Bacterial Expression and Functional Characterization of A Naturally Occurring Exon6-less Preprochymosin cDNA
Chymosin (Rennin EC 3.4.23.4), an aspartyl proteinase, is the major proteolytic enzyme in the fourthstomach of the unweaned calf, and it is formed by proteolytic activation of its zymogene, prochymosin.Following the cloning of synthesized cDNAs on mRNA pools extracted from the mucosa of the calf fourthstomach, we have identified an alternatively spliced form of preprochymosin ...
متن کاملActivator-independent gene expression in Neurospora crassa.
A transgenic position effect that causes activator-independent gene expression has been described previously for three Neurospora crassa phosphate-repressible genes. We report analogous findings for two additional positively regulated genes, qa-2+ and ars-1+, indicating that such position effects are not limited to genes involved in phosphorus metabolism. In addition, we have characterized a nu...
متن کاملMitochondrial porin of Neurospora crassa: cDNA cloning, in vitro expression and import into mitochondria.
cDNA encoding porin of Neurospora crassa, the major protein component of the outer mitochondrial membrane, was isolated and the nucleotide sequence was determined. The deduced protein sequence consists of 283 amino acids (29,979 daltons) and shows sequence homology of around 43% to yeast porin; however, no significant homology to bacterial porins was apparent. According to secondary structure p...
متن کاملExpression of a plant protein by Neurospora crassa.
Heterologous expression of plant genes may serve as an important alternative for producing plant proteins. We have investigated the ability of the fungus Neurospora crassa to secrete zeamatin, a protein produced by Zea mays. Zeamatin was induced after being fused to glucoamylase, an extracellular hydrolase produced by N. crassa. Glucoamylase induction and other culture parameters were monitored...
متن کاملLight-Inducible System for Tunable Protein Expression in Neurospora crassa
Filamentous fungi are important model systems for understanding eukaryotic cellular processes, including the study of protein expression. A salient feature of fungi is the ability of the protein-processing machinery to perform all of the extensive posttranslational modifications needed in the complex world of eukaryotic organisms, making them great hosts for production of eukaryotic proteins. I...
