A 1.8 kb HindIII DNA fragment containing the secY gene of alkalophilic Bacillus sp. C125 has been cloned into plasmid pUC119 using the B. subtilis secY gene as a probe. The complete nucleotide sequence of the cloned DNA indicated that it contained one complete ORF and parts of two other ORFs. The similarity of these ORFs to the sequences of the B. subtilis proteins indicated that they were the genes for ribosomal protein L15-SecY-adenylate kinase, in that order. The gene product of the alkalophilic Bacillus sp. C125 secY homologue was composed of 431 amino acids and its M(r) value has been calculated to be 47,100. The distribution of hydrophobic amino acids in the gene product suggested that the protein was a membrane integrated protein with ten transmembrane segments. The total amino acid sequence of alkalophilic Bacillus sp. C125 secY homologue showed 69.7% homology with that of B. subtilis secY. Regions of remarkably high homology (78% identity) were present in transmembrane regions, and cytoplasmic domains (73% identity) with less homologous regions present in extracellular domains (43% identity). 相似文献

Nucleotide sequence of the LYS2 gene of Saccharomyces cerevisiae: homology to Bacillus brevis tyrocidine synthetase 1 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
The Saccharomyces cerevisiae LYS2 gene, which encodes alpha-aminoadipate reductase, an essential enzyme in the yeast lysine biosynthetic pathway, has been sequenced. A large open reading frame (ORF) has been identified which can specify a 1392-amino acid protein with a deduced Mr of 155,344. A DNA database search using the translated LYS2 ORF as a probe has revealed significant aa sequence homology to the Bacillus brevis enzyme tyrocidine synthetase 1. 相似文献

The nucleotide (nt) sequence of a DNA segment containing the majority of a gene cloned from Bacillus thuringiensis DSIR517 encoding a 130 kDa insecticidal crystal protein has been determined. Sequence analysis reveals an open reading frame (ORF) of 3453 nt. The ATG initiation codon, which is preceded by a potential ribosome-binding site sequence, was confirmed by N-terminal amino acid sequencing. The ORF extends beyond the 3' terminus of the cloned fragment; however, the high degree of homology between the deduced amino acid sequence of this ORF and other Cry proteins suggests the clone lacks only five C-terminal amino acids. Making this assumption, the ORF of 3468 nt encodes a protein of 1156 amino acids with an estimated molecular mass of 129700 Da. Analysis of the deduced amino acid sequence reveals a number of features characteristic of Cry proteins. Alignment of the Cry 517 protein sequence with other Cry proteins suggests it is most closely related to the cryIA-E genes but sufficiently different to form a new cryI gene subclass. 相似文献

We obtained the DNA fragments encoding 2-hydroxy-6-oxo-7-methylocta-2,4-dienoic acid (HOMODA) hydrolase in the cumene (isopropylbenzene) degrader Pseudomonas fluorescens strain IP01 via PCR using two synthesized oligonucleotides corresponding to the conserved regions within known meta-cleavage compound hydrolases. Following colony hybridization using the amplified DNA as a probe, a 4.5-kb HindIII fragment was isolated from P. fluorescens IP01. After determining the nucleotide sequence of this fragment, three open reading frames (ORF11 [cumH], ORF12 [cumD], and ORF13) were identified. The deduced amino acid sequence of ORF12 showed homology with meta-cleavage compound hydrolases encoded by the tod, dmp, xyl, and bph operons. Although the product of ORF12 was found to exhibit HOMODA and 2-hydroxy-6-oxohepta-2,4-dienoic acid (HOHDA) hydrolase activities, it did not exhibit 2-hydroxy-6-oxo-6-phenylhexa-2,4-dienoic acid (HOPDA) hydrolase activity. The deduced amino acid sequence of ORF11 showed 40.4% homology with the sequence of todX in Pseudomonas putida F1 (Y. Wang, M. Ralings, D. T. Gibson, D. Labbé, H. Bergeron, R. Brousseau, and P. C. K. Lau, Mol. Gen. Genet. 246:570-579, 1995). The nucleotide sequence of ORF13 and its flanking region showed strong homology (91.0%) with IS52 from Pseudomonas savastanoi (Y. Yamada, P.-D. Lee, and T. Kosuge, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 83:8263-8267, 1982). By characterization of cumH and cumD, the entire cum gene cluster from the cumene-degrader P. fluorescens IP01 (cumA1A2A3A4BCEGFHD) has been identified. 相似文献

