  • 선별마커로써 Lactococcus lactis ssp. lactis ATCC 7962 유래의 $\beta$-galactosidase 유전자를 포함하는 Lactococcus용 셔틀/발현 벡터 pWgall3T를 제조하여 Escherichia coli DH5$\alpha$와 고. Lactis MG1363내로 도입하였다. 이들 형질 전환체들은 X-gal을 포함하는 배지에서 파란색의 표현형을 보임으로써 쉽게 확인할 수 있었다. 또한, L. lactis MG1363 형질전환체로부터 $\beta$-galactosidase 활성을 측정한 결과 기존에 $\beta$-galactosidase를 활성을 지닌 L. lactis ATCC 7962에 비해 glucose를 포함하는 M17배지에서 4배정도 높은 활성을 보임으로써 선별마커로써의 효율성을 나타내었다. pWgal13T는 $\beta$-galactosidase 유전자 외에 L. lactis Wg2유래의 replicon과 외래 유전자의 발현을 위한 L. lactis ssp. cremoris LM0230의 promoter P13C, terminator를 포함하고 있다. 이 벡터의 이용가능성을 확인하기 위하여 외래 유전자 EGFP유전자를 P13C 아래에 삽입하여 E. coli와 L. iactis에서 발현을 확인하였다. 이 연구에서 제조된 Lactococcus용 발현 벡터 pWgal13T는 E. coli와 L. lactis에서 외래 유용 유전자를 생산을 위해 이용 할 수 있을 것이다.

  • Lactococcal cells are nutritionally fastidious and thus, generally cultured either in milk or M17 medium (Terzaghi and Sandine, 1975). In this study, Lactococcus cremoris wild-type (KH) and its less­proteolytic mutant (KHA1) cells were grown on the M17 medium or with modified M17 medium by replicated parallel experiments. The modified M17 medium had the same composition as M17 medium, except that lactose was replaced by glucose. Analyses of culture-broth samples, in which the M17 and the modified M17 media were used, were conducted by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). But, working with these media created noisy problems in analyses of samples. Therefore, a new semi-synthetic medium was developed on the basis of nutritional requirements (Morishita et al., 1981). The composition of the semi-synthetic medium determined on the basis of the nutritional requirements and the composition of milk, is presented in Table 1. The composition of M17 medium is also presented and compared in the table. L. cremoris KH and KHA1 cells were grown again on the new synthetic medium containing glucose or lactose. The broth samples were then drawn and analyzed by HPLC. Clearer separations of fermented products were achieved from the new medium than those with the M17 and the modified M17 media. In comparison with the M17 or the modified M17 media, growth on the new medium was good (Kim et al, 1993). Additional fermentations were also carried out at a controlled pH of 7.0, where enhanced growth of lactococcal cells was obtained. In the fermentations, samples were also analyzed for the concentrations of sugar and lactic acid. The results showed that the new synthetic medium was as good as or better than the M 17 and the modified M 17 media. This is because casein hydrolysate in the synthetic medium provided a ready supply of amino acids and peptides for L. cremoris KH and KHA1 cells. Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) including Lactococcal cells have been known to be an effective means of preserving foods, at the same time as giving particular tastes in fields of dairy products. LAB also have always occupied an important place in the technology of sea products, and marine LAB have known to be present in traditional fermented products (Ohhira et al, 1988). To apply the new synthetic medium to marine LAB, two different LAB were isolated from pickled anchovy and pollacks caviar and were grown on the new media in which various concentrations of NaCl $(3, 5, 7 and 10\%)$ added. They were also grown on the medium solution in natural seawater $(35\%o\;salinity)$ and on the solution of natural seawater itself, too. As seen in Fig. 1, Marine LAB were grown best on the synthetic medium solution in natural seawater and the higher concentrations of NaCl were added to the medium, the longer lag-phase of growth profile appeared. Marine LAB in natural seawater were not grown well. From these results, the synthetic medium seems good to cultivate cells which are essential to get salted fish aged. In this study, it showed that the new synthetic medium provided adequate nutrition for L. cremoris KH and KHA1 cells, which have been used as cheese starters (Stadhouders et al, 1988). Using this new medium, the acid production capability of starter cultures could be also measured quantitatively. Thus, this new medium was inferior to the M17 or the modified M17 medium in culturing the cheese starters and in measuring fermentation characteristics of the starter cells. Moreover, this new medium found to be good for selected and well-identified marine LAB which are used in rapid fermentations of low-salted fish.

  • 발효식품의 제조에 유용한 starter 개발 및 probiotics로서 이용 가능성을 타진하기 위하여 항균성 물질을 생산하는 Lactobacillus amylovorus IMC-1 균주를 이용한 skim milk medium에서의 산생성, 단백질 분해활성, lactose 분해활성 및 유사구균과 혼합발효 그리고 병원성 세균에 대한 살균력 등을 검토하였다. L. amylovorus IMC-1은 10% skim milk에 yeast extract를 첨가하여 12시간 배양하였을 때 산도 0.8%이었고, 72시간째에는 2.7%로 우수한 산 생성력을 보였다. IMC-1 균주의 ${\beta}-galactosidase$ 활성은 균체 1 mg당 약 $39{\mu}M/minute$로 매우 강한 반면, $phospho-{\beta}-galactosidase$의 활성은 매우 낮았다. 또한 이 균주는 10% skim milk에서 배양 12시간째 $6\;{\mu}g/mL$, 72시간째에 $69\;{\mu}g/mL$의 유리 tyrosine을 생산하여 단백질 분해활성이 낮았다. 전기영동상의 band pattern으로부터 casein중 ${\alpha}-casein$을 주로 이용하며, ${\beta}-casein$은 거의 이용하지 못함을 알 수 있었다. 10% skim milk에서 IMC-1 균주 및 St. thermophilus NIAI 510의 단독 또는 혼합배양을 실시한 결과, 혼합배양, IMC-1 균주 및 St. thermophilus 순으로 산 생성력이 높았으며, 유산구균 단독배양 및 혼합배양에서는 시간이 경과함에 따라 치즈 향기가 증가하는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 또한 10% skim milk medium에서 혼합배양에 의한 최적의 유산발효 시간은 산 생성력 및 공존 균수 등을 고려할 때, yeast extract 0.1% 첨가시에는 16시간, 0.5% 첨가시에는 12시간 배양하는 것이었다. IMC-1이 생산한 항균성 물질은 Escherichia coli O157을 배양 24시간째 2 log정도 감소시켰고, 48시간 배양 후에는 피검균이 검출되지 않았다. 또한 Shigella flexneri는 배양 4시간째 2 log이상 감소하였고, 6시간 배양 후에는 검출되지 않아 항균성 물질은 강한 살균작용을 나타냄을 알 수 있었다.
