Preparation of a Cell-Free, Isobutene-Forming System from Rhodotorula minuta

RESUMO

The cell-free isobutene-forming system of Rhodotorula minuta IFO 1102 was prepared. This system consisted of isovaleric acid, NADPH, and a cell extract. The maximal activity obtained by using the described cell-free system was 17 nl/mg of protein per h. It appears that this cell-free isobutene-forming system operates in living cells of R. minuta.
