Viscosimetric evidence of alginase activity is given for the intestine and the intestinal contents of a sea urchin. The alginase activity of the gut wall and that of the contents of the gut differ in pH optima; this suggests that there may be two sources of alginase. The enzyme (or enzymes) depolymerizes algin.
已给出关于海胆肠道及肠道内容物中褐藻酸酶活性的粘度测定证据。肠壁的褐藻酸酶活性与肠道内容物的褐藻酸酶活性在最适pH值方面存在差异;这表明可能存在两种褐藻酸酶来源。该酶(或这些酶)使褐藻酸解聚。
