PURINE-DERIVED SUBSTANCE-PRODUCING BACTERIUM AND METHOD FOR PRODUCING PURINE-DERIVED SUBSTANCE

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To improve fermentation productivity of a purine-derived substance such as purine nucleoside and/or purine nucleotide. SOLUTION: The purine-derived substance is produced by culturing a Bacillus bacterium which has an ability to produce a purine-derived substance and has enhanced activity of an enzyme of the oxidative pentose phosphate pathway. The purine-derived substance is produced and accumulated in the medium or in the bacterial cells, and can be collected from the medium or the bacterial cells. COPYRIGHT: (C)2007,JPO&INPIT
