Development of a Metabolite Sensor for High-Throughput Detection of Aldehydes in Escherichia Coli

We have developed a fluorescence-based metabolite sensor enabling in vivo detection of various aldehydes of biotechnological interest in Escherichia coli. YqhC is a transcriptional regulator that is known to be involved in the upregulation of the yqhD-dgkA operon in the presence of aldehydes. We too...
