| Abstract | From 42 different hot springs in six provinces belonging to distinct geographical regions of Turkey, 451 thermophilic bacilli were isolated and 67 isolates with a high amylase activity were selected to determine the α-glucosidase production capacities by using pNPG as a substrate. α-Glucosidase production capacities of the isolates varied within the range from 77.18 to 0.001 U/g. Eleven of our thermophilic bacilli produced α-glucosidase at significant levels comparable with that of the reference strains tested; thus, five strains, F84b (77.18 U/g), A333 (48.64 U/g), F84a (36.64 U/g), E134 (32.09 U/g), and A343 (10.79 U/g), were selected for further experiments. 16S rDNA sequence analysis revealed that these selected isolates all belonged to thermophilic bacilli 16S rDNA genetic group 5, four of them representing the genus Geobacillus, while strain A343 had an uncultured bacterium as the closest relative. Changes in α-glucosidase levels in the intracellular and extracellular fractions were determined during 48-h cultivation of A333, A343, F84a, F84b, E134, and the reference strain G. stearothermophilus ATCC 12980. According to α-glucosidase production type and enzyme levels in intracellular and extracellular fractions, Geobacillus spp. A333, F84a, and F84b were defined as extracellular enzyme producers, whereas the thermophilic bacterium A343 was found to be an intracellular α-glucosidase producer, similar to ATCC 12980 strain. Geobacillus sp. E134 differed in α-glucosidase production type from all tested isolates and the reference strain; it was described as a membrane-associated cell-bound enzyme producer. In this study, apart from screening a great number of new thermophilic bacilli from the hot springs of Turkey, which have not yet been thoroughly studied, five new thermostable α-1,4-glucosidase-producing bacilli that have biotechnological potential with α-glucosidases located at different cell positions were obtained. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
