Abstract
The cellobiose oxidizing enzyme of the newly isolated cellulolytic bac terium Cytophaga sp. LX-7 was produced extracellularly when grown on c ellulose or other saccharides, which was previously noted only in fung i. The enzyme could use not only cellobiose, maltose, glucose and othe r saccharides but also cellulose as substrates, and use dichlorophenol indophenol and oxygen as electron accepters.
