beta-N-Acetylglucosaminidase [EC 3.2.1.30] from Vibrio alginolyticus H-8 wa
s purified by column chromatography on DEAE-Sepharose FF, phenyl-Sepharose
HP, Superdex 200HR, and Mono Q. The molecular weight of the enzyme was esti
mated by SDS-gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) to be 75 kDa. The pI was 4.6. T
he activity was inhibited by Ag+, Hg2+, iodoacetate, p-chloromercuribenzoat
e, and N-ethylmaleimide.
