Abstract:

In the present study, through mutagenizing Streptomyces hygroscopicus CCTCC M203062 with UV and N-implantation, a mutant strain BB-2 with TGase activity of 7.19 U/ml was obtained. Then a new stain DG-1 resistant to 2-deoxy-D-glucose (2-DG) repression was obtained from the mutant strain BB-2 by repeated UV radiation, with good genetic stability and TGase activity of 9.21 U/ml, which was higher 118.5% than that of the original strain CCTCC M203062.

Key words: TGase, Streptomyces hygroscopicus, UV mutagenization, N+-implantation, 2-deoxy-D-glucose
