Studies on the Vibrio cholerae mucinase complex. I: Enzymic activities associated with the complex

Mucinase enzymes were isolated and partially purified from the culture fluid of Vibrio cholerae grown in proteose peptone-colostrum medium. The mucinase complex contained neuraminidase, endo-beta-N-acetylhexosaminidase, nicotinamide-adenine-dinucleotidase and proteinases. Traces of phospholipase act...

More Information
Summary:Mucinase enzymes were isolated and partially purified from the culture fluid of Vibrio cholerae grown in proteose peptone-colostrum medium. The mucinase complex contained neuraminidase, endo-beta-N-acetylhexosaminidase, nicotinamide-adenine-dinucleotidase and proteinases. Traces of phospholipase activity were detected but the complex lacked aldolase activity.
