Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: Most protein secretion systems are found in gram-negative bacteria, but the mechanism of endoglucanase (BcsZ) secretion in Escherichia coli (E. coli) remains unclear. METHODS: In this study, we used JBZ-DH5α (which overexpresses BcsZ on the E. coli DH5α genome) as the initial strain. A mutant library was created by randomly inserting the TN5 transposon into the genome, and mutants with reduced...
