title: Nucleotide sequence of the pectate lyase gene from alkali-tolerant Bacillus sp. YA-14.
abstract: The nucleotide sequence of the pectate lyase gene (pe lK) from alkali-tolerant Bacillus sp. was identified and analyzed. A 1,260-base pair open reading frame for the pe lK gene was observed and encoded for a protein of 420 amino acids. The signal peptide was composed of 21 amino acid residues. In the deduced primary structure of this enzyme, the three conserved regions of several pectate lyases were found and showed high homologies.
