DNA encoding protein with pyranose oxidase activity at neutral pH

摘要

Novel DNA mol. (I), encoding a protein (A) having the enzymatic activity of pyranose oxidase, is chosen from the following: (a) a DNA mol. encoding pyranose oxidase of 623 amino acid residues; (b) a DNA mol. with a 1869 bp nucleotide sequence; (c) DNA mols. with a degenerate genetic code sequence compared with (a) or (b); and (d) DNA mols. capable of hybridising with (a), (b) or (c). Also claimed are: (1) a vector comprising (I); (2) host cells contg. the vector as in (1); and (3) (A) encoded by (I).
