Abstract: Isolated polypeptide sequence having the sequence of SEQ ID NO:1 or muteins thereof having the ability to bind cAMP and repress the expression of the aceB gene of C. glutamicum and which can be obtained from SEQ ID NO:1 by inserting, deleting or substituting up to 20% of the amino acids.

Abstract: An industrial truck has a steering axle with two axle tree bolster systems located at a lateral distance from each other. Each system has an axle body with an axle shaft (1) and an axle tree bolster (2) located on the lower end of the axle shaft (1). The axle tree bolster (2) and the axle shaft (1) are individual components that are connected with each other. The axle tree bolster (2) is preferably detachably fastened to the axle shaft (1). The rotational position of the axle tree bolster (2) relative to the axle shaft (1) can be adjustable. Means can also be provided for the positive and/or non-positive transmission of a torque from the axle shaft (1) to the axle tree bolsters (2).

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing an amino acid comprising culturing a microorganism of the genus Corynebacterium or Brevibacterium wherein said microorganism is partially or completely deficient in at least one of the gene loci of the group which is formed by otsAB, treZ and treS, and subsequent isolation of the amino acid from the culture medium.

Abstract: The present invention features methods of increasing the production of a fine chemical, e.g., lysine from a microorganism, e.g., Corynebacterium by way of deregulating an enzyme encoding gene, i.e., fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase. In a preferred embodiment, the invention provides methods of increasing the production of lysine in Corynebacterium glutamicum by way of increasing the expression of fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase activity. The invention also provides a novel process for the production of lysine by way of regulating carbon flux towards oxaloacetate (OAA). In a preferred embodiment, the invention provides methods for the production of lysine by way of utilizing fructose or sucrose as a carbon source.

Abstract: The invention relates to methods for the production of sulfur-containing fine chemicals, in particular L-methionine, by fermentation using bacteria in which a nucleotide sequence encoding an S-adenosylmethionine synthase (metK) gene is expressed.
