Abstract
|
|
|
We have cloned the Bacillus cellulyticus K-12 avicelase(Avi, E.G.3.2.1.4) gene(ace A) in E. coli. This was accompanied by using the vector pT7T3U19 and Hind ¥² -Hind¥² libraries of Bacillus cellulyticus K-12 chromosomal inserts created in E. coli. The libraries were screened for the expression of avicelase by monitoring the immunoreaction of the anti-avicelase(immunoscreening). Positive clones(Ac-3, Ac-5, and Ac-7) contained the identical 3.5kb Hind¥² fragment as determined by restriction mapping and Southern hybridization, and expressed avicelase efficiently and constituvely using its own promoter in the heterologous host. From the immunoblotting analysis, a polypeptide which showed a CMCase activity with an Mr of 54000 was detected.
