Effect of lignocellulose-derived inhibitors on growth of and ethanol production by growth-arrested Corynebacterium glutamicum R.

Fermentative Production of Lysine by Corynebacterium glutamicum from Different Carbon Sources

Production of lysine by Corynebacterium glutamicum (PTCC 1532) from different agricultural by-products (molasses and pulpy waste date) was compared to glucose as raw materials. For this purpose, ammonium sulphate was selected as a constant nitrogen source. The effect of different nitrogen sources was also investigated with glucose as a constant carbon source. The production of L-lysine was exam...

P-101: Effects of Ethanol and Strontium on Growth and Development of Two-Cell Arrested Mouse Embryos

Background: Arresting in a certain step of development like two-cell stage could be one of the reasons of infertility. The aim of this study is evaluating the effects of ethanol and strontium on growth and development of two-cell arrested mouse embryos. Materials and Methods: The females were coupled with male following superovulation. Positive vaginal plug mice were killed 48 hours after hCG i...

The Effects of Ethanol and Strontium on Growth and Development of Two-Cell Arrested Mouse Embryos

Characterization of the phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase gene from Corynebacterium glutamicum and significance of the enzyme for growth and amino acid production.

Corynebacterium glutamicum possesses phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP) carboxykinase, oxaloacetate decarboxylase and malic enzyme, all three in principle being able to catalyze the first step in gluconeogenesis. To investigate the role of PEP carboxykinase for growth and amino acid production, the respective pck gene was isolated, characterized and used for construction and analysis of mutants and over...

Development of A Novel Gene Expression System for Secretory Production of Heterologous Proteins via the General Secretory (Sec) Pathway in Corynebacterium glutamicum

Background: Corynebacterium glutamicum (C. glutamicum) is a potential host for the secretory production of the heterologous proteins. However, to this date few secretion-type gene expression systems in C. glutamicum have been developed, which limit applications of C. glutamicum in a secretory production of the heterologous proteins.Objectives: In this stu...
