| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The transcriptional factor which activates the transcription of gene encoding lipase was determined. Moreover, we found the alcohol dehydrogenase which plays important role for induction of lipase expression by stearyl alcohol. The EliA, a secretory protein, is essential for the lipase-producing bacterium to respond to stearyl alcohol.
