Two gene clusters have been isolated from an Brevibacterium sp HCU that encode the enzymes expected to convert cyclohexanol to adipic acid. Individual open reading frames (ORF's) on each gene cluster are useful for the production of intermediates in the adipic acid biosynthetic pathway or of related molecules. All the ORF's have been sequenced. Identification of gene function has been made on the basis of sequence comparison and biochemical analysis.
从一种布雷维杆菌(Brevibacterium sp HCU)中分离出了两个
基因簇,它们编码将
环己醇转化为
己二酸的酶。每个
基因簇上的单个开放阅读框(ORF)可用于生产
己二酸生物合成途径中的中间产物或相关分子。所有 ORF 均已测序。根据序列比较和生化分析对
基因功能进行了鉴定。
