Pectate lyase gene regulatory mutants of Erwinia chrysanthemi.
The pelB gene, which encodes one of the five pectate lyase isoenzymes of Erwinia chrysanthemi 3937, was mutagenized with a mini-Mu transposable element that can form gene fusions to the neomycin phosphotransferase-encoding region. Secondary mutants resistant to kanamycin in the absence of polygalacturonate, an inducer of wild-type pectate lyase activities, were selected. Such mutants produced o...
متن کاملEnzyme assay for identification of pectin and pectin derivatives, based on recombinant pectate lyase.
A simple method was developed for fast identification of pectin, based on a recombinant endopectate lyase cloned from Aspergillus niger. When pectin was demethylated and treated with pectate lyase, beta-elimination occurred, resulting in a double bond between C-4 and C-5 in the galacturonic acid residue of the released nonreducing end. The formation of double bonds produced an increase in light...
متن کاملCharacterization of the Erwinia carotovora pelB gene and its product pectate lyase.
The pelB gene encodes pectate lyase B, one of three pectate lyases identified in Erwinia carotovora EC. Pectate lyase B was purified from Escherichia coli containing the pelB gene on a recombinant plasmid. The activity of the protein was optimal at a pH of 8.3. The amino acid composition, N-terminal amino acid sequence, and C-terminal peptide sequence were determined and compared with the polyp...
متن کاملRegulation of the Aspergillus nidulans Pectate Lyase
Aspergillus nidulans pectate lyase was purified from culture filtrates. The enzyme catalyzed a random eliminative cleavage reaction, had an apparent molecular weight of 40,000, and a pl of 4.2. Pectate lyase antisera were produced and used to identify pectate lyase clones in a cDNA expression library. Thirteen of 14 clones identified immunologically cross-hybridized. The identity of the single-...
متن کاملAn unusual pectate lyase from a Bacillus sp. with high activity on pectin: cloning and characterization.
The gene pelA encoding a pectate lyase from the strain Bacillus sp. BP-23 was cloned and expressed in Escherichia coli. The nucleotide sequence of a 1214 bp DNA fragment containing pelA gene was determined, revealing an ORF of 666 nucleotides that encoded a protein of 23233 Da. The deduced amino acid sequence of the encoded enzyme showed homology to pectate lyases A, B, C and D from Fusarium so...
