PRODUCTION OF A LIPID ACYLTRANSFERASE FROM TRANSFORMED BACILLUS LICHENIFORMIS CELLS

摘要

The present invention relates to a method for the production of a lipid a cyltransferase comprising the steps of: (i) providing a Bacillus licheniform is cell; (ii) transforming the Bacillus licheniformis cell with a heterologo us nucleotide sequence encoding a lipid acyltransferase; and (iii) expressin g the lipid acyltransferase in the cell under the control of a promoter sequ ence. In addition, the present invention further relates to the use of Bacil lus licheniformis to express a lipid acyltransferase, a Bacillus licheniform is host cell comprising a heterologous lipid acyltransferase and a vector co mprising a nucleotide sequence encoding a lipid acyltransferase operably lin ked to a promoter sequence homologous to B. licheniformis.
