Abstract: | Summary A gene for allosteric lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) of Lactobacillus casei ATCC393 was transferred into Bacillus subtilis. The LDH was produced in a growth-associated type, and comprised up to 40 % of the total cellular protein. The maximum specific activity in the transformant was 208 U/mg protein which was approximately 16 times higher than in L. casei or in the previously constructed Escherichia coli transformant. |
