  • Title: Characterization of Mesorhizobium loti L-rhamnose isomerase and its application to L-talose production.

    Journal: Biosci Biotechnol Biochem; 2011; 75(5):1006-9. PubMed ID: 21597169.
    Abstract:
    The L-rhamnose isomerase gene (rhi) of Mesorhizobium loti was cloned and expressed in Escherichia coli, and then characterized. The enzyme exhibited activity with respect to various aldoses, including D-allose and L-talose. Application of it in L-talose production from galactitol was achieved by a two-step reaction, indicating that it can be utilized in the large-scale production of L-talose.
