Abstract excerpt
The mop gene, encoding the molybdate-binding protein from Eubacterium acidaminophilum, was cloned using Clostridium pasteurianum mopI as a probe for heterologous hybridization. mop encodes a 69-amino-acid protein ( M(r) 7,328) with high sequence similarities to members of the molbindin protein family, which have been implicated in molybdenum storage and homeostasis. Northern blot analysis showed three mRNA...
