The hemA gene of Agrobacterium radiobacter ATCC4718 was identified by hybridization with a hemA probe from Rhizobium meliloti and cloned by complementation of a hemA mutant of Escherichia coli K12. E. coli hemA transformants carrying the hemA gene of Agrobacterium showed delta-aminolevulinic acid sy

โฆ Synopsis
The exocellular polysaccharides of Agrobacterium tumefaciens and Agrobacterium radiobacter have been investigated by the techniques of methylation and Smith degradation-periodate oxidation. The structure of the A. tumefaciens polysaccharide has been found to consist of hexasaccharide repeating-units having D-glUCOSe as the sole sugar component, and pyruvic acid, O-succinyl, and O-acetyl in the molar ratios of -5.8:1.03:0.91:0.87. Agrobacterium radiobacter polysaccharide was shown to contain D-glucose, D-galactose, pyruvic acid, 0-succinyl, and O-acetyl in the molar ratios of -3.
