Abstract

The nucleotide sequence of the cloned cellulolytic xylanase gene (bglBC2) from B. circulans ATCC21367 was determined. bglBC2 consists of an 1,224 bp open reading frame (ORF) coding for a polypeptide of 407 amino acids with a deduced molecular weight of 45 kDa. The Shine-Dalgarno (SD) sequence (5'-AAAGGAG-3') was found 9 bp upstream of the initiation codon, ATG. A promoter region corresponding closely to the B. subtilis consensus sequence (-35: TTGACA,-10: TATAAT) was detected, the putative -35 and -10 sequences of which were TTTACA and TATACT, respectively. The deduced amino acid sequence of the cellulolytic xylanase showed 97% homology with that of the alkaline $endo-\beta-1,4-glucanase$ from B. circulans KSM-N257, 75% homology with that of the $endo-\beta-1,3-1,4-glucanase$ from B. circulans WL-12, and 45% homology with that of the $endo-\beta-1,4-glucanase$ (cellulase) from Bacillus sp. KSM-330. The bglBC2 sequence was deposited in Gen-Bank under the accession number AY269256.

클로닝된 Bacillus circulans ATCC21367 유래 cellulolytic xylanase 유전자(bglBC2)의 염기서열을 결정 분석하였다. 본 유전자는 1,224 bp의 407개 아미노산을 암호하는 open reading frame (ORF)으로 구성되어 있었으며 염기서열로부터 산출된 유전자의 분자량은 45 kDa으로 효소의 SDS-PAGE로부터 측정된 분자량과 일치하였다. ATG 개시 코돈의 9bp 위쪽에 Shine-Dalgarno (SD) 서열로 추정되는 5'-AAAGGAG-3' 서열이 확인되었고 그 상단에 promoter로 추정되는 -35 서열(TTTACA)과 -10 서열(TATACT)이 위치하고 있었으며, 이는 B. subtilis promoter consensus sequence와 유사하였다. 한편, 이 효소의 아미노산 서열은 이미 보고된 B. circulans KSM-N257의 alkaline $endo-\beta-1,4-glucanase$와는 97%, B. circulans WL-12의 $endo-\beta-1,3-1,4-glucanase$와는 75%, Bacillus sp. KSM-330의 $endo-\beta-1,4-glucanase$ (cellulase)와는 45%의 유사성을 나타내었다. 또한 bglBCS 염기서 열의 정보를 GenBank에 등록하였으며 등록번호는 Ar269256이다.
