Transposon mutations in the flagella biosynthetic pathway of the solvent-tolerant Pseudomonas putida S12 result in a decreased expression of solvent efflux genes.

abstract：:A recombinant lipase, CWB-LipB, localized on the Bacillus subtilis cell surface and retaining lipase activity was unstable and not accumulated in a high yield. To improve the accumulation, we examined cell wall binding protease (wprA)- and/or sigma D (sigD)-deficient mutants, and also a NprE and AprA protease-deficien...
