title: [Carbohydrate component of Penicillium funiculosum dextranase].
abstract: The carbohydrate composition of dextranase from Penicillium funiculosum 15, as well as the composition of products of dextran deep hydrolysis by the enzyme were studied. The products are normally used to stabilize the enzyme during its purification. Using the methods available, it was possible to identify only part of strongly bound (adsorbed) carbohydrates. It was found that dextranase from Pen. funiculosum 15 contained two types of carbohydrates strongly bound with protein: adsorbed and covalently bound carbohydrates. A procedure allowing a complete separation of adsorbed carbohydrates was developed. The procedure is based on the use of stabilizing additives of readily separable carbohydrates. The enzyme, which is shown by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis in the presence of Na-dodecyl sulfate and beta-mercaptoethanol to be homogeneous, consists of 313 amino acid residues, 3 glucosamine residues and residues of mannose, galactose and fucose in the ratio 6:2:1.
