[Effect of coordination germanium compounds on biosynthesis and activity of proteases in Bacillus sp. and Yarrowia lipolytica].

The paper deals with the capacity of the coordination germanium compounds with citric acid in a complex with some aminoacids (aspartic acid, methionine, cysteine, threonine, phenylalanine, L-glutamic acid) as bioligands to affect synthesis and activity of the proteolytic enzyme complex of Bacillus sp. 27 and Yarrowia lipolytica 2061. Thus, biscitrategermanium acid H2[Ge(H4Citr)2] and its complex with aspartic acid (HAsp)2 [Ge(H4Citr)2] can be used with success for inducing biosynthesis ofcaseinolytic (182.

[Influence of different sources of carbon and nitrogen on the biosynthesis of proteolytic complexes by Bacillus circulans 693, Bacillus sp. 27 and Yarrowia lipolytica 2061 strains].

The influence of different factors on the biosynthesis of extracellular proteolytic complexes by strains-producers Bacillus circulans 693, Bacillus sp. 27 and Yarrowia lipolytica 2061 at submerged cultivation has been investigated. It has been shown that ammonium hydrocarbonate and gelatin with glucose were optimum carbon and nitrogen sources for synthesis of proteolytic activity of B.

[Screening of microorganisms--producers of proteases].

Screening of producers of proteases among 367 strains of microorganisms has been carried out. A capacity to synthesize the enzymes was revealed in 25% of the studied strains of Bacillus genus (from 0.0054 to 0.
