The exo-β-1,3-glucanase structural gene (WsEXG1 gene, accession number: FJ875997.2) was isolated from both the genomic DNA and cDNA of the marine yeast Williopsis saturnus WC91-2 by inverse PCR and RT-PCR. An open reading frame of 1,254 bp encoding a 417 amino acid protein (isoelectric point: 4.5) with calculated molecular weight of 46.2 kDa was characterized. The promoter of the gene (intronless)...
The marine-derived Williopsis saturnus WC91-2 was found to produce very high killer toxin activity against the pathogenic yeast Metschnikowia bicuspidata WCY isolated from the diseased crab. It is interesting to observe that the purified β-1,3-glucanase from W. saturnus WC91-2 had no killer toxin activity but could inhibit activity of the WC91-2 toxin produced by the same yeast. In contrast, the WC91-2...
