    The nucleotide sequence of the pldA gene of Escherichia coli K-12, which codes for detergent-resistant phospholipase A (DR-phospholipase A), located in the outer membrane, was determined and the amino acid sequence of DR-phospholipase A was deduced. DR-phospholipase A contains 269 amino acids, resulting in a protein with a molecular weight of 30,809. It does not contain any cysteine residues and seems to be synthesized first as a precursor with a typical signal peptide composed of 20 amino acids. The NH2-terminus of the mature protein is glutamine, a polar amino acid, while other outer membrane proteins so far determined have a nonpolar amino acid there. The hydropathy profile of the deduced amino acid sequence of DR-phospholipase A was studied. Most of the region was rather hydrophilic and there were no stretches of hydrophobic amino acids. Computer analysis showed that there are no homologies between DR-phospholipase A and other extracellular phospholipases whose amino acid sequences are known. The candidates for the promoter region of the pldA gene, the 5'-flanking region, have a significantly high AT content, while the AT content of the coding region is about the same as the average AT content of the E. coli chromosome. A typical rho-independent transcription termination site is also present at the 3'-flanking region. This is the first example of the primary structure of a membrane-bound phospholipase.
