Abstract 


The promoter and the amino-terminal region of phoA, the structural gene for alkaline phosphatase of Escherichia coli K12, was cloned by using a promoter cloning vector pMC1403. The nucleotide sequence of the cloned fragment has been determined. A sequence encoding the amino-terminal portion of mature alkaline phosphatase is found and it is preceded by a sequence encoding the signal peptide. The signal peptide consists of 21 amino acids; Met-Lys-Gln-Ser-Thr-Ile-Ala-Leu-Ala-Leu-Leu-Pro-Leu-Leu-Phe-Thr-Pro-Val-Thr-Lys-Ala. The translation initiation codon is GUG, which is preceded by the Shine-Dalgarno sequence GGAG. Upstream to these sequences, there is a typical procaryotic promoter. TATAGTC for the Pribnow box. Around the Pribnow box, there are several dyad symmetrical sequences, which may probably be concerned with the regulation of this gene.

The nucleotide sequence of the promoter and the amino-terminal region of alkaline phosphatase structural gene (phoA) of Escherichia coli.

Abstract

The promoter and the amino-terminal region of phoA, the structural gene for alkaline phosphatase of Escherichia coli K12, was cloned by using a promoter cloning vector pMC1403. The nucleotide sequence of the cloned fragment has been determined. A sequence encoding the amino-terminal portion of mature alkaline phosphatase is found and it is preceded by a sequence encoding the signal peptide. The signal peptide consists of 21 amino acids; Met-Lys-Gln-Ser-Thr-Ile-Ala-Leu-Ala-Leu-Leu-Pro-Leu-Leu-Phe-Thr-Pro-Val-Thr-Lys-Ala. The translation initiation codon is GUG, which is preceded by the Shine-Dalgarno sequence GGAG. Upstream to these sequences, there is a typical procaryotic promoter. TATAGTC for the Pribnow box. Around the Pribnow box, there are several dyad symmetrical sequences, which may probably be concerned with the regulation of this gene.
