Abstract excerpt
Altering metabolic flux at a key branch point in metabolism has commonly been accomplished through gene knockouts or by modulating gene expression. An alternative approach to direct metabolic flux preferentially toward a product is decreasing the activity of a key enzyme through protein engineering. In Escherichia coli, pyruvate can accumulate from glucose when carbon flux through the pyruvate dehydrogenase...
