Properties of NAD+- and NADP+-dependent malic enzymes of Rhizobium (Sinorhizobium) meliloti and differential expression of their genes in nitrogen-fixing bacteroids
Abstract
The wild-type NAD(+)-dependent malic enzyme (dme) gene of Rhizobium (now Sinorhizobium) meliloti was cloned and localized to a 3.1 kb region isolated on the cosmid pTH69. This cosmid complemented the symbiotic nitrogen fixation (Fix-) phenotype of R. meliloti dme mutants. The dme gene was mapped by conjugation to between the cys-11 and leu-53 markers on the R. meliloti chromosome. beta-Galactosidase activities measured in bacterial strains …
