Plasmid vectors pC27-glc and pC29-glc allowing expression of the gene for beta -1,3-glucanase (glc) in plant cells were constructed. The gene glc was first cloned from the anaerobic thermophilous bacterium C. thermocellum. To increase the efficiency of expression, the N-terminal fragment of the gene encoding the bacterial transit peptide was deleted and hybrid variants of lacZ-glc were obtained.
