AI Article Synopsis
- Two enzymes, chitinase and laminarinase, from the thermophilic fungus Paecilomyces varioti were used to extract protoplasts from another thermophilic fungus, Malbranchea sulfurea.
- The success rate of protoplast regeneration was found to be 35%.
- This regeneration rate significantly outperformed results obtained through the use of commercial lytic enzymes.
Article Abstract
Two thermostable enzymes produced by the thermophilic fungus Paecilomyces varioti, a chitinase and laminarinase, were used to isolate protoplasts of a thermophilic fungus, Malbranchea sulfurea. The frequency of protoplast regeneration observed (35%) was considerably higher than that obtained using commercial lytic enzymes.
