    Abstract:
    The matter of this work was to evaluate possibilities of biospecific immobilization of synthetic mannan-penicillin G acylase neoglycoconjugate on Concanavalin A support. The conjugate containing 37% (w/w) of yeast mannan was prepared. Significant biospecific interaction of this neoglycoenzyme with Con A was confirmed by precipitation method. The biospecific sorption of conjugate was investigated using Concanavalin A-triazine bead celluloses MT-100 with different content of Con A (from 1.4 to 9.8 mgCon A/gwet support). The results obtained under optimal conditions were compared with those from covalent immobilization of PGA. The sorbent capacity was observed higher for covalent binding of enzyme. On the other hand, the biospecifically immobilized neoglycoenzyme retained a greater amount of initial activity. The maximum amount of 6.6mgimmobilizedneoglycoenzyme/gwet Con A-sorbent (18.1 U/g) was achieved. The amount as well as activity of immobilized mannan-penicillin G acylase was increased by its two multiple layering on surface of sorbent (10.1mg, respectively, 23.5 U/gwet sorbent). Determined storage and operational (using flow calorimetric method) stabilities of biospecifically immobilized enzyme, were similar, possibly somewhat higher that those of covalent bound penicillin G acylase.
