The Escherichia coli K-12 ackA gene, which encodes an acetate kinase, was cloned. The acetate kinase activities of ackA+ plasmid-containing strains were amplified 160- to 180-fold. The complete nucleotide sequence of the ackA gene was determined. It was deduced that the ackA gene coded for a protein of 400 amino acids with an Mr of 43,297. The ackA gene was found to be located about 15 kilobases upstream of the purF-folC-hisT region of the chromosome. 相似文献

Carnitine dehydratase from Escherichia coli O44 K74 is an inducible enzyme detectable in cells grown anaerobically in the presence of L-(-)-carnitine or crotonobetaine. The purified enzyme catalyzes the dehydration of L-(-)-carnitine to crotonobetaine (H. Jung, K. Jung, and H.-P. Kleber, Biochim. Biophys. Acta 1003:270-276, 1989). The caiB gene, encoding carnitine dehydratase, was isolated by oligonucleotide screening from a genomic library of E. coli O44 K74. The caiB gene is 1,215 bp long, and it encodes a protein of 405 amino acids with a predicted M(r) of 45,074. The identity of the gene product was first assessed by its comigration in sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gels with the purified enzyme after overexpression in the pT7 system and by its enzymatic activity. Moreover, the N-terminal amino acid sequence of the purified protein was found to be identical to that predicted from the gene sequence. Northern (RNA) analysis showed that caiB is likely to be cotranscribed with at least one other gene. This other gene could be the gene encoding a 47-kDa protein, which was overexpressed upstream of caiB. 相似文献

The gene for Escherichia coli leucyl-tRNA synthetase leuS has been cloned by complementation of a leuS temperature sensitive mutant KL231 with an E.coli gene bank DNA. The resulting clones overexpress leucyl-tRNA synthetase (LeuRS) by a factor greater than 50. The DNA sequence of the complete coding regions was determined. The derived N-terminal protein sequence of LeuRS was confirmed by independent protein sequencing of the first 8 aminoacids. Sequence comparison of the LeuRS sequence with all aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase sequences available reveal a significant homology with the valyl-, isoleucyl- and methionyl-enzyme indicating that the genes of these enzymes could have derived from a common ancestor. Sequence comparison with the gene product of the yeast nuclear NAM2-1 suppressor allele curing mitochondrial RNA maturation deficiency reveals about 30% homology. 相似文献

Three genes from the Bacillus subtilis major che-fla operon have been cloned and sequenced. Two of the genes encode proteins that are homologous to the Escherichia coli and Salmonella typhimurium flagellar biosynthetic proteins FliP and FliQ. The third gene, designated fliZ, encodes a 219-amino-acid protein with a predicted molecular mass of 24,872 Da. FliZ is not significantly homologous to any known proteins. Null mutants in fliP and fliZ do not have flagella; however, motility can be restored to the fliZ null mutant by expression of fliZ from a plasmid. FliZ has a conventional N-terminal signal sequence that does not direct secretion of the protein but appears to target the protein to the membrane. Two possible models of insertion of FliZ into the membrane are described. 相似文献

Summary The Escherichia coli HU-1 was cloned by use of mixed synthetic oligonucleotides (17-mer) predicted from a portion of its amino acid sequence. The amino acid sequence of the HU-1 protein deduced from the nucleotide sequence is in good agreement with the published sequence. The nucleotide sequence has a possible promoter and a typical ribosomal binding site upstream from the translational initiation codon (GUG) of the HU-1 gene. 相似文献

Rhodococcus rhodochrous J1 produces two kinds of cobalt-containing nitrile hydratases (NHases); one is a high molecular mass-NHase (H-NHase) and the other is a low molecular mass-NHase (L-NHase). Both NHases are composed of two subunits of different sizes (alpha and beta subunits). The H- and L-NHase genes were cloned into Escherichia coli by a DNA-probing method using the NHase gene of Rhodococcus sp. N-774, a ferric ion-containing NHase producing strain, as the hybridization probe and their nucleotide sequences were determined. In each of the H- and L-NHase genes, the open reading frame for the beta subunit was located just upstream of that for the alpha subunit, which probably belongs to the same operon. The amino acid sequences of each subunit of the H- and L-NHases from R. rhodochrous J1 showed generally significant similarities to those from Rhodococcus sp. N-774, but the arrangement of the coding sequences for two subunits is reverse of the order found in the NHase gene of Rhodococcus sp. N-774. Each of the NHase genes was expressed in E. coli cells under the control of lac promoter, only when they were cultured in the medium supplemented with CoCl2. 相似文献

