Studies on the overproduction of indole-containing metabolites by a methanol-utilizing yeast : Hansenula polymorpha.

Applied biochemistry and biotechnology

Longin R, Cooney CL, Demain AL.
PMID: 24234284
Appl Biochem Biotechnol. 1982 Jul;7(4):281-93. doi: 10.1007/BF02798306.

Production of indole-containing metabolites ("indoles") from methanol has been studied using a mutant ofHansenula polymorpha resistant to 5-fluorotryptophan. Whereas the wild-type culture produces only a small amount of indoles, the mutant is partially deregulated and overproduces indoles. Indoles production...

Kinetics of loss of a recombinant plasmid in Bacillus subtilis.

Biotechnology and bioengineering

Shoham Y, Demain AL.
PMID: 18597317
Biotechnol Bioeng. 1991 Apr 25;37(10):927-35. doi: 10.1002/bit.260371006.

Recombinant plasmid pCEDS is structurally unstable in Bacillus subtilis cultures. We have previously shown that stability can be independently increased by changing from a complex medium supporting high growth rates to a chemically-defined medium supporting a lower growth rate...

Enrichment of Auxotrophic Mutants in Streptomyces griseus.

Applied and environmental microbiology

Werner RG, Demain AL.
PMID: 16345642
Appl Environ Microbiol. 1980 Sep;40(3):675-7. doi: 10.1128/aem.40.3.675-677.1980.

A method for the isolation and enrichment of tryptophan auxotrophic mutants of the indolmycin-producing strain Streptomyces griseus ATCC 12648 was developed, using penicillin selection. With UV irradiation of 2.2 x 10 muW cm, a mutation rate to tryptophan auxotrophy...

Derivation of Aromatic Amino Acid Mutants from a Methanol-Utilizing Yeast, Hansenula polymorpha.

Applied and environmental microbiology

Denenu EO, Demain AL.
PMID: 16345763
Appl Environ Microbiol. 1981 May;41(5):1088-96. doi: 10.1128/aem.41.5.1088-1096.1981.

Three classes of mutants, deregulated to enhance the flow of aromatic intermediates through the tryptophan biosynthetic branch, were obtained. 5-Fluorotryptophan, an antimetabolite of tryptophan, was employed to obtain one class of deregulated mutants. By sequential resistance development, three resistant...

Dependence of betaine stimulation of vitamin b(12) overproduction on protein synthesis.

Applied and environmental microbiology

Fa YH, Kusel JP, Demain AL.
PMID: 16346536
Appl Environ Microbiol. 1984 May;47(5):1067-9. doi: 10.1128/aem.47.5.1067-1069.1984.

The betaine-stimulated differential synthesis of vitamin B(12), i.e., the increase in B(12) per increase in dry cell weight, by Pseudomonas denitrificans was inhibited by rifampin and chloramphenicol but not by benzylpenicillin and carbenicillin at concentrations of antibiotic that inhibit...

Saccharification of Complex Cellulosic Substrates by the Cellulase System from Clostridium thermocellum.

Applied and environmental microbiology

Johnson EA, Sakajoh M, Halliwell G, Madia A, Demain AL.
PMID: 16346009
Appl Environ Microbiol. 1982 May;43(5):1125-32. doi: 10.1128/aem.43.5.1125-1132.1982.

True cellulase activity has been demonstrated in cell-free preparations from the thermophilic anaerobe Clostridium thermocellum. Such activity depends upon the presence of Ca and a thiol-reducing agent of which dithiothreitol is the most promising. Under these conditions, native (cotton)...

Properties of acetate kinase activity in Clostridium thermocellum cell extracts.

Applied biochemistry and biotechnology

Lin WR, Lee CC, Hsu JJ, Hamel JF, Demain AL.
PMID: 18574732
Appl Biochem Biotechnol. 1998 Feb;69(2):137-45. doi: 10.1007/BF02919395.

Acetate kinase (EC 2.7.2.1) is involved in the wasteful production of acetate during conversion of cellulose to ethanol by Clostridium thermocellum. The properties of this enzyme activity in C. thermocellum cell extracts were determined. Optimum enzyme activity was at...
