Abstract

See full text

The object of this invention is a procedure for obtaining a genetically altered merodiploid strain of Penicillium chrysogenum in which the activity of a regulating gene that controls penicillin biosynthesis has been altered, so that this strain is an overproducer of penicillin. This invention represents the first case in which the biosynthesis of a metabolite of industrial interest has been increased by the manipulation of a regulating gene, and therefore is a considerable novelty compared with the previously used technologies.
