โฆ Synopsis
The nucleotide sequence of the ribosomal protein gene rpsO (S15) and its flanking region were determined. The amino acid sequence of S15 protein deduced from the nucleotide sequence is in good agreement with the published amino acid sequence with one exception. The nucleotide sequence shows two probable promoter sites about 100 nucleotides upstream from the initiation codon (AUG) of rpsO. Inspection of the sequence also revealed structural homology between the distal part of rpsO and the reported S15 binding region in 16S rRNA.

The genes for the ribosomal proteins $9 (rpsI) and L13 (rplM) of Escherichia coli have been cloned into a 2 phage vector termed L47.1. The two genes were identified by infecting UV-light irradiated cells with the resultant phages and analyzing the protein products by two-dimensional gel electrophore
P1 transduction studies of a mutation of Escherichia coli affecting the rpsB gene previously suggested the map order popC-rpsB-dapD. Biochemical analysis of transductants has now revealed that the rpsB gene lies in fact to the right hand (tsJ) side of the dapD marker.
The hemB gene of Escherichia coli K12, coding for porphobilinogen synthase (PBG-S; syn., 5-aminolevulinic acid dehydratase, ALA-D), was cloned following insertion of an EcoRI fragment of plasmid F'13 into the mobilizable vector pCR1. The hybrid plasmid carrying the hemB gene was able to complement a
We report here the complete nucleotide sequence of the E. coli triose phosphate isomerase gene. The gene encodes a polypeptide of 255 amino acids which is approximately 46% homologous to eukaryotic triose phosphate isomerases, and approximately 38% homologous to the enzyme from a thermophilic bacter
