Popis: In order to exploit new genetic resources, Pectate lyase(PEL) gene was amplified by PCR using the genome DNA from an alkaline Bacillus subtilis521. The PCR product was inserted into pET22b(+) vector. The recombinant plasmids were cloned in E.coli DH5α and then expressed in E.coli BL21. When cultured in the optimized medium, the positive clones E.coli BL21(pET22b(+)pel)showed intracellular pectate lyase activity of 90.0 U/mL. It was indicated that we had obtained the correct PEL gene. The pel has an open reading frame of 1263 nucleotides and codes for a product of 420 amino acids with a calculated molecular mass of 45.5 kD. Based on computer assisted analysis, a signal peptides and two conserved domains were revealed. The sequence analysis for PEL showed that it shares 26-82% homology with other strains in GenBank. In addition, the advanced structure of PEL were also predicted and analysed. This study will help to the experimental design of PEL fermentation and production purification and enzyme evolution.
