Abstract excerpt
A genetic locus from Staphylococcus xylosus involved in maltose-maltotriose utilization has been characterized. The chromosomal region was identified by screening a genomic library of S. xylosus in Escherichia coli for sucrose hydrolase activity. Nucleotide sequence analysis yielded two open reading frames (malR and malA) encoding proteins of 37.7 and 62.5 kDa, respectively. MalR was found to be homologous to the...
