Research Abstract |
We did molecular level study of membrane-bound quinoproteins or flavoproteins and respiratory chain of “oxidative fermentation”, especially for sorbose, dihydroxyacetone and acetic acid fermentations, of acetic acid bacteria. As the results we elucidated 1) electron transfer route of the respiratory chain 2) finding of novel oxidation reaction of the enzymes 3) findings of enzymes for intracellular assimilation and also we found novel enzymes based on the biochemical or bioinformatic analyses.
