The operon promoter is widely used as a tool to control recombinant protein production in bacteria. Here, we give a brief review of how it functions, how it is regulated, and how, based on this knowledge, a suite of promoter derivatives has been developed to give a controlled expression that is suitable for diverse biotechnology applications.
操纵子启动子被广泛用作控制细菌中重组蛋白生产的工具。在这里,我们简要回顾了它的功能、如何调控,以及如何基于这些知识开发了一系列启动子衍生物,以实现适合各种生物技术应用的可控表达。
