ABSTRACT:
A process for producing a polypeptide of interest from fermentation of bacterial host cells comprising nucleic acid encoding the polypeptide is provided. In this method, the host cells employed have an inactivated electron transport chain. Further provided is a method for determining if a particular bacterial cell culture has a propensity for dissolved oxygen instability when fermented on a large scale.
