Abstract excerpt
The Bradyrhizobium japonicum acnA gene encoding the tricarboxylic acid cycle enzyme aconitase was cloned and characterized. The gene was mapped immediately upstream of the cytochrome c biogenesis gene cycV and found to be transcribed in the opposite direction. The nucleotide sequence of acnA was determined; the derived amino acid sequence shared a significant similarity with bacterial aconitases and with the...
