Glycosyltransferase gene gtfC from Amycolatopsis orientalis

摘要

The invention provides isolated nucleic acid compounds encoding the glycosyltransferase protein GtfC of Amycolatopsis orientalis. Also provided are vectors carrying the gtfC gene, transformed heterologous host cells for expressing the GtfC protein, and methods for producing glycopeptide compounds using the cloned gtfC gene.
