The nucleotide sequence of the uricase gene from the thermophilic bacterium Bacillus sp. TB-90 was determined. The primary structure of the uricase deduced from the nucleotide sequence comprised 332 amino acids, with a total molecular mass of 37,994 Da. The molecular mass of the subunit of the uricase produced by the transformant of Escherichia coli agreed well with this value. However, the molecular mass of a subunit of the uricase produced by Bacillus sp. TB-90 was found to be 34,000 Da by SDS-PAGE. The difference between these molecular masses was attributed to processing of the C-terminal 13 amino acid residue in Bacillus sp. TB-90. Comparison of the enzymatic properties of both uricases showed that the thermostability of the uricase produced by the transformant was enhanced by about 10 degrees C in comparison to that produced by Bacillus sp. TB-90.

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
