  • Title: Cloning and expression in Escherichia coli of the form II ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase gene from Rhodopseudomonas sphaeroides.
    Author: Quivey RG, Tabita FR.
    Journal: Gene; 1984 Nov; 31(1-3):91-101. PubMed ID: 6396166.
    Abstract:
    The gene encoding the form II ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase (RuBPC/O) from Rhodopseudomonas (R.) sphaeroides has been identified on a 3-kb EcoRI fragment and cloned into a broad-host-range, high-copy-number plasmid, using the gene from Rhodospirillum (Rs.) rubrum as a hybridization probe. Subclones of the gene from R. sphaeroides in pBR322 and pUC8 show substantial levels of expression and enzymatic activity in whole cells and crude cell extracts of Escherichia coli. This enzymatic activity has been shown to be similar in many respects to that of the protein purified from R. sphaeroides.
