Campylobacter fetus uses multiple loci for DNA inversion within the 5' conserved regions of sap homologs.

Journal of bacteriology - 1 Nov 2001

Tu Z C, Ray K C, Thompson S A, Blaser M J

Abstract excerpt

Campylobacter fetus cells possess multiple promoterless sap homologs, each capable of expressing a surface layer protein (SLP) by utilizing a unique promoter present on a 6.2-kb invertible element. Each sap homolog includes a 626-bp 5' conserved region (FCR) with 74 bp upstream and 552 bp within the open reading frame. After DNA inversion, the splice is seamless because the FCRs are identical. In mutant strain...
