SENSOR FOR NADP (H) AND DEVELOPMENT OF ALCOHOL DEHYDROGENASES

The present invention relates to an NADP(H) nanosensor comprising i) a nucleic acid sequence to which a regulator is capable of binding, wherein the oxidation state of the regulator depends on the NADP(H) availability; ii) a promoter sequence following the nucleic acid sequence i), to which an RNA polymerase is capable of binding, wherein the affinity of the RNA polymerase for the promoter sequence is influenced by the oxidation state of the regulator; iii) a nucleic acid sequence which is under the control of the promoter sequence ii) and which codes for an autofluorescent protein.

The present invention also relates to a cell, a method for isolating genes which code for NADP(H)-dependent enzymes, and the use of an NADP(H) nanosensor.

METHOD FOR PRODUCING FERMENTED FOOD OR BEVERAGE, AND ANAEROBIC FERMENTATION METHOD

The main purpose of this technique is to newly provide a technique whereby it becomes possible to shorten the time for anaerobic fermentation by reducing the concentration of oxygen contained in a raw material by a method other than an inert gas replacement method that requires the introduction of a facility. This technique provides a method for producing a fermented food or beverage, including a saccharide oxidase action step for allowing a saccharide oxidase to act on a portion or the whole of a saccharide in a raw material, and an anaerobic fermentation step for performing anaerobic fermentation. This technique also provides an oxygen concentration reducing agent for anaerobic fermentation use which contains a saccharide oxidase. This technique further provides an anaerobic fermentation method which includes a saccharide oxidase action step for allowing a saccharide oxidase to act on a portion or the whole of a saccharide in a raw material.
