Sequencing and Expression of the Gene Encoding the Clostridium stercorarium β-Xylosidase Xy143B in Escherichia coli.

Describes the sequence of the Clostridium stercorarium xyl43B gene encoding β-xylosidase of family 43 of glycoside hydrolases, and purification and characterization of Xyl43B produced by a recombinant Escherichia coli. Polymeric constituents of plant cell walls; Action of clostridium stercorarium; Comparison of restriction maps of the inserted DNA fragments of the recombinant plasmids with those deduced from DNA sequences of the C. stercorarium β-xylosidase genes.
