  1. Note that BAD-5 and N31 strains harbored plasmid pET-TrChHDT for expression of HDT. Glycerol consumption rate (∆S) in g/L h, final biomass (OD) in g dry cell weight (DCW)/L, the protein production (HDT) in U/mL, and the protein yield based on glycerol (Y) in U/g were calculated based on experimental data. Numbers in parentheses indicate the doubling time (T0.5) in h of strains
