title: Nucleotide sequence of the 5' region of the Bacillus licheniformis alpha-amylase gene: comparison with the B. amyloliquefaciens gene.
abstract: The DNA sequence of the 5' region of the Bacillus licheniformis alpha-amylase gene is reported. Comparison of the inferred amino acid sequence of the B. licheniformis alpha-amylase gene with that of the Bacillus amyloliquefaciens gene shows that whereas the amino acid sequences of the mature proteins have considerable homology, the sequences for the signal peptides are distinct.
