Abstract excerpt
Systematic screening of single-gene knockout collection of Escherichia coli BW25113 (the Keio collection) was performed to select mutants that could enhance the deethylation of 7-ethoxycoumarin catalyzed by CYP154A1. After 96-well plate high-throughput screening followed by test tube assays, four mutants (Delta cpxA, Delta gcvR, Delta glnL, and an unknown-gene-deleted one (Delta uk)) were able to increase the...
