13. Purification of alpha-galactosidase from seeds of Sesbania marginata
Alpha-galactosidase taken from a raw extract of Sesbania marginata legume seeds was purified by partitioning in aqueous two-phase systems (ATPS). Initially, galactomannan/dextran 2,000,000 systems were used for the purification, and the partition coefficients of alpha -galactosidase varied from 1.5 to 4.0. However, mass transport in these systems was poor du

14. Purification and characterization of two alpha-galactosidases associated with catabolism of guar gum and other alpha-galactosides by Bacteroides ovatus.
When Bacteroides ovatus is grown on guar gum, a galactomannan, it produces alpha-galactosidase I which is different from alpha-galactosidase II which it produces when grown on galactose, melibiose, raffinose, or stachyose. We have purified both of these enzymes to apparent homogeneity. Both enzymes appear to be trimers and have similar pH optima (5.9 to 6.4

15. A Bacteroides ovatus chromosomal locus which contains an alpha-galactosidase gene may be important for colonization of the gastrointestinal tract.
An alpha-galactosidase gene has been cloned from the human colonic Bacteroides species Bacteroides ovatus 0038. This alpha-galactosidase appears to be distinct from two previously characterized alpha-galactosidases, I and II, from the same strain and has been designated alpha-galactosidase III. Partially purified alpha-galactosidase III from Escherichia coli

16. Molecular basis of beta-galactosidase alpha-complementation.
In previous studies, a cyanogen bromide peptide derived from amino-acid residues 3-92 of beta-galactosidase (EC 3.2.1.23; beta-D-galactoside galactohydrolase) was shown to have alpha-donor activity in intracistronic alpha-complementation. We have now isolated the defective beta-galactosidase alpha-acceptor protein from the deletion mutant strain M15 of Esche

17. Heterozygote detection in angiokeratoma corporis diffusum (Anderson-Fabry disease). Studies on plasma, leucocytes, and hair follicles.
Heterozygote detection for angiokeratoma corporis diffusum (Anderson-Fabry disease, ACD), an X-linked disorder of glycosphingolipid metabolism was examined using alpha-galactosidase activity, an alpha-galactosidase/beta-galactosidase activity ratios (alpha/beta ratio) in leucocytes, plasma, and hair follicles; For leucocytes, 22 obligate heterozygotes, 25 su

18. Comparison of cell wall proteins of Saccharomyces cerevisiae as anchors for cell surface expression of heterologous proteins.
The carboxyl-terminal regions of five cell wall proteins (Cwp1p, Cwp2p, Ag alpha 1p, Tip1p, and Flo1p) and three potential cell wall proteins (Sed1p, YCR89w, and Tir1p) all proved capable of immobilizing alpha-galactosidase in the cell wall of Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The fraction of the total amount of fusion protein that was localized to the cell wall var

19. Comparative study on the production of guar alpha-galactosidase by Saccharomyces cerevisiae SU50B and Hansenula polymorpha 8/2 in continuous cultures.
Saccharomyces cerevisiae SU50B and Hansenula polymorpha 8/2, both carrying a multicopy integrated guar alpha-galactosidase, have been cultivated in continuous cultures, using various mixtures of carbon sources and cultivation conditions. Both S. cerevisiae SU50B and H. polymorpha 8/2 are stable and produce high levels of extracellular alpha-galactosidase in

20. Conditions of formation, purification, and characterization of an alpha-galactosidase of Trichoderma reesei RUT C-30.
Trichoderma reesei RUT C-30 formed an extracellular alpha-galactosidase when it was grown in a batch culture containing lactose or locust bean gum as a carbon source. Short-chain alpha-galactosides (melibiose, raffinose, stachyose), as well as the monosaccharides galactose, dulcitol, arabinose, and arabitol, also induced alpha-galactosidase activity both whe

21. Editing of human alpha-galactosidase RNA resulting in a pyrimidine to purine conversion.
During a study of the gene coding for alpha-galactosidase (EC 3.2.1.22), the lysosomal enzyme deficient in Fabry's disease, RT-PCR amplification of alpha-galactosidase mRNAs obtained from three different tissues isolated from males revealed a substantial number of clones with a U to A conversion at the nucleotide position 1187. Such a modification of the cod

22. Secretion of the alpha-galactosidase from Cyamopsis tetragonoloba (guar) by Bacillus subtilis.
A fusion of DNA sequences encoding the SPO2 promoter, the alpha-amylase signal sequence from Bacillus amyloliquefaciens, and the mature part of the alpha-galactosidase from Cyamopsis tetragonoloba (guar) was constructed on a Bacillus subtilis multicopy vector. Bacillus cells of the protease-deficient strain DB104 harboring this vector produced and secreted t

23. Purification of glycoside hydrolases from Bacteroides fragilis.
Six glycoside hydrolases in the culture medium of Bacteroides fragilis--alpha-glucosidase, beta-glucosidase, alpha-galactosidase, beta-galactosidase, beta-N-acetylglucosaminidase, and alpha-L-fucosidase-were systematically purified by ammonium sulfate precipitation, gel filtration chromatography, and density gradient isoelectric focusing. The isoelectric foc

24. Genetic co-regulation of galactose and melibiose utilization in Saccharomyces.
The gal3 mutation of Saccharomyces, which is associated with an impairment in the utilization of galactose, has been shown to be pleiotropic, causing similar impairments in the utilization of melibiose and maltose. Milibiose utilization and alpha-galactosidase production are directly controlled by the galactose regulatory elements i, c, and GAL4. The ferment
