Abstract excerpt
The genomic context of the recognized bet genes for choline-O-sulphate (COS) utilization in Pseudomonas putida KT2440 is such that betC (choline sulphatase) lies adjacent to an ATP-binding cassette transporter and a LysR type regulator, but well away from betBA, encoding enzymes for transformation of choline into glycine betaine. The consequences of such genetic layout of the functions for COS metabolism have...
