Sm. Boyle et al., PRIMARY STRUCTURE OF THE SPEC GENE ENCODING BIOSYNTHETIC ORNITHINE DECARBOXYLASE IN ESCHERICHIA-COLI, Gene, 151(1-2), 1994, pp. 157-160
A 2.91-kb fragment of the Escherichia coli chromosome containing the s
peC gene, encoding biosynthetic ornithine decarboxylase (ODC) was sequ
enced. The speC gene is encoded by a 2133-bp ORF; the deduced amino-ac
id sequence contains 711 residues whose predicted molecular mass is 79
505 Da.
