Disclosed are methods, systems, components, and compositions for cell-free synthesis of glycosylated proteins. The glycosylated proteins may be utilized in vaccines, including anti-bacterial vaccines. The glycosylated proteins may include a bacterial polysaccharide conjugated to a carrier, which may be utilized to generate an immune response in an immunized host against the polysaccharide conjugated to the carrier. The glycosylated proteins may be synthesized in cell-free glycoprotein synthesis (CFGpS) systems using prokaryote cell lysates that are enriched in components for glycoprotein synthesis such as oligosaccharyltransferases (OSTs) and lipid-linked oligosaccharides (LLOs) including OSTs and LLOs associated with synthesis of bacterial O antigens.

A composition having Lactobacillus Plantarum strain GMNL-662 for promoting bone regrowth is provided. The Lactobacillus Plantarum strain GMNL-662 has an ability to promote the expression of osteogenic genes, inhibit the expression of osteoclast related genes, and promote the expression of osteogenesis-related cytokine TGF-β, so that the bone loss is improved.

The present invention relates to a method of preparing a live attenuated vaccine by irradiation and a live attenuated vaccine composition prepared by the same, and more particularly, a method of preparing a live attenuated vaccine by irradiation including irradiating a pathogenic microorganism with a dose of 0.5 to 2 kGy of radiation per single radiation six to fifteen times; and a live attenuated vaccine composition including a pathogenic microorganism attenuated to not be revertant to a wild type by generation of at least one mutation of nucleotide insertion and nucleotide deletion by irradiation.

A transport protein coding gene, and a method for efficient production of L-tryptophan by a strain containing the gene. Specifically, by heterologous expression of ywkB gene from Bacillus subtilis on the genome of Escherichia coli, L-tryptophan production efficiency of the strain can be improved. Performing shake flask fermentation with the strain can accumulate 15.2 g/L of L-tryptophan within 24 h, which is 35% higher than a control strain.

Disclosed is a Lactobacillus salivarius LS97 and an application thereof. The strain was deposited in the China General Microbiological Culture Collection Center on Dec. 10, 2018 with a deposit number of CGMCC NO.16922 and a classification name of Lactobacillus salivarius, the deposit address being China General Microbiological Culture Collection Center, Institute of Microbiology, Chinese Academy of Sciences, No. 1 West Beichen Road, Chaoyang District, Beijing 100101, China. The Lactobacillus salivarius LS97 can effectively inhibit the growth of Streptococcus sobrinus.

Disclosed are gene engineering bacteria for producing L-arginine and a construction method and an application of the gene engineering bacteria. According to the method, genes encoding a carbamoyl phosphate synthetase and a gene encoding an L-arginine biosynthesis pathway enzyme are integrated into Escherichia coli; the present invention has analyzed and reconstructed the arginine synthetic pathway and the metabolic flow related to arginine in the entire amino acid metabolic network in E. coli and finally obtained a genetically engineered bacterial strain which has a clear genetic background, carries no plasmids, undergoes no mutagenesis and is capable of stably and efficiently producing L-arginine.

A novel branched-chain amino acid aminotransferase variant and a method for producing leucine using the same.

The present invention provides a method for producing a fermentation product by culturing recombinant exosporium-producing Bacillus cells that express a fusion protein of interest on the exosporium in a medium containing sources of carbon and nitrogen in a total concentration of at least 20 g/L, resulting in a fermentation broth containing a high titer of the recombinant Bacillus spores.

Provided are a polypeptide having excellent 4-aminobenzoic acid hydroxylation activity and a method for using the same. The present invention provides a polypeptide having 4-aminobenzoic acid hydroxylation activity, consisting of the amino acid sequence represented by SEQ ID NO: 2 or an amino acid sequence having at least 47% identity thereto, and having an amino acid residue at position 47 of the amino acid sequence represented by SEQ ID NO: 2 or a position corresponding thereto being leucine.

The disclosure relates generally to bacterial strains of the genus Anaerostipes, e.g., Anaerostipes rhamnosivorans bacterial strains, and compositions, e.g., pharmaceutical compositions, comprising such bacterial strains. The disclosure further relates to method of using such bacterial strains and compositions for preventing or treating a disorder, e.g., an inflammatory disorder, a gastrointestinal disorder, a metabolic disorder, and/or dysbiosis when administered to a subject in need thereof.
