Jm. Moulis, MOLECULAR-CLONING AND EXPRESSION OF THE GENE ENCODING CHROMATIUM-VINOSUM 2[4FE-4S] FERREDOXIN, Biochimica et biophysica acta, N. Gene structure and expression, 1308(1), 1996, pp. 12-14
The gene encoding Chromatium vinosum 2[4Fe-4S] ferredoxin has been clo
ned and expressed in Escherichia coti. It is flanked by a gene startin
g with the rare codon UUG and homologous to E. coli kdtB. Chromatium v
inosum ferredoxin may represent a new sub-class of iron-sulfur protein
s widely distributed among diverse, including non-photosynthetic, bact
eria.
