 2DSpotDB was established as a part of the management of a pathogen proteome project at the Korea National Institute of Health. The goals of the 2DSpotDB implementation are to store and define important pathogen genes, retrieve information obtained by 2D polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and mass spectrometry, and create an integrated system to provide pathogen proteome information for biological scientists. This database currently contains 14 gels and information on 387 protein spots, among which 329 proteins were identified and annotated.

  • A method, based upon the separation of cellular proteins by one-and two-dimensional electrophoresis was used for distinguishing butween Bradyrhizobium japonicum strains and Rhizobium fredii strains. Significant differences in protein pattern of one-dimensional SDS-PAGE vs-ere observed between Rhizobium fredii strains and Bradyrhizobium japonicum strains. The differences in six distinct main lands were observed among total 52 kinds of protein bands. Furthermore, the distribution of proteins in two groups by two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis was very different. The majority of visible proteins of Rhizobium fredii were acidic, whereas those of Bradyrhizobium japonicum were basic. In addition, amino acid composition was analyzed to detect the differences between two groups. No significant differences in amino acid composition were observed between Bradyrhizobium japonicum strains and Rhizobium fredii strains. The results indicate that one-and two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis were useful for identifying rhizobia isolates. One-dimensional SDS-PAGE of rhizobia proteins provided a rapid method for screening a large number of isolates, whereas two-dimensional electrophoresis was more of resolution and easiness for analyzing protein spots.

  • Inulin fructotransferase(depolymerizing)(EC 2.4.1.93)(inulaseII) which converts inulin into di-D-fructofuranose-1,2':2,3'-dianhydride (DFAIII) was purified from Arthrobacter ureafaciens KCTC 3387 using column chromatography on DEAE-Toyopearl 650M and gel filtration of Sephadex G-200. The enzyme was purified 7-fold with a yield of 11% from a culture supernatant. The purified enzyme gave a single band on polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, and the molecular weight of the enzyme was estimated to be 45,000 by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The optimum pH and temperature for the enzyme reaction were pH6.5~7.0 and $55{\circ}C$, respectively. The enzyme was stable within a pH range of 5.0 to 10.6 and up to $60^{\circ}C$. The Km of this enzyme for DFAIII production was 11.9mM. The enzyme was inactivated by $Hg^{2+}$ and after exhaustive digestion of inulin by this enzyme, 1-kestose and nystose were produced in addition of DFAIII.

  • The whole body extract of Lunella coronata coreensis agglutinated nonspecifically human and other animal erythrocytes. A new lectin was purified by the following procedures: 0.15 M NaCl extraction, salt fractionation, gel filtration, anionic and cationic ion exchange column chromatographies. Through these purification procedures, specific activity of LCC-I was increased from 276 to 9714.3 units/mg, And on polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, LCC-I exhibited one major band. A molecular weight of LCC-I was assumed to be 20,000 by sodium dodesyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The purified lectin was relatively stable at various pH and heat. Among the tested sugars, lactose and lactulose inhibited lectin activity at a concentration of 6.25 mM, respectively.

  • One acetolactate synthase isozyme which has Rf value of 0.83 on polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis was purified from Sewatia marcescens ATCC 25419 by ammonium sulfate fractionation, DEAE-Sephacel chromatography, Phenyl-Sepharose chromatography, Sephacryt S-400 gel filtration followed by native gel elution. The native molecular weight of the enzyme was determined to be 531,400 by gel filtration method, and SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis separated the native enzyme into two polypeptides having molecular sizes of 55,000 and 38,900 respectively. In kinetic parameters, $K_m$ value for pyruvate was 2.54 mM, and $V_{max}$ was 21.75 nmoie/min/mg. The enzyme showed maximal activity around pH 8.0 and optimal temperature of the acetolactate formation was $37^{\circ}C$. Feedback inhibition studies indicate that the purified enzyme is rather resistant to branched chain amino acids when compared with acetolactate synthase isozymes of plants or other enterobacteria.
