Method for the production of (para)-hydroxybenzoate in (pseudomonas mendocina)

摘要

A transformed mutant, P. mendocina, is provided containing a DNA fragment that inactivates all pobA genes and encodes the enzyme hydroxybenzoate hydroxylase. Mutants deficient in hydroxybenzoate hydroxylase are useful for the production of para-hydroxybenzoate (PHBA).
