NEW HEAT-RESISTANT PROTEIN HAVING PHOSPHOENOLPYRUVATE SYNTHASE ACTIVITY

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a new heat-resistant protein having phosphoenolpyruvate synthase activity.

SOLUTION: The protein is prepared by cloning a gene supposed to encode a protein having phosphoenolpyruvate synthase activity from a gene sequence of Sulfolobus tokodaii sp.7 (JCM10545) which is a kind of aerobic thermoacidophilic crenarchaeon belonging to a hyperthermophilic archaebacterium and expressing the gene by using an E.coli.
