The result shows that an individual gene of lip gene family responds differently to different nutrient factors. The expression of lipD gene can be promoted by molecular O2 but suppressed by Mn2+. The influence of nitorgen is not the controlling factor for lipD gene expression. No clear relationship is found between nutrient factors and the expression of lipA gene which may be regulated by several nutrient factors through a complex system. Mnp3 gene is not strongly regulated by Mn2+ and other nutrient factors. It can be expressed in different media. CBHI gene family can not be expressed in the presence of glucose as the sole carbon source. Glx expression is regulated by Mn2+ and molecular O2, and depressed when Mn2+ concerntration goes up to 300 mg/L. The transcription patterns of lip gene family grown on fir wood chip are shown to be markedly different from those patterns in defined media. The expression of single lip gene changes with colonized time. No difference is observed between the expression pattern of mnp, cbh, glx gene in defined media and fir wood chips.展开更多

A gelatinolytic enzyme called PAC exhibiting collagenolytic activity is purified by SP sepharose fast flow, Sephadex G-200 gel filtration and native PAGE cutting method. The purified enzyme has an apparent molecular weight of about 110 kD by SDS PAGE without β-mercaptoethanol. Treatment withβ-Me suggests that PAC is dissociated into three subunits approximately 33 kD,25 kD and 20 kD with a ratio of 2∶1∶1, named sub A, sub B and sub C repectively. EDTA and EGTA display a significant inhibitory effect on the enzyme activity while PMSF, leupeptin and pepstain do not appreciably inhibit it. The first 15 amino acid residues of the major subunit (subA) are determined and the sequence is Ala-Glu-Ala-Gly-Gly-Pro-Gly-Gly-Asn-Gln-Lys-Ile-Gly -Lys-Tyr. This sequence is identical to that of elastase of P.aeruginosa. The fragment of encoding mature sub A is cloned and its sequence is determined, which has a high homology with the gene of elastase. These results indicate that PAC is a novel collagenolytic metalloprotease composed of three kinds of subunits, of which elastase is the major one.展开更多

The recombinant DNA molecules are transformed into Escherichia coli cells and eight-three Kanr clones (named pSUBp1- pSUBp83) are obtained. The inserted fragments in pSUBp53, pSUBp57, pSUBp21, which showed high level of kanamycin - resistance, are sequenced and analyzed, respectively. These fragments contain some conserved sequences of prokaryotic gene promoters, such as TATAAT and TTGACA box. The promoter fragment Bp53 could efficiently promote the alkaline protease gene of B.pumilus expression not only in E.coli but also in B.subtilis cells.展开更多
