Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP2005040098
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:
To provide a method for acquiring a new acetic acid tolerance gene, breeding acetobacter having improved acetic acid tolerance by using the acquired acetic acid tolerance gene and improving the acetic acid tolerance of a microorganism belonging to acetobacter and provide a method for producing food vinegar having high acetic acid concentration in high efficiency by using the acetobacter having improved acetic acid tolerance.
The invention provides a DNA encoding a protein TPI expressed by (A) a protein containing a specific amino acid sequence or (B) a protein having the specific amino acid sequence wherein one or more amino acids are substituted, deleted. inserted, added or inverted and having a function to improve acetic acid tolerance.
