Glucose hexokinase (GHK) from Gluconacetobacter xylinus

Glucose hexokinase (GHK) was originated from Gluconacetobacter xylinus CGMCC 2955. Using glucose, this enzyme catalyzes the formation of glucose-6-phosphate, which is the glycolytic intermediate and the origin of substrate synthesis for Bacterial cellulose production.

Before we clone this gene,the software SnapGene viewer was used to analyze the sequence of GHK, its feature is showed as follows:

Glucose hexokinase (GHK) was amplified using PCR method, and inserted into the vector pSB1C3. The result was identified in figure 1.
