Abstract excerpt
In order to test a possible approach to enhance fermentative inosine production by Bacillus subtilis, seven gene-targeted mutations were introduced in the laboratory standard strain168 in a stepwise fashion. The mutations were employed in order to prevent inosine 5'-monophosphate (IMP) from being consumed for AMP and GMP synthesis, to minimize inosine degradation, and to expand the intracellular IMP pool. First,...
