Title:
NOVEL UNIDIRECTIONAL XYLOSE ISOMERASE AND METHOD FOR PRODUCTION OF D-GLUCOSE FROM MANNOSE USING THE SAME
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2011/056004
Kind Code:
A2
Abstract:
Disclosed is the conversion of mannose into glucose using a novel unidirectional xylose isomerase. This enzyme is effective for producing glucose from mannose which is found abundantly in algae. Also, a method is provided for producing glucose from mannose using the isomerase.
