Cellulases of Thermomonospora fusca and Streptomyces thermodiastaticus.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The cellulases of Streptomyces thermodiastaticus (strain 2Sts) and thermomonospora fusca (strain 190Th) were produced with carboxymethyl-cellulose (CMC) serving as the carbon source during growth. Both cellulases act by random internal hydrolysis of the CMC chain, producing cellobiose, glucose, and intermediate length oligosaccharides. Cellobiase was not detected in culture filtrates produced under these conditions.

Regulation of biosynthesis of individual cellulases in Thermomonospora fusca.
Regulation of the biosynthesis of the six cellulases comprising the cellulolytic system of the thermophilic soil bacterium Thermomonospora fusca ER1 was studied. The levels of the individual enzymes produced on different noninducing and inducing carbon sources were determined. The lowest level of cellulase synthesis (3 nM) was observed with xylose as a carbon source, and the highest level (247 ...
متن کاملGenetic Recombination and Transformation in Protoplasts of Thermomonospora fusca.
Protoplasts were produced from the thermophilic actinomycete Thermomonospora fusca and were regenerated to 0.1% of the direct count on regeneration agar. Recombination after protoplast fusion was demonstrated with drug-resistant mutants of T. fusca YX. A single thiostrepton-resistant colony was isolated after transformation of T. fusca YX with the streptomycete vector pIJ702, providing the firs...
متن کاملCharacterization and cloning of celR, a transcriptional regulator of cellulase genes from Thermomonospora fusca.
CelR, a protein that regulates transcription of cellulase genes in Thermomonospora fusca (Actinomycetaceae) was purified to homogeneity. A 6-kilobase NotI-SacI fragment of T. fusca DNA containing the celR gene was cloned into Esherichia coli and sequenced. The celR gene encodes a 340-residue polypeptide that is highly homologous to members of the GalR-LacI family of bacterial transcriptional re...
متن کاملCloning, sequencing, and expression of a Thermomonospora fusca protease gene in Streptomyces lividans.
The major Thermomonospora fusca YX extracellular protease gene (tfpA) was cloned into Escherichia coli and Streptomyces lividans and was sequenced. The open reading frame encoded 375 residues, including a 31-residue potential signal sequence, an N-terminal prosequence containing 150 residues, and the 194-residue mature protease that belongs to the chymotrypsin family. The protease was secreted ...
متن کاملCloning of a Thermomonospora fusca xylanase gene and its expression in Escherichia coli and Streptomyces lividans.
Thermomonospora fusca chromosomal DNA was partially digested with EcoRI to obtain 4- to 14-kilobase fragments, which were used to construct a library of recombinant phage by ligation with EcoRI arms of lambda gtWES. lambda B. A recombinant phage coding for xylanase activity which contained a 14-kilobase insert was identified. The xylanase gene was localized to a 2.1-kilobase SalI fragment of th...
