Application

Application Comment Organism
medicine L-alanine catabolism can be conferred on Mycobacterium bovis BCG by introduction of the gene encoding Ald of Mycobacterium tuberculosis, restoration of Ald activity does not change the in vivo growth of BCG in macrophages or mice, and protection against aerosol Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection is not altered by addition of the gene encoding Ald to the BCG vaccine Mycobacterium tuberculosis
