Abstract excerpt
l-Proline takes a significant role in the pharmaceutical and chemical industries as well as graziery. Typical biosynthesis of l-proline is from l-glutamate, involving three enzyme reactions as well as a spontaneous cyclization. Alternatively, l-proline can be also synthesized in l-ornithine and/or l-arginine producing strains by an ornithine aminotransferase (OCD). In this study, a strategy of directed evolution...
