Abstract excerpt
A gene encoding catalase (hydrogen-peroxide:hydrogen-peroxide oxidoreductase; EC 1.11.1.6) from Campylobacter jejuni was cloned by functional complementation of a catalase-deficient mutant of Escherichia coli. The catalase structural gene, designated katA, was assigned by subcloning and its nucleotide sequence determined. The deduced protein product of 508 amino acids, which had a calculated molecular mass of...
