摘要
Consistent with its precloning characterization from the cellulolytic Bacillus sp., beta-1,4-endoglucanase purified from the recombinant E. coli exhibited maximum activity at 60A degrees C and pH 7.0. It was highly specific for CMC hydrolysis, with stability up to 70A degrees C and over a pH range of 6.0-8.0. The K (m) and V (max) values for CMCase activity of the enzyme were 4.1 mg/ml and 25 mu mole/ml min(-1), respectively. The purified enzyme was a monomer of 65 kDa, as determined by SDS-PAGE. The presence of sucrose and IPTG in fermentation media increased the endoglucanase activity of the recombinant enzyme to 5.2-folds as compared with that of the actual one.
