Identification of the Yarrowia lipolytica cysteine sulfinic acid decarboxylase gene using a newly developed method with optimized Escherichia coli combinations of mutant alleles.

Abstract excerpt

To develop a low-cost, environmentally friendly taurine fermentation method for sustainable marine fish culture using feed derived from photosynthetically produced agricultural products, it is crucial to study cysteine sulfinic acid decarboxylase (CSAD), a key enzyme in the taurine biosynthetic pathway in applicable microorganisms. In this study, a method was devised to screen for CSAD genes using Escherichia...
