Structure analysis of the endoxylanase A gene from Penicillium purpurogenum

Penicillium purpurogenum produces several endoxylanases, two of which (XynA and XynB) have been purified and characterized. XynB has been sequenced, and it belongs to glycosyl hydrolase family 11. In this publication we report the structure of the xynA gene. The amino terminal sequence of the protei...
