Intracellular protein breakdown in thermophilic and mesophilic fungi.


ABSTRACT: 1. The rate of protein breakdown was determined on growing and non-growing cultures of thermophilic and mesophilic fungi. 2. In growing cells protein breakdown was negligible. 3. In non-growing cells the breakdown rate of total protein varied between 5.2%/h and 6.7%/h. These values were found to be dependent on both the temperature of the protein breakdown assay and the temperature of growth of the organism. 4. The rate of breakdown of soluble protein in thermophilic fungi was 9-15%/h whereas the rate in mesophilic fungi for the soluble protein fraction was only 4%/h.
