Abstract
Background In this study, wild-type fungal isolates, producing highly effective cellulolytic enzymes were selected for bioconversion of residues and waste from agriculture and rational utilization of energy resources for food production. Methods We screened wild-type fungal isolates of Aspergillus, Penicillium, and Trichoderma with an enhanced ability to produce extracellular cellulase. We carried out solid-state fermentation on a medium of agricultural waste products, including wheat bran, beet peels, and cotton oil cake, as well as additional sources of nitrogen and mineral elements. Enzyme production by the fungal isolates was detected within 14 days of cultivation. Results Of 17 strains of Trichoderma, Aspergillus, and Penicillium tested, we identified Penicillium strain K-2-25 and Trichoderma lignorium strain T-22 to have high cellulolytic activity. K-2-25 demonstrated the highest activity after 48 hours of cultivation. T-22 also showed significant cellulolytic activity. Penicillium strain K-2-25 showed cellulolytic activity for 98–270 hours during cultivation, and the amount of reduced glucose was 945 mg. T. lignorium T-22 was the second most active strain, with glucose reduction of 835 mg. Conclusion The strains K-2-25 and T-22 will are be recommended for biotechnological applications, especially for bioconversion of poor hardly decomposable vegetable waste products, such as like straw, into useful biomass.

Abstract
A beta-glucosidase (EC 3.2.1.21) from the fungus Aspergillus terreus was purified to homogeneity as indicated by disc acrylamide gel electrophoresis. Optimal activity was observed at pH 4.8 and 50 degrees C. The beta-glucosidase had K(m) values of 0.78 and 0.40 mM for p-nitrophenyl-beta-d-glucopyranoside and cellobiose, respectively. Glucose was a competitive inhibitor, with a K(i) of 3.5 mM when p-nitrophenyl-beta-d-glucopyranoside was used as the substrate. The specific activity of the enzyme was found to be 210 IU and 215 U per mg of protein on p-nitrophenyl-beta-d-glucopyranoside and cellobiose substrates, respectively. Cations, proteases, and enzyme inhibitors had little or no effect on the enzyme activity. The beta-glucosidase was found to be a glycoprotein containing 65% carbohydrate by weight. It had a Stokes radius of 5.9 nm and an approximate molecular weight of 275,000. The affinity and specific activity that the isolated beta-glucosidase exhibited for cellobiose compared favorably with the values obtained for beta-glucosidases from other organisms being studied for use in industrial cellulose saccharification.

Abstract
Much attention has recently been directed to the development and application of online sample preconcentration and microreactions in capillary electrophoresis using selective adsorbents based on chemical or biological specificity. The basic principle involves two interacting chemical or biological systems with high selectivity and affinity for each other. These molecular interactions in nature usually involve noncovalent and reversible chemical processes. Properly bound to a solid support, an "affinity ligand" can selectively adsorb a "target analyte" found in a simple or complex mixture at a wide range of concentrations. As a result, the isolated analyte is enriched and highly purified. When this affinity technique, allowing noncovalent chemical interactions and biochemical reactions to occur, is coupled on-line to high-resolution capillary electrophoresis and mass spectrometry, a powerful tool of chemical and biological information is created. This paper describes the concept of biological recognition and affinity interaction on-line with high-resolution separation, the fabrication of an "analyte concentrator-microreactor", optimization conditions of adsorption and desorption, the coupling to mass spectrometry, and various applications of clinical and pharmaceutical interest.

Abstract
An endo beta-1,4-glucanase (EC 3.2.1.4, 1.4-(1,3;1,4)-beta-D-glucan 4 glucanhydrolase) was purified to apparent homogeneity from culture filtrates of Trichoderma reesei QM 9414. Identity of the protein with endoglucanase I (EG I) was examined by subjecting CNBr fragments of the protein to analysis by plasma desorption mass spectrometry. Seven non-glycosylated fragments, mapped on the eg1 gene sequence, could be identified, hence proving at least 39.4% identity of the amino acid sequence. No sign for microheterogeneity was observed. Purified EG I was used to prepare monoclonal antibodies. 17 stable clones were obtained, of which one--Mab EG 3--was used to analyze several commercial T. reesei cellulase preparations as well as culture filtrates from T. pseudokoningii and T. longibrachiatum for the presence of EG I. Most of them contained immunoreactive material migrating as a prominent 50-55 kDa band on SDS-PAGE, resembling EG I, but in some instances additional lower molecular weight bands were also observed. Cultivation of T. reesei at low pH led to an increase of these lower molecular weight bands. EG I was rather stable against proteolysis by papain in vitro, but after prolonged treatment, immunopositive products of 50 and 45 kDa were produced at the expense of the 55 kDa band. Our monoclonal antibodies failed to react with a low-molecular-weight endoglucanase, which was previously shown to be detectable with polyclonal antiserum against EG I. However, all monoclonals reacted with a 118 kDa protein which is most probably a dimer of EG I. These results are discussed with respect to the occurrence of multiple forms of EG I in T. reesei cellulase preparations.

