TheglgPgene, which codes for glycogen phosphorylase, was cloned from a genomic library ofEscherichia coli. The nucleotide sequence of theglgPgene contained a single open reading frame encoding a protein consisting of 790 amino acid residues. The glgP gene product, a polypeptide ofMr87 000, was confirmed by SDS‐polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The deduced amino acid sequence showed that homology betweenglgPofE. coliand rabbitglgP, humanglgP, potatoglgP, andE. coli malPwas 48.6, 48.6, 42.3, and 46.1%, respectively. Within this homologous region, the active site, glycogen storage site, and pyridoxal‐5′‐phosphate binding site are well conserved. The enzyme activity of glycogen phosphorylase increased after introduction on a multicopy of theglgPgene.
