Knockout of two alanine racemase genes of Vibrio anguillarum and its potential as an attenuated vaccine in olive flounder (Paralichthys olivaceus)
2016-05-01
Abstract excerpt
Vibriosis caused by Vibrio anguillarum is one of the most common bacterial diseases in cultured fish worldwide. Alanine racemases (Alrs) catalyze conversion of l-alanine to d-alanine. As d-alanine is an essential component of the peptidoglycan layer of bacteria, the alanine racemase gene (alr) knockout bacteria cannot grow without d-alanine supplementation. In the genome of V. anguillarum, two alanine racemase gen...
