alpha-Amylase was found to be the main protein secreted by Bacillus subtilis, corresponding to 90, 87 and 60% of total extracellular proteins at 30, 40 and 45 degrees C, respectively. A change in temperature can affect the pattern of proteins secreted as detected by gel electrophoresis. 14C-Leucine incorporation into extracellular proteins and their proportion at the end of the growth phase was higher at 30 degrees C than that at 40 or 45 degrees C. The effect of temperature on alpha-amylase synthesis as determined by its enzymic activity and on the extracellular protein synthesis followed a similar pattern.
