Isolation and characterization of ribosomes and translation initiation factors from the gram-positive soil bacterium Streptomyces lividans.

abstract：:A gene which complements a paralyzed flagellar mutant of Rhodobacter sphaeroides was sequenced. The derived protein sequence has similarity to MotB. R. sphaeroides MotB lacks the C-terminal peptidoglycan-binding motif of other MotB proteins. This divergence of sequence may reflect the unusual, unidirectional, stop-sta...
