Isolated nucleic acid molecules, designated SES nucleic acid molecules, which encode novel SES proteins from Corynebacterium glutamicum are described. The invention also provides antisense nucleic acid molecules, recombinant expression vectors containing SES nucleic acid molecules, and host cells into which the expression vectors have been introduced. The invention still further provides isolated SES proteins, mutated SES proteins, fusion proteins, antigenic peptides and methods for the improvement of production of a desired compound from C. glutamicum based on genetic engineering of SES genes in this organism. |
