15N- and 13C-NMR investigations of glucose oxidase from Aspergillus niger

Purification and Properties of the Glucose Oxidase from Aspergillus Niger.

Glucose oxidase (/3-n-glucose : 02 oxidoreductase, EC 1.1.3.4) has been highly purified from the extracts of three fungi, Penicillium not&urn (1, 2), Penicillium amagasakiense (3, 4), and Aspergillus niger (5, 6). It has also been identified and sometimes partially purified from a number of other sources. Some of these sources are reviewed by Schepartz and Subers (7). Recently Pazur and Kleppe ...

Irreversible thermal denaturation of Glucose oxidase from Aspergillus niger

Localization of Glucose Oxidase and Catalase Activities in Aspergillus niger.

The subcellular localization of glucose oxidase (EC 1.1.3.4) in Aspergillus niger N400 (CBS 120.49) was investigated by (immuno)cytochemical methods. By these methods, the bulk of the enzyme was found to be localized in the cell wall. In addition, four different catalases (EC 1.11.1.6) were demonstrated by nondenaturing polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of crude extracts of induced and nonindu...

Glucose oxidase from Aspergillus niger: Production, characterization and immobilization for glucose oxidation

Glucose oxidase (GOx), a flavoenzyme, from Aspergillus niger was produced, purified and immobilized for glucose oxidation. Maximum activities of 0.6 and 0.31U mg fungus dry weight were obtained as intracellular and extracellular respectively. Optimal production (4000 IU/L) was achieved when basal salt medium was supplemented with sucrose (7.5%), peptone (1.5%) phosphorus (0.2%) and MgSO4 (0.2%)...

Thermal Characterization of Purified Glucose Oxidase from A Newly Isolated Aspergillus Niger UAF-1

An intracellular glucose oxidase was isolated from the mycelium extract of a locally isolated strain of Aspergillus niger UAF-1. The enzyme was purified to a yield of 28.43% and specific activity of 135 U mg(-1) through ammonium sulfate precipitation, anion exchange and gel filtration chromatography. The enzyme showed high affinity for D-glucose with a Km value of 2.56 mM. The enzyme exhibited ...
