Abstract excerpt
Corynebacterium glutamicum mutants lacking ATP phosphoribosyl transferase (PRT) were selected by complementation with the Escherichia coli PRT gene. The recombinant plasmid pCH13 carrying a wild type PRT gene from C. glutamicum T106 was obtained in one of the mutants, LH13. Transformants, LH13/pCH13 and T106/pCH13, had three times higher PRT specific activity than T106. The plasmid pCH99 specifying the PRT, which...
