β¦ Synopsis
A DNA fragment containing the cya gene region ofErwinia chrysanthemi, B374 was cloned in vivo and transferred into cells of E. coli using a plasmid pULB113 derived from RP4 followed by subcloning in vitro into the vector pBR322. The cya gene encodes a 95 kDal protein that complemented E. coli cya mutants. Apparently, cya genes truncated at the Yend could still produce proteins complementing cya-defective strains, thus showing that adenylate cyclase truncated at its carboxy-terminal end could synthesise cAMP. A protein of unknown function (40 kDal) is encoded by a gene that is transcribed divergently from the control region of the adenylate cyclase gene.
