Molecular analysis of the ggtBCD gene cluster of Synechocystis sp. strain PCC6803 encoding subunits of an ABC transporter for osmoprotective compounds.

Abstract excerpt

Genes encoding a substrate-binding protein (ggtB) and two integral membrane proteins (ggtC and ggtD) of the binding-protein-dependent ABC transporter for glucosylglycerol were identified in the genome of Synechocystis sp. strain PCC6803. These genes are clustered on the chromosome about 220 kb away from the previously identified ggtA gene, which encodes the ATP-binding protein of this transport system. The...
