Lactobacillus casei SW-M1으로부터 lactose 이용 pPLac Plasmid를 분리하였다. 이 plasmid에 lactose이용 유전자가 존재하는지를 확이하기 위하여 plasmid curing을 실시한 결과, acriflavin 8mg/ml 과 11 mg/ml EtBr를 처리한 후 , 3차 접종 배양의 경우에 curing 빈도가 가장 높았다. Lac와 plasmid가 cured 된 $Lac^{+}$strain의 당 이용능을 조사한 결고, glucose lactosidasedldydsmd은 불변이나, lactosedldydsmd만이 $Lac^{+}$strain에서 감소하였다 pPLac plasmid의 lactose 분해능은 $\beta$-galactosidase 에 의한 것이 아니고, phospho-$\beta$-galactosidase 에 의한 것으로 확인되었다. $Lac^{+}$strain의 carbohydrate가 막투과시 PTS과 관련이 있는가를 조사한 결과ㅏ lactose-PTS가 가장 활성이 높았으며, 그 다음이 galactose-PTS, glucose-PTS 로 나타났다. 그러므로 lactose는 lactose-PTS(lactose-phosphotransferase system)에 의하여 glucose와 galactose-6-phosphate로 분해됨을 알 수 있었다. Phospho-$\beta$-galactosidase의 induction 실험에서는 galactoserk 가장 높은 induction 효과를 보여 주었으며, lactose와 glucose는 높은 수준의 induction을 나타내었으며, IPTG는 induction 효과가 없었다. Glucosedh lactose 배지에서 L. casie는 diauxic growth나 phospho-$\beta$-galactosidase합성을 조사한 결과, catabolite repression을 받지 않는 것으로 나타났다.

A plasminogen kringle domain 1 to 3, rKl-3, was expressed in Escherichia coli under the control of T7 promoter. For the cost-effective production of rKl-3, the induction process was analyzed and optimized. Induction characteristics with lactose were analyzed in terms of induction time and inducer concentration in various culture conditions including batch and high-cell-density fed-batch cultures. In the fed-batch culture, the induction around 6 h after initiation of the DO-stat fed-batch culture resulted in the highest expression level of rKI-3 among the induction points examined. The highest demand of oxygen at this point was crucial for the maximum expression level of rKI-3. As the lactose concentration increased, the expression level also increased, though the expression level showed a plateau above a concentration of 14 mM of lactose. Lactose acted less specifically than IPTG since most of it was hydrolyzed to glucose and galactose. However, using lactose, the cell growth and the maximum expression level of rKl-3 increased by 20% and 24%, respectively, compared with those using IPTG in the fed-batch culture. The lactose seemed to be hydrolyzed by intracellular and extracellular $\beta$-galactosidase liberated by cell lysis at the same time. Residual concentration of glucose was maintained to a a limit of detection by high performance liquid chromatography, and galactose was not consumed by the host strain Escherichia coli BL2l(DE3).

This examined some conditions for the induction of ${\beta}$-D-galactosidase synthesis in Candida kefyr CBS 834. The optimal pH, temperature, and inoculum size either for growth or${\beta}$-D-galactosidase synthesis were 5.5, $30^{\circ}C$ and above 0.2 at A610nm, respectively. Enzyme activity began to increase at 2h after the addition of inducer, and continued to increase linearly up to $2{\sim}3h$ before reaching stationary phase, and thereafter its activity was decreased. ${\beta}$-D-galactosidase was induced either by lactose or galactose but not either by glucose or ethanol. The greater activity of ${\beta}$-D-galactosidase on galactose than on lactose indicated that the former might be natural inducer for ${\beta}$-D-galactosidase synthesis. The rate of its induction as a function of lactose concentration showed that enzyme activity increased linearly above 4mM, while it was very low below that. Glucose represed the induction of ${\beta}$-D-galactosidase, and the period of adaptation to inducer from other carbon sources was relatively short.

토양으로부터 $\beta$-mannanase활성이 우수한 균주를 분리하여 형태학적, 생화학적 동정과정을 거쳐 Bacillus subtilis JS-1으로 동정하였다. 분리균이 생산하는 $\beta$-mannanase 효소의 최적활성은 55$^{\circ}C$와 pH 5.0이었다. 탄소원이 다른 배지에서 배양한 분리 균주의 상등액을 전기영동하여 효소활성을 관찰한 결과 탄소원에 상관없이 분자량 130kDa에 해당하는 단일 단백질만이 효소 활성을 나타내었다 Bacillus subtilis JS-1은 탄소원으로 lactose와 locust bean gum이 존재할 때 $\beta$-mannanase 생산성이 크게 증가하는 것으로 나타났으며, lactose와 locust bean gum이 각각 0.5 % 존재할 때 배양 상등액의 $\beta$-mannanase 활성은 30U/ml과 45U/ml로 탄소원이 없는 대조구에 비해 최대 18배 정도 생산성이 증가하였다. 배지에 locust bean gum을 첨가하였을 때 효소 생산성 뿐만 아니라 균체의 성장도 함께 증가하는 것으로 보아 분리균주는 locust bean gum을 분해하여 에너지원으로 이용하는 것으로 판단된다

The structural $\beta$-galactosidase gene (lacZ) from Lactococcus lactis ssp. lactis 7962 was cloned into plamid vector pKF18, which was designated as pKF-gal. Expression of the lacZ from L. lactis 7962 was found to be higher when cells were grown at 3$0^{\circ}C$ than 37$^{\circ}C$. Maximum $\beta$-galactosidase activity was obtained when E. coli/pKF-gal was cultivated for 6hr at 3$0^{\circ}C$ and for 3hr at 37$^{\circ}C$, and L. lactis 7962 was grown for 8hr at 3$0^{\circ}C$. Enzyme induction was achieved by the addition of lactose, galactose, or lactose+IPTG to growing culture. The addition of glucose had no effect on enzyme induction.

