Abstract
A sucrose-inducible promoter system (P(sacB)) from Bacillus megaterium was identified using a secretome approach. It was successfully employed for the extracellular production of the homologous levansucrase SacB (4252.4 U l(-1)) and the heterologous green fluorescent protein GFP (7.9 mg g(CDW)(-1)). Mutational analysis of B. megaterium P(sacB) allowed the identification of important promoter elements. The sucrose-inducible promoter provides a useful alternative to the established xylose-inducible promoter system (P(xylA)) for recombinant gene expression in B. megaterium.Entities:
