Abstract: The present invention provides a unit and a method useful for more precise phenylalanine measurement. More specifically, the present invention provides a modified phenylalanine dehydrogenase that includes a mutation of at least one amino acid residue so as to improve the characteristics (for example, substrate specificity, solubility, and phenylalanine dehydrogenase activity) of a phenylalanine dehydrogenase related to measurement of phenylalanine, a method for analyzing phenylalanine by measuring phenylalanine contained in a test sample using the modified phenylalanine dehydrogenase, and others.

Abstract: A method for producing an objective protein and a method for producing a disaccharide are provided. An objective protein is produced by culturing Talaromyces cellulolyticus in a culture medium containing an expression inducer such as gentiobiose. A disaccharide is produced from a saccharide raw material by enzymatic conversion using a disaccharide synthesizing enzyme.
