Supported by Prof. Dr. Gerald Lackner a research article was published on the development of an overall process workflow to obtain pure F-O from an engineered Escherichia coli host strain. We were able to shift the cofactor synthesis from riboflavin to F-O via the implementation of oxygen-limited process conditions during heterologous fbiC expression and reached a final titer of 5.05 mg L-1 F-O in our fermentation broth, which for the first time allows the purification of relevant amounts for subsequent experiments.

Thank you to everybody involved in this great achievement!
