Cloning, nucleotide sequence, and expression in Escherichia coli of the gene for poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) depolymerase from Alcaligenes faecalis.
The extracellular poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) depolymerase gene from Alcaligenes faecalis T1 was cloned into Escherichia coli DH1 by using the plasmid pUC8. An A. faecalis T1 genomic library was prepared in E. coli from a partial Sau3AI digest and screened with antibody against the depolymerase. Of the 29 antibody-positive clones, 1 (pDP14), containing about 4 kilobase pairs of A. faecalis T1 DNA, ...
متن کاملThe Alcaligenes eutrophus H16 hoxX gene participates in hydrogenase regulation.
Nucleotide sequence analysis revealed a 1,791-bp open reading frame in the hox gene cluster of the gram-negative chemolithotroph Alcaligenes eutrophus H16. In order to investigate the biological role of this open reading frame, we generated an in-frame deletion allele via a gene replacement strategy. The resulting mutant grew significantly more slowly than the wild type under lithoautotrophic c...
متن کاملMolecular analysis of the Alcaligenes eutrophus poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) biosynthetic operon: identification of the N terminus of poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) synthase and identification of the promoter.
Molecular methods have been applied to analyze the expression of the Alcaligenes eutrophus poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) (PHB) synthase gene (phbC). The translational initiation codon was identified by analysis of the amino acid sequence of a PHB synthase-beta-galactosidase fusion protein. This protein was purified to almost gel electrophoretic homogeneity by chromatography on DEAE-Sephacel and on am...
متن کاملCloning and expression of the levanase gene in Alcaligenes eutrophus H16 enables the strain to hydrolyze sucrose
Genetic engineering methods were used to enhance the substrate spectrum of Alcaligenes eutrophus H16, a poly-fl-hydroxybutyric acid (PHB) producer. Using parts of the vector pMMB33 and a 2.5 kb DNA fragment of the Bacillus subtilis chromosome a plasmid was constructed bearing the gene for levanase, an enzyme able to hydrolyze various saccharides. After transfer of the levanase gene by triparent...
متن کاملcloning and expression of poly 3-hydroxybutyrate operon into escherichia coli
background poly 3-hydroxybutyrate (phb), a class of poly hydroxyalkanoates (phas), is a group of bacterial storage polymers, produced by various microorganisms in response to nutrient limitation. phas are biodegradable polymers which could be a good substitute for current petrochemical plastics. phb has been synthesized during three enzymatic steps including three genes. objectives our aim was ...
