Mediators

Of great interest is the production of endogenous mediators. The overexpression of glyceroldehydrogenase in ''E. coli'' is a promising approach. Because many derivates of glyceroldehydrogenase are small, water-soluble redoxmolecules, they have the properties of a mediator. Futhermore, it will be tested, if there is a possibility of expressing the mediator phenazin. Phenazin is an endogenous mediator of ''Pseudomonas'' species.
