RiboFACSeq: A new method for investigating metabolic and transport pathways in bacterial cells by combining a riboswitch-based sensor, fluorescence-activated cell sorting and next-generation sequencing.

The elucidation of the cellular processes involved in vitamin and cofactor biosynthesis is a challenging task. The conventional approaches to these investigations rely on the discovery and purification of the products (i.e proteins and metabolites) of a particular transport or biosynthetic pathway,...
