A mannan-degrading microbe was isolated from rotting porang tubers (Amorphophallus muelleri Blume). Molecular identification using 16S-rRNA sequence analysis revealed that the isolate showed 99.67% similarity with Acinetobacter baummanni. A crude enzyme from ammonium sulphate precipitation was used for preliminary characterization. The characterization results showed that the enzyme activity is optimum at 45 °C, and stable at 35-50 °C, while the optimum pH is 7, and stable at pH 5-7. The substrate with the highest relative activity was found in guar gum which was 137.512%. The enzyme activity was inhibited by Ca, Na, K ions, and increased by Mn2+ ions. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.
