Bacillus subtilis var. chungkookjang producing high molecular weight poly-gamma-glutamic acid
Salt-resistant Bacillus subtilis var. chungkookjang, accession no. KCTC 0697BP, separated from “chungkookjang” a traditional Korean fermented soy bean paste and its poly-gamma-glutamic acid (or poly-gamma-glutamate, g-PGA), an edible, soluble, anionic, and biodegradable high molecular-weight polymer. Bacillus subtilis var. chungkookjang produces g-PGA with a higher molecular weight than other extracellular g-PGAs derived from general Bacillus sp. strains and can be utilized for the development of high value-added products, such as cosmetics, absorption agents, and biodegradable plastic materials.
