Improving the cost effectiveness of enhanced green fluorescent protein production using recombinant Escherichia coli BL21 (DE3): Decreasing the expression inducer concentration.

abstract：:An inducible esterase has been isolated from a liquid culture of Aspergillus niger grown on sugar-beet pulp. The enzyme was active on methyl esters of cinnamic acids, caffeic > p-coumaric > ferulic, and is therefore termed a cinnamoyl esterase. The enzyme was not active on methyl sinapinate, a good substrate for ferul...
