✦ Synopsis


The KlPCK1 gene encoding phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK; ATP-dependent) was cloned from the Kluyveromyces lactis genome using a PCR amplicon from Saccharomyces cerevisiae PCK1 gene as a probe. A DNA fragment of about 4β€’8 kb containing KlPCK1 complemented PEPCK activity of the mutant of S. cerevisiae defective in PEPCK. The KlPCK1 gene has an open reading frame of 1629 bp (543 amino acids). The KlPCK1 nucleotide sequence and deduced amino acid sequence showed 76% and 84% homologies to those of S. cerevisiae PCK1, respectively. Multiple alignment of ATP-dependent PEPCK genes shows highly conserved regions. The nucleotide sequence of KlPCK1 has been submitted to the DDBJ/GenBank/EMBL data bank with Accession Number U88575.
