Cloning and Overexpression of Strictosidine β-D-Glucosidase Gene Short Sequence from Catharanthus roseus in Escherichia coli [PDF]
Purpose: Strictosidine-β-D-glucosidase (SGD) is considered as a key enzyme in the production of bisindole alkaloids in Catharanthus roseus. The present study illustrated the production of a short sequence of this enzyme in Escherichia coli without codon ...

Biotransformation Of l‐Tryptophan To Produce Arcyriaflavin A With Pseudomonas putida KT2440
Arcyriaflavin A was produced in Pseudomonas putida KT2440 using genes from Lentzea aerocolonigenes. Cultivation conditions and supply of the precursor l‐tryptophan were optimized. Genetic engineering of outer membrane vesicle release and cultivation with polyurethane adsorbent resulted in product enrichment in the supernatant.
