  1. E_CBAX1, E_CBAX2, and E_CBR, the enzyme blends produced by the fungus using CBAX1, CBAX2, or CBR as the sole carbon source, respectively. All enzyme blends were subjected to salting-out and dialysis treatments before use. The enzymatic reactions were carried out in 0.1 M sodium acetate buffer (pH 5.0) at 45 °C for 10 min, and the activities were determined as described in the “Methods” section.
  2. aEnzyme activity was measured using PASC as a substrate. The data represent the averages of three independent assays
