STRAIN OF BACTERIUM RHODOCOCCUS ERYTHROPOLIS AS PRODUCER OF NITRILE HYDRATASE

摘要

FIELD: biotechnology, microbiology, biochemistry. SUBSTANCE: strain of bacterium species Rhodococcus erythropolis shows high level of nitrile hydratase activity. Strain is deposited in Regional profiled collection of alkanotrophic microorganisms of Institute of ecology and genetics of microorganisms of Russian Academy of Science (Ural Department) at No 84. Said microorganism exhibits rapid growth in simple organomineral media and high activity of nitrile hydratase. Invention can be used in biotechnological processes of amides preparing, in part, acrylamide and nicotinamide. EFFECT: valuable properties of strain. 2 tbl, 4 ex
