| Abstract |
The nucleotide sequence of the gene encoding the glycolytic enzyme phosphoglucose isomerase (PGI) from Escherichia coli is presented. The gene encodes a polypeptide of 549 amino acids. The transcriptional start point of the gene was determined and found to lie within a consensus promoter region. The amino acid sequence derived from the E. coli PGI gene can be aligned without insertions or deletions to the predicted amino acid sequence of a nuclear-encoded chloroplast isozyme of PGI from a higher plant, and the two sequences have a similarity of 87.6%. The amino acid sequence similarity between E. coli and that predicted from cDNA sequences for mouse and pig PGI is approximately 65%. |
