Abstract excerpt
Corynebacterium glutamicum is known to excrete large amounts of L-glutamic acid upon treatment by penicillin. However, the mechanism of L-glutamate overproduction by penicillin treatment is still unknown. A 5.3-kb HindIII fragment was isolated by directly introducing the C. glutamicum (Brevibacterium lactofermentum) ATCC 13869 gene library into the temperature-sensitive Escherichia coli murE mutant and selecting...
