Abstract
A Monilia sp. produced an inducible intracellular β-d-glucosidase (IG-2) which is the nascent form of the extracellular enzyme (EG-1) prior to its secretion into the extracellular medium. The other intracellular β-d-glucosidase (IG-1) produced was a constitutive enzyme. Highest yields of the inducible β-d-glucosidase resulted when Monilia sp. was grown on insoluble cellulose. Cellobiose and d-glucose appeared to repress β-d-glucosidase formation at high substrate levels and synthesis occurred only once the levels of these sugars in the medium were nearly depleted.
