ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A novel .alpha.-1,6-glucosidase having the following properties: (1) Action: The enzyme acts on an .alpha.-1,6- glucoside bond to produce linear amylose; (2) Substrate specificity: The enzyme has the following relative activity to polysac- charides: Image (3) Km value and Vmax to pullulan: The enzyme has Km value of 0.14 mg/ml and Vmax of 70.0 µmol/min/mg protein; (4) Optimum pH: 5.0 to 5.5; (5) pH stability: The enzyme is stable in the pH range of 4.5 to 6.5 for 30 minutes at 40°C and in the pH range of 5.0 to 6.0 for 30 minutes at 50°C; (6) Optimum temperature: Approximately 55°C; (7) Thermal stability: Treatment at pH 4.5 for 30 minutes at different temperatures indicates that the enzyme retained 80% of the initial activity at 40°C and 10% thereof at 60°C; (8) Influence of inhibitor: The enzyme is inhibited by at least 70% by p-chloro- mercuribenzoic acid or sodium dodecylsulfate, but is not inhibited by o-phenanthroline or potassium ferricyanide; (9) Influence of metal salts: The enzyme is negligibly affected by Ni2+, Ba2+, Zn2+, Cd2+ or Mn2+; is inhibited by Fe3+; and loses activity in the presence of Hg2+ or Ag2+ ; and (10) Molecular weight; About 95,500 (measured by SDS electrophoresis).
