摘要:
A process for producing L-tryptophan optionally substituted at the 5-position by a hydroxyl group, which comprises reacting fumaric acid or its salt, an ammonium ion and indole optionally substituted at the 5-position by a hydroxyl group in the presence of (A) fumarase, (B) pyruvic acid-malic acid carboxylase, (C) tryptophanase and (D) NADH oxidase.
摘要:
A process for cultivating a microorganism transformed with a recombinant plasmid at least containing (a) a DNA fragment containing a promoter and a regulator gene tnaC located downstream of the promoter in a tryptophanase operon (tna), and (b) a DNA fragment containing a desired structural gene which can express by the promoter, which comprises cultivating the transformed microorganism in a culture medium while adding glucose as a carbon source continuously or intermittently so that the concentration of glucose is maintained within the range of 0.01 to 0.3 %, and thereby allowing the desired structural gene to express in the microorganism.
(a) a DNA fragment containing tryptophanase structural genes, (b) a DNA fragment containing a tryptophan promoter and operator which control the expression of the tryptophanase structural genes, (c) a DNA fragment containing genes governing the automonous replication system of a Col E1-type plasmid, and (d) a DNA fragment containing genes derived from F-plasmid and governing its partition system. Microorganisms transformed with the said plasmid were useful for the production of L-tryptophan having excellent producibility of tryptophanase.

摘要:
A novel plasmid which can be autonomously replicated within the cells of Escherichia coli, said plasmid comprising a DNA fragment containing genes which govern the biosynthesis of tryptophan synthase, a DNA fragment containing genes which are derived from F-plasmid and govern its partition system and a DNA fragment containing genes which are derived from a Col El-type plasmid and govern its autonomous replication. A host organism transformed with the plasmid is useful for industrial production of tryptophan.
摘要:
A method of selectively inhibiting pyruvic acid decomposition activity in microorganism cells containing tryptophanase or a treated product thereof, which comprises heat-treating said cells or the treated product thereof in the presence of an ammonium ion.
