Abstract:
:The genes coding for the phospholipid degradation enzymes in E. coli, detergent-resistant (DR-) phospholipase A (pldA) and lysophospholipase L2 (pldB), were cloned together on the plasmid pKO1 (Homma, H., Kobayashi, T., Ito, Y., Kudo, I., Inoue, K., Ikeda, H., Sekiguchi, M., & Nojima, S. (1983) J. Biochem. 94, 2079-2081). To study their gene organization, a transducing lambda phage, lambda pldApldB, carrying both the pldA and pldB genes was constructed in vitro from plasmid pKO1. Viable deletion mutants of lambda pldApldB were isolated by EDTA killing, and their deleted DNA regions were determined by electron microscopic analysis of appropriate heteroduplexes. The activities of DR-phospholipase A and lysophospholipase L2 were also measured in lysates of cells infected with the deletion phages. The DNA region essential for the expression of each lipolytic activity was determined. In addition, proteins coded by the bacterial DNA on the plasmids containing the pldApldB region to various extents were detected by the maxicell system. The results showed that the product of the pldB gene is a protein with molecular weight of 40,000. It was also shown that the pldB gene is located at a region about 3 kilobase from the pldA gene.
