Abstract:Methionine is an essential amino acid in mammals and a critical metabolite in all organisms. As such, various applications, including food, feed, and pharmaceuticals, necessitate the addition of L-methionine. Although amino acids and other metabolites are commonly produced through bacterial fermentation, high-yield biosynthesis of L-methionine remains a significant challenge due to the strict cellular regulation of the biosynthesis pathway. As a result, methionine is produced primarily synthetically, resulting… Show more
