Enhancement of Microbial Biodesulfurization via Genetic Engineering and Adaptive Evolution.

In previous work from our laboratories a synthetic gene encoding a peptide ("Sulpeptide 1" or "S1") with a high proportion of methionine and cysteine residues had been designed to act as a sulfur sink and was inserted into the dsz (desulfurization) operon of Rhodococcus erythropo...
