Abstract

Pholiota nameko polysaccharide (PNPS-1) has been isolated and purified by enzyme hydrolysis, hot water extraction, ethanol precipitation, ion-exchange chromatography and gel-filtration column chromatography. The inhibition of bovine pancreas ribonuclease (RNase A) by PNPS-1 has been studied to elucidate the mechanism responsible for the decreased activity. PNPS-1 was effective in a linear mixed-type inhibition as suggested from the Lineweaver–Burk plot, Dixon plot and their replots. The values of K i and αK i were estimated as 299.92 and 545.71 μM, respectively. The αK i was greater than K i indicating that noncompetitive inhibition was predominant over competitive inhibition.
