Cloning and Expression in Escherichia coli of the Polysaccharide Depolymerase Associated with Bacteriophage-Infected Erwinia amylovora

AUTOR(ES)
RESUMO

The bacteriophage-encoded polysaccharide depolymerase produced in Erwinia amylovora has been cloned and expressed in Escherichia coli. The bacteriophage ERA103 genome was observed to consist of five EcoRI fragments, labeled as follows: A, 7.5 kilobases (kb); B, 5.0 kb; C, 2.7 kb; D, 2.1 kb; and E, 1.8 kb. A restriction map for ERA103 was also prepared. Each of the fragments were cloned into the positive-selection vector pOP203(A2+) and pBR322.
