Abstract excerpt
The so-called common nodulation (nod) gene cluster of Bradyrhizobium japonicum is characterized by a unique composition of genes that are arranged in the following order: nodY, nodA, nodB, nodC, nodS, nodU, nodI, nodJ. As reported here, the identification of the two new genes nodS and nodU resulted from the DNA sequencing of a 4.5-kilobase nodC-downstream region covering nodS, nodU, nodI, and nodJ. The predicted...
