摘要 |
The present invention relates to a novel enzyme capable of producing peptides easily, inexpensively and at high yield without going through a complex synthesis method. More particularly, the present invention provides a novel enzyme that catalyzes a peptide synthesis reaction from a carboxy component and an amine component, a microbe that produces this enzyme, and an inexpensive dipeptide production method that uses this enzyme or this microbe. A novel enzyme was found that efficiently synthesizes peptide from newly discovered bacteria belonging to the genus Empedobacter, and a method for producing dipeptide both easily and inexpensively was found. |
