Cloning of the Xylose Reductase Gene form Sour- Dough Yeast Candida milleri

초록

영어

The entire nucleotide sequence of the xylose reductase (XR) gene in sourdough yeast Candida milleri CBS8195 was determined by degenerate polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and genome walking. Sequence analysis revealed an open-reading frame of 981 bp, encoding of 326 amino acids with a predicted molecular mass of 82 kDa. The derived amino acid sequence of C. milleriXR was 64.7% homologous to that of Kluyveromyces lactis. The cloned XR gene was expressed in a Δgre3 mutant of Saccharomyces cerevisiae and the recombinant strain was able to utilize xylose to produce 3.8 g/L of xylitol from 20 g/L xylose. An enzyme activity assay and semiquantitative reverse transcription PCR revealed that the expression of the CmXR is induced by xylose and repressed by glucose. The GenBank Accession No. for CmXR is KC599203.
