Published in 2017 at "Biotechnology Letters"

DOI: 10.1007/s10529-017-2383-5

Abstract: ObjectivesTo improve its phosphate accumulating abilities for phosphate recycling from wastewater, a magnetotactic bacterium, Magnetospirillum gryphiswaldense, was genetically modified to over-express polyphosphate kinase.ResultsPolyphosphate kinase was over-expressed in the bacterium. The recombinant strain accumulated ninefold more… read more here.
