Nucleotide sequence of the Clostridium thermocellum laminarinase gene.
The sequence presented (1022 bp) shows the Clostridium thermocellum laminarinase gene (lam1) and its flanking regions. The gene lam1 comprises an open reading frame of 726 nt, encoding a 242-aa protein with predicted Mr 27661. The ORF startswith the translation initiation codon ATG. This ATG codon is preceded at a spacing of 7 bp by a potential ribosome binding site (GGAGGT). A putative signal peptide was identified (the potential cleavage site is between position 27-28 aa). The comparison of the primary protein sequence with other beta-1, 3-1, 4-glucanases showed extensive homology for Bacillus amyloliqefaciens and Bacillus subtilis glucanases (identity-46.7%; similarity-57.0%).
