A system for the inducible secretion of proteins fromBacillus subtilisduring logarithmic growth

A. Edelman, Gwennaà l Joliff, André Klier, Georges Rapoport

Open publisher page 12 citations

Abstract

A Bacillus subtilis-Escherichia coli shuttle vector was constructed containing the B. subtilis levansucrase gene promoter and region encoding its signal sequence. A site for the restriction enzyme NaeI was included to facilitate precise translational fusions to the DNA encoding the levansucrase signal sequence. Fusions of TEM β-lactamase to this construct displayed sucrose-inducible expression and secretion of B. subtilis.
