Abstract excerpt
A mutated ilvA gene of Escherichia coli encoding a threonine deaminase that is resistant to feedback inhibition by L-isoleucine was obtained. It was functional in Brevibacterium flavum, and a wild strain of B. flavum into which it was introduced became able to convert exogeneous L-homoserine and...
