Abstract excerpt
The Rhizobium leguminosarum bv trifolii exoB gene has been isolated by heterologous complementation of an exoB mutant of R. meliloti. We have cloned a chromosomal DNA fragment from the R. leguminosarum bv trifolii genome that contains an open reading frame of 981 bp showing 80% identity at the amino acid level to the UDP-glucose 4-epimerase of R. meliloti. This enzyme produces UDP-galactose, the donor of...
