A gene encoding a protein serine/threonine kinase is required for normal development of M. xanthus, a gram-negative bacterium.

Cell - 29 Nov 1991

Muñoz-Dorado J, Inouye S, Inouye M

Abstract excerpt

PCR reactions were carried out on the genomic DNA of M. xanthus, a soil bacterium capable of differentiation to form fruiting bodies, using oligonucleotides representing highly conserved regions of eukaryotic protein serine/threonine kinases. A gene (pkn1) thus cloned contains an ORF of 693 amino acid residues whose amino-terminal domain shows significant sequence similarity with the catalytic domain of...
