Sequence of the Bacillus subtilis homolog of the Escherichia coli cell-division gene murG

Gene. 1992 Sep 1;118(1):147-8. doi: 10.1016/0378-1119(92)90264-p.

Abstract

The Bacillus subtilis homology of the Escherichia coli murG gene [encoding UDP-N-acetylglucosamine:N-acetylmuramyl-(pentapeptide) pyrophosphoryl-undecaprenol N-acetylglucosamine transferase] was cloned in E. coli K-12 and sequenced. The murG homolog encodes a protein of M(r) 39,936 [363 amino acid (aa) residues] of which 108 aa residues (29.8%) are identical with the E. coli murG product.
