Abstract excerpt
The dasABC genes encode an ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporter, which is one of the uptake systems for N,N'-diacetylchitobiose [(GlcNAc)(2)] in Streptomyces coelicolor A3(2), although the gene encoding the ABC subunit that provides ATP hydrolysis for DasABC has not been identified. In this stu...
