TL;DR: An extracellular amyloglucosidase of Termitomyces clypeatus which was accumulated intracellularly in absence of Krebs cycle acids in dextrin medium, remained mostly inside the plasma membrane.
Abstract: An extracellular amyloglucosidase (56 kDa) of Termitomyces clypeatus which was accumulated intracellularly in absence of Krebs cycle acids in dextrin medium, remained mostly inside the plasma membrane. The enzyme was localised in mycelial vacuoles as a sucrase-amyloglucosidase aggregate. The intracellular pool contained both the free sucrase and the aggregate, while vacuoles contained only aggregate without any free enzyme. The aggregate, partially purified to PAGE homogeneity, contained amyloglucosidase and sucrase in the ratio of 1:1. A cellular regulation, influenced by the presence of Krebs cycle acids, was indicated to be present at the level of exocytosis of vacuolar enzyme.
