Abstract

The various properties of cellulolytic enzyme system elaborated by the fungus Curvularia Lunata have been studied from the point of view of finding out the mechanism of cellulose decomposition by this fungus. Evidence of the possibility of presence of- SH group in the enzyme molecule has been obtained. An inter se independent multienzymes system has been found to be elaborated by this fungus.
