Abstract
A comparison was made of exo-α-glucanases with α-glucosidases, and of exo-β1 → 3-glucanases with β-glucosidases to establish criteria for their characterization. Dimers, trimers, and tetramers of glucose are substrates for both exo-glucanases and glucosidases. Exo-glucanases act more rapidly on the longer oligomers, glucosidases on the shorter. Exo-glucanases act with inversion of configuration, glucosidases with retention. Other differences are found in transfer activity, in degree of specificity, and in susceptibility to various inhibitors.
