누룩으로부터 전분 분해 활성이 우수한 Rhizopus oryzae 균주의 분리

초록

The amylolytic enzyme activities of nuruks collected or produced in this study were examined. A maximum α-amylase activity of 24,747.1 ± 777.7 units/mg protein was obtained for a nuruk incubated at a relative humidity of 40% at 30℃. A nuruk matured at a relative humidity of 50% at 25℃ showed the highest glucoamylase acitivity. Among the 98 fungal strains isolated from the nuruk exhibiting the highest amylolytic enzyme activities, 26 strains of Aspergillus oryzae and 18 strains of Rhizopus oryzae were identified. Rhizopus oryzae MBF345 showed an α-amylase activity of 36,724.9 ± 10.2 units/mg protein and a glucoamylase activity of 4,911.8 ± 48.1 SP. These values were 1.7-fold and 1.4-fold greater, respectively, than those of the control strain. Strain MBF345 was deposited as KCTC46312 in the Korean Culture Type Collection.
