Cloned(Commentary)

EC Number Cloned (Comment) Organism
3.1.1.4 Phenotypes (megacin production and effect of UV irradiation) of the primary clone carrying the recombinant plasmid pMGC1 are similar to those observed with the parental Bacillus megaterium 216 strain. The Bacillus megaterium clone (pMGC3) carrying the 5494-bp HindIII subfragment of the original 10 kb insert exhibits a wider inhibitory zone around noninduced colonies. Priestia megaterium

 gel filtration, native molecular mass is consistent with an alpha2beta2, alpha beta gamma or gamma2 composition. The largest protein (gamma chain) is the full-length product of ORF293A, whereas the shorter alpha and beta chains appear to be products of proteolytic cleavage between Gln-185 and Val-186 of the gamma chain.

3.1.1.4 More Purified biologically active megacin A-216 preparations contain three proteins. The largest protein is the full-length translation product of the megA gene, whereas the two shorter proteins are fragments of the long protein created by cleavage between Gln-185 and Val-186.
