Konjac-mannanase from the Tubers of Amorphophallus konjac C. Koch

Abstract: A crude enzyme preparation hydrolyzing konjac mannan was extracted from germinating konjac tubers, and purified by chromatography with DEAE-cellulose and alkali-swollen cellulose, and by gel-filtration on Sephadex G-100. The purified enzyme preparation showed

“…The present pI is higher than that of other sources like actinomycetes and fungi [16] where it was reported to be 3.4 and 4.1. The determined K m (0.91%) and V mx (2935 U mg 3I ) for GM of the present mannanase were higher than those of other L-mannanases [6,8,9]. The enzyme was strongly inhibited by Hg P , Cr P , Mn P , Ag P , Cu P .…”

“…Recently, more attention has been focused on ex-traction and utilization of L-mannanases from various sources including plants [6,7], bacteria [8^13], fungi [14^17], actinomycetes [18] and even molluscs [19]. Bacterial sources are preferred when large amounts of enzyme are required.…”

“…The present p I is higher than that of other sources like actinomycetes and fungi [16] where it was reported to be 3.4 and 4.1. The determined K m (0.91%) and V max (2935 U mg −1 ) for GM of the present mannanase were higher than those of other β‐mannanases [6, 8, 9]. The enzyme was strongly inhibited by Hg 2+ , Cr 2+ , Mn 2+ , Ag 2+ , Cu 2+ .…”

“…Hydrolysis of locust bean gum by 100 mM CoCl 2 treated mannanase S1 yielded galactose and unknown compounds which moved further than mannotriose and mannotetraose on TLC. Sugiyama et al 35 reported that hydrolysis of mannan can result in various kinds of unknown oligosaccharides and unknown substances. These unknown compounds may be mannooligosaccharides carrying side chains that can result from transferase activity of the hydrolase.…”
