摘要
The product of the MTCY428.08 gene of Mycobacterium tuberculosis shows sequence homology with several NAD(+) synthetases. The MTCY428.08 gene was cloned into the expression vectors pGEX-4T-1 and pET-15b. Expression in Escherichia coli led to overproduction of glutathione S-transferase fused and His(6)-tagged gene products, which were enzymatically assayed for NAD synthetase activity. Our results demonstrate that the MTCP428.08 gene of M. tuberculosis is the structural gene for NAD(+) synthetase.
