  • Title: Organization of genes for ribosomal proteins S7 and S12, elongation factors EF-Tu and EF-G in the cyanobacterium Spirulina platensis.
    Author: Tiboni O, Di Pasquale G.
    Journal: Biochim Biophys Acta; 1987 Feb 27; 908(2):113-22. PubMed ID: 3101737.
    Abstract:
    The gene encoding ribosomal proteins S12 and probably S7 as well as protein synthesis elongation factors Tu (EF-Tu) and G (EF-G) of Spirulina platensis have been identified and cloned. Gene expression was determined for ribosomal protein S12 by genetic complementation of the appropriate Escherichia coli mutant, whereas for the EF-Tu gene it was determined by production of the protein in E. coli minicells. On the basis of these experiments we suggest the following gene order in the S. platensis chromosome: S12, S7, EF-G, EF-Tu.
