Abstract: The present invention is related to nucleic acids coding for adhesion factors of group B streptococcus, adhesion factors of group B streptococcus and uses thereof. More particularly, the present invention is related to a polypeptide being such adhesion factors and comprising an amino acid sequence, whereby the amino acid sequence is selected from the group comprising SEQ ID NO 11 to SEQ ID NO 20, and the use of such polypeptide for the manufacture of a vaccine.

Abstract: The invention relates to isolated nucleotide sequences from Coryneform bacteria which code for the pck gene encoding the enzyme phosphoenol pyruvate carboxykinase (PEP carboxykinase). The invention also relates a process for the fermentative preparation of L-amino acids, in particular L-lysine, L-threonine, and L-glutamate by attenuation of the pck gene.

Abstract: The invention relates to nucleotide sequences coding for the accDA gene and to a process for the preparation of L-amino acids, especially L-lysine, by fermentation using corynebacteria in which the accDA gene is amplified.

Abstract: The invention concerns a DNA fragment located in front of the malate synthase gene of a coryne-form bacterium and isolated from the latter. Any structural gene which codes for a protein can be inserted after this DNA fragment. After transformation of such a construct into a coryne-form bacterium, expression of the structural gene inserted after the DNA fragment is regulated. The invention also concerns a process for synthesizing any protein by culturing a transformed coryne-form bacterium. A bacterium of this type contains in replicable form a DNA fragment isolated from the malate synthase gene of a coryne-form bacterium, and after which the structural gene which codes for the protein to be synthesized is inserted. Since expression of the structural gene which codes for the protein to be synthesized is regulated by the DNA located in front of it, the structural gene is expressed and the desired protein synthesized as soon as a suitable inducing agent is added to the medium.
