Abstract

PURPOSE:To form the titled substance in high yield and to collect it, by reacting <= a fixed amount of indole with L-serine in the presence of tryptophan synthetase. CONSTITUTION:In the presence of tryptophan synthetase obtained from a bacterium belonging to the genus Escherichia coli indole is reacted with L-serine. In the reaction, indole is added continuously or termittently in such a way that the indole concentration in the reaction solution is maintained in <=0.1wt%. The addition is carried out by adding powder indole, adding liquefied indole dropwise, or adding indole dissolved in methanol, etc. Consequently, the desired L- tryprophan slightly containing remaining indole in the reaction solution is obtained in high yield from indole and L-serine.

Many chemical synthesis methods and fermentation methods are known as methods for producing L-)liptophan, but in the case of chemical synthesis, the DL form is synthesized, so optical resolution is not required to obtain the L form. In addition, the fermentation method has drawbacks in terms of accumulation amount, yield, purification, wastewater treatment, etc., and these methods are far from being industrially advantageous production methods. Instead, the production of L-) liptophan by enzymatic methods has recently been in the spotlight, and in particular, the method of producing L-) liptophan from indole and L-serine using tryptophan synthetase is industrially very important. It is considered to be promising.

Traditionally, tryptophan synthetase has been synthesized by indole and L.
-It is known that it catalyzes the reaction to synthesize L-tryptophan from serine, but according to the findings of the present inventors, indole, which is a reaction substrate, inhibits enzyme activity when it reaches a high concentration of 0.1% by weight or higher. Therefore, it is not possible to charge a high concentration of indole all at once at the start of the reaction, and therefore the reaction must be carried out with a low indole concentration, so the concentration of L-)ributophane produced is usually several tμ.
The degree of oxidation was so low that it could not be used as a practical manufacturing method. Another method known to solve this problem is to add a nonionic surfactant to the reaction solution to form micelles with indole to control the dissolution of indole into the reaction solution. , this method usually has 5
It is necessary to add a surfactant at a fairly high concentration (more than 1% by weight), which causes problems in terms of cost, as well as problems in the purification and separation of tryptophan from the reaction solution or the wastewater treatment of the reaction waste solution, making it difficult for industrial use. It could hardly be called an advantageous method.

The present inventors have discovered that there is no residual indole in the reaction solution after the completion of the reaction, and L-) without reducing the activity of the enzyme.
As a result of various studies on reaction conditions for producing Liptov 7 at a high concentration, we found that indole was added continuously or intermittently to keep the indole concentration in the reaction solution at 0.1% by weight or less. The present invention was completed by discovering that L-)IJ butophane can be produced in high yield without any decrease in activity.

According to the method of the present invention, not only tryptophan is produced in a high yield, but also the indole concentration in the reaction solution is always controlled to a low concentration, so that almost no indole remains in the reaction solution at the end of the reaction. There is also the advantage of not having to do so, which significantly reduces the burden of subsequent purification. On the other hand, when high-concentration indole is added all at once at the start of the reaction, L-tryptophan can only be obtained at a very low concentration, and the amount of indole remaining in the reaction solution at the end of the reaction increases significantly. It has its drawbacks.
