Genetic location of the gene (ush) specifying periplasmic uridine 5'-diphosphate glucose hydrolase (5'-nucleotidase) in Escherichia coli K-12

Abstract

Further genetic mapping to 2- and 3-factor crosses show that [in E. coli] the ush gene [coding for UDP glucose hydrolase (5''-nucleotidase)] is closely linked to 2 other genes, hemG and plsA, and that the probable gene order is proC-hemG-plsA-ush-gal.
