Cloning and base sequence determination of novel iturin biosynthesis gene from antagonistic microorganism Bacillus subtilis and characteristics of the gene

Abstract

The present invention relates to novel iturin biosynthesis genes, and uses thereof. More specifically, the present invention provides novel iturin biosynthesis genes, wherein the iturin biosynthesis genes were cloned from Bacillus subtilis subsp. krictiensis ATCC 55079, the base sequence was determined after checking whether the cloned genes are iturin biosynthesis genes or not, and it was ascertained that the identified genes are novel genes different from the reported gene by comparing the base sequences with that of the reported gene, and uses thereof.

Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
