Abstract

The 17-kilodalton protein, a DNA-binding protein encoded by the skp gene of Escherichia coli, was found to be identical to histonelike protein I, the product of the firA gene. This conclusion was reached after chromosomal localization, using the recently constructed high- and low-resolution E. coli restriction maps, and by direct comparison of the N-terminal amino acid sequence of histonelike protein I and the 17-kilodalton protein.