Potato tuber type H phosphorylase isozyme. Molecular cloning, nucleotide sequence, and expression of a full-length cDNA in Escherichia coli 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Higher plant tissues contain two alpha-glucan phosphorylase isozymes (EC 2.4.1.1), types L and H, localized in the plastid and the cytoplasm, respectively. We already isolated and sequenced a cDNA clone encoding the type L isozyme. Presently, a cDNA clone encoding the type H counterpart was isolated from a cDNA library of immature potato tuber by plaque hybridization, using two oligonucleotide probes synthesized based on the partial amino acid sequences of the type H isozyme. The message encodes a polypeptide of 838 amino acid residues. Sequence comparison of the two potato tuber phosphorylase isozymes revealed two major distinctions; the type L isozyme contains a 78-residue insertion in the middle of the polypeptide chain as well as a 50-residue amino-terminal extension. Except for these extra portions, the two isozyme sequences show an identity of 63%. The entire structural gene for the type H isozyme was inserted 3'-downstream of the strong T7 RNA polymerase promoter in the expression plasmid pET-3b. Escherichia coli BL21 (DE3) cells carrying this plasmid produced active phosphorylase upon induction with isopropyl-beta-D-thiogalactoside at 22 degrees C. The expression is entirely dependent on the temperature; the bacteria did not produce a detectable amount of the active enzyme at 37 degrees C. Addition of pyridoxine to the culture medium was effective for the enzyme production. 相似文献

A mutant glgC gene contained in a 10.9-kb PstI fragment was cloned from the Escherichia coli B strain SG5 via colony hybridization by using a wild-type glgC probe. The altered allosteric properties of the expressed ADPglucose synthetase were found to result from the conversion of proline to serine at amino acid residue 295. 相似文献

We have determined the nucleotide sequences of two structural genes of the Escherichia coli gab cluster, which encodes the enzymes of the 4-aminobutyrate degradation pathway: gabD, coding for succinic semialdehyde dehydrogenase (SSDH, EC 1.2.1.16) and gabP, coding for the 4-aminobutyrate (GABA) transport carrier (GABA permease). We have previously reported the nucleotide sequence of the third structural gene of the cluster, gabT, coding for glutamate: succinic semialdehyde transaminase (EC 2.6.1.19). All three gab genes are transribed unidirectionally and their orientation within the cluster is 5-gabD-gabT-gabP-3. gabT and gabP are separated by an intergenic region of 234-bp, which contains three repetetive extragenic palindromic (REP) sequences. The gabD gene consists of 1,449 nucleotides specifying a protein of 482 amino acids with a molecular mass of 51.7 kDa. The protein shows significant homologies to the NAD+-dependent aldehyde dehydrogenase (EC 1.2.1.3) from Aspergillus nidulans and several mammals, and to the tumor associated NADP+-dependent aldehyde dehydrogenase (EC 1.2.1.4) from rat. The permease gene gabP comprises 1,401 nucleotides coding a highly hydrophobic protein of 466 amino acids with a molecular mass of 51.1 kDa. The GABA permease shows features typical for an integral membrane protein and is highly homologous to the aromatic acid carrier from E. coli, the proline, arginine and histidine permeases from Saccharomyces cerevisiae and the proline transport protein from A. nidulans. Uptake of GABA was increased ca. 5-fold in transformants of E. coli containing gabP plasmids. Strong overexpression of the gabP gene under control of the isopropyl-2-d-thiogalactoside (IPTG) inducible tac promoter, however, resulted in a severe growth inhibition of the transformed strains. The GABA carrier was characterized using moderately overexpressing transformants. The K
m of GABA uptake was found to be 11.8 M and the Vmax 0.33 nmol/min · mg cells. Uptake of GABA was stimulated by ammonium sulfate and abolished by 2,4-dinitrophenol. Aspartate competed with GABA for uptake. 相似文献

Complementary DNA clones encoding rat kidney histamine N-methyltransferase have been isolated using synthetic oligonucleotide probes based on partial amino acid sequences of tryptic peptides of the purified enzyme. The 1.3-kilobase cDNA consisted of a 5'-noncoding region of 8 nucleotides, a coding region of 885 nucleotides, and a 3'-noncoding region of 369 nucleotides. The encoded protein of 295 amino acid residues had a calculated molecular weight of 33,940.2. After introduction of a prokaryotic expression vector containing the isolated cDNA, Escherichia coli cells expressed histamine N-methyltransferase activity. The enzyme expressed in these cells was isolated and purified as a single band on sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, whose mobility was identical to the natural enzyme purified from rat kidney. The recombinant enzyme had Vmax and Km values for both histamine and S-adenosylmethionine identical to those of the natural enzyme. All of the inhibitors of the natural enzyme tested showed similar Ki values on both recombinant and natural enzyme. 相似文献

The complete nucleotide sequence of the Escherichia coli recB gene which encodes a subunit of the ATP-dependent DNase, Exonuclease V, has been determined. The proposed coding region for the RecB protein is 3543 nucleotides long and would encode a polypeptide of 1180 amino acids with a calculated molecular weight of 133,973. The start of the recB coding sequence overlaps the 3' end of the upstream ptr gene, and the recB termination codon overlaps the initiation codon of the downstream recD gene, suggesting that these genes may form an operon. No sequences which reasonably fit the consensus for an E. coli promoter could be identified upstream of the proposed recB translational start. The predicted RecB amino acid sequence contains regions of homology with ATPases, DNA binding proteins and DNA repair enzymes. 相似文献
