The vehicle coin dispenser is a device that is adapted for use with one or more coins. The vehicle coin dispenser is adapted for use with a vehicle. The vehicle coin dispenser is mounted on the dashboard of a vehicle. The vehicle coin dispenser receives coins, sorts the coins received by value, counts the coins received, receives a dispense amount request, and dispenses the collected and received coins such that the value of the dispensed coins equals the requested dispense amount. The vehicle coin dispenser comprises a housing and a control system.

Vehicle coin dispenser

The invention provides microbial strains possessing improved properties for production of aspartate-derived amino acids and chemicals. Methods of making such strains are provided. These methods include altering expression of the aceBAK operon, the glcB gene, or both. Alteration of expression may be accomplished through increased transcription, relief from native transcriptional control, and/or other means. Replacement of native promoters for these genes is also contemplated; for instance, their native promoters may be replaced by the tac promoter (Ptac).

Altered glyoxylate shunt for improved production of aspartate-derived amino acids and chemicals

The invention relates to novel bacterial strains and constructs as well as methods for production of L-amino acids, including but not limited to L-threonine. Such novel bacterial strains may be characterized by, for instance,strains in which an aspartate semialdehyde dehydrogenase (asd) gene is operably associated with at least one non-native promoter, non-native ribosome binding site, or both.

The present invention relates, in general, to vectors comprisingreplicons. More specifically, the present invention relates to vectors comprising areplicon found on the endogenous plasmid contained in Deposit No. NRRL B-30035.

The present invention relates to novel bacterial strains useful for the production of 2-keto-L-gulonic acid. The present invention further relates to the use of these strains for the production of 2-keto-L-gulonic acid by fermentative conversion of L-sorbose. The present invention further relates to the use of these novel bacterial strains for the production of pyrroloquinoline quinone and a nontoxic lipopolysaccharide. Also described is the strains of the present invention transformed by a vector.
