Changes in biophysical characteristics of YghA from E. coli due to variation in pH

This study examines how pH changes affect the biophysical properties of YghA from E. coli, revealing structural instability at acidic pH and altered interactions with NADH.

Rapid expression of pyruvate decarboxylase from Zymomonas mobilis in E. coli BL21 LysY/Iq

This study demonstrates that E. coli BL21 LysY/Iq can rapidly express and purify pyruvate decarboxylase from Zymomonas mobilis in 2 hours with yields comparable to traditional 16-hour methods at lower temperatures.

Engineering Clostridium thermocellum for production of 2,3-butanediol from cellulose

This paper engineers Clostridium thermocellum to produce 2,3-butanediol from cellulose, achieving a titer of 19.7 mM with a metabolic yield of 24%.

Parameterization of cell-free systems with time-series data using KETCHUP

The paper extends the KETCHUP tool to parameterize kinetic models using time-course data from cell-free systems, demonstrating accurate simulation of multi-enzyme systems.
