Molecular cloning, nucleotide sequence, and characterization of the Bacillus subtilis gene encoding the DNA-binding protein HBsu.
A homologous class of histonelike proteins which are believed to wrap the DNA and to condense the chromosome into highly folded nucleoid structures has been identified in different bacterial species. Bacillus subtilis encodes a homodimeric DNA-binding protein called HBsu. We have cloned the corresponding gene (hbs) on a 3.8-kb fragment. The gene was subcloned to a 1-kb fragment, sequenced, and ...
متن کاملMolecular cloning and nucleotide sequence of the gene encoding phosphate-inducible pectin lyase of Bacillus subtilis.
The gene encoding the pectin lyase (PNL; EC 4.2.2.10) of Bacillus subtilis has been cloned, sequenced, and characterized. A coding sequence for the PNL composed of 345 amino acids including a 24-amino-acid signal peptide was assigned. No sequence resembling a LexA binding site was found upstream of the structural gene. Furthermore, PNL activity of the gene product expressed in Escherichia coli ...
متن کاملCloning the hbs gene from Bacillus subtilis and expression of the HBsu protein in Escherichia coli
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Bacillus subtilis HBsu is a 10 kD heat-stable protein shown to be involved in binding to DNA and is encoded by the hbs gene. Large-scale production for biochemical analysis is achieved through cloning and expression of the recombinant protein. MATERIALS AND METHODS This gene was amplified from B. subtilis ATCC 6633 using PCR and cloned into pET28a (+) expression vect...
متن کاملMolecular cloning, genetic characterization and DNA sequence analysis of the recM region of Bacillus subtilis.
In Bacillus subtilis the recM gene, whose product is associated with DNA repair and recombination, has been located between the dnaX and rrnA genes. The recM gene has been cloned and analyzed. Analysis of the nucleotide sequence (3.741-kilobase) around recM revealed five open reading frames (orf). We have assigned recM and dnaX to two of this orf, given the gene order dnaX-orf107-recM-orf74-orf...
متن کاملNucleotide sequence and cloning in Bacillus subtilis of the Bacillus stearothermophilus pleiotropic regulatory gene degT.
The regulatory gene (degT) from Bacillus stearothermophilus NCA1503 which enhanced production of extracellular alkaline protease (Apr) was cloned in Bacillus subtilis with pTB53 as a vector. When B. subtilis MT-2 (Npr- [deficiency of neutral protease] Apr+) was transformed with the recombinant plasmid, pDT145, the plasmid carrier produced about three times more alkaline protease than did the wi...
