The Pediococcus pentosaceus glutamate racemase gene product complemented the D-glutamate auxotrophy of Escherichia coli WM335. Amino acid sequence analysis of the two proteins revealed 28% identity, primarily in six clusters scattered throughout the sequence. Further analyses indicated secondary structure similarities between the two proteins. These data support a recent report that the dga (murI) gene product is a glutamate racemase.
戊糖片球菌谷氨酸消旋酶基因产物补充了大肠杆菌WM335的D-谷氨酸营养缺陷型。对这两种蛋白质的氨基酸序列分析显示有28%的同一性,主要集中在整个序列中分散的六个簇中。进一步分析表明这两种蛋白质之间存在二级结构相似性。这些数据支持了最近一份关于dga(murI)基因产物是一种谷氨酸消旋酶的报告。
