Molecular and enzymatic studies of cyclodextrin glucanotransferase gene from Bacillus sp. TS1-1

The 16s rRNA gene sequence from Bacillus sp. TS1-1 exhibited the closest match with Bacillus sp. NER (99%) and was identified as Bacillus sp. A cyclodextrin glucanotransferase (CGTase) gene of Bacillus sp. TS1-1 was isolated and cloned into Escherichia coli. Beginning from the TTG codon, there was a...
