Cellulolytic Enzymes in Culture Filtrates of Free

Abstract

Summary: During growth in a liquid culture containing a single soluble or an insoluble cellulosic carbon source, released cellulolytic enzymes into the medium. These enzymes were separated by gel filtration and ion-exchange chromatography into seven components, three of high and four of low molecular weight. One of the components had the character of a C cellulase. When the components were combined they released more reducing sugars from cellulosic substrates than when used singly.
