摘要:
A new enzyme, aldehyde oxidase, catalyses the oxidation of an aldehyde to a corresponding acid but does not have any catalytic action upon other substrates, particularly nitrogen-containing aromatic heterocyclic compounds, purine, hypoxanthine and quinine. The enzyme is produced by fermentation. A biologically pure culture of the microorganism Pseudomonas sp. No. 6233, FERM P-6467, which produces recoverable quantities of aldehyde oxidase when cultured, is another embodiment of the present invention.
摘要:
The invention relates to a process for producing L(-)-tetrahydrofolic acid which comprises allowing dihydrofolate reductase to act upon dihydrofolic acid in the presence of (1) NADP or NADPH, and (2) glucose and glucose dehydrogenase. L(-)-tetrahydrofolic acid is useful as the intermediate for L(-)-leucovarin.

Neuraminidase is produced by culturing a neuraminidase producing microorganism belonging to the genus Micromonospora. The neuraminidase is useful for the quantitative determination of a sialic acid-containing substance in a sample.

57 The determination of a substrate or an activity of an enzyme in a sample containing ammonia by using a reaction system which forms ammonia can be performed by decomposing ammonia in the sample with an ammonia-decomposing reagent system, adding a reagent system necessary for the formation of ammonia from the substrate or the substrate for the enzyme to form ammonia and determining the formed ammonia.

摘要:
A novel acetylpolyamine amidohydrolase is described. The enzyme specifically hydrolyzes the amino bond in acetylputrescine, acetylcadaverine, acetylspermidine and acetylspermine with strong substrate affinity. The enzyme is preferably produced by culturing a microorganism belonging to the genus Mycoplana, and is used in the quantitative determination of polyamine contained in a living body sample, which is useful for cancer diagnosis.
