Cell surface engineering of Bacillus subtilis improves production yields of heterologously expressed α-amylases

Abstract Background Bacillus subtilis is widely used as a cell factory for numerous heterologous proteins of commercial value and medical interest. To explore the possibility of further enhancing the secretion potential of this model bacterium, a library of engineered strains with modified cell surf...
