Mapping the uroporphyrinogen decarboxylase, coproporphyrinogen oxidase and ferrochelatase loci in Bacillus subtilis
Abstract
Three genes hemE, hemF, hemG taking part in the porphyrin biosynthesis of Baccillus subtilis were mapped by two- and three-factor transduction crosses. The gene hemE determines uroporphyrinogen decarboxylase (EC 4.1.1.37) the gene hemF coproporphyrinogen oxidase (EC 1.3.3.3) and the gene hemG ferrochelatase (EC 4.99.1.1) enzymes. The loci hemE, hemF, hemG, are not linked to hemA locus and located near the argC and metD loci.
