Digestive enzyme for yeast cell walls / Westase.

WestaseTM is a fungus derived enzymes preparation containing ß-1, 6 glucanase and ß-1, 3 glucanase activities. 

It efficiently lyses S. cerevisiae, S. pombe, as well as yeasts resistant to Zymolyase® treatment such as Ustilago maydis, 

Phaffia rhodozyma, Cryptococcus albidus. It can prepare various DNA and intracellular enzymes.

 

  

 

This product has complex lytic activities of yeast cell mainly consisting of ß-1,6 glucanase and ß-1,3 glucanase activity. 

This enzyme works well for Ascosporogenous yeasts such as Saccharomyces cerevisiae. 

 

But it is also available for fission yeasts such as Schizosaccharomyces pombe which cannot be protoplasted just with Zymolyase treatment or 

Basidiosporogenous yeasts, Imperfect yeasts such as Ustilago maydis, Phaffia rhodozyma, Cryptococcus albidus, etc. which are rarely protoplasted, and make them efficiently into protoplast.

Yatalase™ Fungal Cell Lytic Enzym >>Product Page

Yatalase™ is Corynebacterium sp derived enzyme that lyses cell walls of filamentous fungi. It enables measurement of microbiomass of malted rice easily, and preparation of various DNA and intracellular enzymes.




Labiase Bacterial Cell Lytic Enzymes >>Product page

Labiase is a wide spectrum bacteriolytic enzyme preparation that efficiently digests walls of many Gm+ bacteria (lactic acid bacterium, hiochi bacterium) and a smaller number of Gm- bacterial strains. Use Labiase to lyse bacteria for extraction of DNA or other intracellular components, cell wall structural analysis, or to suppress the growth of certain harmful bacteria.
