Abstract
Extracellular proteolytic activities were detected in Phytomonas françai culture supernatant. A 67-kDa enzyme was purified by ammonium sulfate precipitation and gel filtration in a HPLC system. This proteinase was optimally active at 28 degrees C and pH 5.0; and the use of proteolytic inhibitors indicated that it belongs to the metalloproteinase class. This is the first report on the purification of an extracellular metalloproteinase from a Phytomonas species.Entities:
