Sequence analysis of a 50 kb region between spoOH and rrnH on the Bacillus subtilis chromosome Yasumoto, Kenji and Liu, Hongtu and Jeong, Sang Min and Ohashi, Yukio and Kakinuma, Shinji and Tanaka, Kan and Kawamura, Fujio and Yoshikawa, Hirofumi and Takahashi, Hideo,, 142, 3039-3046 (1996), doi = https://doi.org/10.1099/13500872-142-11-3039, publicationName = Microbiology Society, issn = 1350-0872, abstract= The 49630 bp spoOH-rrnH region of the Bacillus subtilis genome has been fully sequenced. The sequence contains one partial and 62 complete ORFs, one partial and three complete rRNA genes and a cluster of six tRNA genes. The direction of the transcription and translation of 61 ORFs is the same as that of the movement of the replication fork. A homology search of 40 ORFs in newly determined sequence revealed that 27 of them had significant similarity to known proteins such as elongation factor G, elongation factor Tu, pseudouridine synthase I and ribosomal proteins. Two adjacent genes, ybaD and ybaE, appeared to encode proteins belonging to the ATP-binding cassette (ABC) family., language=, type=
