[Effect of growth medium composition of glucoamylase and glycosyltransferase activity of Endomyces fibuliger].
Production of glucoamylase and glycosyltransferase by Endomyces fibuliger was found to depend on sources of carbon and nitrogen nutrition. Starch at a concentration above 0.5% in the medium stimulated biosynthesis of glycosyltransferase but inhibited production of glucoamylase by End. fibuliger 20-9. The rate of growth of the micro-organism increased by a factor of 3.3 with an increase of starch concentration from 0.5 to 6%. Synthesis of glycosyltransferase was repressed by glucose, lactose, sucrose and maltose. Synthesis of glucoamylase was repressed by lactose, sorbose and galactose. Synthesis of glycosyltransferase was stimulated by xylose, sorbose and galactose. Production of glucoamylase was stimulated by xylose and arabinose. Growth of the culture and synthesis of glucoamylase and maltase in the cultural broth were stimulated by an increase in the concentration of maize extract. Biosynthesis of glucoamylase and glycosyltransferase was stimulated by NH4H2PO4.
