Abstract excerpt
UNLABELLED: Previously, several essential genes from psychrophilic bacteria have been substituted for their homologues in mesophilic bacterial pathogens to make the latter temperature sensitive. It has been noted that an essential ligA gene from an extreme psychrophile, Colwellia sp. C1, yielded a gene product that is inactivated at 27°C, the lowest that has been observed for any psychrophilic enzyme, and...
