Research Abstract |
6-Deoxy-D-psicose productivity was raised yield to 6.6% from 4.0% through the improvement in this study. The optimum L-rhamnose isomerase among a plenty of them was selected to produce from 6-deoxy-D-psicose to 6-Deoxy -D-allose. These results suggested that mass-production step of both rare deoxy sugars was established. Furthermore, the various isomerases reactivity for 6-deoxy-ketohexoses was overall investigated. For production of other deoxy sugars, two useful microbes was screened and then some enzymes relating rare sugars production was revealed basic properties.
