1,4-β-D-glucan cellobiohydrolase Ⅰ (CBH Ⅰ), p-nitrophenyl β-D-cellobioside, p-nitrophenol and cellobiose show distinct ultraviolet spectra, allowing the design of an assay to track the dynamic process of p-nitrophenyl β-D-cellobioside hydrolysis by CBH Ⅰ. Based on the linear relationship between p-nitrophenol formation in the hydrolysate and its first derivative absorption curve of AUC340-400 nm (area under the curve), a new sensitive assay for the determination of CBH Ⅰ activity was developed. The dynamic parameters of catalysis reaction, such as Vm and kcat, can all be derived from this result. Theinfluence of β-glucosidase and endoglucanase in crude enzyme sample on the assay was discussed in detail. This approach is useful for accurate determination of the activity of CBHs.
