Abstract:
An isolated DNA molecule comprising a DNA sequence encoding a protein having the enzymatic activity of an amylosucrase, wherein said DNA sequence is selected from the group consisting of(a) a DNA sequence coding for a protein having Seq ID No 2;(b) the coding region of Seq ID No. 1,(c) a DNA sequence in the DNA insert of plasmid pNB2 from Neisseria bacteria having deposit number Deutsche Sammlung von Mikroorganismen (DSM) No. 9196;(d) a DNA sequence coding for a protein encoded by the DNA insert of plasmid pNB2 from Neisseria bacteria having deposit number Deutsche Sammlung von Mikroorganismen No. 9196;(e) a DNA sequence which is degenerate due to the genetic code in comparison to the sequences of (b), (c), or (d);(f) a part of any one of the DNA sequences of (a)-(e) coding for a protein having the enzymatic activity of an amylosucrase; and(g) a full length complement of the DNA sequence of any one of (a)-(f).
