Abstract
A 5.1-kbp genomic DNA fragment was cloned from trehalose-producing bacterium Arthrobacter sp. strain Q36. Sequence analysis of the DNA fragment revealed two open reading frames of 2325 and 1794 bp, encoding maltooligosyltrehalose synthase (TreY) and maltooligosyltrehalose trehalohydrolase (TreZ), respectively. The 3' end of treY overlaps with the 5' end of treZ by one nucleotide, and it is suggested that treYZ constitutes and operon. The deduced amino acid sequences of both enzymes have several regions common to amylolytic enzymes belonging to an 'alpha-amylase family'.Entities:
