Abstract excerpt
By functional complementation of Escherichia coli mutants defective in potassium (K(+)) uptake, two genes that are required for K(+) uptake in halo-alkaliphilic Alkalimonas amylolytica strain N10 were cloned. These two genes, Aa-trkA (1337 bp) and Aa-trkH (1452 bp), were adjacent on the A. amylolytica N10 chromosome and transcribed in opposite directions. Complementation experiments revealed that Aa-TrkA and...
