Abstract excerpt
The dnaN gene in eubacteria is an essential gene that encodes the beta subunit of replicative DNA polymerase. Nearly all eubacterial genomes sequenced to date predict a single copy of the dnaN gene in a well-conserved neighboring gene context. However, 19 genomes out of 348 scanned, including Bacillus anthracis, Bacillus cereus, Bacillus thuringiensis, and Bacillus weihenstephanensis, predict more than one dnaN...
