摘要:
The present invention discloses a preventive or ameliorant of hypertension or medical symptoms caused by it and a food or beverage that prevents or ameliorates hypertension or medical symptoms caused by it that contain for its active ingredient dioxabicyclo�3.3.0!octane derivative represented by the formula (2). ##STR1## wherein, R.sup.1, R.sup.2, R.sup.3, R.sup.4, R.sup.5 and R.sup.6 are respectively and independently a hydrogen atom or an alkyl group having 1 to 3 carbon atoms, or R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 and/or R.sup.4 and R.sup.5 collectively represent a methylene group or ethylene group, and n, m and L represent 0 or 1.
摘要:
A novel peroxidase was obtained from a fast growing microorganism of the genus Coprinus cinereus. The fungal peroxidase is comparable to the conventional peroxidase derived from horseradish or Japanese radish in that it can be used either as a clinical or diagnostic reagent or as a marker enzyme in enzyme immunoassay.
摘要:
Certain noval polypeptides and their use as carcinostatic agents and as agents for the detection and determination of viruses. The polypeptides contain forty-five amino acid residues and have a peculiar tetracyclic structure in that they are bridged with four disulfide bonds between each crysteine molecular pair, said pairs being present between the 3rd and 39th, 4th and 31st, 12th and 29th and 16th and 25th positions, respectively.
摘要:
The pressent invention provides a composition comprising adriamycin or daunomycin in mixture with one or more compounds selected from sulfite, acid sulfite, pyrosulfite, diothionite and sulfurous anhydride in order to reduce the toxicities of adriamycin or daunomycin and to increase the potency thereof and a method comprising administering said compounds in mixture with adriamycin or daunomycin.By the composition and method of the present invention the safe and effective treatment of various tumors with adriamycin and daunomycin, which have remarkably high potency, but also have serious side effects, will be provided.
摘要:
The present invention relates to the Rhizopus derived glucoamylase gene, a novel recombinant vector comprising said gene, and a microorganism transformed by said vector, as well as a process for reproducing Rhizopus glucoamylase by cultivating the transformed microorganism, especially yeast, in a liquid medium.
摘要:
This invention provides a process for producing ethanol from a starchy material, wherein the starchy material is simultaneously subjected to saccharification and subsequent fermentation by use of a yeast host which has been transformed by an expressible recombinant vector comprising a glucoamylase gene derived from a fungus of the genus Rhizopus.
摘要:
A novel superoxide dismutase prepared from a superoxide dismutase-producing strain of the genus Nocardiopsis. The enzyme is a tetramer with a molecular weight of about 8.8.times.10.sup.4, composed of sub-units of about 2.2.times.10.sup.4. The superoxide dismutase contains 1.56 g-atoms of iron per mole but no copper or manganese. Potassium cyanide at a concentration of 1 mM does not inhibit activity, however exponential inactivation is caused by 5 mM hydrogen peroxide.

摘要:
A novel urease and a process for producing the same are disclosed. This novel urease has certain properties that are mainly useful for removing urea from alcoholic liquors or other foods and beverages produced by fermentation. These properties include an optimum pH in an acidic pH range, high stability in a considerably high concentration of alcohol such as in an alcoholic liquor, resistance to high temperatures, and highly specific activity to urea.This urease can be produced by culturing a certain strain belonging to genus Arthrobacter, disrupting the cultured microbial cells and isolating the product.
