| Popis: |
In last decade there has been considerable interest in developing recombinant lactic acid bacteria with novel properties for applications in the health care industry and for their more traditional use in food fermentation and preservation. It is envisaged that genetically modified lactic acid bacteria will eventually be used to increase the production of certain flavour compounds or enzymes involved in various food processes or as cell factories for the production of antimicrobials, high value proteins and primary or secondary metabolites. A more recent development has been the growing interest in the use of non-pathogenic lactic acid bacteria as vaccine delivery vehicles for mucosal immunisation. A key component in the development of many of these applications is the requirement for efficient expression systems for the production of heterologous proteins in different species of lactic acid bacteria. This chapter summarises the progress of work on the development of general cloning vectors and inducible and constitutive expression systems for the lactococci. |
