摘要
We isolated a mutant from Candida maltosa lacking beta-isopropylmalate dehydrogenase (leu2), which was able to excrete alpha- and beta-isopropylmalate into the culture medium. The effects of incubation time, L-leucine concentration, and carbon and nitrogen sources on beta-isopropylmalate production were examined. In the presence of 20 g glucose/1, 5 g NH4H2PO4/1 and 75 mg L-leucine/1 in a minimal salt medium C. maltosa G587 produced about 900 mg beta-isopropylmalate/1 during 72 h of growth. A simple procedure to isolate both dicarboxylic acids from the medium is described.
