ABSTRACT:
Genes (and portions thereof) which are stress-inducible, e.g., by cold-shock which encode useful proteins. The proteins contribute to confer thermo-tolerance and/or contribute to confer low temperature tolerance to organisms, like eucaryotes or procaryotes. Typical genes encoding such proteins and homologous genes encoding proteins with equivalent properties are discussed. Nucleotide sequences encoding such proteins, recombinant replicable expression vehicles which comprise DNA constructs which encode such proteins and competent transformed organisms like eucaryotes are discussed. The production of valuable fermentation products and of biologically active proteins under conditions outside the normal or optimum physiological growth conditions are described.
