Characterization of the Sinorhizobium meliloti genes encoding a functional dihydrodipicolinate synthase (dapA) and dihydrodipicolinate reductase (dapB).

Archives of microbiology - 1 Jan 2000

García-Rodríguez F M, Zekri S, Toro N

Abstract excerpt

In bacteria, the known pathways for diaminopimelate (DAP) and lysine biosynthesis share two key enzymes, dihydrodipicolinate synthase and dihydrodipicolinate reductase, encoded by the dapA and dapB genes, respectively. In rhizobia, these genes have not yet been genetically characterized. In this work, by sequence analysis, we identified two divergent open reading frames on the 140-MDa plasmid pRmeGR4b of...
