Abstract excerpt
In Salmonella typhimurium, precursors to the pyrimidine moiety of thiamine are synthesized de novo by the purine biosynthetic pathway or the alternative pyrimidine biosynthetic (APB) pathway. The apbA gene was the first locus defined as required for function of the APB pathway (D. M. Downs and L....
