cobB function is required for catabolism of propionate in Salmonella typhimurium LT2: evidence for existence of a substitute function for CobB within the 1,2-propanediol utilization (pdu) operon.

Abstract excerpt

The cobB function of Salmonella typhimurium LT2 was defined in vivo as an alternative activity for the nicotinic acid mononucleotide:5,6-dimethylbenzimidazole phosphoribosyltransferase enzyme (CobT), which is involved in the assembly of the nucleotide loop of cobalamin in this bacterium (J. R. Trzebiatowski, G. A. O'Toole, and J. C. Escalante-Semerena, J. Bacteriol. 176:3568-3575, 1994). In this paper we document...
