Description
This part conteins gvpA protein's coding sequence. This gene from Planktothrix rubescens can be succesfully expressed in E. coli. The gvpA's expression have been examined by another part " J23106+B0034+gvpA+B0015". (Since it was ligated on cloning vector pSB4A5, we didn't register this part. The gvpA protein conteins a typical domain of the superfamily 'Gas vesicle'(NCBI CDD cl02594). This gene is quiet conserved in most gvp's polycistron. According to Anthony E. Walsby's research, gas vesicles have a similar morphology. GvpA protein is a kind of small hydrophobic protein which forms the ribs of the main structure. 'All cyanobacterial gas vesicles so far analyzed contain a protein (GvpA) of about 7.4 kDa that forms the main mass of the structure and must be responsible for many of its properties.'
