Abstract

The computer model for a dimer of inulinase from Aspergillus ficuum is designed. The permolecular organization of inulinase from Aspergillus niger is experimentally investigated. The question about the role of various inulinase forms in manifestation of their functional activity is discussed. It is shown, that in the process of inulinase dimerization when contacts between monomeric forms of the enzyme are formed, a key role belongs to the nonpolar amino acid residues.
