Abstract

The genes encoding thermostable alpha- and beta-galactosidases from an extremely thermophilic bacterium, Thermus strain T2, were cloned in Escherichia coli. The alpha-galactosidase gene was located just downstream from the beta-galactosidase gene. The genes were introduced into Thermus thermophilus HB27 with the aid of Thermus cryptic plasmid pTT8, and beta-galactosidases were expressed constitutively.
