The effect of ~-glucosidase on three assays for cellulolytic enzymes, i.e. the activities against dyed Avicel, hydroxyethylcellulose (HEC) and filter paper (FPU), was studied using cellulase enzyme derived from Trichoderma ree8ei VTT-D-80133. The dyed Avlce] and HEC assays were only slightly affect

✦ Synopsis
H. grisea produced an extracellular β-glucosidase (EC 3.2.1.21) at high activity in media supplemented with carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) or cellobiose. Cellobiose-induced β-glucosidase was insensitive to glucose repression whereas that of CMC-supplemented cultures was partially repressed. Molecular sieving revealed three main active components (Mr 50, 128 and 240 kDa). Glucose competitively inhibited β-glucosidase activities with Ki values of 0.9MM and 3.3MM (extracellular) and 10.2MM and 22.6MM (cytosolic), induced in the presence of CMC or cellobiose respectively.

## Abstract The cell‐associated β‐glucosidase activity of __Thermomonospora fusca__, strain YX, showed both PNPGase and cellobiase activities. The cellobiase activity was found by HPLC assay to have very low product inhibition, whereas the PNPGase activity was more significantly inhibited. Of the v
The synthesis of pectinase is investigated using six species of Aspergillus, with five media differing either in their carbon sources or level of carbon source(s). Five of the six species used, synthesized appreciable amounts of pectinase in the media containing sugars. Pectinase synthesis was highe
The effect of the carbon source succinate on pyrimidine synthesis in the pathogen Burkholderia cepacia ATCC 25416 was investigated. The five de novo pathway enzyme activities of pyrimidine biosynthesis in B. cepacia were shown to be affected when ATCC 25416 cells were grown in the presence of uracil
