The crude extracellular extract of Aspergillus niger (syn A. ficuum) NRRL 3135 contains glucoamylase (exo-1,4-alpha-D-glucanohydrolase, EC 3.2.1.2). The enzyme, a glycoprotein, was purified 7-fold by ion-exchange chromatography, chromatofocusing, and conconavalin A affinity chromatography. The molecular weight of the enzyme was estimated to be 90 kDa by SDS-PAGE and gel permeation chromatography. The pI of the enzyme was 3.4. The temperature optimum of the enzyme was 60 degrees C and the pH optimum was 5.0. The Vmax values for soluble starch, maltose, maltotriose, maltotretraose, maltopentaose, and isomaltose were 55.2, 11.7, 32.3, 47.8, 59.2, 12.5 nKat glucose/sec, respectively and the Km values for the same substrates were 0.09%, 0.67 mM, 0.76 mM, 0.76 mM, 0.68 mM, and 122.01 mM, respectively.
