Abstract
In the first part of this paper different microbial enzyme systems able to hydrolyze the true amide function are reviewed, then some enzyme systems are described in detail: aminopeptidases, amidases of Aspergillus nidulans and of Pseudomonas aeruginosa.Following consideration of analytical techniques (NMR, GLC, TLC, colorimetric assay of the ammonium ion) useful in the study of amidases, the second part of the paper deals with the amidases of Brevibacterium sp. R312 and their applications. Selection conditions of the strain, demonstrations of the different amidase systems, and complete studies of the L-α-aminoamidase and the wide spectrum amidase are described. Some examples of applications and future developments are also given.
