초록

Transformant TSD-14의 starch 발효능을 향상시키기 위해, 52$^{\circ}C$에서 60분간의 열처리로써 regeneration능을 제거한 TSD-14의 protoplast와 C, tropicalis RCT-40 (lys-)의 protoplast를 20 mM CaC1$_2$를 함유한 30% PEG를 fusogenlc agent로 하여 융합시키고 최소배지상에서 fusant를 선별한 결과 4.4$\times$$10^{-5}$ 빈도로 fusant를 얻었다. Fusant들의 탄소원 자화능을 조사한 결과 parental strains의 성질이 동시에 존재함을 알 수 있었으며 cell volume은 Parental Strains에 비해 약 1.5배정도 크게 나타났다. 또한 fusant는 유전적으로 매우 안정하였으며, parent인 TSD-14와는 달리 $\alpha$-1, 6-glucosidic linkage를 가수분해할 수 있었다. Fusant중 가장 우수 한 FSC-14-75 균주는 15%의 liquefied potato starch로부터 8.7%(v/v)의 ethanol을 생성하였고 또한 이때의 fermentation broth에 0.3%의 peptone을 첨가한 경우, ethanol 생성은 9.3%(v/v) 수준으로 증가하여 총당에 대해 86.0%의 발효율을 나타냈으며 산업적 이용가능성을 시사하였다.

To enhance the capability of starch fermentation of the transformant TSD-14, the heat treated protoplasts of TSD-14 were fused with the protoplasts of C. tropicalis (lys$^-$) in the presence of 30% (w/ v) PEG and 20 mM CaC1$_2$. Fusants were selected by nutritional complementation on minium medium and the fusion frequency was 4.4$\times$10$^{-5}$. All fusants tested were possessed of complemented traits concerning carbon compound assimilation, and the cell volumes of the fusants were approximately 1.5 times larger than the parental strains. The fusants were genetically very stable, and were able to hydrolyze alpha 1,4-glucosidic linkage as well as alpha 1,6-linkage of starch contrary to one of parents TSD-14, The most promising fusant FSC-14-75 produced 8.7% (v/v) of ethanol from 15% liquefied potato starch medium, but the result was enhanced to 9.3% (v/v) by addition of 0.3% peptone. The corresponding fermentation efficiency was 86.0%.
