Chitosanase cDNA derived from the fungus Fusarium solani was expressed in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. By using this expression system, two amino acid residues responsible for catalysis were determined, and an inverting-type reaction mechanism was also confirmed. A group of genes specifically expressed at the stage of fruit body development was isolated from the basidiomycete Flammulina velutipes. One of the genes encoded a polypeptide having a primary sequence similar to those of polysaccharide deacetylases. A metagenome Library was constructed from choromosomal DNAs prepared from whole bacterial cells in soil. From this library, E. coli transformant exhibiting a red fluorescent light was isolated and a gene structure in the cloned DNA fragment was analyzed., Article, 先進ファイバー工学研究教育拠点研究成果報告書 10: 52-53(2004)}, title = {15-2-8 :キチン・キトサンの酵素変換による高機能化に関する研究}, year = {2004} }
