Abstract excerpt
We have previously identified umu-complementing genes on two incL/M plasmids, R471a and R446b (C. Ho et al., J. Bacteriol., 175 (1993) 5411-5419). Molecular analysis of these genes revealed that they are more structurally and functionally related to mucAB from the incN plasmid pKM101 than to other members of the previously identified Umu-like family. As a consequence, we have termed these new homologs...
