Structure Function Analysis for Aminoglycoside 3 Phosphotransferase II APH 3 II

1992-02-01
Mutant strains containing APH(3')-II were constructed via site-directed mutagenesis of the cloned gene and by random mutagenesis of a strain containing the APH(3')-II gene on a conjugative plasmid. Substitutions at highly conserved amino acid residues produced APH(3') enzymes which in general showed reduced activity and conferred reduced levels of resistance to their substrates. Substitutions at Tyr 218 altered substrate specificity for the enzymes. Random mutagenesis produced plasmid-borne mutations conferring amikacin resistance. Two of these mutations appeared to be localized to the APH(3')-II structural gene.

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. ...
Molecular cloning, characterization, and homologous expression of an endochitinase gene from Bacillus thuringiensis serovar morrisoni
Okay, Sezer; Özcengiz, Gülay (2011-01-01)
The endochitinase gene (chi3023) of Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) serovar morrisoni strain 3023 was amplified via polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and cloned in Escherichia coli. The ORF of chi3023 (GenBank Accession Number: DQ993175) consists of 2031 nucleotides encoding a 676-residue protein with a calculated molecular mass of 74.5 kDa and a pI value of 6.0. The amino acid sequence of Chi3023 was compared with previously sequenced Bt chitinases and the phylogenetic relationships among them were determined. T...
PCR cloning and heterologous expression of Scytalidium thermophilum laccase gene in Aspergillus sojae
Koçlar, Gülden; Ögel, Zümrüt Begüm; Department of Biotechnology (2005)
In this study, Scytalidium thermophilum laccase gene was first cloned into E. coli and then heterologously expressed in A. sojae. S. thermophilum is a thermophilic fungus with an important role in determining selectivity of compost produced for growing Agaricus bisporus. S. thermophilum laccase gene was first cloned by Novo Nordisk Bio Tech, Inc. in 1998. This laccase gene (lccS) has an open reading frame of 2092bp. It is composed of five exons punctuated by four small introns. The coding region, excluding ...
Molecular dynamics simulations and coupled nucleotide substitution experiments indicate the nature of A center dot A base pairing and a putative structure of the coralyne-induced homo-adenine duplex
Joung, In Suk; Persil Çetinkol, Özgül; HUD, Nicholas V.; Cheatham, Thomas E. (Oxford University Press (OUP), 2009-12-01)
Coralyne is an alkaloid drug that binds homo-adenine DNA (and RNA) oligonucleotides more tightly than it does Watson-Crick DNA. Hud's laboratory has shown that poly(dA) in the presence of coralyne forms an anti-parallel duplex, however attempts to determine the structure by NMR spectroscopy and X-ray crystallography have been unsuccessful. Assuming adenine-adenine hydrogen bonding between the two poly(dA) strands, we constructed 40 hypothetical homo-(dA) anti-parallel duplexes and docked coralyne into the s...
