Abstract
Cyanogenesis, β-Glucosidase, Linamarase, Trifolium repens Linamarase was purified by a three-step procedure from leaves of a clone of Trifolium repens. The partially purified enzyme was used to produce antilinamarin. The antiserum contained anti-linamarase as well as antibodies against one or more other β-glucosidases. By incubation with an extract of a plant without linamarase activity pure antilinamarase could be obtained. Comparison of the titration curves of crude and purified antilinamarase shows that linamarase is an enzyme antigenically different from other β-glucosidases, and that this enzyme is absent from plants recessive for the gene Li.
