Abstract
A purified vitamin B-phosphate phosphatase (VB6PP), having the following physico-chemical properties: a) Molecular weight: 29,000±5,000 (consisting of a monomer having a molecular weight of 29,000±5,000); b) Co-factor: Mn, Mg, Co, Sn, or Ni; c) Substrate specificity: active on pyridoxol 5'-phosphate, pyridoxal 5′-phosphate and pyridoxamine 5′-phosphate; d) Optimum temperature: 30–400° C. at pH 7.5; and e) Optimum pH: 7.0–8.0 is disclosed. Also disclosed are a process for producing VB6PP from a microorganism belonging to the genuscapable of producing VB6PP, a process for producing vitamin Bfrom vitamin B-phosphate (VB6P) utilizing VB6PP, and a cell-free extract of a microorganism belonging to the genuscapable of producing VB6PP.
