Cloning and expression of phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase from Escherichia coli
In order to better study the structure and function of phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase, the phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase gene is cloned and expressed by PCR (polymerase chain reaction), double enzyme digestion and cell transformation. The results show

Metabolic characterisation of E. coli citrate synthase and phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase mutants in aerobic cultures [PDF]
E. coli is still one of the most commonly used hosts for protein production. However, when it is grown with excess glucose, acetate accumulation occurs.

Minimizing acetate formation in E. coli fermentations [PDF]
Escherichia coli remains the best established production organisms in industrial biotechnology. However, during aerobic fermentation runs at high growth rates, considerable amounts of acetate are accumulated as by-product.

Modulation of iron responsive gene expression and enzymatic activities in response to changes of the iron nutritional status in _Cucumis sativus_ L. [PDF]
Regulation exerted by the iron status of the plant on the iron deficiency responses was investigated in cucumber roots (_Cucumis sativus_ L.) both at the biochemical and molecular level. Absence of iron induced the expression of the CsFRO1, CsIRT1, CsHA1

Effect of salicylic acid pretreatment on cadmium toxicity in wheat
Cadmium (100, 400 and 1000 μM CdCl2) treatments resulted in the inhibition of root dry biomass, root elongation and increased Cd accumulation in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) roots.

Evidence of coexistence of C₃ and C₄ photosynthetic pathways in a green-tide-forming alga, Ulva prolifera. [PDF]
Ulva prolifera, a typical green-tide-forming alga, can accumulate a large biomass in a relatively short time period, suggesting that photosynthesis in this organism, particularly its carbon fixation pathway, must be very efficient.
