In order to determine whether transcriptome data obtained by DNA microarray analysis could be used to identify the genes involved in target metabolite production, we tried to identify the genes involved inl-lactate production byl-lactate-producing recombinantSaccharomyces cerevisiaestrains. We obtained DNA microarray data for these strains. Plasmids carrying lactic acid bacteria, bovine, and humanl-lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) genes were introduced intoPDC1-disruptedS. cerevisiaestrains.l-Lactate productivity of the strains harboring the human and bovine LDH genes was higher than that of the strains harboring lactic acid bacteria LDH genes. DNA microarray analysis revealed that the expression of 388 genes was significantly altered in the strains with the human and bovine LDH genes. Of these, thel-lactate productivity of human LDH-harboring deletion strains of 289 genes was compared with that of the standard and 56 randomly selected deletion strains containing the same LDH gene to validate the effectiveness of DNA microarray analysis for identifying the genes responsible forl-lactate production in the recombinant strains. Only deletion strains of the genes selected on the basis of the DNA microarray data showed significantly alteredl-lactate production as compared to the standard and the randomly selected deletion strains. Our results indicated that the genes related tol-lactate production could be successfully identified by selecting the genes that exhibited significantly altered expression on DNA microarray analysis, and the effectiveness of DNA microarray analysis for identifying the genes responsible forl-lactate production was discussed.
