title: [Production of beta-xylosidase by the yeast Cryptococcus podzolicus].
abstract: In studying the beta-xylosidase production by yeast Cryptococcus podzolicus (Basidiomycetes), it was shown to be an inducible secretory enzyme. Xylooligosaccharides generated from xylan and methyl beta-xyloside were found to induce the beta-xylosidase synthesis. The enzyme activity in the medium containing xylan or methyl beta-xyloside was 1.0 and 1.5 U/ml, respectively; this production level is similar to that achievable at the beta-xylosidase production by mycelial fungi.