Abstract
Five cellulase components were identified and purified in one step from Streptomyces strain A20 using electroendosmotic preparative electrophoresis. By this procedure up to 18 mg of protein mixture could be loaded on the column, with an estimated recovery of 60-70% of total activity; activity and protein recovery could be estimated 32% and 47% respectively, if only activity peaks were considered. In comparison to other purification methods, this technique results in high protein recovery and resolution of applied samples.

Abstract
A beta-glucosidase has been purified from culture filtrates of the fungus Trichoderma reesei QM9414 grown on microcrystalline cellulose. The beta-glucosidase was purified using two successive DEAE-Sephadex anion-exchange chromatography steps, followed by SP-Sephadex cation-exchange chromatography and concanavalin-A--agarose chromatography. Evidence for homogeneity is provided by polyacrylamide disc gel electrophoretic patterns, which show a single protein band. Sedimentation equilibrium analysis yielded a molecular mass of 74.6 +/- 2.4 kDa. Sodium dodecyl sulfate/polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis yielded a single protein band with a molecular mass of 81.6 kDa. Thus, the enzyme appears to be a single, monomeric polypeptide. The beta-glucosidase is isoelectric at pH 8.5. The enzyme is rich in basic amino acids and contains few half-cystine and methionine residues. The purified beta-glucosidase contains less than 1% by weight of neutral carbohydrate. The beta-glucosidase catalyzes the hydrolysis of cellobiose, p-nitrophenyl beta-D-glucopyranoside and 4-methylumbelliferyl beta-D-glucopyranoside; the values of V/Km for each substrate were determined to be 2.3 X 10(4), 6.9 X 10(5) and 2.9 X 10(6) M-1 S-1 respectively. The enzyme is optimally active from pH 4.5 to 5.0 and is labile at higher hydrogen ion concentrations. The beta-glucosidase has an unusually high affinity for D-glucose (Ki = 700 microM). Comparison of inhibition constants for cello-oligosaccharides suggests that the substrate-binding region of the beta-glucosidase comprises multiple subsites.

Abstract
Affinity chromatography of a commercial preparation of beta-glucosidase from Aspergillus niger using concanavalin A-Sepharose (CAS) was employed as a means of purifying this glycoprotein. However, mannose (up to 1.08 M) was ineffective as an eluent of this enzyme from CAS, as were several other sugars and their derivatives, including 0.5 M glucose. Also, washing the CAS: beta-glucosidase complex with buffer at pH 3.5 in the absence of MnCl2 and CaCl2 (required to preserve the binding activity of concanavalin A below pH 5.0) did not result in elution of this enzyme. On the contrary, endoglucanase activity present in a crude cellulase complex (A. niger) which bound to CAS could be eluted by mannose (0.5-0.7 M) and was fractionated into at least two components. The CAS: beta-glucosidase complex hydrolyzed cellobiose to glucose and possessed an activity of 2,158 units/g dry CAS. It could be used, therefore, for continuous cellobiose hydrolysis without leakage of enzyme from the support.

Abstract
The properties and enzymic activity of endoglucanases (EC 3.2.1.4) of the fungus Trichoderma reesei were studied by means of immunological methods and by using polyglycosidic substrates. Endoglucanases exist in the culture liquid as a series of immunologically related components. The most active endoglucanase component has an Mr of 43 000 and pI value of 4.0. The most abundant components have a value of pI about 5.0, an Mr of 56 000-67 000 and specific activity only one-fifth of that of the pI-4.0 component. During purification and storage the endoglucanases are spontaneously modified; the relative proportion of components having greater Mr values, more alkaline pI values and lower specific activities is increased. The hexose content of the endoglucanase components is 2-7%. Endoglucanases hydrolyse soluble beta-1,4 glycans. The enzymes described here differ from endoglucanase preparations described previously in not showing activity towards insoluble substrates. The role of endoglucanases in wood hydrolysis is consequently limited to the stage where wood constituents are already in soluble form.
