Abstract excerpt
The gene encoding D-galactose dehydrogenase (gld; E.C. 1.1.1.48) from Pseudomonas fluorescens is poorly expressed when cloned into Escherichia coli. Mutagenesis of the wild-type construct leads to a strong expression of gld in the heterologous host. To investigate the mutational events directing the increase in expression we constructed a gld-lacZ translational fusion which facilitated the isolation of mutants by...
