Co-expression of ppsA and pckA increased activity of DAHP synthetase significantly.CONCLUSION: Co-expression of ppsA and pckA. genes in B. flavum could remarkably increase the expression of DAHP synthetase; Co-expression of ppsA, pcsA, aroG, pheA and tyrB of E. coil in B. flavum was a feasible approach to construct a strain for phenylalanine production.展开更多
