The possibility of associating starch degradation with bacterial --glucuronidase expression was examined. We proved that starving, in starch medium, amylase-negative Escherichia coli (M94) which has constitutive --glucuronidase greatly reduces (p < 0.01) its background activity, but the addition of
The production of foreign proteins at high yields represents a severe metabolic stress for Escherichia coli cells. In many cases, induction of protein synthesis results in rapid exhaustion of the cellular energy and metabolic precursors and thus in cell death. Therefore, sustained production of fore
## Abstract Simvastatin is the active pharmaceutical ingredient of the blockbuster cholesterol lowering drug Zocor. We have previously developed an __Escherichia coli__ based whole‐cell biocatalytic platform towards the synthesis of simvastatin sodium salt (SS) starting from the precursor monacolin
