title: Nucleotide and derived amino acid sequence of the subtilisin from the antarctic psychrotroph Bacillus TA39.
abstract: The nucleotide sequence of the subtilisin-encoding gene from the antarctic psychrotroph Bacillus TA39 was determined. The primary structure of the subtilisin precursor is composed of 420 amino acids giving rise to a mature enzyme of 309 amino acids. Asp-145, His-185 and Ser-361 are the proposed catalytic residues of the active site.
