Abstract excerpt
Genes encoding polypeptides of an ATP binding cassette (ABC)-type ferric iron transporter that plays a major role in iron acquisition in Synechocystis sp. strain PCC 6803 were identified. These genes are slr1295, slr0513, slr0327, and recently reported sll1878 (Katoh et al., J. Bacteriol. 182:6523-6524, 2000) and were designated futA1, futA2, futB, and futC, respectively, for their involvement in ferric iron...
