An isolated gene coding for phenylalanine dehydrogenase of a microorganism belonging to a genus selected from the group consisting of the genera Bacillus and Sporosarcina origin; plasmids containing the gene; microorganism transformed with the plasmid, a process for the production of phenylalanine dehydrogenase using the microorganism; and a process for the production of L-phenylalanine using the enzyme.

Isolated phenylalanine dehydrogenase gene and process for production of

An isolated gene coding for phenylalanine dehydrogenase of a microorganism belonging to a genus selected from the group consisting of the genera Bacillus and Sporosarcina origin; plasmids containing the gene; microorganism transformed with the plasmid, a process for the production of phenylalanine dehydrogenase using the microogranism; and a process for the production of L-phenylalanine using the enzyme.

New L-phenylalanine dehydrogenases produced by a microorganism belonging to the genus Sporosarcina or Bacillus, new microorganisms capable of l-phenylalanine dehydrogenase and belonging to the genus Sporosarcina or Bacillus, a process for production of L-phenylalanine dehydrogenase using the microorganisms, and processes for production of L-amino acids using the enzymes or the microorganisms.