Summary The nucleotide sequence of an 852 base pair (bp) DNA fragment containing the entire gene coding for thermostable beta- 1,3-1,4-glucanase ofBacillus macerans has been determined. ThebglM gene comprises an open reading frame (ORF) of 711 by (237 codons) starting with ATG at position 93 and extending to the translational stop codon TAA at position 804. The deduced amino acid sequence of the mature protein shows 70% homology to published sequences of mesophilic beta- 1,3-1,4-glucanases fromB. subtilis andB. amyloliquefaciens. The sequence coding for mature beta-glucanase is preceded by a putative signal peptide of 25 amino acid residues, and a sequence resembling a ribosome-binding site (GGAGG) before the initiation codon. By contrast with the processed protein, the N-terminal amino acid sequence constituting the putative leader peptide bears no or only weak homology to signal peptides of mesophilicBacillus endo-beta-glucanases. TheB. macerans signal peptide appears to be functional in exporting the enzyme to the periplasm inE. coli. More than 50% of the whole glucanase activity was localized in the periplasmic space and in the supernatant. Whereas homology to endo-1,4-beta-glucanases is completely lacking, a weak amino acid homology between the sequence surrounding the active site of phage T4 lysozyme and a sequence spanning residues 126 through 161 ofB. macerans endo-beta-glucanase could be identified. 相似文献

We have isolated a 1.0-kilobase fragment of the Bacillus subtilis chromosome which, when present in high-copy-number plasmids, caused a sporulation-proficient strain to become phenotypically sporulation deficient. This is referred to as the sporulation inhibition (Sin) phenotype. This DNA fragment, in multicopy, also inhibited the production of extracellular protease activity, which normally appears at the beginning of stationary growth. The origin of the fragment was mapped between the dnaE and spo0A genes on the B. subtilis chromosome, and its complete DNA sequence has been determined. By analysis of various deletions and a spontaneous mutant the Sin function was localized to an open reading frame (ORF) predicted from the DNA sequence. Inactivation of this ORF in the chromosome did not affect the ability of cells to sporulate. However, the late-growth-associated production of proteases and alpha-amylase was elevated in these cells. The predicted amino acid sequence of the protein encoded by this ORF had a DNA-binding domain, typically present in several regulatory proteins. We propose that the sin ORF encodes a regulatory protein that is involved in the transition from vegetative growth to sporulation. 相似文献

Approximately 10,000 nucleotides were sequenced in the oriC region of the Bacillus subtilis chromosome. The first replicating DNA strands are hybridized with a SalI-EcoRI fragment (nucleotide #1206-2954) in one direction (left to right) and an EcoRI-PstI fragment (#2949-4233) in the other. Seven open reading frames (ORF) accompanied with Shine-Dalgarno (SD) sequences were identified. ORF638 and ORF821 were identified as gyrB and gyrA genes respectively based on genetic evidences and amino acid sequence data. Comparison of amino acid sequences revealed that ORF44, ORF446, ORF378 and ORF323 are homologous with rpmH, dnaA, dnaN and recF of Escherichia coli, respectively. Thus, the organization of the ORFs from ORF44 to ORF638 resembles the organization of genes in the rpmH-gyrB region of the E. coli chromosome. Two non-coding regions characteristic for oriC signals were found near the site of initiation of the first replicating DNA. They are composed of repeating sequences whose consensus sequence TTAT(C/A)CACA is identical to that of 4 repeating sequences in the oriC of E. coli. 相似文献

A plant cytosine methyltransferase cDNA was isolated using degenerate oligonucleotides, based on homology between prokaryote and mouse methyltransferases, and PCR to amplify a short fragment of a methyltransferase gene. A fragment of the predicted size was amplified from genomic DNA from Arabidopsis thaliana. Overlapping cDNA clones, some with homology to the PCR amplified fragment, were identified and sequenced. The assembled nucleic acid sequence is 4720 bp and encodes a protein of 1534 amino acids which has significant homology to prokaryote and mammalian cytosine methyltransferases. Like mammalian methylases, this enzyme has a C terminal methyltransferase domain linked to a second larger domain. The Arabidopsis methylase has eight of the ten conserved sequence motifs found in prokaryote cytosine-5 methyltransferases and shows 50% homology to the murine enzyme in the methyltransferase domain. The amino terminal domain is only 24% homologous to the murine enzyme and lacks the zinc binding region that has been found in methyltransferases from both mouse and man. In contrast to mouse where a single methyltransferase gene has been identified, a small multigene family with homology to the region amplified in PCR has been identified in Arabidopsis thaliana. 相似文献

