gene metC, phylogenetic analysis, the recombinant His6-tagged enzyme TmCBL is overexpressed in a metC-deficient DELTAmetC Escherichia coli mutant strain and can complement it. The enzyme rescues the alanine racemase knockout, Escherichia coli strain MB2795 (DELTAalrDELTAdadX), as quickly as expressing Escherichia coli ALR itself. Recombinant production of His6-tagged enzyme in a soluble form Thermotoga maritima
gene metC, phylogenetic analysis, the recombinant His6-tagged enzyme wMelCBL is overexpressed in a metC-deficient DELTAmetC Escherichia coli mutant strain and can complement it. The enzyme rescues the alanine racemase knockout, Escherichia coli strain MB2795 (DELTAalrDELTAdadX), as quickly as expressing Escherichia coli ALR itself. Recombinant production of His6-tagged enzyme in a soluble form Wolbachia pipientis
gene metC, phylogenetic analysis, the recombinant MBP-tagged enzyme PuCBL is overexpressed in a metC-deficient DELTAmetC Escherichia coli mutant strain and can complement it partially. The enzyme rescues the alanine racemase knockout, Escherichia coli strain MB2795 (DELTAalrDELTAdadX), as quickly as expressing Escherichia coli ALR itself.
