In a 5-L fermentor (NBS-MF 105), Saccharomyces cerevisiae W303-181 (1.0 g dry matter/L) was inoculated into 3.0 L of liquid medium containing glucose (10 or 20 g/L), yeast nitrogen base (YNB, 3.7 or 7.4 g/L), l-histidine (0.02 g/L), l-tryptophan (0.02 g/L), uracil (0.02 g/L), and adenine (0.02 g/L). The culture was carried out batchwise for 12 or 24 h at 30 degrees C, pH 4.6 or 5.7, aeration of 0, 0.8, 1.7 or 2.2 vvm, and agitation of 400 rpm. The highest G6PDH productivity (10.5 U/L.h) and specific activity (320 U/mg of protein) occurred at aeration of 2.2 vvm, pH 5.7, 10 g/L of glucose, and 3.7 g/L of YNB. The G6PDH specific activity attained was comparable with those of commercial preparations, which are between 50 and 600 U/mg of protein.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D009584 Nitrogen An element with the atomic symbol N, atomic number 7, and atomic weight [14.00643; 14.00728]. Nitrogen exists as a diatomic gas and makes up about 78% of the earth's atmosphere by volume. It is a constituent of proteins and nucleic acids and found in all living cells.
D010957 Plasmids Extrachromosomal, usually CIRCULAR DNA molecules that are self-replicating and transferable from one organism to another. They are found in a variety of bacterial, archaeal, fungal, algal, and plant species. They are used in GENETIC ENGINEERING as CLONING VECTORS. Episomes,Episome,Plasmid
D003470 Culture Media Any liquid or solid preparation made specifically for the growth, storage, or transport of microorganisms or other types of cells. The variety of media that exist allow for the culturing of specific microorganisms and cell types, such as differential media, selective media, test media, and defined media. Solid media consist of liquid media that have been solidified with an agent such as AGAR or GELATIN. Media, Culture
D005285 Fermentation Anaerobic degradation of GLUCOSE or other organic nutrients to gain energy in the form of ATP. End products vary depending on organisms, substrates, and enzymatic pathways. Common fermentation products include ETHANOL and LACTIC ACID. Fermentations
D005947 Glucose A primary source of energy for living organisms. It is naturally occurring and is found in fruits and other parts of plants in its free state. It is used therapeutically in fluid and nutrient replacement.
