The gene encoding an extracellular isomalto-dextranase, designated imd, was isolated from the chromosomal DNA of Arthrobacter globiformis T6 and cloned and expressed in Escherichia coli. A single open reading frame consisting of 1,926 base pairs that encoded a polypeptide composed of a signal peptide of 39 amino acids and a mature protein of 602 amino acids (M(r), 65,900) was found. The primary structure had no significant homology with the structures of any other reported carbohydrases, includi ...[more]
