The RIB1 gene encoding the enzyme of the first stage of the yeast Pichia guillermondii-GTP-cyclohydrolase- was cloned on pFL38 shuttle vector as the Sau3A fragment of chromosomal DNA of about 9 kb. EcoRI fragment of 4 kb with RIB1 gene was subcloned from the pFRI hybrid plasmid obtained into the pUC18 plasmid and then shortened to give 2.9 kb via deletion in SalGI site. The plasmid constructed was designated pR1. Activity of GTP-cyclohydrolase was 80-100-fold higher in extracts of transformants than in the prototroph strain, which evidence of effective expression of the yeast gene within recombinant plasmids in the cells of this species of bacteria. The enzyme isolated from transformants has molecular mass 179 kDa, is inhibited by PAD and adenyl-nucleotides, which is characteristic of GTP-cyclohydrolase of P. guilliermondii but not of Escherichia coli.

D004926 Escherichia coli A species of gram-negative, facultatively anaerobic, rod-shaped bacteria (GRAM-NEGATIVE FACULTATIVELY ANAEROBIC RODS) commonly found in the lower part of the intestine of warm-blooded animals. It is usually nonpathogenic, but some strains are known to produce DIARRHEA and pyogenic infections. Pathogenic strains (virotypes) are classified by their specific pathogenic mechanisms such as toxins (ENTEROTOXIGENIC ESCHERICHIA COLI), etc. Alkalescens-Dispar Group,Bacillus coli,Bacterium coli,Bacterium coli commune,Diffusely Adherent Escherichia coli,E coli,EAggEC,Enteroaggregative Escherichia coli,Enterococcus coli,Diffusely Adherent E. coli,Enteroaggregative E. coli,Enteroinvasive E. coli,Enteroinvasive Escherichia coli
