Molecular cloning, DNA nucleotide sequencing, and expression in Bacillus subtilis cells of the Bacillus macerans cyclodextrin glucanotransferase gene
Abstract
The gene for cyclodextrin glucanotransferase from Bacillus macerans was cloned in an Escherichia coli bacteriophage, lambda D69, and was recloned in a Bacillus subtilis plasmid, pUB110. Starting from an ATG initiation codon, a unique reading frame was shown to extend for 2,142 base pairs (714 amino acids). The nucleotide sequence revealed that the enzyme is composed of two identical subunits.
