Analysis of a Streptococcus pneumoniae gene encoding signal peptidase I and overproduction of the enzyme.

Gene - 31 Jul 1997

Zhang Y B, Greenberg B, Lacks S A

Abstract excerpt

The spi gene of Streptococcus pneumoniae was cloned and its nucleotide sequence was determined. It encodes a protein of 204 amino acids that is homologous to bacterial signal peptidase I proteins. The S. pneumoniae protein contains all of the conserved amino acid sequence motifs previously identified in this enzyme from both prokaryotic and eukaryotic sources. Sequence comparisons revealed several additional...
