TL;DR: The development of a commercializable process for the production of the amino acid L-phenylalanine, which has uses in the manufacture of aspartame and in parenteral nutrition, is desired.
Patent
Controlled gene excision
TL;DR: In this paper, an Escherichia coli chromosomal DNA segment is engineered for controllable excision and loss from the E. coli cell population, and a gene determining a function is lost in the absence of that chromosomal segment.
Journal ArticleDOI
A gene cassette for adapting Escherichia coli strains as hosts for att-Int-mediated rearrangement and pL expression vectors.
TL;DR: A cassette of genes from bacteriophage Lambda renders strains of Escherichia coli (and in principle other Mu-sensitive bacteria) capable of supporting lambda-based expression vectors, such as rearrangement vectors and pL vectors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Controllable alteration of cell genotype in bacterial cultures using an excision vector.
TL;DR: A derivative of phage lambda is constructed, called an excision vector, which retains only those functions necessary for conditional maintenance of lysogeny and integration/excision, and illustrates a new class of conditional mutations in which the genotype changes in response to external stimuli.
Patent
Integration of a gene into a chromosome and controllable excision therefrom
TL;DR: In this paper, a vector that is incapable of replicating autonomously in the host and that includes the gene lor a site for the insertion of the gene) and an attachment site corresponding to an attachment sites on the host chromosome is integrated into a bacterial chromosome.
