Production of β-alanine by whole-cell catalysis. a SDS-PAGE analysis of MpADC and MpADC-Δ39 expressions in E. coli cells cultured from a 15 L fermentor. M: protein marker; lanes 1, 3: the supernatant of fermented E. coli cells expressing MpADC and MpADC-Δ39; lanes 2, 4: the precipitation of fermented E. coli cells expressing MpADC and MpADC-Δ39, respectively. b The 1-L reaction system consists of 50 g/L cells (corresponding OD600 = 18.4), 55 g/L L-ASP and 0.5 mM PLP. The pH was maintained at about 6.3–6.5 by adding L-ASP
