A bioconversion process of producing GM1 (monosialotetrahexosylganglioside) on an industrial scale was developed with a novel sialidase-producing strain Brevibacterium casei. The sialidase hydrolyzed polysialogangliosides to produce GM1 but did not act on GM1. When Brevibacterium casei was cultured in a synthetic medium containing crude pig brain gangliosides (10% w/v) at 30°C for 24 h in a 50 l fermenter, most of the polysialogangliosides were converted to GM1. The content of GM1 was increased from 9% in crude gangliosides to 45% with 70% (w/w) yield.
