Valery Vasilievich Samsonov has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 11746345
    Abstract: The present invention provides a method for producing an L-amino acid such as a branched-chain L-amino acid by fermentation using a bacterium of the family Enterobacteriaceae, particularly a bacterium belonging to the genus Escherichia, which has been modified to attenuate expression of the gshA gene.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: May 26, 2016
    Date of Patent: September 5, 2023
    Assignee: AJINOMOTO CO., INC.
    Inventors: Valery Vasilievich Samsonov, Natalia Sergeevna Eremina, Natalia Viktorovna Stoynova
  • Publication number: 20220213515
    Abstract: The present invention provides a method for producing 2-methyl-butyric acid by fermentation using a bacterium belonging to the order Enterobacterales which has been modified to attenuate expression of a tyrB gene encoding a protein having tyrosine aminotransferase activity. The method also allows for production of a byproduct substance of 2-methyl-butyric acid during fermentation of the Enterobacterales bacterium having 2-methyl-butyric acid-producing ability.

  • Patent number: 9896704
    Abstract: The present invention provides a method for producing L-isoleucine by fermentation using a bacterium belonging to the family Enterobacteriaceae which has been modified to overexpress the cycA gene. The method also allows reducing the amount of byproduct amino acids that are produced during fementative production of L-isoleucine using Enterobacteriaceae bacterium having an L-isoleucine-producing ability.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: April 13, 2016
    Date of Patent: February 20, 2018
    Assignee: AJINOMOTO CO., INC.
    Inventors: Christina Dmitrievna Hook, Valery Vasilievich Samsonov, Natalia Sergeevna Eremina, Natalia Viktorovna Stoynova, Tatiyana Sergeevna Sidorova
  • Patent number: 9574216
    Abstract: The present invention describes a method for producing a useful metabolite using a bacterium of the family Enterobacteriaceae, particularly a bacterium belonging to the genus Escherichia, which has been modified to contain a gene(s) expression system including elements of the LysR-type protein-regulated transcriptional machinery modified in such a way that auto-inducible positive feedback regulation of the system is mediated by a coinducer. The method is suitable for producing branched-chain L-amino acids, particularly L-valine, L-isoleucine and L-leucine; and D-pantothenic acid.
    Type: Grant
