摘要
The fungus Gongronella butleri USDB 0201 was grown on sweet potato pieces supplemented with mineral and urea solution. Mycelia were harvested after 7 days of cultivation. Chitosan in the fungal cell wall exists in two forms, free chitosan and chitosan bounded to beta-glucan. The linkage between chitosan and beta-glucan in the chitosan-glucan complex (CGC) was successfully cleaved using a heat stable alpha-amylase. The resultant chitosan and beta-glucan polymeric moieties were characterized. Data from elementary analysis, IR and C-13 NMR spectroscopy confirmed that all intramolecular glycosidic linkages in either chitosan or glucan polymeric moieties are in the beta-configuration. Data from specific enzymatic degradation of the CGC obtained from different treatments and reducing sugar analysis indicate that chitosan and glucan are linked by an intermolecular alpha-1,4 glycosidic bond. These evidences supported to prove the beta-linked chitosan and P-linked glucan are linked with alpha-1,4 glycosidic bond. However heat stable alpha-amylase enzyme could not cleave the CGC completely. Therefore high yield with pure chitosan could be obtained from the cell wall of fungus G. butleri USDB 0201 by Termamyl enzyme treatment. (c) 2007 Elsevier Inc. All fights reserved.
