Abstract excerpt
A problem in strain engineering is that mutations that benefit the expression of a phenotype in one environment may impose a cost to biological fitness in a new environment. The overall objective of this study was to improve understanding of this phenomenon within the context of a classic anti-metabolite selection strategy. We have engineered Escherichia coli using three mutagenesis techniques (chemical...
