Kazunaga Yazawa,Keiko Araki,Noriko Okazaki,Kazuo Watanabe,Chikako Ishikawa,Akira Inoue,Naganori Numao,Kiyosi Kondo +7 more
TL;DR: About 5,000 strains of marine microorganisms were screened for eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA)-producing ability, which was detected in 88 of them, all of the latter were found to be obligate aerobic, Gram-negative, motile, short rod-shaped bacteria.

Process for production of eicosapentaenoic acid
TL;DR: In this article, a process for the production of (optionally lipid containing) eicosapentaenoic acid comprises the steps of a) culturing a microorganism capable of producing lipid containing eico-saliency, and b) recovering the (optional lipid-containing) eico -saliency from the cultured product.
Journal ArticleDOI
Conversion of the Salmonella phase 1 flagellin gene fliC to the phase 2 gene fljB on the Escherichia coli K-12 chromosome.
TL;DR: The mechanisms for gene conversion between the two genes are discussed and also some intriguing aspects of flagellar antigenic specificities in various Salmonella serovars from the viewpoint of gene conversion.

Microbial process for production of eicosapentaenoic acid
TL;DR: A process for the production of eicosapentaenoic acid comprising the steps of a) culturing a microorganism capable of producing lipid containing eico-saliency acid belonging to a genus selected from the group of Pseudomonas, Alteromonas and Shewanella, and b) recovering the lipid containing Eico-Saliency acid from the cultured product.
Journal ArticleDOI
A melibiose transporter and an operon containing its gene in Enterobacter cloacae.
Noriko Okazaki,Xu Xing Jue,Hideki Miyake,Masayuki Kuroda,Tadashi Shimamoto,Tomofusa Tsuchiya +5 more
TL;DR: Inducible melibiose transport activity in cells of Enterobacter cloacae IID977 is detected and H+, but not Na+, was found to be the coupling cation for this transporter, which has high sequence similarity with the lactose transporter (LacY) and the raffinoseporter (RafB).
