Nucleotide sequence of the hag gene encoding flagellin of Escherichia coli.

Synthesis and Expression of Modified bFGF Gene in Escherichia coli Cells

A new strategy for construction of synthetic gene encoding human basic fibroblast growth factor comprising DNA annealing-ligation and augmentation by polymerase chain reaction was introduced. The sequence of the gene and corresponding amino acid chain were modified in order to increase stability of the protein. First, 300 bp and 160 bp fragments of the gene were assembled from 18 oligonucleotid...

Regulation of expression of the flagellin gene (hag) in Escherichia coli K-12: analysis of hag-lac gene fusions.

Previous studies have defined 28 genes necessary for the synthesis of the flagellar apparatus of Escherichia coli K-12. This study analyzed the influence of the flagellar genes on the expression of the hag gene (structural gene for flagellin). To this end, a hag::Mu d(Apr lac) mutant which had the lac genes fused to the promoter of the hag gene was constructed. This allowed the measurement of h...

Analysis of the flagellin (hag) gene of alkalophilic Bacillus sp. C-125.

Motility of the alkalophilic Bacillus sp. C-125, a flagellate bacterium, was demonstrated to be Na(+)- and pH-dependent. Flagellin protein from this strain was purified to homogeneity and the N-terminal sequence determined. Using the hag gene of Bacillus subtilis as a probe, the hag gene of Bacillus sp. C-125 was identified and cloned into Escherichia coli. Sequencing of this hag gene revealed ...

PCR-mediated Expression of the Human GM-CSF Gene in Escherichia coli

Four exons of the human genomic GM-CSF gene were assembled together using gene splicing by overlap extension (SOE) method. The resulting nucleotide sequence was cloned in the pET23a(+) ex‌pression vector under the control of strong bacteriophage T7 transcription and translation signals. The construct obtained was Transferred into the E. coli strain, BL21(DE3) pLysS and IPTG was used for inducti...
