  • METHODS AND STRAINS FOR THE PRODUCTION OF SARCINAXANTHIN AND DERIVATIVES THEREOF
    Publication number: 20130130312
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a new strain of Micrococcus luteus, named Otnes7, which is superior to known strains in its ability to synthesise the carotenoid sarcinaxanthin and a method of producing sarcinaxanthin or a derivative thereof, said method comprising introducing into and expressing in a host cell one or more nucleic acid molecules encoding an activity in the sarcinaxanthin biosynthetic pathway.

  • Nucleotide sequences of coryneform bacteria coded for proteins participating in L-serine metabolism and method for microbial production of L-serine
    Patent number: 8119374
    Abstract: This invention relates to the nucleotide sequence of coryneform bacteria coding for proteins which are involved in L-serine metabolism with reduced and switched off L-serine dehydratase activity. The invention also relates to microorganisms used in methods for producing L-serine.
    Type: Grant

    Date of Patent: February 21, 2012
    Assignee: Forschungszentrum Julich GmbH
    Inventors: Petra Peters-Wendisch, Roman Netzer, Lothar Eggeling, Hermann Sahm
  • Nucleotide sequences that encode deregulated phosphoglycerate dehydrogenases of coryneform bacteria and method for producing L-serine
    Patent number: 7732176
    Abstract: The invention relates to nucleotide sequences of coryneform bacteria that encode proteins that are involved in the biosynthesis of L-serine and to a method for producing L-serine. According to the invention, at least 79 amino acids at the C terminus of the wild-type serA sequence are deleted, thereby producing a 3-phosphoglycerate dehydrogenase having a reduced feedback inhibition by L-serine vis-à-vis the wild-type sequence.
