Abstract excerpt
The argF gene encoding ornithine carbamoyl-transferase (OTCase; EC2.1.3.3) has been cloned from Corynebacterium glutamicum by transforming the Escherichia coli arginine auxotroph with the genomic DNA library. The cloned DNA also complements the E. coli argG mutant, suggesting a clustered organization of the genes in the genome. We have determined the DNA sequence of the minimal fragment complementing the E. coli...
