Geeni, joka koodaa eikosapeutaanihappoa syntetisoivia entsyymejä, ja menetelmä eikospentaanihapon valmistamiseksi

摘要

An advantageous process for producing eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) useful as medicine, pesticide, food, feed and the like by the genetic recombination process by taking a gene coding for an EPA biosynthetase group from a microorganism. EPA is produced by taking a gene coding for an EPA biosynthetase group, preparing a plasmid by linking the gene with a vector, transforming Escherichia coli with the plasmid, and culturing the transformed Escherichia coli.
