Abstract excerpt

Bacillus subtilis cheRB, which encodes the chemotactic methyltransferase, has been cloned and sequenced. CheRB is a polypeptide of 256 amino acids, with a predicted molecular mass of 28 kDa. A comparison of the predicted amino acid sequence of B. subtilis CheRB with that of Escherichia coli CheRE demonstrates that the two enzymes share 31% amino acid identity. The homology was functional in that the expression of...
