Mutational analysis of flagellum-independent surface spreading of Serratia marcescens 274 on a low-agar medium.

abstract：:A DNA region carrying lysS, the gene encoding the lysyl-tRNA synthetase, was cloned from the extreme thermophile prokaryote Thermus thermophilus VK-1 and sequenced. The analysis indicated an open reading frame encoding a protein of 492 amino acids. This putative protein has significant homologies to previously sequenc...
