Abstract
The present invention provides a recombinant DNA comprised of a vector DNA and a DNA fragment containing a gene coding for .gamma.-glutamyl transpeptidase derived from Bacillus subtilis. The invention also provides a process for producing .gamma.-glutamyl transpeptidase, which comprises culturing in a culture medium a microorganism belonging to the genus Bacillus which is carrying recombinant DNA comprised of a vector DNA and DNA fragment which contains a gene coding for .gamma.-glutamyl transpeptidase derived from the genus Bacillus, accumulating .gamma.-glutamyl transpeptidase in the culture, and recovering .gamma.-glutamyl transpeptidase therefrom.
