The growth kinetics of Streptomyces noursei NRRL 5126 was investigated under different aeration and agitation combinations in a 5.0 l stirred tank fermenter. Poly-${\varepsilon}$-lysine biosynthesis, cell mass formation, and glycerol utilization rates were affected markedly by both aeration and agitation. An agitation speed of 300 rpm and aeration rate at 2.0 vvm supported better yields of 1,622.81 mg/l with highest specific productivity of 15 mg/l.h. Fermentation kinetics performed under different aeration and agitation conditions showed poly- ${\varepsilon}$-lysine fermentation to be a growth-associated production. A constant DO at 40% in the growth phase and 20% in the production phase increased the poly-${\varepsilon}$-lysine yield as well as cell mass to their maximum values of 1,992.35 mg/l and 20.73 g/l, respectively. The oxygen transfer rate (OTR), oxygen utilization rate (OUR), and specific oxygen uptake rates ($qO_2$) in the fermentation broth increased in the growth phase and remained unchanged in the stationary phase.

The expression of Deinococcus radiodurans dr1558 and pprM genes was examined for enhanced lysine production in recombinant Corynebacterium glutamicum. These genes are known to confer high tolerance to pH and osmotic shock in Escherichia coli. D. radiodurans dr1558 and pprM genes were expressed in C. glutamicum by using 6 synthetic promoters of different strengths, to evaluate the effect of expression efficiency on lysine production. Recombinant C. glutamicum expressing DR1558 under the L26 and I64 promoters showed higher lysine production than that expressing DR1558 under other promoters. Similarly, recombinant C. glutamicum expressing PprM under same promoters (L26 and I64) showed a higher increase in lysine production compared to that expressing PprM under other promoters. In the absence of $CaCO_3$ in the medium, the expression of DR1558 or PprM also increased lysine concentration in C. glutamicum depending on the promoter used. Together, these results suggest that genes involved in radiation tolerance in D. radiodurans can be used to enhance production of amino acids and their derivatives.

B. lactofermentum의 lysine 생합성에 있어서 DDH경로 및 ddh gene이 지닌 중요성을 조사하기 위하여, site-specific mutagenesis technique를 통하여 B. lactofermentum의 ddh gene을 disruption함으로서 DDH 경로를 차단시켰다. B. lactofermentum ddh mutant는 wild type 및 AEC내성 균주보다 성장이 매우 저조하였으며 lysine 생산량에서도 급격한 저하를 가져왔다. 이와 같이 B. lactofermentum이 DAP 경로만을 가졌을 때 세포의 성장 및 lysine 생산량에 있어서 극적인 저하를 가져왔기 때문에 B. lactofermentum에서의 DDH 경로는 meso-DAP 및 lysine 생합성에 있어 필수적인 경로로 작용한다는 것을 확인하였다. 그러므로 C. glutamicum과 B. lactofermentum과 같은 corynebacteria가 lysine을 많이 생산하는 것은 DDH 경로가 부가적으로 존재하기 때문이며, 이러한 DDH 경로는 metabolic flux가 증가되면 중간 대사물을 lysine으로 변화시키는 중요한 경로로 작용할 것이라 사료된다.

섬유소 기질로부터 L-lysine을 생산할 목적으로 Cellulomonas flavigena에 Brevibacterium flavum 및 Corynebacterium glutamicum을 각각 이속간 원형질체 융합을 하여 융합조건과 융합체의 성질을 조사하였다. 각각의 parental protoplast를 동량으로 혼합한 후 30% PEG 6000으로 3$0^{\circ}C$, 30분간 융합시킨 결과 1.9$\times$$10^{-6}$~2.1$\times$$10^{-6}$의 융합빈도를 얻었고, 134주의 융합체 중 유전적 안정화가 판명되고 CMC 기질로부터 L-lysine 생성능이 인정된 FCB 3 및 FCC 19를 최종 선별하였다. FCB 3 및 FCC 19는 친주보다 DNA 함량이 높을 분 아니라 G＋C 함량도 융합전 친주의 G＋C 총함량의 약 1/2에 해당하여 반수체로서 안정화되어 있었으며, 그리고 친주와 반대로 CMC 자화능이 있어 CMC로부터 L-lysine을 배지 중에 축적하였다.

