Cloned (Comment) Organism
recombinant enzyme expression in Rhodobacter sphaeroides strain DSM 5864, which synthesizes 5-aminolevulinic acid through the C-4 pathway and also has the genes coding for the enzymes of the C-5 pathway, except for glutamyl-tRNA reductase. Expression of the glutamyl-tRNA reductase gene from Rhodospirillum rubrum enabled the C-5 pathway in Rhodobacter sphaeroides to function upon assembling all the required genes Rhodospirillum rubrum
