A cDNA library from Aspergillus niger strain NRRL‐3 enriched in sequences encoding the glucose oxidase was constructed. An 800 bp cDNA clone isolated from this library was used to screen 12 000 recombinant phages from an EMBL3 genomic library. A 15 kbp DNA segment isolated from this library contained the 1815 bp structural gene for glucose oxidase as well as a short 5′‐ and a longer 3′‐noncoding region. The deduced protein sequence was verified by partial peptide sequencing.

Transcription termination and RNA degradation contribute to silencing of RNA polymerase II transcription within heterochromatin.
Vasiljeva, L; Kim, M; Terzi Çizmecioğlu, Nihal; Soares, LM; Buratowski, S (Elsevier BV, 2008-02-15)
Within the heterochromatin of budding yeast, RNA polymerase II (RNAPII) transcription is repressed by the Sir2 deacetylase. Although heterochromatic silencing is generally thought to be due to limited accessibility of the underlying DNA, there are several reports of RNAPII and basal transcription factors within silenced regions. Analysis of the rDNA array revealed cryptic RNAPII transcription within the "non-transcribed" spacer region. These transcripts are terminated by the Nrd1 /Sen1 complex and degraded ...
Cloning and expression of the Clostridium thermocellum L-lactate dehydrogenase gene in Escherichia coli and enzyme characterization
Ozkan, M; Yilmaz, EI; Lynd, LR; Özcengiz, Gülay (Canadian Science Publishing, 2004-10-01)
The structural gene for L-lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) (EC.1.1.1.27) from Clostridium thermocellum 27405 was cloned in Escherichia coli by screening the Lambda Zap 11 phage library of C. thermocellum genomic DNA. In one positive clone, an open reading frame of 948 base pairs corresponded to C. thermocellum ldh gene encoding for the predicted 315-residue protein. The ldh gene was successfully expressed in E. coli FMJ39 (ldh mutant) under the lac promoter. The recombinant enzyme was partially purified from E. ...
Immobilization of glucose oxidase in conducting graft copolymers and determination of glucose amount in orange juices with enzyme electrodes
Yildiz, HB; Kiralp, S; Toppare, Levent Kamil; Yagci, Y (Elsevier BV, 2005-12-15)
Glucose oxidase was immobilized in conducting copolymers of three different types of poly(methyl methacrylate-co-thienyl methacrylate). Immobilization of enzyme was carried out by the entrapment in conducting polymers during electrochemical polymerization of pyrrole on the copolymer electrodes. Maximum reaction rate, Michaelis-Menten constants, temperature, pH and operational stabilities were determined for immobilized enzyme. The amount of glucose in orange juices of Turkey was investigated by using enzyme...
Phanerochaete chrysosporium soluble proteome as a prelude for the analysis of heavy metal stress response
Ozcan, Servet; Yildirim, Volkan; Kaya, Levent; Albrecht, Dirk; Becher, Doerte; Hecker, Michael; Özcengiz, Gülay (Wiley, 2007-04-01)
A 2-D reference map in pI range 3-10 was constructed for the soluble protein fraction of Phancrochaete chrysosporium growing vegetatively under standard conditions. Functional annotation could be made for 517 spots out of 720 that were subjected to MALDI-TOF-MS analysis, according to the specific accession numbers from the P. chrysosporium genomic database. Further analysis of the data revealed 314 distinct ORFs, 118 of which yielded multiple spots on the master gel. Functional classification of the protein...
Development of an easy-to-use colorimetric pH label with starch and carrot anthocyanins for milk shelf life assessment
Goodarzi, Mohsen Moazami; Moradi, Mehran; Tajik, Hossein; Forough, Mehrdad; Ezati, Parya; Kuswandi, Bambang (Elsevier BV, 2020-06-15)
An intelligent freshness indicator was developed by immobilizing anthocyanins of black carrot (ABC) within the starch matrix (total anthocyanins content of 10 mg/100 mL) to monitor freshness/spoilage of milk. The microstructural, spectral, swelling and solubility properties as well as color stability (as a function of time, temperature and light) of the indicator at different pHs were characterized. The incorporation of ABC did not change the swelling index and water solubility. The prepared label showed vi...
