Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The present invention provides a recombinant gram-negative bacterial cell comprising a mutant spr gene encoding a spr protein having a mutation at one or more amino acids selected from D133, H145, H157, N31, R62, I70, Q73, C94, S95, V98, Q99, R100, L108, Y115, V135, L136, G140, R144 and G147 and wherein the cell has reduced Tsp protein activity compared to a wild-type cell.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A recombinant gram-negative bacterial cell comprising: a mutant spr gene that encodes a mutant spr protein having a mutation that is an amino acid substitution at one or more amino acids within the spr protein selected from the group consisting of D133, H145, H157, N31, R62, I70, Q73, C94, S95, V98, Q99, R100, L108, Y115, V135, L136, G140, R144, and G147, wherein the wild type spr protein has the sequence of SEQ ID NO: 21, and a mutation in the Tsp g…
