摘要:
Using site-directed mutagenesis to mutate the Xanthomonas campestris pectate lyase gene, variants of Xanthomonas campestris pectate lyase with improved thermostability and/or enzymatic activity have been expressed in Escherichia coli, and then isolated and purified. The mutant Xanthomonas campestris pectate lyases are more effective than the wild-type enzyme, also expressed in E. coli, in removing pectic compounds from natural hemp fiber.

The invention relates to a new “gene-switch” (cumate-inducible switch) for mammalian cells. This switch is as useful in the development of expression systems and cell-based assays for functional genomics as in the generation of viral vectors for gene therapy.
摘要:
4-vinylguaiacol is produced using recombinant E. coli containing a decarboxylase gene from Bacillus pumilis in an aqueous fermentation broth and in an immobilized whole cell system. The 4-vinylguaiacol is extracted and recovered from an organic hydrocarbon solvent, preferably n-octane, whereby the product can readily be separated.
