The fast growing strain, Azorhizobium caulinodans ORS571, isolated from stem nodules of the tropical legume Sesbania rostrata, can grow in the free-living state at the expense of molecular nitrogen. Five point mutants impaired in nitrogen fixation in the free-living state have been complemented by a
A 135 kb long segment of the symbiotic region of the Rhizobium meliloti megaplasmid was mapped with the help of a Rhizobium meliloti gene library, made in the cosmid vehicle pJB8. A set of overlapping cosmid clones was used to identify the inserts in R-primes carrying megaplasmid sections, and to ma
## Abstract An R‐prime plasmid (pJB3JI‐18) carrying a 10 kb region of __Azorhizobium caulinodans__ ORS571 DNA which codes for uptake hydrogenase activity was isolated from a Km^8^ derivative of R68.45. R‐prime plasmids were obtained by transferring R68.45 to ORS571, retransferring it to __E. coli__
The monoclonal antibody TRA-1-85 recognizes a cell surface antigen which is expressed by all human cell types tested, including red blood cells (RBCs), but not by mouse cells. All the human RBCs tested were TRA-1-85 positive except those with the rare phenotype Ok(a-). Oka is a blood group antigen o
The nucleotide sequence of a 4.1 kb DNA fragment containing the fixABC region of Azorhizobium caulinodans was established. The three gene products were very similar to the corresponding polypeptides of Rhizobium meliloti. The C-terminal domains of both fixB products displayed a high degree of simila
