title: High-Producers of Polygalacturonase Selected From Mutants Resistant to Rifampin in Alkalophilic Bacillus sp. NTT33.
abstract: Synthesis of polygalacturonases in alkalophilic Bacillus sp. which is sensitive to rifampin, was clearly repressed by glucose. Mutants resistant to glucose catabolic repression were selected. From spontaneous mutants, NTT33-cs52 and NTT33-cs301 produced polygalacturonase activities 57.2 to 82.4% higher than the wild type.