The effect of carbon sources on nisin Z biosynthesis in Lactococcus lactis subsp. lactis A164 was studied in batch culture using M17 broth containing different carbon sources. Among the eleven carbon sources tested, glucose, sucrose, and lactose were suitable carbon sources for cell growth of L. lactis A164. In particular, cells grown on lactose produced at least 3-fold greater amount of nisin Z than those on other carbon sources. Galactose resulted in less amount of cell mass than did sucrose or glucose, but gave a higher level of nisin Z activity. Northern blot analysis revealed. that lactose increased the transcription of the nisZ pre-peptide gene. Although galactose was less efficient than lactose, it increased the transcription of nisZ along with a higher level of nisin Z than did sucrose and glucose. These results suggest that the increased nisin Z production is correlated with the induction of nisZ by lactose and galactose. Among all the carbon sources tested, no remarkable differences were observed in nisRK and nisFEG transcripts, indicating that the lactose- or galactose-mediated induction is unique to the nisZ promoter.

Thermus caldophilus GK24 was selected as sources of thermostable $\beta$-galactosidase from a survey of genus Thermus. T. caldophilus GK24 (Tca) $\beta$-galactosidase was found to be inducible. The enzyme was optimally active at 75$\circ$C. Enzyme induction was achieved by addition of lactose, galactose and cellobiose to basal media. The addition of glucose to culture media had a repressive effect on further enzyme synthesis. T caldophilus GK24 was tested for production of $\beta$-galactosidase by addition of various concentration of lactose, galactose and cellobiose to standard media. Cellobiose was found to be effective for the $\beta$-galactosidase induction. The optimal induction medium for production of $\beta$-galactosidase was composed of 0.2% cellobiose, 0.3% bactotryptone, 0.3% yeast extract, basal salts and Tris/HCI(pH 7.8). The activity of the enzyme in the optimal induction medium increased nearly 16.5-fold compared to the standard medium. Tca $\beta$-galactosidase was detected when cell extracts was subjected to electrophoresis in a nondenaturing polyacryamide gel and stained for activity with 6-bromo-2-naphtyl-$\beta$-D-galactopyranoside(BNG).

A recombinant putative dextransucrase (DexT) was produced from Leuconostoc citreum KM20 as a 160 kDa protein, but its productivity was very low (264 U/l). For optimization, we examined enzyme activity in 7 Escherichia coli strains with inducer molecules such as lactose or IPTG. E. coli BL21-CodonPlus(DE3)-RIL exhibited the highest enzyme activity with lactose. Finally, DexT activity was remarkably increased by 12-fold under the optimized culture conditions of a cell density to start induction ($OD_{600}$) of 0.95, a lactose concentration of 7.5 mM, and an induction temperature of $17^{\circ}C$. These results may effectively apply to the heterologous expression of other large DexT genes.

재조합 인간상피세포 성장인자(rhEGF)가 E. coli BL21(pYHB101) 균주를 사용하여 발현되었다. 10g/L glucose를 첨가한 변형된 MBL 배지를 사용하여 10 $\mu\textrm{m}$ IPTG/lactose로 2시간 동안 유도배양한 후 27$^{\circ}C$에서 48시간 동안 배양하였을 때 44.5 mg/L의 rhEGF가 발현되었다. 상기의 결과는 E. coli BL2l(pYHB101)를 사용하여 rhEGF를 발현시 lactose를 IPTG와 동일한 유도 물질로 사용 가능하다는 것을 시사하는 것이다. 회분식 배양에서 glucose를 10 g/L 첨가한 변형된 MBL 배지에 유도물질로 10 $\mu\textrm{m}$ lactose를 사용하였으며 28시간 동안 배양하였을 때 최대 45 mg/L의 rhEGF가 발현되었다. 유가식 배양에서 정지기에 0.5%(w/v) lactose와 0.25%(w/v) yeast extract를 첨가하였을 때 160mg/L의 rhEGF가 발현되었으며 94.3%가 분비되었다. 이에 비하여 유도기에 lactose를 첨가한 경우는 120 mg/L의 rhEGF가 발현되었으며 cytoplasm으로 발현된 불용성 봉입체의 비율은 20.9%에 달하였다. 이것은 lactose의 첨가시기가 E. coli BL2l(pYHB101)로부터 soluble rhEGF의 생성에 중요하다는 것을 확인한 결과이다.

The Escherichia coli heat-labile enterotoxin B subunit (HLT-B) is one of the most powerful mucosal immunogens and known mucosal adjuvants. However, the induction of high levels of HLT-B expression in E. coli has proven a difficult proposition. Therefore, in this study, the HLT-B gene was cloned from pathogenic E. coli and expressed as a fusion protein with GST (glutathion S-transferase) in E. coli BL2l (DE3), in an attempt to harvest a large quantity of soluble HLT-B. The culture conditions, including the culture media used, temperature, pH and the presence of lactose as an inducer, were all optimized in order to obtain an increase in the expression of soluble GST-rHLT-B. The biological activity of the purified rHLT-B was assayed in a series of GMI-ELISA experiments. The findings of these trials indicated that the yield of soluble recombinant GST-rHLT-B could be increased by up to 3-fold, as compared with that seen prior to the optimization, and that lactose was a more efficient alternative inducer than IPTG. The production of rHLT-B, at 92 % purity, reached an optimal level of 96 mg/l in a 3.7 L fermentor. The specific GM1 binding ability of the purified rHLT-B was determined to be almost identical to that of standard CTB.