This study was conducted to investigate the effects of L-carnitine with different levels of lysine on performance of pigs weaned at 21 days of age. A total of 120 pigs were allotted into a $3{\times}2$ factorial design with three different levels of lysine (1.40%, 1,60% and 1.80%) and two levels of L-carnitine (0 and 1,000 ppm). Each treatment had 4 replications with 5 pigs per replicate. Pigs of $22{\pm}1$ days (5.9 kg of body weight) were grouped into a completely randomized block design. Treatments were 1) 1.4-Crt; 1.40% of lysine with 1,000 ppm of L-carnitine, 2) 1.4-N; 1.40% of lysine without L-carnitine, 3) 1.6-Crt; 1.60% of lysine with 1,000 ppm of L-carnitine, 4) 1.6-N; 1.60% of lysine without L-carnitine, 5) 1.8-Crt; 1.80% of lysine with 1,000 ppm of L-carnitine and 6) 1.8-N; 1.80% of lysine without L-carnitine. Growth performance was optimized in pigs fed 1.6% lysine regardless of carnitine addition. For the first 7 days of the experimental period, the best ADG and F/G were found in pigs within the 1.6-Crt group. Carnitine significantly improved (p<0.05) ADG of pigs when the lysine level in the diet was 1.6%. Only in the third week carnitine had a significant influence on growth performance of pigs. A lysine-sparing effect of L-carnitine was not detected in this study. The 1.6-Crt group showed the best proximate nutrient digestibility, and the crude fat and gross energy digestibility were higher when the L-carnitine was added in the diet. Lysine level significantly affected the digestibilities of DM (p<0.001), GE (p<0.001), CP (p<0.01) and C.fat (p<0.05). Carnitine also significantly improved digestibility of nutrients. Lysine level as well as carnitine level affected the amino acids digestibility, however, in 1.8% lysine diet carnitine did not influence on amino acids digestibility. Plasma carnitine content was significant higher (p<0.05) in pigs fed L-carnitine. This indicates the increased biological availability of carnitine within the body. L-carnitine supplementation tended to improve feed utilization during the third week (p<0.10) and during the entire period (p=0.10). Lysine level significantly affected feed utilization of pigs during the third week and entire period (p<0.05). As pigs grew, the lysine requirement was reduced.

L-Lysine 고역가 생산균주를 개발하기 위해 공지의 균주인 C. glutamicum KFCCI0672를 인공 돌연변이시켜 pyrimidine analouge인 6-azauraciI($4\ell$) 내성을 부여한 결과 모균주에 비해 L-Lysine 생산성이 3% 증가된 C. glutamicum CH0516을 획득할 수있었다. L-Lysine 생산성 향상의 원인을 규명하고자 C. glutamicum KFCCI0672 및 CH0516의 aspartoki­r nase(AKase)와 aspartate carbamoyltrasferase ( ATCase)의 aspartate에 대한 $K_m$값을 측정한 결 과 AKase의 $K_m$값은 200.0ruM, 166.7mM이었고 A TCase의 $K_m$값은 0.13ruM, O.27mM이었다. 한편 C. glutamicum KFCC10672와 CH0516의 AKase 비효소활성은 각각 $3.89{\times}1^{-1}$ Iunits/mg, $4.78{\times}10^{-1}$ lunits/mg이었고 A TCase의 경우는 각각 2.20units/mg, 1.84units/mg이었다. C C. glutamicum CH0516이 KFCCl0672에 비해 세포의 성장도가 낮고 L-Lysine 생산성이 높은 이 유로셔는 CH0516의 A TCase의 aspartate에 대한 K Km값이 KFCC10672의 값에 비해 크고 비효소활성 이 낮은 점에셔 찾을 수 있다. 즉 CH0516 A TCase 의 aspartate 사용량이 KFCC10672에 비해 낮기 때문에 여분의 aspartate가 AKase에 의해 L-Ly­s sme이 합성됩으로써 L-Lysine 생산성 증가가 얻어 진 것으로 사료된다. 이러한 사실은 CH0516 A AKase의 Km값이 KFCC10672에 비해 낮고 비효 소활성이 높은 점에셔도 뒷받침된다.

