The Cyclodextrin Glycosyltransferase of Paenibacillus pabuli US132 Strain: Molecular Characterization and Overproduction of the Recombinant Enzyme

Figure 2

Comparison of the deduced amino acid sequence of US132 CGTase with those of related CGTases. The five domains found in CGTase proteins are indicated by letters A to E under the sequences. The four highly conserved regions are boxed and the catalytic residues are shaded. Arrows indicate the main amino acid residues of cyclization activity Lys47, Tyr89, Asn94, Phe183, Asn193, Leu194, Tyr195, Asp196, Phe259, Phe283, and Asp371. The numbering starts after the respective signal sequence, with identity (*), strongly similar (:), and weakly similar ( 𝑉 m a x ). PP132: CGTase of Paenibacillus pabuli US132 strain; BC8: CGTase of Bacillus circulans strain no. 8; Bli: CGTase of Bacillus licheniformis; BC251: CGTase of Bacillus circulans strain 251; Bsp1011: CGTase of Bacillus sp.1011.
