Article

A membrane protein with similarity to N-methylphenylalanine pilins is essential for DNA binding by competent Bacillus subtilis.

Journal of bacteriology - 1 Mar 1990

Breitling R, Dubnau D

Abstract excerpt

In a cloned copy of comG open reading frame 3 (ORF3), an in-frame deletion was generated by site-directed in vitro mutagenesis, removing the coding sequence for 15 amino acids from the central portion of this pilin-related protein. The mutagenized ORF3 was incorporated into the Bacillus subtilis chromosome, replacing the wild-type ORF3. The presence of the deleted ORF3 in the chromosome, as confirmed by Southern...
