Use of inducible feedback-resistant N-acetylglutamate synthetase (argA) genes for enhanced arginine biosynthesis by genetically engineered Escherichia coli K-12 strains.
The goal of this work was to construct Escherichia coli strains capable of enhanced arginine production. The arginine biosynthetic capacity of previously engineered E. coli strains with a derepressed arginine regulon was limited by the availability of endogenous ornithine (M. Tuchman, B. S. Rajagopal, M. T. McCann, and M. H. Malamy, Appl. Environ. Microbiol. 63:33-38, 1997). Ornithine biosynthe...
متن کاملHfr Strains of Escherichia coli K-12
Since the first reports by Cavalli-Sforza (9) and Hayes (24) of strains of Escherichia coli K-12 which are conjugational donors of chromosomal markers at high frequency (Hfr strains), many other Hfr strains have been isolated and our understanding of the mechanisms involved in Hfr formation has increased considerably. All Hfr strains arise from the integration of a conjugative plasmid into the ...
متن کاملMethanol-based cadaverine production by genetically engineered Bacillus methanolicus strains
Methanol is regarded as an attractive substrate for biotechnological production of value-added bulk products, such as amino acids and polyamines. In the present study, the methylotrophic and thermophilic bacterium Bacillus methanolicus was engineered into a microbial cell factory for the production of the platform chemical 1,5-diaminopentane (cadaverine) from methanol. This was achieved by the ...
متن کاملHydrogen production by recombinant Escherichia coli strains
The production of hydrogen via microbial biotechnology is an active field of research. Given its ease of manipulation, the best-studied bacterium Escherichia coli has become a workhorse for enhanced hydrogen production through metabolic engineering, heterologous gene expression, adaptive evolution, and protein engineering. Herein, the utility of E. coli strains to produce hydrogen, via native h...
متن کاملHomofermentative production of optically pure L-lactic acid from xylose by genetically engineered Escherichia coli B
BACKGROUND Polylactic acid (PLA), a biodegradable polymer, has the potential to replace (at least partially) traditional petroleum-based plastics, minimizing "white pollution". However, cost-effective production of optically pure L-lactic acid is needed to achieve the full potential of PLA. Currently, starch-based glucose is used for L-lactic acid fermentation by lactic acid bacteria. Due to it...
