A process for producing a physiologically active substance by a combined enzymatic method is disclosed. In the combined enzymatic method, a reactant solution containing a precursor or precursors for the physiologically active substance, AXP, and a divalent metal ion is supplied at one end of a reactor incorporating either the combined enzymatic reaction system (a) or (b), wherein (a) is a reaction system including an enzyme for converting AMP to ADP, an enzyme for converting ADP to ATP, and an enzyme which catalyzes the synthesis of the physiologically active substance as it converts ATP to AMP; and (b) is a reaction system including an enzyme for converting ADP to ATP and an enzyme which catalyzes the synthesis of the physiologically active substance as it converts ATP to ADP, wherein the concentration of the divalent metal ion supplied into the reactor is held at a level no higher than 30 mM while the concentration of the AXP is held below that of that of the precursor or precursors for the physilogically active substance, and the physiologically active substance produced is withdrawn from the other end of the reactor.

A process for converting AMP into ATP which comprises (a) using an enzyme which converts AMP into ADP and has been produced from microorganisms having an optimum growth temperature of 50.degree. C. to 85.degree. C. and an enzyme which converts ADP into ATP and has been produced from microorganisms having an optimum growth temperature of 50.degree. to 85.degree. C. is disclosed. In addition, there is disclosed a process for producing a physiologically active substance by a multienzyme process which comprises forming ATP from AMP by the step (a), (b) synthesizing a physiologically active substance with the resulting ATP, coverting AMP resulting from the reaction in step (b) into ATP by the reaction in step (a), and repeatedly utilizing the converted ATP for synthesis of the physiologically active substance in step (b). By using the process it is possible to stably and efficiently carry out conversion of AMP into ATP over a long period of time. Further, it is possible to carry out continuously and economically an enzymic reaction using ATP as an auxiliary factor with very good efficiency. Whereby it has become possible to practically operate the so-called bioreactor wherein synthetic reactions in the living body are carried out as industrial chemical reactions outside the living body.

摘要:
A heat-resistant adenylate kinase is described whose activity after an incubation in a buffer solution at about 50.degree. C. for about 15 minutes is at least about 80% of the original activity prior to the incubation. This adenylate kinase can be obtained by cultivating a bacterium belonging to the genus Bacillus and collecting adenylate kinase from the resulting culture broth. This heat-resistant enzyme is very stable against heat and, therefore, after isolation, it can be stored for a long period of time compared with the conventional adenylate kinase.

摘要:
The present invention relates to a method of joining a hub 11 and a shroud 12 of an impeller 10, either one of which has blades 13 integrally formed thereon, by welding. During the welding, in an upright state in which the hub 11 is placed to face a mount surface, the hub 11 and the shroud 12 are placed on top of each other to form an assembled body 10. Welding is performed on the assembled body 10 covered with a heat insulating jacket 30(a to g), the jacket 30 covering the assembled body 10 except an open region (OP) and an inflow port 14IN required for welding. When welding of one open region OP is completed, a new open region OP is formed by moving the heat insulating jacket 30 with respect to the assembled body, and then the next welding is performed.
