    Abstract:
    Plasmids pCB20 and pCB22 were used for cloning and expression of the Bac brevis 7882 neutral protease gene in Bac. subtilis cells. The protease-containing fragments of 13 and 14 kb were cloned in pCB20 plasmid based on replication region of Streptococci plasmid pSM19035. Expression of the gene was shown to take place in Bac. subtilis. Application of vegetative promoters of the previously identified expression unit EU19035 greatly increases the expression of the protease in Bac. subtilis. Bac. subtilis cells, expressing the gene of Bac. brevis neutral protease, do not sporulate, are considerably larger than the cells which do not contain the gene and form multicellular structures.
