摘要：

Poly-gamma-glutamate (PGA) is a most promising biodegradable polymer. In extracellular mucilage-producing Bacillus subtilis, the pgsBCA genes encode the membrane-associated PGA synthetase complex. It was recently speculated that PGA synthetase consists of both the intact 44 kDa and the in-phase overlapping 33 kDa-ywsC (corresponding to pgsB) gene products. This review covers current research into B. subtilis PGA synthetase and discusses the structural and functional features of the enzyme. (C) 2003 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