An experiment was performed to evaluate the effects of dietary metabolizable energy (ME) and lysine on carcass characteristics and meat quality in Arbor Acres (AA) broilers from 1 to 56 days of age. A total of 2,970 1-d-old male broiler chicks were randomly allocated to nine dietary treatments (three ME levels in combination with three lysine levels), and dietary ME and lysine concentrations were formulated by varying corn, soybean meal, tallow, and L-lysine sulfate concentrations. Live body weight (BW), carcass weight (CW), dressing percent, breast muscle weight (BMW), yield of breast muscle, muscle color (CIE L*, a*, and b*), pH values 45 min and 24 h postmortem ($pH_{45}$, and $pH_{24}$), meat shear force value (SFV), and water loss rate (WLR) were evaluated. Results showed that live body weight and dressing percent increased (p<0.05) as dietary energy increased. Higher dietary lysine content improved breast muscle weight. Neither carcass weight nor yield of breast muscle was affected by dietary energy or lysine content. Higher ME increased the b* value (p = 0.067) and $pH_{24}$ value (p<0.05), whereas it decreased SFV (p<0.05) and WLR (p = 0.06). Only water loss rate was influenced (p<0.01) by dietary lysine, which was higher in broilers from the high lysine diet as compared to those from medium or low lysine diets. The $pH_{45}$ value and L* value of breast muscle were not affected by ME or lysine. Significant interaction of dietary ME and lysine was found on a* value of breast muscle. These results indicated that dietary ME and lysine had important effects on breast muscle growth and meat quality, however their effects were different. Different concentrations of dietary ME and lysine might be considered to improve meat quality.

We conducted a series of investigations in order to elucidate role of nutritional status in regulating GLUT expression and energy metabolism in porcine muscle. Firstly, the role of mild undernutrition in regulating muscle GLUT gene expression and function was studied in growing pigs (3 wk of age) on a high (H) or low (L) food intake (H = 2L) at $35^{\circ}C$ or $26^{\circ}C$. Low food intake selectively upregulates GLUT1 and GLUT4 gene expression; mRNA levels were elevated in longissimus dorsi (L. dorsi) and rhomboideus muscles but not in diaphragm or cardiac muscles. Our next step was to determine whether dietary lysine, a major primary limiting amino acid in diets for pigs, affects muscle GLUT4 expression. Pigs of 6 wk of age were pair-fed a control or low lysine (LL) diet. The control diet contained optimal amounts of all essential amino acids, including 1.15% lysine. The LL diet was similar but contained only 0.70% lysine. GLUT4 mRNA expression was upregulated by the LL diet in L. dorsi and rhomboideus muscles, whereas that in cardiac muscle was unaffected. GLUT4 protein abundance was also higher in rhomboideus muscle of animals on the LL diet. We conducted another investigation in order to elucidate effects of the LL diet on post-GLUT4 glucose metabolism. Activity of hexokinase was unaffected by dietary lysine levels while that of citrate synthase was higher both in L. dorsi and rhomboideus muscles of pigs fed on the LL diet. Glucose 6-phosphate content was higher in L. dorsi msucle in the LL group. Glycogen content was higher both in L. dorsi and rhomboideus muscles in the LL group. Further, we determined the effects of dietary lysine levels on accumulation of intramuscular fat (IMF) in L. dorsi muscle of finishing pigs. A low lysine diet (lysine content was 0.40%) meeting approximately 70% of the requirement of lysine was given to finishing pigs for two months. IMF contents in L. dorsi of the pigs given the low lysine diet were twice higher than those of the pigs fed on a control diet (lysine content was 0.65%). Finally, we proved that a well known effect of breadcrumbs feeding to enhance IMF of finishing pigs could be attributed to shortage of amino acids in diets including breadcrumbs.
