Abstract: PURPOSE:To enable extraction of an intracellular substance from yeast cells at a low cost without any troublesome operation by applying an osmotic pressure to shock yeast fungi under weak alkaline conditions without mechanically crushing the yeast fungi. CONSTITUTION:Prescribed common salt is added to a culture medium such as YPD culture medium (containing 1% yeast extract, 2% peptone and 2% glucose) for yeasts to culture a halotolerant yeast such as Zygosaccharomyces.rouxii and further a yeast such as Saccharomyces.cerevisiae with low halotolerance and the yeast fungi are then collected and subsequently washed with a saline solution at a concentration about equal to that of the common salt in the culture medium. The washed fungal cells are then suspended in a buffer solution such as alkaline sodium hydrogencarbonate.sodium carbonate buffer solution at pH about 9-10 without containing the common salt and incubated to carry out osmotic pressure shock. Thereby, simple operation can be performed without contamination by cell walls, cell cross sections, etc., and the fungal cells in a large amount can be treated at a low cost due to no use of a special chemical.

Abstract: PURPOSE:To obtain a new fused strain capable of providing a soft type SHOCHU (low-class distilled spirit), having good aroma and manifesting the acid resistance, high-temperature fermenting properties, excellent aroma and high yield of alcohol by subjecting mutual strains belonging to Saccharomyces.cerevisiae to protoplast fusion. CONSTITUTION:The objective fused yeast is obtained by mutually subjecting strains belonging to Saccharomyces.cerevisiae to protoplast fusion, e.g. Saccharomyces.cerevisiae KS2 (FERM P-12233). This fused yeast is obtained by preparing a yeast fungal cell suspension from, e.g. respective lysine-requiring mutant strains of Saccharomyces.cerevisiae KUMAMOTO yeast for SAKE (Japanese rice wine) and Saccharomyces.cerevisiae S-4, then treating each with a protoplast preparing solution containing a yeast cell wall digesting enzyme, subsequently mixing equal amounts of both the protoplasts, then adding a fusion agent, carrying out the cell fusion, further culturing the protoplast mixture solution and separating the formed colony.

Abstract: PURPOSE:To prepare the subject complex useful as a raw material for asymmetric organic synthesis reagents in a simple process in a good yield by asymmetrically acylating the racemates of a specific compound with a lipase and subsequently hydrolyzing the racemates. CONSTITUTION:The racemates of a compound of the formula I (R1 is alkyl, alkoxy) is asymmetrically acylated with a lipase, and the obtained ester is separated from the unreacted alcohol, followed by hydrolyzing the ester, whereby the dextro notatory optically active isomer and the levorotatory optically active isomer are obtained. The lipase is preferably a lipase originated from e.g. readily available Pseudomonas fluorescence.

Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To obtain a new modified synthetic enzyme in which tyrosine constituting the active center of the region A of a cyclodextrin-synthesizing enzyme is replaced with another amino acid, and which gives the reaction product greatly high in the amount of the synthesized α-cyclodextrin. SOLUTION: This new modified cyclodextrin-synthesizing enzyme wherein the 100-tyrosine constituting the active center of the region A of a cyclodextrin- synthesizing enzyme having an amino acid sequence of the formula is replaced with another amino acid such as tryptophane, phenylalanine, leucine or aspartic acid. The action of the enzyme on a substrate such as starch can give the reaction product greatly high in the content of the α-cyclodextrin. The modified enzyme is obtained by extracting the chromosome from Bacillus macerans IAM 1243, multiplying the chromosome with PCR using a synthesized primer containing the base sequence of the cyclodextrin-synthesizing enzyme, subjecting the multiplied chromosome to a site-specific mutation so as to replace the tyrosine of the active center of the obtained gene with another amino acid.

Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To obtain the subject new primer consisting of oligonucleotides having specific base sequences respectively, capable of amplifying the 18S ribosome RNA of plant worm, determining and analyzing quickly the base sequence and identifying the plant worm's strain. SOLUTION: This new primer consists of oligonucleotides having base sequences of formula I and formula II, respectively, and has the following advantages: the 18S ribosome RNA gene of plant worm can be amplified by PCR process; the base sequence of the gene can be determined and analyzed quickly; the plant worm's strain capable of producing pharmacologically active substance can be identified based on its genetic characteristics; and exploration efficiency of new physiologically active substance-productive bacteria can be remarkably improved. As the plant worm (e.g. Cordyceps sinensis) belongs to Ascomycetes, this new primer is obtained by the following process: several kinds of partial base sequences are synthesized based on the base sequence of the 18S ribosome RNA gene of a strain (e.g. Sclerotinia sclerotiorum) as other Ascomycetes, and from these partial base sequences, one that enables amplification of the plant worm's gene is selected.
