Abstract
A process for the production of L-alanine dehydrogenase which comprises culturing an L-alanine dehydrogenase producing microorganism belonging to the genus Sporolactobacillus in a nutrient medium and isolating thus-produced L-alanine dehydrogenase from the cultured mass. The microorganism is for example Sporolactobacillus sp. 78-3 FERM BP-2517 and mutants and variants thereof having the ability to produce L-alanine dehydrogenase in recoverable amounts. This strain is a thermophile which cannot grow at 40.degree. C. but can grow at 45.degree. C. and 52.degree. C. The strain can assimilate glucose and produce lactic acid and acetic acid.
