Abstract
The gene encoding the periplasmic beta-N-acetylglucosaminidase (GlcNAc ase B) from a marine Alteromonas sp, strain, O-7, was cloned and seque nced. The protein sequence of GlcNAcase B revealed a highly significan t homology with Vibrio GlcNAcase and alpha- and beta-chains of human b eta-hexosaminidase.
