In order to improve the biotechnological potentials of Escherichia coli cells to produce glutathione, S-D-lactoylglutathione and other gamma-glutamyl compounds, the genes for enzymes [gamma-L-glutamyl-L-cysteine synthetase (GSH A) in E. coli B,
glutathione synthetase
(GSH B) in E. coli B, glyoxalase I (
GLO
I) in Pseudomonas putida] were cloned and amplified in E. coli. E. coli B cells transformed with both GSH A and GSH B genes exhibited a high activity in the synthesis of glutathione and other gamma-glutamyl compounds in bioreactor systems containing immobilized cells. E. coli C600 cells transformed with
GLO
I gene of P. putida showed a high
GLO
I activity and were used for the preparation of S-D-lactoylglutathione and other glutathione thiol esters.
