    摘要: A polypeptide having a pantothenate kinase activity, which is derived from a Corynebacterium microorganism capable of producing a pantothenic acid derivative at a high level; DNA encoding the polypeptide; a recombinant vector having the DNA introduced therein; and a transformant having the DNA or the recombinant vector introduced therein. It becomes possible to produce a pantothenic acid derivative including coenzyme A in a large quantity by a biological procedure, and therefore becomes possible to provide a highly safe pantothenic acid derivative with high quality which has been desired in the applications including medicines, functional foods and the like.

    摘要: Excellent decarbamylase variants which are more advantageously usable industrially are provided by clarifying the stereostructure of decarbamylase by X-ray crystalline structure analysis and designing molecules aiming at elevating the reactivity to the substrates (D-N-carbamoyl- alpha -amino acids), etc. by using the stereostructure. More particularly speaking, provision is made of: the stereostructure of decarbamylase determined by X-ray crystalline structure analysis, stereostructure models of variants thereof and stereostructure models of complexes thereof with substrates, products, etc.; a molecular design method with the use of these stereostructures; a method of obtaining decarbamylase variants by using this method; the decarbamylase variants obtained by this method; and a method of designing and producing variants of proteins which are similar to decarbamylase in structure.

    摘要: An enzyme capable of converting a ketone compound into an optically active amino compound via a transamination reaction and a process for producing an optically active amino compound by using this enzyme. (S)- alpha -Phenethylamine:pyruvate transaminase which acts on (S)- alpha -phenethylamine and a ketone compound and catalyzes a transamination reaction whereby acetophenone and an amino compound corresponding to the ketone compound are formed; a process for producing an optically active amino compound by using the transaminase; and a method for culturing a microorganism producing the above transaminase wherein at least one inducer selected from the group consisting of propylamine, 1-butylamine, 2-butylamine, 2-pentylamine, isopropylamine and isobutylamine is added to the medium in culturing the transaminase-producing microorganism.

    摘要: A process for efficiently producing optically active amino compounds, mainly (R)-amino compounds, at a low cost by means of a microbial enzyme; a polypeptide suitable for use in the production process and having a stereoselective transaminase activity; and a DNA coding for the polypeptide. The process is characterized by comprising causing a transaminase to act on a ketone compound as an amino acceptor in the presence of a primary amine as an amino donor to stereoselectively transfer the amino group to thus obtain an optically active amino compound. The DNA contains a base sequence coding for a polypeptide having a stereoselective transaminase activity. The polypeptide can be obtained by incubating a microorganism belonging to the genus Arthrobacter.
