Abstract

The nucleotide sequence of a 6940 bp DNA fragment from Desulfovibrio gigas, containing seven ORFs was determined. ORF-1 encodes a probable lipoprotein having high similarities with lytic transglycosylases. ORF-2 encodes a polypeptide that does not show homologies with proteins deposited in the database, but it contains the consensus pattern of class II aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases. The putative protein encoded by ORF-3 possesses high similarities with universal stress response proteins from the UspA family. Northern blot analysis of ORF-3 shows that it is constitutively and abundantly expressed. ORF-4 encodes a probable helix-turn-helix-containing DNA-binding protein, given the presence of the helix-turn-helix motif, characteristic of this class of proteins. Its N-terminal region has high identity with its counterparts from proteins belonging to the RRF2 family. Northern blot analysis shows that ORF-4 is transcribed as a single mRNA in contrast to its orthologue from Desulfovibrio vulgaris. ORF-5 encodes a putative fusion protein as its N- and C-termini show significant homologies with molybdenum formylmethanofuran dehydrogenase and molybdopterin biosynthesis proteins, respectively. ORF-7 encodes a prokaryotic lipoprotein having homologies with multidrug efflux and DNA damage-inducible proteins, and it is constitutively and abundantly expressed.

一个6940 bp的DNA片段包含脂蛋白、通用应激反应和转录调节蛋白同源物的编码基因
测定了含7个orf的巨型Desulfovibrio gigas DNA片段6940bp的核苷酸序列。ORF-1编码一种可能的脂蛋白,与裂解转糖基化酶高度相似。ORF-2编码的多肽与数据库中沉积的蛋白质没有同源性,但它包含II类氨基酰基- trna合成酶的一致模式。ORF-3编码的蛋白与来自UspA家族的通用应激反应蛋白具有高度的相似性。Northern blot分析显示ORF-3是组成型的、丰富表达的。ORF-4编码一种可能含有螺旋-转-螺旋的dna结合蛋白,考虑到这类蛋白的特征——螺旋-转-螺旋基序的存在。它的n端区域与RRF2家族的对应蛋白具有高度的同源性。Northern blot分析显示,ORF-4与来自Desulfovibrio vulgaris的同源物相比,转录为单个mRNA。ORF-5编码一种推定的融合蛋白,因为其N端和c端分别与钼甲酰基甲烷呋喃脱氢酶和钼钼苷生物合成蛋白具有显著的同源性。ORF-7编码一种与多药外排和DNA损伤诱导蛋白具有同源性的原核脂蛋白,其组成性和丰度表达。
