Abstract: A process for producing an L-amino acid, such as L-isoleucine, L-histidine, L-threonine and L-tryptophan, using bacterium belonging to the genus Escherichia is provided which comprises cultivating the L-amino acid-producing bacterium in a culture medium and collecting the L-amino acid from the culture medium, wherein the culture medium contains a mixture of glucose and pentose sugars, such as arabinose and xylose, as the main carbon source.

Abstract: The present invention is based on the discovery that nitric oxide (NO) is an important growth regulator in an intact developing organism. In particular, the present invention relates to a method of increasing in a mammal a population of hematopoietic stem cells which are capable of undergoing normal hematopoiesis, differentiation and maturation in hematopoietic tissue, wherein the hematopoietic tissue is contacted with at least one inhibitor of NO, such as one or more inhibitors of nitric oxide synthase (NOS), thereby producing hematopoietic tissue having an increased population of hematopoietic stem cells which are capable of undergoing normal hematopoiesis, differentiation and maturation. The present invention also relates to a method of increasing a population of cells in S phase in a tissue of a mammal, comprising contacting the tissue with an inhibitor (one or more) of NO, such as an inhibitor of NOS.
