Protein Variants

Protein Variants Comment Organism
additional information construction of the putrescine-producing strain PUT1 by deletion of argF, the gene for ornithine transcarbamoylase, and argR, encoding the L-arginine repressor, combined with heterologous expression of the Escherichia coli gene for L-ornithine decarboxylase SpeC. The strain requires supplementation of L-arginine and shows growth-decoupled putrescine production. By fine-tuning argF expression through modifications of the promoter, the translational start codon and/or the ribosome binding site, high productivity and titer can be obtained, optimization of putrescine production by mutant strains, overview Corynebacterium glutamicum
