New strategy for removing acetic acid as a by-product during L-tryptophan production

Acetic acid, an important by-product of L-tryptophan production by Escherichia coli, is detrimental to cell growth and tryptophan accumulation. To reduce acetic acid accumulation and further improve the production of L-tryptophan, an acetyl-coenzyme A (acetyl-CoA) synthase (ACS) with high synthetic...
