Analysis of the enzymatic activity of mycelial and yeast phases of Penicillium marneffei
The cell-associated and extracellular enzymatic activities were examined in a total of 10 Penicillium marneffei isolates. Both mycelia and yeast expressed alkaline phosphatase, acid phosphatase and naphthol-AS-BI-phosphohydrolase activities, whereas a variety of other enzyme activities, including tr...

| Summary: | The cell-associated and extracellular enzymatic activities were examined in a total of 10 Penicillium marneffei isolates. Both mycelia and yeast expressed alkaline phosphatase, acid phosphatase and naphthol-AS-BI-phosphohydrolase activities, whereas a variety of other enzyme activities, including trypsin, chymotrypsin and alpha-fucosidase were absent. There was some inter-isolate variation in both mycelia and yeast in the activities of other enzymes such as esterases and galactosidases. Enzyme activities did not change significantly over the course of culturing in three representative isolates. |
