Purified dextransucrases [EC 2. 4. 1. 5], DSW-D and DSW-G, from Leuconostoc mesenteroides B-512F were obtained from affinity chromatography with DEAE-Sephadex A-50 by elution with clinical dextran and guanidine-HCl, respectively. DSM-G was purified from the B-512F mutant strain SH 3002, which produces dextransucrase constitutively. Although the sugar contents of the purified enzymes were different, their molecular masses by SDS-PAGE were all 170kDa. DSW-D and DSW-G were highly aggregated and the all the activities were eluted at the void volume (V_0) on Sepharose 6B, while the DSM-G was eluted at 1.2 × V_0 volume. On rechromatography, DSM-G was separated into three peaks corresponding to the aggregated form, monomeric form, and partially digested form, respectively. The aggregation of Leuconostoc dextransucrase was looser than that of streptococcal glucosyltransferases, but the structures of these enzymes had high homology with each other.
