Enzymatic Defects in Three Genetic Classes of Serine-Requiring Mutants of Bacillus pumilus

AUTOR(ES)
RESUMO

Serine-requiring mutants of Bacillus pumilus NRRL B-3275 have been divided into three groups based on the position of the mutant loci on the linkage map of this organism. Representatives of each group were found deficient in enzymatic activities that constitute the phosphorylated pathway for serine biosynthesis. The evidence suggests that the genes coding for the enzymes of the phosphorylated pathway of serine biosynthesis are not clustered in B. pumilus.
