Embodiment 1

[0100] Example 1 The gene encoding trehalose-6-phosphate phosphatase (non ScTPS2 ) clone

[0101] As a result of searching using the comparative database described in JP-A-2004-283169, the non-ScTPS2 gene (SEQ ID NO: 1) encoding trehalose-6-phosphate phosphatase of Saccharomyces cerevisiae was found. According to the obtained nucleotide sequence information, the primers non ScTPS2_for (SEQ ID NO: 3) / non ScTPS2_rv (SEQ ID NO: 4) used to amplify the full-length gene were respectively designed, and the strain Saccharomycespastorianus Weihenstepan34 / 70 strain (referred to as "W34 / 70 strain ") chromosomal DNA as template PCR, obtain the DNA fragment that comprises non-ScTPS2 full-length gene.

[0102] The non-ScTPS2 gene fragment obtained above was inserted into pCR2.1-TOPO vector (manufactured by Invitrogen) by TA cloning. The nucleotide sequence of the non-ScTPS2 gene was analyzed and determined by the Sanger method (F. Sanger, Science, 214, 1215, 1981).

Embodiment 2

[0103] Example 2 Expression analysis of non-ScTPS2 gene in beer trial brewing

[0104] Saccharomyces pastorianus W34 / 70 strain was used for beer trial brewing, and the mRNA extracted from the fermenting Saccharomyces pastorianus was detected by Saccharomyces DNA microarray.

[0105] Wort extract concentration 12.69%

[0106] Wort volume 70L

[0107] Dissolved oxygen concentration in wort 8.6ppm

[0108] Fermentation temperature 15°C

[0109] The amount of yeast added 12.8×10 6 cells / mL

[0110] The fermented liquid was sampled over time to observe the changes in the amount of yeast proliferation (Figure 1) and the apparent concentration of the extract (Figure 2). At the same time, the yeast cells were sampled to prepare mRNA, and the prepared mRNA was labeled with biotin to be hybridized with the brewer's yeast DNA microarray. Signal detection was performed using the GeneChip Operating System (GCOS; GeneChip Operating Software 1.0, manufactured by Affymetrix Corporation)...

Embodiment 3

[0111] Example 3 Construction of non-ScTPS2 high expression strain

[0112] The non-ScTPS2 / pCR2.1-TOPO obtained by the method described in Example 1 was digested with restriction enzymes SacI and NotI to prepare a DNA fragment containing the non-ScTPS2 gene. The fragment was connected to pYCGPYNot treated with restriction enzymes SacI and NotI to construct non ScTPS2 high expression vector non ScTPS2 / pYCGPYNot. pYCGPYNot is a YCp-type yeast expression vector, and the introduced gene is highly expressed through the promoter of pyruvate kinase gene PYK1. Yeast selectable markers include the aminoglycoside antibiotic (Geneticin) resistance gene G418 r , selectable markers for E. coli include the ampicillin resistance gene Amp r .

[0113] Using the high expression vector obtained by the above method, adopt the method described in JP 07-303475 to transform AJL4004 strain, adopt YPD plate medium (1% yeast extract, 2% yeast extract) containing aminoglycoside antibiotics (Genetici...
