Abstract excerpt
The DNA sequence of a 2,391-base-pair HindIII restriction fragment of Acinetobacter calcoaceticus DNA containing the pcaCHG genes is reported. The DNA sequence reveals that A. calcoaceticus pca genes, encoding enzymes required for protocatechuate metabolism, are arranged in a single transcription...
