PERSPECTIVE PRODUCERS OF CELLULASES AMONG HIGHER BASIDIOMYCETES
Donetsk National University
Cellulase activity in cultural filtrate of 61 strains of basidiomycetes that belongs to 18 species Schizophyllum, Trichaptum, Irpex, Fomes, Trametes (=Coriolus), Pleurotus, Daedaleopsis, Lepista, Inonotus, Stereum, Heterobasidion, Auricularia, Chondrostereum, Phellinus, Hirschioporus and Flammulina was analyzed. Difference between cellulases activity and that of the complex composition of cellulolytic enzyme basidiomycetes for different strains of the same species was established. At an early stage of the substrate development basidiomycetes synthesize highly active endoglucanase. Basidiomycetes are active cellulase producers and are perspective objects for biotechnology of cellulolytic enzymes.
Key words: basidiomycetes, cellulolytic enzymes, cultural liquid, endoglucanase, β-glucosidase, biotechnology of cellulases.
