Abstract excerpt
A methylotrophic yeast, Candida boidinii, exhibits D-amino acid oxidase activity (DAO, EC 1.4.3.3) during its growth on D-alanine as a sole carbon or a nitrogen source. The structural gene (DAO1), encoding DAO, was cloned from a genomic library of C. boidinii. The 1035-bp gene encoded 345 amino acids and the predicted amino acid sequence showed significant similarity to those of DAOs from other organisms. The...
