Abstract
The 25.9 kbp region upstream of nprB at 100 degrees-102 degrees on the Bacillus subtilis chromosome was sequenced. This revealed a known gen e, degA, which was previously mislocated on the genetic map. A total o f 29 putative ORFs were identified including a cluster of three ORFs w hose products show clear homology with sulphate adenylyl pathway enzym es and, in addition, 11 ORFs whose products have one or more membrane domains, as indicated by their hydropathy profiles.
