Abstract
Eight recombinant plasmids harboring chromosomal fragments of Lactococ cus lactis MG1363 were shown to phenotypically suppress a histidine pr otein kinase (HPK) deficiency in either of two different E. coli strai ns. Sequence analysis of the plasmid inserts revealed five different c omplete or partial open reading frames (ORFs) specifying proteins with high similarity to HPKs. One of the plasmids also harbored an additio nal ORF, unrelated to HPKs, with suppressing activity.
