Growth Condition
Strains Escherichia coli K-12 JM101
Genotype F- traD36 lacIq delta (lacZ) M15 proA+ B+ supE thi delta (lac-proAB)
Culture medium Batch cultures were grown in 20 ml tubes with 5 ml of LB medium on a gyratory shaker at 200 rpm, at 37 Celsius. continuous cultivations were performed in a modified M9 medium containing 3 g of glucose, 48 mM Na2HPO4, 22 mM KH2PO4, 10 mM NaCl,and 30 mM (NH4)2SO4. The following components were sterilized separately and then added (1 ml per liter of final medium): 1 M MgSO4, 0.1 mM CaCl2, 1 mg/mlvitamin B1(filter sterilized). Additionally, 1 ml of polypropylene glycol 2000 was added per liter as an antifoaming agent. Continuous cultivation was performed at 37 Celsius in aerobic chemostats with a working volume of 1.3 liter in a 1.5-liter fermentor (B.Braun Biotech), equipped with pH, dissolved oxygen, and temperature probes. The pH value was maintained at 7.00 by addition of 1 M NaOH,
