Abstract

A stretch of DNA approximately 27 kb in length, adjacent to the gene of , has been sequenced. The sequenced fragment carries a total of 23 ORFs. Of these, 15 could be assigned probable functions based on homologies to characterized genes either in or in other organisms. The sequencing of this region has also allowed us to assign to this area and , previously located on the other side of , between and the operon.
