Mannan-hydrolyzing enzymes of yeasts and yeast-like organisms

Abstract
The ability to degrade mannan in the yeastSaccharomyces cerevisiae, i.e. the ability to produce an enzyme of the α-mannosidase type was tested in 57 representatives of various genera and species of yeasts and yeast-like organisms. Their growth was simultaneously monitored on soluble mannan and on 4-nitrophenyl-α-D-mannopyranoside. The majority of strains produced α-mannosidase (EC 3.2.1.24).
