E.coli의 cytidine deaminase(cytidine/2'-deoxy-cytidine aminohydrolas` EC 3.5.4.5)를 코딩하는 cdd 유전자를 E.coli cdd- pyr- 결손 변이주를 cloning host로 하여 southern blotting과 colony hybridization을 통하여 클로닝하였다. cdd 유전자가 단편인, cdd 유전자의 transcription initiation 부위의 23개 nucleotide를 합성한 후 probe로 사용하여 Southern hybridization에 의해 회수된 cdd 유전자를 함유한 단편을 얻었으며, 이를 pBR322에 삽입한 후 형질전환하여 colony hybridization한 결과 cdd+ cell을 얻었다. 삽입된 DNA 단편의 size는 27kb이었으며 이를 결실 및 subcloning을 연속 수행한 결과 2.1kb의 SalI/ DraI fragment(pTK605)에 cdd 유전자가 location 되어 있음을 알게 되었다. Mini cell 실험결과 합성된 cytidine deaminase의 활성이 pBR322에서 증폭시킴으로서 37배 정도 배가되었으며, pBR322에 비해 pUC vector계에서 다시 활성이 7배 정도 증가됨을 알 수 있었다.

The Salmonella typhimurium cdd gene encoding cytidine deaminase (cyti-dine/2'-deoxycytidine aminohydrolase; EC 3.5.4.5.) was isolated through shotgun clon-ing by complementation of the E. coli odd mutation. By subsequent deletion and sub-cloning from the original 3.7 Kb of EcoRI insert (pSAMI), the precise region of the cdd structural gene is located around the BglII site in the middle part of 1.7 Kb of NruI/PvuI segment. The 1.7 Kb containing odd gene wag subcloned to the pUC18 vector and the nucleotide sequence of the cdd gene was determined. When the putative ribosorne-binding site (Shine-Dalgarno sequence) and initiation codon were predicted to be GAGG at the position 459 and ATG at the position 470, respectively, there was an open reading frame of 885 nucleotides, encoding an 294 amino acid protein. The cdd gene expression in E. coli JF611/pSAMI was amplified about 50 fold compared to that of the wild type. The cdd gene expression was maintained in the stationary phase after rea-ching the peak in the late logarithmic phase.

In order to secrete the Bacillus subtilis cytidine deaminase (CDase, cytidine/2'-deoxycytidine deaminase) encoded by the B. subtilis cdd gene in E. coli by the aid of signal sequences, the cdd gene was fused in-frame to either amyE or penP signal sequences and the gene expression and CDase localization were examined. For the penP signal sequence::cdd fusion, the cdd gene with 9 amino acids truncated from the 5'-terminus was fused in-frame to the signal sequence, then the $cdd^{+}$ colonies were not occurred from the minimal plate by cdd complementation. The result suggests that 9 amino acids on the $NH_2-terminal$ of CDase have an essential function in the enzyme activity. The hybrid protein obtained by fused gene amyE signal sequence::cdd structural gene gave $cdd^{+}$ phenotype and about half of the total CDase activity was found to be secreted in the periplasm of E. coli transformant JF611/pSO202. The periplasmic CDase activity of JF611 harboring pSO52 containing the intact cdd gene was considerablely lower than that of the cells harboring pSO202 carrying the hybrid cdd gene. This suggests that the CDase was secreted to the periplasm through the cytoplasmic membrane by the aid of the amyE signal sequence in the E. coli transformant.

Bacillus stearothermophilus의 cytidine deaminase (cytidine/2'-deoxycytidine aminohydrolase：EC 3.5.4.5)를 코딩하는 cdd 유전자를 E. coli cdd$^-$ 결손변이주를 cloning host로 하여 3-10Kbp의 B. stearothermophilus DNA 단편으로부터 shot gun 법으로 클로닝하였다. 고 복제수 플라스미드 pBR322 의 PstI 부위에 3.0Kb의 B. stearothermophilus DNA 단편을 함유한 pJSC101이 cdd$^+$와 tetracy-line 내성으로서 cloning되었으며, 이어서, 결실 및 subcloning을 연속 수행한 결과 약 1.35kbp의 Eco RI$_1$/PstI$_2$단편이 동일 부위의 pBR322에 삽입된 cdd 양성의 pJSC201을 얻었다. Mini 세포 실험결과, 이 단편에서 합성되는 polypeptide는 약 33 KDa이었기에 이 polypeptide가 cytidine deaminase 로 추정되었다. 또한 이 단편에 함유한 550bp의 EcoRI/AvaI 부분을 lacZ 프로모터 영역에 삽입한 경우 프로모터 활성을 나타내었기에 이 단편의 Eco RI 부위에서 PstI부위로 cdd 유전자가 전사됨을 알 수 있었다. B. subilis와 E. coli에서 발현이 가능한 shuttle vector에 cdd가 함유된 단편을 삽입한 후 이를 양세포에서 동시 발현시켰을 때 B. subtilis에서 발현시킨 경우가 E. coli에서 보다높은 cytidine deaminase 활성을 나타내었으며 이 유전자는 B. subtilis 에서도 E. coli에서와 같이 안정하게 유지됨을 알 수 있었다.

