Abstract excerpt
The effect of a phosphoribosylpyrophosphate (PRPP) synthetase gene (prs) that was desensitized to feedback inhibition by ADP on inosine accumulation was investigated using an inosine-producing mutant of Escherichia coli. At the same time, various types of plasmid having a PRPP amidotransferase gene (purF) that was desensitized to feedback inhibition by AMP and GMP were also investigated to improve inosine...
