Abstract:
An endo-beta-1,4-D-galactanase was purified 1735-fold from a commercial enzyme preparation of Aspergillus niger. The endogalactanase was homogeneous by SDS-PAGE, having an apparent molecular weight of 32,000. It specifically hydrolyzed beta-1,4-D-galactan, and is shown to be capable of releasing galactosyl oligomers and galactose from the soybean pectic polysaccharides.
