摘要:
The present invention features improved methods for the enhanced production of pantoate and pantothenate utilizing microorganisms having modified pantothenate biosynthetic enzyme activities and having modified methylenetetrahydrofolate (MTF) biosynthetic enzyme activities. In particular, the invention features methods for enhancing production of desired products by increasing levels of a key intermediate, ketopantoate, by increasing enzymes or substrates that contribute directly or indirectly to its synthesis. Recombinant microorganisms and conditions for culturing same are also featured. Also featured are compositions produced by such microorganisms.
摘要:
The present invention provides isolated polynucleotide molecules comprising a nucleotide sequence encoding the DHFR-TS protein of Neospora which polynucleotide molecules are useful in preparing modified live vaccines against neosporosis, and as diagnostic reagents. The present invention further provides cloning and expression vectors, transformed host cells, substantially purified DHFR-TS proteins and peptide fragments, genetic constructs useful for targeted gene deletion, and vaccine compositions.
