Triphenylmethane reductase from Citrobacter sp. strain KCTC 18061P: purification, characterization, gene cloning, and overexpression of a functional protein in Escherichia coli.
We purified to homogeneity an enzyme from Citrobacter sp. strain KCTC 18061P capable of decolorizing triphenylmethane dyes. The native form of the enzyme was identified as a homodimer with a subunit molecular mass of about 31 kDa. It catalyzes the NADH-dependent reduction of triphenylmethane dyes, with remarkable substrate specificity related to dye structure. Maximal enzyme activity occurred a...
متن کاملMycobacterium tuberculosis HspX/EsxS Fusion Protein: Gene Cloning, Protein Expression, and Purification in Escherichia coli
Background: The purpose of this study was to clone, express, and purify a novel multidomain fusion protein of Micobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) in a prokaryotic system. Methods: An hspX/esxS gene construct was synthesized and ligated into a pGH plasmid, E. coli TOP10 cells were transformed, and the vector was purified. The vector containing the construct and pET-21b (+) plasmid were digested ...
متن کاملTHE GENE CLONING, OVEREXPRESSION, PURIFICATION, AND CHARACTERIZATION OF DIBENZOTHIOPHENE MONOOXYGENASE AND DESULFINASE FROM GORDONIA ALKANIVORANS RIPI90A
The biodesulfurization (BDS) of sulfur compounds in fossil fuels is a process to reduce sulfur dioxide emissions that cause environmental pollution. Gordonia alkanivorans RIPI90A is able to convert dibenzothiophene, an organic sulfur compound in petroleum, to 2-hydroxybiphenyl (2-HBP) in 4S pathway. In this study, (DBT), DszA and DszB, DBT sulfone monooxygenase, and desulfinase were respectivel...
متن کاملCloning and evaluation of gene expression and purification of gene encoding recombinant protein containing binding subunit of coli surface antigens CS1 and CS2 from Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli
Background & Objective: Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) is a major causative agent of diarrhea. Enterotoxins and the colonization factors (CFs) are major virulence factors in ETEC infections. The bacterium binds to the intestinal epithelial cell surface through colonization factors and produces enterotoxins that cause excessive fluid and electrolyte secretion in the lumen of the intesti...
متن کاملA maltooligosaccharide-forming amylase gene from Brachybacterium sp. strain LB25: cloning and expression in Escherichia coli.
Brachybacterium sp. strain LB25 produces a maltooligosaccharide-forming amylase that improves product selectivity in water-miscible organic solvents. The enzyme hydrolyzed starch to produce maltotriose primarily. The structural gene encoding the amylase from strain LB25 was cloned and sequenced. The amino acid sequence of the product showed significant similarity (45 to 49%) to amylases from th...
