Abstract excerpt
The nucleotide sequence of the rpoB, encoding the beta-subunit of RNA polymerase of the obligate intracellular bacterium Coxiella burnetii, was determined using a polymerase chain reaction amplification and direct sequencing methodology. Comparison between C. burnetii and other eubacterial rpoB sequences indicated sequence similarity ranging from 53.6% to 67.6%. Coxiella burnetii rpoB consists of 4128 base pairs...
