PROCESS FOR THE PREPARATION OF ASCORBIC ACID-2-PHOSPHATE

摘要

Ascorbic acid-2-phosphate (AsA2P) is produced in improved yield by culturing an E.coli transformant, or an enzyme containing extract prepared from such an E.coli transformant, the E.coli being transformed with a recombinant DNA insert containing a gene encoding an AsA phosphorylating enzyme obtained from a microorganism of the genus Pseudomonas, especially Pseudomonas azotocolligans.
