ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:
To construct a promoter probe vector, pBE-bgaB, to screen strong promoters from Bacillus amyloliquefaciens.RESULTS:
266 colonies containing active promoter elements from the genomic DNA of B. amyloliquefaciens were identified. Among these, promoter P41 exhibited the strongest ß-Gal activity in Escherichia coli and B. amyloliquefaciens. Sequence analysis showed that promoter P41 contained P ykuN , a ykuN gene encoding flavodoxin. Optimization of the ribosome-binding site from P41 to P382 improved ß-Gal activity by ~ 200%.CONCLUSION:
A new strong promoter for protein expression and genetic engineering of Bacillus species.Palabras clave
