Project description:Muconic acid production from engineered Corynebacterium glutamicum. Gene expression analysis in the pathway redesigned Corynebacterium glutamicum
Project description:To identify genes which are differentially expressed in Corynebacterium glutamicum in the cg2460 deletion strain, we performed DNA microarray analyses of C. glutamicum Δcg2460 compared to the WT.
Project description:To identify genes which are differentially expressed in Corynebacterium glutamicum in the cg2699 deletion strain, we performed DNA microarray analyses of C. glutamicum Δcg2699 compared to the WT.
Project description:Lignocellulosic biomass is an abundant and renewable resource for biofuels and bio-based chemicals. Vanillin is one of the major phenolic inhibitors in biomass production using lignocellulose. To assess the response of Corynebacterium glutamicum to vanillin stress, a global transcriptional response analysis was performed by using microarray.
Project description:The physiological role of ubiquitous rhomboid proteases, membrane-integral proteins that cleave their substrates inside the lipid bilayer, is ill-defined in prokaryotes. The two rhomboid genes cg0049 and cg2767 of Corynebacterium glutamicum were deleted and consequences investigated in respect to growth phenotype, stress resistance, transcriptome, proteome and lipidome composition.
Project description:Recently, we established Corynebacterium glutamicum as a suitable production host for various bacteriocins including garvicin Q (GarQ). Here, we establish secretion of GarQ by C. glutamicum via the Sec translocon. At neutral pH, the cationic peptide is efficiently adsorbed to the negatively charged envelope of producer bacteria limiting availability of the bacteriocin in culture supernatants. Using a reporter strain and proteomic analyses, we identified HtrA, a protease associated with secretion stress, as another potential factor limiting GarQ production.
Project description:Metabolically engineered Corynebacterium glutamicum strains were constructed for the enhanced production of L-arginine, and their gene expression profiles were investigated
