Cloning of the glycerol kinase gene of Bacillus subtilis.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A 3.5 kb fragment of Bacillus subtilis DNA which contains wild type alleles of mutations in glpK (glycerol kinase) and glpD (glycerol-3-phosphate [G3P] dehydrogenase) was cloned in plasmid pHV32 in Escherichia coli. The cloned fragment expresses glycerol kinase in B. subtilis mutants carrying the mutations glpK11 and recE4 after induction with glycerol or G3P whereas it does not express G3P dehydrogenase. The cloned fragment thus contains the complete glpK but probably only part of glpD.

To evaluate the role of wild promoter of L-phenylalanine dehydrogenase (PheDH) gene, referred to as pdh, from Bacillus sphaericus in expression, cloning of pdh gene in Bacillus subtilis was performed. The whole pdh gene was cloned in pHY300PLK shuttle vector and amplified, construct (pHYDH) then transformed in B. subtilis ISW1214 and E. coli JM109. The pdh endogenous promoter presented no effec...

Background: The immune antigen of Bacillus anthracis is a protein that can attach to the surface receptor of all human cells. At the surface of cancer cells, there is a receptor that activates the uPA (Urokinase plasminogen) that do not exist in normal human cells. Objectives: The aim of this study was changing the location of the attachment of the PA gene by a dir...

Background and Aims: The ectodomain of matrix protein of influenza virus is a weak immunogen that is highly conserved among all subtypes of influenza A virus. Tandem repeats of these genes along with linker were used to enhance immunogenicity of M2e protein and so it can be served as a universal vaccine in both humans and livestock. Materials and Methods: In this study, the sequences of extra-d...
