Localized transposon Tn5 mutagenesis of the photosynthetic gene cluster of Rhodobacter sphaeroides.

Molecular microbiology - 1 Jun 1990

Coomber S A, Chaudhri M, Connor A, Britton G, Hunter C N

Abstract excerpt

Four genes essential for bacteriochlorophyll biosynthesis were known to be encoded within a 45 kb region of the Rhodobacter sphaeroides genome, the boundaries of which are defined by puh and puf genes for reaction-centre and light-harvesting LH1 complexes. The cluster is represented by eight overlapping inserts cloned in the mobilizable vector pSUP202. We have used localized transposon Tn5 mutagenesis to...
