GENE FOR SUPPRESSING FORMATION OF HYDROGEN SULFIDE OF YEAST AND BREWING YEAST TRANSDUCED WITH THE SAME GENE

摘要

PURPOSE:To obtain a new gene useful for obtaining yeast having a small amount of hydrogen sulfide produced in beer. CONSTITUTION:A gene having a base sequence of the formula, suppressing an amount of hydrogen sulfide produced by yeast. The gene is obtained by cloning a DNA fragment (encoding 507 amino acid) having inhibitory action on hydrogen sulfide from a chromosome of Saccharomyces cerevisiae X-2,180 strain.
