Abstract excerpt
The Rhodobacter capsulatus hemA gene, coding for the enzyme delta-aminolevulinic acid synthase (ALAS), was isolated from a genome bank by hybridization with a hemT probe from Rhodobacter sphaeroides. Subcloning of the initial 3.9 kb HindIII fragment allowed the isolation of a 2.5 kb HindIII-BglII...
