An extracellular cellulase producing bacterium YE-5 was isolated from soil, and identified as a Cellulomonas sp. by its taxonomical characteristics. The maximal activities of avicelase (0.35 units/ml), CMCase (3.18 units/ml), FPase (0.315 units/ml) and $eta$-glucosidase (0.882 units/ml) were obtained when this strain was cultured for 48 hrs at $30^{circ}C$ in a medium containing 0.8% (w/v) Solka floc, 0.06010 (wlv) urea, 0.1% (w/v) $K_2HP0_4$, 0.1% (w/v) $MgS0_4.7H2_0$, 0.2% (w/v) bacto peptone, 0.2% (w/v) yeast extract and pH 6.5. The cellulase was purified by ammonium sulfate fractionation, DEAE-Sepharose column chromatography and Sephadex 6-100 column chromatography from culture filtrate of Cellulomonus sp. YE-5. The molecular weights of purified avieelase, CMCase I, and CMCase II were estimated to be about 95,000 ~ 105,000, 46,000 ~ 47,000 and 120,000 ~ 125,000, respectively.
