In this study, a gene coding for thermophilic serine protease of the ClpP class from the thermoacidophilic archaeon Thermoplasma volcanium (Tpv) was cloned and expressed in Escherichia coli. The primary sequence and domain analysis of this enzyme showed similarities (50-60% similarity) to signal peptide peptidases (SppA) of bacteria and other archaea. An increase of about tenfold in the activity was achieved by overexpression of Tpv SppA in E. coli, as detected by enzyme assays conducted using… Expand