The hsd locus (host specificity of DNA) was identified in the Neisseria gonorrhoeae genome. The DNA fragment encoding this locus produced an active restriction and modification (R/M) system when cloned into Escherichia coli. This R/M system was designated NgoAV. The cloned genomic fragment (7800 bp) has the potential to encode seven open reading frames (ORFs). Several of these ORFs had significant homology with other proteins found in the databases: ORF1, the hsdM, a methylase subunit (HsdM); ORF2, a homologue of dinD; ORF3, a homologue of hsdS; ORF4, a homologue of hsdS; and ORF5, an endonuclease subunit hsdR. The endonuclease and methylase subunits possessed strongest protein sequence homology to the EcoR124II R/M system, indicating that NgoAV belongs to the type IC R/M family. Deletion analysis showed that only ORF3 imparted the sequence specificity of the RM.NgoAV system, which recognizes an interrupted palindrome sequence (GCAN(8-)TGC). The genetic structure of ORF3 (208 amino acids) is almost identical to the structure of the 5' truncated hsdS genes of EcoDXXI or EcoR124II R/M systems obtained by in vitro manipulation. Genomic sequence analysis allowed us to identify hsd loci with a very high homology to RM.NgoAV in two strains of Neisseria meningitidis. However, significant differences in the organization and structure of the hsdS genes in both these systems suggests that, if functional, they would possess recognition sites that differ from the gonococcus and from themselves. 相似文献

The ggh-A gene, encoding a 1,4-β-d-glucan glucohydrolase/β-glucosidase, of Microbispora bispora (Mb) was subcloned and expressed from a 4.0-kb XhoI DNA fragment. The nucleotide sequence of this fragment was determined. Analysis of the sequence revealed one open reading frame (ORF) which encodes a 986-amino-acid (aa) protein with a calculated molecular weight of 107 510. The ggh-A ORF has features typical of an actinomycete gene including high GC content (70.5%) and corresponding biased codon usage. Comparison of the aa sequence of the Mb 1,4-β-d-glucan glucohydrolase (Mbggh-A) with other glycosidases reveals high overall homology to several β-glucosidases and a 1,4-β-d-glucan glucohydrolase belonging to the glycosyl hydrolase family 3. The aa sequence alignments of Mbggh-A and β-glucosidases show that the active site region potentially involves two Asp residues. The aa sequence homology studies revealed a potential two-domain structure for Mbggh-A and other β-glucosidases. Furthermore, Mbggh-A has localized homology to a cellulose-binding domain present in some xylanases. This report is significant, as, to date, 1,4-β-d-glucan glucohydrolases have rarely been reported, though they are assumed to have a critical role in cellulolysis. 相似文献

A genetic element which is conserved in the genomes of numerous Lactococcus lactis bacteriophage isolates has been identified and its nucleotide sequence determined. Approximately 95-99% of all L. lactis bacteriophages collected over a period of six years from two geographically distinct sources carry this conserved DNA fragment. Genetic variation in other regions of the genomes of these bacteriophages is exhibited by changes in the overall restriction patterns. The complete nt sequence for a 1.6-kb region from nine independent L. lactis bacteriophage isolates was determined and only five changes in the nt sequence were observed within a span of 1536 bp. This region has a single large 1356-bp open reading frame (ORF) coding for a 51-kDa protein. Three out of the five changes occur in a 187-bp region, 5' to this large ORF. The two additional changes are found within the 1356-bp ORF, which results in two amino acid substitutions that do not, however, change the net charge of the protein. The encoded protein is extremely charged and shares some homology with yeast translation initiation factor. In addition, there is a potential zinc-binding domain within this protein, similar to those observed in genes from bacteriophages T4 and T7. 相似文献

The gene encoding the beta-amylase of Bacillus cereus BQ10-S1 (SpoII) was cloned into Escherichia coli JM 109. A sequenced DNA fragment of 2,001 bp contains the beta-amylase gene. The N-terminal sequences (AVNGKG MNPDYKAYLMAPLKKI), the C-terminal sequences (SHTSSW), and the amino acid sequences of the five regions in the beta-amylase molecules were determined. The mature beta-amylase contains 514 amino acid residues with a molecular mass of 57,885 Da. The amino acid sequence homology with those of known beta-amylases was 52.7% for Bacillus polymyxa, 52.0% for Bacillus circulans, 43.4% for Clostridium thermosulfurogenes, 31.8% for Arabidopsis thaliana, 31.5% for barley, 29.9% for sweet potato, and 28.9% for soybean. Ten well-conserved regions were found between the N terminus and the area around residue 430, but the C-terminal region of 90 residues has no similarity with those of the plant beta-amylases. The homology search revealed that this C-terminal region has homology with C-terminal regions of the beta-amylase from C. thermosulfurogenes, some bacterial alpha-amylases, cyclodextrin glucanotransferase, and glucoamylase. Some of these sequences are known as the raw-starch-binding domain. These results suggest that B. cereus beta-amylase has an extra domain which has raw-starch-binding ability and that the domain has considerable sequence homology with those of other amylases or related enzymes from a wide variety of microorganisms. 相似文献
