DNA-molecules coding for FMDH control regions and structured gene for a protein having FMDH-activity and their uses.

摘要

The invention relates to DNA-molecules comprising DNA-sequences encoding control regions and the structural gene for a protein having formate dehydrogenase (FMDH) activity. Said DNA-molecules may be combined with DNA-sequences encoding foreign genes so as to bring these genes under the stringent control of the regulation of the FMDH regulatory sequences and/or may be combined to DNA-sequences coding for secretory signals. The invention further relates to recombinant vectors containing said DNA-molecules and micro-organisms containing said vectors or DNA-molecules. Furthermore, the invention relates to a process for producing a useful substance by producing this substance by culturing said micro-organisms and recovering the substance.
