Corynebacterium heterologous protein expression: CJ CheilJedangRecent Research Landscape

Engineering Corynebacterium strains via the insertion of specific heterologous proteins, such as those from Shewanella atlantica, to modulate metabolic flux. This control lever enables the optimization of biosynthetic pathways for high-yield L-amino acid secretion.

What technical problems is CJ CheilJedang addressing in Corynebacterium heterologous protein expression?

Insufficient metabolic flux

(24)evidences

The cluster focuses on the inability of wild-type or standard strains to produce high yields of specific amino acids like L-arginine. Enhancing metabolic pathways through heterologous protein expression addresses the bottleneck of low natural synthesis rates.
