Abstract excerpt
We have cloned and sequenced a gene (epr) encoding a novel serine protease from Bacillus subtilis. Several active forms of the enzyme with molecular masses between 40 and 34 kDa were found in the medium of B. subtilis cultures containing the epr gene cloned on a plasmid. Deletions at the 3' end of the gene, removing up to 240 amino acids of the reading frame, abolished the expression of the larger species but did...
