Abstract excerpt
The Escherichia coli fabD gene encoding malonyl coenzyme A-acyl carrier protein transacylase (MCT) was cloned by complementation of a thermosensitive E. coli fabD mutant (fabD89). Expression of the fabD gene in an appropriate E. coli expression vector resulted in an accumulation of the MCT protein of up to 10% of total soluble protein, which was accompanied by an approximately 1,000-fold increase in the MCT...
