Two independent genes, recN and spoIVB, along with their respective promoter and termination regions, were discovered and sequenced in the 3.4-kilobase region between the ahrC and spoOA genes at map position 216 in the Bacillus subtilis chromosome map. The gene encoding a 576-amino-acid protein, which maintains a high homology with the Escherichia coli recN gene product, was adjacent to ahrC. The sequence revealed a 64,472-dalton polypeptide which contained a conserved ATP-binding site and possi ...[more]
