Production of engineered killer peptide in Nicotiana benthamiana by using a Potato virus X expression system

Article Abstract:

Killer peptide was expressed in plants by using Potato virus X (PVX)-derived vector as a fusion to the viral coat protein, yielding chimeric virus particles (CVPs) displaying the heterologous peptide. The results indicated that the PVX-based display system is a high-yield, rapid and efficient method to produce and evaluate antimicrobial peptides in plants, representing a milestone for the large-scale production of high-scale production of high-added value peptides through molecular farming.

Role of cytochrome bd oxidase from Corynebacterium glutamicum in growth and lysine production

Article Abstract:

A study was conducted to analyze the role of cytochrome bd, one of the terminal oxidase possessed by Corynebacterium glutamicum for growth and lysine production. The L-lysine-producing Corynebacterium glutamicum strain MH20-22B, deletion of the cydAB genes was observed have only minor effects on growth rate and biomass formation, but lysine production was increased by approximately 12%.

Involvement of quinolinate phosphoribosyl transferase in promotion of potato growth by a Burkholderia strain

Article Abstract:

A study was conducted on the mechanism by which the Burkholderia sp. strain stimulates the root growth of potato explants under gnotobiotic conditions. It was observed that the role played by quinolinate phosphoribosyl transferase was significant for the promotion of plant growth by PsJN.
