Lipolytic activity copurified with the outer membrane of Serratia marcescens.
Lipase, nuclease, and protease activities could be shown primarily with the purified outer membrane fraction from Serratia marcescens. These activities increased and decreased in the different compartments dependent on the growth phase of the cell culture. Penicillin-hydrolyzing activity was exclusively demonstrated with the outer membrane fraction.
