Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Provided are a composition for producing tagatose, comprising fructose-4-epimerase, and a method of producing tagatose using the same.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A method of producing tagatose in a single enzymatic step by directly converting fructose into tagatose, by contacting fructose with tagatose-biphosphate aldolase, a microorganism expressing the tagatose-biphosphate aldolase, or a culture of the microorganism comprising tagatose-biphosphate aldolase. 2. The method of producing tagatose of claim 1 , wherein the contacting is performed under conditions of pH 5.0 to pH 9.0 and 30° C. to 80° C. for 0.5 hours to 48 hours.
