Evidence for redundancy in cysteine biosynthesis in Rhizobium leguminosarum RL3841: analysis of a cysE gene encoding serine acetyltransferase.

Abstract excerpt

A cysE gene encoding a serine acetyltransferase (SAT) potentially involved in the biosynthesis of cysteine was identified approximately 4 kb upstream of the previously described aapJQMP gene cluster that encodes an amino acid permease in Rhizobium leguminosarum strain 3841. The gene exhibits >40% identity to the family of SATs containing N-terminal extensions that have been described for other bacteria and...
