The gene coding for creatinase (creatine amidinohydrolase, EC 3.5.3.3) was isolated from Flavobacterium sp. U-188. The primary structure of creatinase deduced from the nucleotide sequence showed a protein (molecular weight, 42, 651) composed of 378 amino acids. The creatinase gene was over-expressed in Escherichia coli under the control of the lac promoter and the amount of this enzyme was over 20% of the soluble protein in the cell.
编码肌酸酶(肌酸脒基水解酶,EC 3.5.3.3)的基因是从黄杆菌属菌株U - 188中分离得到的。根据核苷酸序列推导的肌酸酶一级结构显示该蛋白(分子量为42,651)由378个氨基酸组成。肌酸酶基因在乳糖启动子的控制下于大肠杆菌中过量表达,该酶的量超过细胞中可溶性蛋白的20%。
