Biotin deficiency resulted in an increased growth rate of Aspergillus nidulans. The activities of hexokinase and aldolase were not much changed during the growth cycle, but activities of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase and NADP-linked glutamate dehydrogenase increased significantly during the exponential phase. This change was remarkable during biotin deficiency. In contrast to the higher growth rate and respiration rate during biotin deficiency the activities of NAD(P)H oxidoreductases were low. An inverse relationship between the activity of tyrosinase and melanin content was observed. A role of the DOPA-DOPA-quinone system in maintaining culture growth is suggested.

Beagle serum proteins were separated by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE) and the electrophoretograms were examined by one- and two-dimensional analyses with a laser densitometer. In order from the anodic side of the PAGE pattern, pre-albumin, hexokinase, tyrosinase, alkaline phosphatase, urease, and aldehyde dehydrogenase were assumed to be present based on Rf and Mw. Serum albumin, lactate dehydrogenase, and catalase appeared to be present based on a comparison of their electrophoretic mobility with that of protein standards of known Mw. Verification of beagle serum protein fractions by immunofixation electrophoresis and western blotting electrophoresis, with rabbit anti-human serum, indicated alpha 1-antitrypsin, albumin, haptoglobin, ceruloplasmin, C3c complement, IgG, and IgA. Serum protein fraction values (%) obtained by one- and two-dimensional analyses were similar.

Enzymes were investigated for their occurrence in the cell wall fraction (4,000 g sediment of the homogenate) of Agaricus bisporus sporocarps. Besides the markers malate dehydrogenase (MalDH), hexokinase (HK) and ATPase, the range of entities studied included gamma-glutamyl transferase (gamma-GT), mannitol dehydrogenase (MDH), phenoloxidase, chitin and beta-1,3-glucan synthases (ChS, beta-GS), chitinase, beta-N-acetylhexosaminidase (HexNAc'ase) and beta-glucanase. Using the extractability in dilute buffer, digitonin and NaCl at high ionic strength as the operational criteria, four categories (I-IV) of enzyme-wall associations could be discerned: category I encompasses enzymes which are artefactually present (i.e. contaminants); category II, enzymes that are hydrophobically bound (which may or may not be genuinely wall-associated), III includes enzymes that are ionically bound and IV, enzymes whose bonding to the wall is in all probability covalent. The same enzyme entity may have representatives in more than one category, e.g. ChS and beta-GS (I, II, IV), phenolase (I, II, III, IV), beta-glucanase, chitinase and HexNAc'ase (I, IV). It is thought that the categorization presented could be of general applicability in fungi as well as in higher plants to specify enzyme-wall associations in a straightforward, comparable manner, thus avoiding some of the ambiguous terms prevailing in the literature, such as "weakly", "strongly" or "tightly" wall bound. The results are discussed in more detail for several of the more economically important enzymes studied.
