Abstract
The invention relates to a DNA fragment of sequence S.sub.1 as described in the application and encoding the S.sub.2 peptide sequence as described in the application. This DNA sequence carries the gene encoding the enzyme for fragmenting N-acetylheparosan and the adjacent sequences permitting its expression. The invention also relates to an enzyme intended for fragmenting N-acetylheparosan derived from this gene and the processes for fragmenting high molecular mass N-acetylheparosan using this enzyme.
