摘要:
An L-isoleucine-producing bacterium belonging to the genus Escherichia which carries a thrABC operon which comprises a thrA gene coding for aspartokinase I-homoserine dehydrogenase I substantially released from the inhibition by L-threonine and an ilvGMEDA operon which comprises an ilvA gene coding for threonine deaminase substantially released from the inhibition by L-isoleucine and whose region required for attenuation is removed; and an L-isoleucine-producing bacterium belonging to the genus Escherichia carrying the thrABC operon, an lysC gene coding for aspartokinase III substantially released from the inhibition by L-lysine, and the ilvGMEDA operon. The bacteria permit biosynthesis of a sufficient amount of L-isoleucine.
摘要:
A mutant of the genus Escherichia is described, the .alpha.-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase activity of which is deficient or reduced, and/or the phosphoenol pyruvate carboxylase and/or glutamate dehydrogenase activities of which are amplified. The mutant is useful in the fermentative production of L-glutamic acid.
摘要:
An Escherichia coli mutant strain deficient in dihydrodipicolinate synthase or dihydrodipicolinate reductase is transformed with a chromosomal gene library of Bacillus methanolicus, and a transformant strain which can grow on a minimal medium is selected. Recombinant DNA which codes for dihydrodipicolinate synthase or dihydrodipicolinate reductase (named dapB) is obtained from the transformant.
摘要:
An L-amino acid is produced by culturing a Methylophilus bacterium which can grow by using methanol as the main carbon source and has L-amino acid-producing ability, for example, a Methylophilus bacterium in which dihydrodipicolinate synthase activity and aspartokinase activity are enhanced by transformation of cells with a DNA coding for dihydrodipicolinate synthase that is desensitized to feedback inhibition by L-lysine and a DNA coding for aspartokinase that is desensitized to feedback inhibition by L-lysine, or a Methylophilus bacterium which is casamino acid auxotrophic, in a medium containing methanol as a main carbon source, to produce and accumulate an L-amino acid in culture, and collecting the L-amino acid from the culture.

An L-amino acid is produced by culturing a Methylophilus bacterium which can grow by using methanol as a main carbon source and has L-amino acid-producing ability, for example, a Methylophilus bacterium in which dihydrodipicolinate synthase activity and aspartokinase activity are enhanced by transformation through introduction into cells, of a DNA coding for dihydrodipicolinate synthase that does not suffer feedback inhibition by L-lysine and a DNA coding for aspartokinase that does not suffer feedback inhibition by L-lysine, or a Methylophilus bacterium made to be casamino acid auxotrophic, in a medium containing methanol as a main carbon source, to produce and accumulate an L-amino acid in culture, and collecting the L-amino acid from the culture.
摘要:
The present invention describes a method for producing a target substance by utilizing a microorganism comprising culturing the microorganism in a medium, allowing the target substance to accumulate, and collecting the target substance from the medium. Also the microorganism used in the present invention is a mutant strain whereby maltose assimilation is controlled by the interaction between IIAGlc protein of glucose PTS and MalK.
摘要:
Disclosed are coryneform L-glutamic acid-producing bacteria deficient in .alpha.-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase, a method of producing L-glutamic acid by using the bacteria, a gene coding for an enzyme having .alpha.-KGDH activity originating from coryneform L-glutamic acid-producing bacteria, recombinant DNA containing the gene, coryneform bacteria harboring the recombinant DNA, and a method of producing L-lysine by using bacteria harboring the recombinant DNA and having L-lysine productivity.
摘要:
A method for producing a target substance by utilizing a microorganism by culturing the microorganism in a medium to produce and accumulate the target substance in the medium and collecting the target substance from the culture is described. The microorganism is a mutant recombinant strain in which maltose assimilation is controlled by reducing or eliminating the interaction between IIAGlc protein of the glucose PTS and a protein involved in non-PTS uptake of maltose.
