Effect of phosphoglucoisomerase (hasE) and hyaluronan synthase (hasA) co-expression on hyaluronic acid production in Escherichia coli rosetta (DE3)

Hyaluronic acid (HA) is one of nature’s most versatile and fascinating materials due to its unique behavior and characteristic. This substance has a wide usage in clinical sector and plays a very important role in physiological and cell biological functions. Previously, the main source of this polys...

The inserts from the TOP 10 clones were sub-cloned into two different expression vectors, pRSF-DUET and pCDF. The hasA was cloned into pRSF-DUET, while hasE gene was cloned into both pRSF-DUET and pCDF producing pRSF-DUETA, pRSF-DUET-AE and pCDF-E. All clones were transformed into E. coli Rosetta (DE3).
