Abstract

Microorganisms isolated from soil (150 strains), fungi (39 strains), yeasts (9 strains) and Streptomyces species (39 strains) were assayed for L-phenylalanine ammonia-lyase(PAL) activity. 17 strains of fungi and 46 strains of soil isolates were proved to produce PAL, Aspergillus panamensis, Penicillium varioti and 11 soil isolates showed comparatively large PAL activity. When PAL activity was assayed with cell-free extracts of these 13 strains and 7 strains of Rhodotorula and Rhodosporidium geni, Rhodosporidium toruloides (IFO 0559) showed the highest PAL activity with 0.333 units per g of the wet cell weight.
