Abstract: For a completely regular space X and a non-vanishing self-adjoint closed subalgebra H of CB(X) which separates points from closed sets in X we construct the Gelfand spectrum mathfraksp(H) of H as an open subspace of the compactification of X generated by H. The simple construction of mathfraksp(H) enables easier examination of its properties. We illustrate this by an example showing that the space mathfraksp(H) is separable metrizable if and only if H is countably generated.
