Metabolic engineering of Escherichia coli for production of enantiomerically pure (R)-(-)-hydroxycarboxylic acids
Article Abstract:
Research has been conducted on polyhydroxyalkanoate. The authors describe the development of metabolically engineered Escherichia coli strains which harbor heterologous polyhydroxyalkanoate synthesis and degradation pathway, and discuss the strategy used in producing enantiomerically pure polyhydroxyalkanoates by these strains.

Escherichia coli heat shock protein DnaK: production and consequences in terms of monitoring cooking
Article Abstract:
Research has been conducted on heat shock protein DnaK from Escherichia coli. The authors have quantified this protein, subjected to different heating treatments, via the use of DnaK proteins and anti-DnaK monoclonal antibodies, and have presented the results.

A stable bioluminescent construct of Escherichia coli O157:H7 for hazard assessments of long-term survival in the environment
Article Abstract:
Research has been conducted on nontoxigenic Escherichia coli O157:H7 chromosomally lux-marked strain. Results demonstrate that survival characteristics of this strain are indistinguishable from the wild-type strain.
