Abstract excerpt
The Bacillus subtilis mutS and mutL genes, involved in the DNA mismatch repair system, have been cloned and characterized. From sequence analysis the two genes appear to be organized in a single operon, located immediately downstream of the cotE gene (approximately 150 degrees on the genetic map). The deduced MutS protein is 49% identical to HexA and MutL is 46% identical to HexB of Streptococcus pneumoniae....