The cdd gene of Bacillus subtilis, encoding the deoxycytidinecytidine deaminase of pyrimidine nucleotide biosynthesis has been cloned into the EcoRl site of pBR322. The recombinant plasmid, pSol, promoted the synthesis of 100-140 fold elevated levels of the enzyme. A comparison of the polypeptides encoded by cdd complementing and non-complementing plasmids in the mini cell showed the gene product to have a molecular mass of approximately 14 kDa. The nucleotide sequence of the gene and 460 base pairs upstream from the coding region was determined. An open-reading frame, encoding a protein with a calculated molecular mass of 14337 Da, was deduced to be the coding region for cdd. However, the enzyme has an apparent molecular mass of 54 kDa as determined by gel filteration, whereas sucrose density gradient centrifugation shows 58 kDa. It means that the enzyme could be forming a tetramer in a physiological state. About 28 amino acids of the N-tetramer in a physiological state. About 28 amino acids of the N-terminal presumably form a signal for membrane translocation and six cystein residues are contained in the structure. S1 nuclease mapping indicated that transcription of cdd is initiated 17 base pairs upstream from the translational start. The structural characterization of the odd gene was performed.

고초균 (Bacillus subtilis)의 cytidine/2'deoxycytidine deaminase (EC 3.5.4.5)를 로드하는 cdd 유전자를 cdd 결손변이주 B. subtilis ED4O에서 발현시켰다. 이 cdd 유전자는 Bacillus의 λD69 유전자은행으로부터 처음 클로닝된 것으로서 B. subtilis-Escherichia coli 의 shuttle vector pGB 215-110ΔB의 EcoRl/Pvul 부위에 삽입시켰다. 형질전환된 ED4O는 야생주에 비해 3700unit의 강한 cdd 활성을 나타내었으며 이 클론된 백터 pSO100 을 E. coli에서 발현시키면 B. subtilis 비해 2배의 강한 활성을 나타내었다. 겔 여과로 부분정제한 본 효소의 Km치는 1.88$\times$$10^{-4}$M이었으며 Vmax=11.1 $\mu$mol/min/mg 단백이었다. 이 효소는 0.1M mercaptoethanol과 수은에 의해 완전저해되었으며 p-chloromercurybenzoic acid에 대해 Ki=5$\mu$M로 나타났다. 본 효소의 활성상실은 monomer에 함유된 6개의 cysteine 잔기의 일부가 활성단으로 작용하는 과정이 저해되었거나 tetramer로서의 회합과정이 저해되었기 때문인 것으로 추측되었다.

A 3, 346 bp of the cdd upstream region in Bacillus subtilis was sequenced from the pSO1 (Song BH and J Neuhard. 1989. Mol. Gen. Genet 216: 462-468) and sequence homology was searched to the known genes in Genbank and European Molecular Biology Laboratory databanks. Five complete and one truncated putative coding sequences deduced from the nucleotide sequence were found through the ORF searching by Genetyx and Macvector software, and one of them was identified as the dgk (diacylglycerol kinase) gene and another, a truncated one, as the phoH (phosphate starvation-inducible gene) gene. The B. subtilis dgk gene, having a role for response to several environmental stress signals, revealed an open reading frame of 134 amino acids with 43.1% of sequence identity to the Streptococcus mutans dgk gene. The carboxy terminal 59 residues of the truncated phoH gene showed 52.7% and 34.5% of sequence identity in amino acids with the corresponding genes of Mycobacterium leprae and Escherichia coli. The four remaining coding sequences consisting of 115, 421, 91, and 91 residues were thought to be unknown ORFs because they have no significant similarity to known genes.

Multiple sequence alignment is a method to compare two or more DNA or protein sequences. Most of multiple sequence alignment tools rely on pairwise alignment and Smith-Waterman algorithm to generate an alignment hierarchy. Therefore, in the existing multiple alignment method as the number of sequences increases, the runtime increases exponentially. In order to remedy this problem, we adopted a parallel processing suffix tree algorithm that is able to search for common subsequences at one time without pairwise alignment. Also, the cross-matching subsequences triggering inexact-matching among the searched common subsequences might be produced. So, the cross-matching masking process was suggested in this paper. To identify the function of the clusters generated by suffix tree clustering, BLAST and CDD (Conserved Domain Database)search were combined with a clustering tool. Our clustering and annotating tool consists of constructing suffix tree, overlapping common subsequences, clustering gene sequences and annotating gene clusters by BLAST and CDD search. The system was successfully evaluated with 36 gene sequences in the pentose phosphate pathway, clustering 10 clusters, finding out representative common subsequences, and finally identifying functional domains by searching CDD database.
