Efficient production of 2-deoxy-scyllo-inosose from d-glucose by metabolically engineered recombinant Escherichia coli

2-Deoxy-scyllo-inosose (DOI) is a six-membered carbocycle formed from d-glucose-6-phosphate catalyzed by 2-deoxy-scyllo-inosose synthase (DOIS), a key enzyme in the biosynthesis of 2-deoxystreptamine-containing aminocyclitol antibiotics. DOI is valuable as a starting material for the benzene-free sy...
