physiological function
a Propionibacterium freudenreichii strain expressing PepC grows significantly faster, consumes more glycerol, and produces propionate to a higher final titer at a faster rate. The strain also produces significantly more propionate from glucose under elevated CO2 partial pressure

cloned in Escherichia coli DH5alpha. Knock-out as well as over-expression mutants are constructed and characterized. Knocking out phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase decreases the maximum cell density by 14% and increases the acetate excretion by 7%. Over-expression of phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase increases the maximum cell dry weight by 91%. No acetate excretion is detected at these increased cell densities

biotechnology
-
elevated acetate concentrations have an inhibitory effect on growth rate and recombinant protein yield, and thus elimination of acetate formation is an important aim towards industrial production of recombinant proteins
