Nucleotide sequence of the phosphofructokinase gene from Bacillus stearothermophilus and comparison with the homologous Escherichia coli gene.

The gene (Bs-pfk) for phosphofructokinase ( PFK) from Bacillus stearothermophilus has been cloned and sequenced. The deduced amino acid sequence is nearly identical to the sequence which was previously determined by peptide analysis. The elevated G + C content of Bs-pfk relative to the homologous Ec-pfkA from Escherichia coli is consistent with previous observations concerning genes from thermophilic prokaryotes. A significant degree of homology exists when the deduced amino acid sequence of B. stearothermophilus PFK is compared with the corrected sequences of rabbit muscle PFK or E. coli PFK-1. The cloning and sequencing of Bs-pfk completes the first step toward using site-specific mutagenesis to investigate the structure-function relationships for this allosteric enzyme.[1]
