Cloning, Expression, and Characterization of Bacillus sp. snu-7 Inulin Fructotransferase

A gene encoding inulin fructotransferase (di-D-fructofuranose 1,2':2,3' dianhydride [DFA Ⅲ]-producing IFTase, EC 4.2.2.18) from Bacillus sp. snu-7 was cloned. This gene was composed of a single, 1,353-bp open reading frame encoding a protein composed of a 40-amino acid signal peptide and a...

Zusammenfassung:A gene encoding inulin fructotransferase (di-D-fructofuranose 1,2':2,3' dianhydride [DFA Ⅲ]-producing IFTase, EC 4.2.2.18) from Bacillus sp. snu-7 was cloned. This gene was composed of a single, 1,353-bp open reading frame encoding a protein composed of a 40-amino acid signal peptide and a 410-amino acid mature protein. The deduced amino acid sequence was 98% identical to Arthrobacter globiformis C11-1 IFTase (DFA Ⅲ-producing). The enzyme was successfully expressed in E. coli as a functionally active, His-tagged protein, and it was purified in a single step using immobilized metal affinity chromatography.
