Cloning and expression of genes coding for carbohydrate degrading enzymes of Anaerocellum thermophilum in E.coli.

Abstract:

:A gene library of Anaerocellum thermophilum Z-1320 was constructed in Escherichia coli using plasmid pUC18. Clones were selected by screening for hydrolysis of CMC, MU-Cel, lichenan and xylan. Recombinant clones expressing two beta-1,4-glucanases and two different xylanases were obtained. Both beta-1,4-glucanases were capable of degrading Avicel. Clones with xylanase activity also cleft PNPXyl, MU-Glu and MU-Cel. The genes of one beta-1,4-glucanase and one xylanase are probably located in the same region of A.thermophilum chromosome.

  • Identification of a novel seven-transmembrane receptor with homology to glycoprotein receptors and its expression in the adult and developing mouse.

    abstract::Using a PCR-based cloning strategy we have isolated a cDNA from mouse brain and named it fex, because it codes for a novel putative G protein-coupled receptor expressed in follicles. The deduced amino acid sequence shows a higher degree of homology to the family of glycoprotein receptors, namely those for FSH, LH, and...
