4%のヘキサデカンを含むYeast培地(0.5%酵母エキス)500mLにて培養したプロトテカ ゾフィ JCM9400(Prototheca zopfii JCM9400)より実施例1と同様に脂溶成分をクロロホルムにて抽出し、薄層クロマトグラフィーに供した。シリカゲルでコートされたMERCK社製1.05721(200×200×0.25mm)を用い、ヘキサン/ジエチルエーテル/酢酸(80:20:1)にて展開した。展開後0.01%プリムリン溶液を噴霧し、紫外線照射にて発色するRf値0.5以下のスポットを掻き取り、ヘキサン/水(4:1)を加えて混合し、脂溶成分であるヘキサン層を回収し減圧エバポレーター(EYERA社)によりヘキサンを除いた。
取得した脂質成分をアセトニトリル/水(80:20)に溶解しHPLCに供した。HPLCはSIMADZU社LC−10Aシステムを用い、カラム:Shim−pack CLC−ODS(M)、溶媒:アセトニトリル/水(80:20)、流量:1mL/min、検出器:RIにて行なった。本条件下でR.T.30.0分付近、33.1分付近の化合物を1H−NMR解析に供したところ、それぞれ5−ヘキサデカノール、5−ヘキサデカノンと同定された。
Example 7 Structural analysis of ketone bodies and alcohol bodies From Prototheca Zofi JCM9400 (Prototheca zopfii JCM9400) cultured in Yeast medium (0.5% yeast extract) containing 4% hexadecane in the same manner as in Example 1, fat-soluble components Was extracted with chloroform and subjected to thin layer chromatography. Development was performed with hexane / diethyl ether / acetic acid (80: 20: 1) using 1.05721 (200 × 200 × 0.25 mm) manufactured by MERCK and coated with silica gel. After development, spray with 0.01% primulin solution, scrape off spots with an Rf value of 0.5 or less that develop color by UV irradiation, add hexane / water (4: 1), mix, and mix with hexane, a fat-soluble component. The layer was collected and hexane was removed with a vacuum evaporator (EYERA).
The obtained lipid component was dissolved in acetonitrile / water (80:20) and subjected to HPLC. HPLC was carried out using a SIMADZU LC-10A system with a column: Shim-pack CLC-ODS (M), a solvent: acetonitrile / water (80:20), a flow rate: 1 mL / min, and a detector: RI. Under these conditions, R.I. T.A. When the compounds at around 30.0 minutes and around 33.1 minutes were subjected to 1 H-NMR analysis, they were identified as 5-hexadecanol and 5-hexadecanone, respectively.

なお、市販の試薬5−ヘキサデカノール(SIGMA―ALDRICH)及び5−ヘキサデカノン(Alfa Aesar)と培養サンプルのGC解析結果の比較により、各々の生産物の特定を行なった。また、GC−MS解析にても各々のフラグメントパターンが一致することを確認した。GC−MSの解析条件は、カラム:HR−SS−10(信和化工)、分析装置:GCMS−QP5050(Shimadzu)、カラム温度:160〜220℃、2℃/分昇温、注入口検出器温度:250℃、検出器:FID、キャリアガス:He、メイクアップガス:N2で行なった。 Each product was identified by comparing the GC analysis results of commercially available reagents 5-hexadecanol (SIGMA-ALDRICH) and 5-hexadecanone (Alfa Aesar) with the culture sample. Further, it was confirmed by GC-MS analysis that the respective fragment patterns were identical. GC-MS analysis conditions are as follows: Column: HR-SS-10 (Shinwa Chemical), Analytical device: GCMS-QP5050 (Shimadzu), Column temperature: 160-220 ° C., 2 ° C./min temperature rise, inlet detector temperature : 250 ° C., detector: FID, carrier gas: He, makeup gas: N 2

実施例8
ヘキサデカンに代えて、1−トリデセン、1−ヘキサデセン、フェニルノナンを用いて、実施例3と同様に培養し、その培養液をGC分析したところ、1−トリデセンからは1−トリデセン−9−オンの生成を、1−ヘキサデセンからは1−ヘキサデセン−12−オンの生成を、フェニルノナンからは5−フェニルノナノンの生成を確認した。
Example 8
In place of hexadecane, 1-tridecene, 1-hexadecene, and phenylnonane were used in the same manner as in Example 3, and the culture was analyzed by GC. From 1-tridecene, 1-tridecene-9-one was obtained. Production of 1-hexadecene-12-one was confirmed from 1-hexadecene, and formation of 5-phenylnonanone was confirmed from phenylnonane.
