Metabolism and Lysine Biosynthesis Control in Brevibacterium Flavum: Impact of Stringent Response in Bacterial Cells

  • Chapter
Applied Microbiology

Part of the book series: Focus on Biotechnology ((FOBI,volume 2))

Abstract

Parameters affecting lysine biosynthesis by Brevibacterium flavum RC 115 cells under stringent response conditions (test guanosine 5′-diphosphate 3′-diphosphate accumulation in cells) caused by threonine limitation were investigated. Experimental results confirmed that an increase in lysine biosynthesis by this bacterium under stringent response conditions might be a result of an increase in the intracellular concentration of NADPH as well as lysine export activity.
