Studies on mikamycin B lactonase. V. Metabolic control in mikamycin B fermentation.
In mikamycin B fermentation, some procedures were examined to remove the participation of mikamycin B lactonase, which reduces mikamycin B titers. Addition of enzyme inhibitors and control of pH resulted in the elimination of the enzyme activity, and in the stimulation of antibiotic production.
