Embodiment 1

[0160] Construction of M013Y strain, which has enhanced 2-aminobutyric acid biosynthesis system enzyme activity and weakened acetolactate synthase gene ( ILV2 )Express

[0161] A yeast strain (M013Y strain) was constructed by the following method, in which the enzyme activity of the 2-aminobutyric acid biosynthesis system was enhanced, and the gene encoding acetolactate synthase ( ILV2 ) is weakened for the purpose of enhancing the ability to produce 2-aminobutyric acid.

[0162] Saccharomyces cerevisiae AG1ura3-strain (Japanese Patent Publication (Kokai) No. 2012-213376) was used as a parent strain. AG1ura3-strain is the γ-glutamylcysteine ​​synthetase gene of Saccharomyces cerevisiae Y006 strain (FERMBP-11299) ( GSH1 ) strains with enhanced expression. AG1ura3-strain deficiency URA3 gene, and show uracil auxotrophy.

[0192] in M007Y strain and M013Y strain ILV2 Gene mRNA expression and Abu-related compound analysis

[0193] (1) Culture and sampling

[0194] The M007Y strain and M013Y strain constructed in Example 1 were inoculated into SD medium (50 mL) contained in a Sakaguchi flask with a volume of 500 mL in an amount of one loop, and cultured at 30° C. for 24 hours with shaking at 120 rpm.

[0195] The absorbance of each culture solution obtained was measured, and the culture solution was inoculated into SD medium (70 mL) contained in a Sakaguchi bottle with a volume of 500 mL at an OD600 of 0.01, and cultured at 30° C. for about 18 hours with shaking at 120 rpm ( main culture). Absorbance was measured by using a DU640 spectrophotometer (BECKMAN COULTER). When OD600 became 1.5, the culture solution was sampled.

[0213] has further weakened acetolactate synthase gene ( ILV2 ) Construction of the M014Y strain expressed

[0214] As mentioned above, it is estimated that the M007Y strain contains two or more copies of ILV2 Gene. Therefore, the additional copy in the M013Y strain as the parent strain was destroyed by the following method ILV2 gene , to prepare a strain (M014Y) in which the acetolactate synthase activity was further reduced.

Abstract

Provided is a yeast extract and yeast having a high Abu, gamma-Glu-Abu, and / or gamma-Glu-Abu-Gly content. By means of modifying yeast in a manner so as to decrease the acetolactate synthase activity in the cell, a yeast is obtained having a high Abu, gamma-Glu-Abu, and / or gamma-Glu-Abu-Gly content. The yeast extract is prepared using yeast obtained in said manner as a starting material.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to yeast and yeast extracts having a high content of Abu, γ-Glu-Abu and / or γ-Glu-Abu-Gly. The yeast and yeast extract are useful in the food field such as seasoning and health food. Background technique [0002] Acetolactate synthase is known to catalyze the formation of acetolactate and CO from two molecules of pyruvate 2 and the formation of α-acetylhydroxybutyrate and CO from pyruvate and α-butyruvate (α-KB) 2 reaction enzymes. A known ILV2 and ILV6 is the gene encoding yeast acetolactate synthase, and ILV2 and ILV6 Encode the catalytic and regulatory subunits, respectively. [0003] It is known that when acetolactate synthase is deleted from bacteria, the accumulation of α-KB in cells increases (Non-Patent Document 1). [0004] It is also known that if the inhibitor of the enzyme encoding acetolactate synthase ILV2 Genes, especially those characteristic of brewer's yeast nonScILV2 The expression level of...
