Partial Cloning and Nucleotide Sequencing of Glutamate Decarboxylase Gene Isoform 65 from Human Brain
Background: Gamma -aminobutyric acid (GABA), a non-protein amino acid acts as an inhibitory neurotransmitter in the central nervous system of mammalians. The glutamate decarboxylase (GAD) is responsible for the conversion of L-glutamate to GABA. The human brain has two isoforms of this enzyme, GAD65 and GAD67 that differ in molecular weight, amino acid sequence, antigenicity, cellular location ...
متن کاملIdentification and molecular cloning of glutamate decarboxylase gene from Lactobacillus casei
Gamma-amino butyric acid (GABA) possesses several physiological functions such as neurotransmission, induction of hypotension, diuretic and tranquilizer effects. Production of GABA-enriched products by lactic acid bacteria has been a focus of different researches in recent years because of their safety and health-promoting specifities. In this study, glutamate decarboxylase (gad) gene of a loca...
متن کاملCloning and characterization of the galactokinase gene from Streptococcus thermophilus.
The objective of this research was to clone and characterize the galactokinase gene (galK) from Streptococcus thermophilus F410. Partially digested genomic DNA was cloned into pBR322 and transformed into galK Escherichia coli, and a galactose-fermenting transformant was isolated. Restriction analysis revealed that the transformant resulted from a Sau3A-HindIII 4.0-kb fragment. Galactokinase act...
متن کاملmolecular gene cloning and sequencing of glutamate decarboxylase gene from lactobacillus delbrueckii and lactobacillus reuteri
glutamate decarboxylase enzyme produces γ-aminobutyric acid (gaba) in a non-reversible decarboxylation reaction of glutamate. gaba is a major inhibitory neurotransmitter of the brain and it is also present at high concentration in other organs such as pancreatic islets. gaba has effects on blood pressure, diabetes, inflammation, sleeplessness and depression. some bacteria such as lactobacillus ...
متن کاملCloning and expression of the beta-D-galactosidase gene from Streptococcus thermophilus in Escherichia coli.
The beta-D-galactosidase (beta-gal) gene from Streptococcus thermophilus was cloned to isolate and characterize it for potential use as a selection marker in a food-grade cloning vector. Chromosomal DNA from S. thermophilus 19258 was cleaved with the restriction enzyme PstI and ligated to pBR322 for transformation into Escherichia coli JM108. A beta-galactosidase-positive clone was detected by ...
