 DNA encoding histidyl tRNA synthetase variant from Streptococcus pneumoniae

Details
Inventors: Gentry, Daniel Robert; Greenwood, Rebecca Claire; Lawlor, Elizabeth Jane;
Assignee: SmithKline Beecham Corporation (Philadelphia, PA)
Primary Examiner: Prouty; Rebecca E.
Assistant Examiner: Hobbs; Lisa J.
Attorney, Agent or Firm: Gimmi; Edward R., King; William T., Lentz; Edward T.

The invention provides hisS polypeptides and DNA (RNA) encoding hisS polypeptides and methods for producing such polypeptides by recombinant techniques. Also provided are methods for utilizing hisS polypeptides to screen for antibacterial compounds.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION What is claimed is: 1.
An isolated polynucleotide comprising a polynucleotide sequence selected from the group consisting of: (a) a polynucleotide having at least a 95% identity to a polynucleotide encoding a polypeptide comprising the amino acid sequence of the reference sequence of SEQ ID NO:2; (b) a polynucleotide having at least a 97% identity to a polynucleotide encoding a polypeptide comprising the amino acid sequence of the reference sequence of SEQ ID NO:2; (c) a polynucleotide encoding a polypeptide comprising the amino acid sequence of the reference sequence of SEQ ID NO:2; (d) a polynucleotide hybridizing under stringent conditions to a polynucleotide encoding a polypeptide comprising the amino acid sequence of the reference sequence of SEQ ID NO:2; (e) a polynucleotide having at least a 95% identity to a polynucleotide encoding the same mature polypeptide expressed by the histidyl tRNA synthetase gene contained in NCIMB Deposit No.
40771; (f) a polynucleotide having at least a 97% identity to a polynucleotide encoding the same mature polypeptide expressed by the histidyl tRNA synthetase gene contained in NCIMB Deposit No.
40771; (g) a polynucleotide encoding the same mature polypeptide expressed by the histidyl tRNA synthetase gene contained in NCIMB Deposit No.
40771; (h) a polynucleotide which is complementary to the polynucleotide of (a), (b), (c), (d), (e), (f) or (g).
2.
The isolated polynucleotide of claim 1 wherein said polynucleotide is a polynucleotide having at least a 95% identity to a polynucleotide encoding a polypeptide comprising the amino acid sequence of the reference sequence of SEQ ID NO:2.
3.
The isolated polynucleotide of claim 1 wherein said polynucleotide is a polynucleotide having at least a 97% identity to a polynucleotide encoding a polypeptide comprising the amino acid sequence of the reference sequence of SEQ ID NO:2.
4.
The isolated polynucleotide of claim 1 wherein said polynucleotide is a polynucleotide encoding a polypeptide comprising the amino acid sequence of the reference sequence of SEQ ID NO:2
