Abstract excerpt
Ergothioneine (ERG), as a natural potent antioxidant, possesses excellent physicochemical properties and diverse physiological activities, thereby exhibiting broad application prospects. However, engineering of existing genetically modified strains is prone to encountering bottlenecks in yield improvement. To identify key regulatory genes involved in ERG biosynthesis and enhance its heterologous production...
