Abstract excerpt
It was recently demonstrated that endo-N-acetyl-beta-D-glucosaminidases (ENGase) acting on N-glycosylproteins are produced by myxobacteria. In this study, it was shown that the secretion of ENGase during vegetative growth of Myxococcus xanthus was cell-density-dependent. The activity produced per cell increased up to 6 x 10(8) cells/ml and stabilized thereafter (maximum level). Two of the developmental mutants...
