CONT

A good example of the [DNA recombinant] technique comes from work carried out by ICI where a gene for an energy conserving nitrogen pathway taken from E. coli was transferred into their SCP(single-cell protein) organism Methylophilus methylotrophus strain AS1 where it substituted for the similar but energy consuming pathway possessed by the strain.

CONT

Les travaux réalisés par ICI donnent un bon exemple de cette technique [de recombinaison de l'ADN] : un gène correspondant à une voie métabolique de l'azote économe en énergie a été prélevé dans E. coli et transféré dans l'organisme producteur de protéines d'organismes unicellulaires (POU) qu'utilise cette entreprise (souche AS1 de Methylophilus methylotrophus), où il a remplacé la voie métabolique analogue mais consommatrice d'énergie dont était dotée la souche.
