Penicillin acyltransferase in Penicillium chrysogenum.
Isotopic exchange of (35)S between penicillins and 6-amino-penicillanic acid (6-APA) was observed in cell-free extracts of Penicillium chrysogenum. Sulfhydryl-containing compounds were required for activity. Dithiothreitol, dithioerythritol, mercaptoethanol, and glutathione served as activators. The acyltransferase was purified threefold by adsorption on calcium phosphate gel at pH 6 and elutio...
متن کاملIncreased penicillin production in Penicillium chrysogenum production strains via balanced overexpression of isopenicillin N acyltransferase.
Intense classical strain improvement has yielded industrial Penicillium chrysogenum strains that produce high titers of penicillin. These strains contain multiple copies of the penicillin biosynthesis cluster encoding the three key enzymes: δ-(l-α-aminoadipyl)-L-cysteinyl-D-valine synthetase (ACVS), isopenicillin N synthase (IPNS), and isopenicillin N acyltransferase (IAT). The phenylacetic aci...
متن کاملSulfate utilization by penicillin-producing mutants of Penicillium chrysogenum.
A great deal of work has been directed toward increasing the yield of penicillin in fermentations with Penicillium chrysogenum. The spectacular increase in yield which has been achieved has resulted, in the main, from two approaches. In the first approach, mutant strains of P. chrysogenum produced by spontaneous variation or by the action of mutagenic agents such as nitrogen mustard or ultravio...
متن کاملPenicillin production by wild isolates of Penicillium chrysogenum in Pakistan
The present study was aimed at exploring the native wild isolates of Penicillium chrysogenum series in terms of their penicillin production potential. Apart from the standard medium, the efforts were made to utilize suitable agro-industrial wastes for the maximum yield of penicillin. Two series of P. chrysogenum were isolated from local sources and named as P. chrysogenum series UAF R1 and P. c...
متن کاملA Comparison of Penicillin-producing Strains of Penicillium notatum-chrysogenum.
Sampling and storage. The fermentations were conducted in the 100-gallon tanks described by Stefaniak et al. (1946). Samples were removed periodically into 500-ml flasks and ifitered. A 0.5-ml filtered sample was immediately diluted for penicillin assay by addition to previously chilled phosphate buffer in volumetric flasks (4.0 g KH2P04 and 1.0 g K2HPO4 per 500 ml solution in distilled water; ...
