摘要:
A bacterial plasmid has been isolated from Pseudomonas CT14 comprising genes encoding enzymes implicated in aromatic ring cleavage. Additionally, the novel genes encoding proteins involved in mercury tolerance and plasmid stability and replication have been identified. The strain from which the plasmid was isolated is useful in a variety of methods including methods for the degradation of aromatic compounds, particularly catechols.
摘要:
A gene has been isolated from a Rhodococcus sp. encoding an aldoxime dehydratase enzyme useful for the conversion of aldoxime substrates to nitrilases and other downstream intermediates. The gene has been cloned into a recombinant host and expressed.

摘要:
Enterococcus bacteria having enhanced tolerance to butanols have been isolated. The bacteria are useful for the fermentive production of butanol. New methods for the isolation of butanol tolerant Enterococcus are also provided.
摘要:
Genes have been isolated from a variety of bacteria encoding Baeyer-Villiger monooxygenase activity. The genes and their products are useful for the conversion of ketones to the corresponding esters. A series of motifs, common to all genes, has been identified as diagnostic for genes encoding proteins of this activity.
摘要:
A method for the production of 1-butanol by fermentation using a microbial production host is disclosed. The method employs a reduction in temperature during the fermentation process that results in a more robust tolerance of the production host to the butanol product.
摘要:
High cell density cultures of yeast were found to have higher tolerance for butanol in the medium. The high cell density yeast cultures had greater survival and higher glucose utilization than cultures with low cell densities. Production of butanol using yeast in high cell density cultures is thus beneficial for improving butanol production.
