Amyloglucosidase from Halobacterium sodomense was purified by a combination of hydrophobic interaction chromatography and immobilized metal ion affinity chromatography at analytical and preparative scale with 75% recovery. The enzyme was found to be a dimer of two different subunits with molecular weights of 72,000 and 82,000 D, respectively, combining in a 175,000 D native protein. The specific activity, KM, and amino acid composition of the enzyme was determined.
