| Abstract: | The conditions for preparation and regeneration of the protoplasts of M. olivoasterospora were developed. It was found that effective formation of the protoplasts required preliminary cultivation of M. olivoasterospora in the medium containing glycine in a concentration inhibiting its growth at least by 60-80 per cent. The strains studied markedly differed in their sensitivity to glycine and were highly sensitive to it. The efficacy of the protoplast formation depended on the culture age and increased with the use of the lytic enzyme 3 of Cytophaga dissolvens. The possibility and advisability of the use of prolonged lysis of the Micromonospora cell walls were shown. A rich organic medium was used for regeneration of the protoplasts. |
