Abstract:
:Two beta-D-glycosidases have been purified from the digestive juice of Achatina balteata by acetone fractionation, ion exchange chromatography through DEAE-Sephadex A-50, ammonium sulphate fractionation and gel chromatography through Sephadex G-200. The preparations are homogeneous by p/lyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Both enzymes are highly specific for the beta-D-anomeric configuration of the glycosidic linkage. They hydrolyse lactose, cellobiose and synthetic beta-D-galactosides, -glucosides and -fucosides at a pH optimum of 5,2 to 5,6 and are inactive on alpha-glycosides. The hydrolyzed substrates are recognized by the same catalytic site as shown by mutual competition studies between substrates and competitive inhibition observed with aldonolactones and glycopyranoses such as D-galactose, D-glucose and D-fucose. The different substrates are not hydrolyzed at the same rate by the two enzymes. They also differ by their electrophoretic mobility, their behaviour in gel chromatography and their stability towards pH and heat. The most salient property is the important beta-D-fucosidase activity of the two purified enzymes.
