Purification and characterization of cellobiose dehydrogenase from the plant pathogen Sclerotium (Athelia) rolfsii
Article Abstract:
Cellobiose dehydrogenase from the phytopathogenic fungus Sclerotium (Athelia) rolfsii is a 101 kDa monomer with one heme b and one FAD cofactor per molecule. Cellobiose and cellooligosaccharides are the preferred substrate but it can also oxidize beta-lactose, thiocellobiose, and xylobiose.

Purification and characterization of pyranose oxidase from the white rot fungus Trametes multicolor
Article Abstract:
The pyranose oxidase from Trametes multicolor probably provides hydrogen peroxide to ligninolytic peroxidases. The enzyme oxidizes aldopyranoses and reduces quinones.

Induction of mannanase, xylanase, and endoglucanase activities in Sclerotium rolfsii
Article Abstract:
Noninduced, resting mycelia were incubated with a number of mono-, oligo- and polysaccharides to study the induction of mannanase, xylanase and endoglucanase synthesis in Sclerotium rolfsii. Synthesis of mannanase, xylanase and endoglucanase always occurred concomitantly and could not be separated by selecting an appropriate inducer. Various inducing carbohydrates promoted the excretion of multiple isoforms of endoglycanases, whereas enhanced xylanase and endoglucanase formation was dependent on the presence of suitable inducers.
