چکیده

By cloning the beta-galactosidase gene of Bacillus stearothermophilus IAM11001 (ATCC 8005) into Bacillus subtilis, enzyme production was enhanced 50 times. beta-Galactosidase could be purified to 80% homogeneity by incubating the cell extract of B. subtilis at 70 degrees C for 15 min, followed by centrifugation to remove the denatured proteins. Because of its heat stability and ease of production, beta-galactosidase is suitable for application in industrial processes.

Heat shock proteins do not influence wet heat resistance of Bacillus subtilis spores.

Spores of Bacillus subtilis are significantly more resistant to wet heat than are their vegetative cell counterparts. Analysis of the effects of mutations in and the expression of fusions of a coding gene for a thermostable beta-galactosidase to a number of heat shock genes has shown that heat shock proteins play no significant role in the wet heat resistance of B. subtilis spores.

Cloning and Expression of Thermostable alpha-Amylase Gene from Bacillus stearothermophilus in Bacillus stearothermophilus and Bacillus subtilis.

The structural gene for a thermostable alpha-amylase from Bacillus stearothermophilus was cloned in plasmids pTB90 and pTB53. It was expressed in both B. stearothermophilus and Bacillus subtilis. B. stearothermophilus carrying the recombinant plasmid produced about fivefold more alpha-amylase (20.9 U/mg of dry cells) than did the wild-type strain of B. stearothermophilus. Some properties of the...

Purification and Characterization of Thermostable Pullulanase from Bacillus stearothermophilus and Molecular Cloning and Expression of the Gene in Bacillus subtilis.

A thermostable pullulanase (alpha-dextrin 6-glucanohydrolase [EC 3.2.1.41]) from a newly isolated Bacillus stearothermophilus strain (TRS128) was purified and characterized. The enzyme hydrolyzed (1-->6)-alpha-d-glucosidic linkages of pullulan to produce maltotriose, and the optimum temperature was 65 degrees C. About 90% of the enzyme activity was retained after treatment at 65 degrees C for 6...

Molecular basis of isozyme formation of beta-galactosidases in Bacillus stearothermophilus: isolation of two beta-galactosidase genes, bgaA and bgaB.

Bacillus stearothermophilus IAM11001 produced three beta-galactosidases, beta-galactosidase I, II, and III (beta-gal I, II, and III), which are detectable by polyacrylamide (nondenatured) gel electrophoresis. By connecting restriction fragments of the chromosomal DNA to plasmid vectors, followed by transformation of Escherichia coli, two beta-galactosidase genes (bgaA and bgaB) located close to...
