Abstract

Escherichia coli has been the pioneering host for recombinant protein production, since the original recombinant DNA procedures were developed using its genetic material and infecting bacteriophages. As a consequence, and because of the accumulated know-how on E. coli genetics and physiology and the increasing number of tools for genetic engineering adapted to this bacterium, E. coli is the preferred host when attempting the production of a new protein.

Highlights

  • Escherichia coli has been the pioneering host for recombinant protein production, since the original recombinant DNA procedures were developed using its genetic material and infecting bacteriophages

  • Bacterial hosts others than E. coli are attracting attention as cell factories due to their metabolic diversity and biosynthetic potential derived from adaptation to extremely diverse environments

  • The implementation of lactic acid bacteria as a routine cell factory expands their applications from conventional food microbiology [18-21] to protein production and protein drug display and delivery [22-29], taking advantage of the generically recognized as safe (GRAS) features of this platform
