Abstract
Previous work of others reported an untranslated stretch of 12 nucleot ides in the 5' coding sequence of carA from Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Ho wever, N-terminal protein sequencing of carA-lacZ translational fusion s shows that these 12 nucleotides are normally translated in a continu ous triplet manner, both in P. aeruginosa and in Escherichia coli.
