Description An extracellular hemicellulase from a soil fungus (Fusarium sp.) grown on a medium containing groundnut hemicellulose B was purified 76-fold by ammonium sulphate fractionation, chromatography on DEAE-cellulose, and gel filtration on Sephadex G-100. It was found to be homogeneous by disc-gel electrophoresis at pH 8. It showed optimal activity at pH 5.6 and 37°. It was observed that groundnut and sesame hemicellulose B were degraded considerably (~80 and 58%, respectively) by the purified hemicellulase, whereas glucomannan and xylan from groundnut were comparatively poorly hydrolysed (~30–40%).
