Characterization of α-galactosidase belonging to family-4 glycoside hidrolases Bacillus halodurans
... The α-galactosidase MelA (BH2228) gene of Bacillus halodurans was cloned and expressed in Escherichia coli. The melA gene consists of 1305 nucleotides encoding a protein of 434 amino acids with a predicted molecular weight of 49,761. It was assigned to family 4 of glycoside hidrolases. Almost all of ...
