The penicillin amidase of Arthrobacter viscosus (ATCC 15294)

Gene. 1994 May 27;143(1):79-83. doi: 10.1016/0378-1119(94)90608-4.

Abstract

The nucleotide (nt) sequence of the gene encoding penicillin G amidase (PA) of Arthrobacter viscosus strain ATCC 15,294 was determined. The sequence contained an open reading frame of 2406 nt with a G+C content of 37%. The deduced amino-acid sequence shows significant homology with other so far identified beta-lactam amidases of Gram- bacteria.
