  • Title: Cloning and characterization of the lytB gene of Campylobacter jejuni.
    Author: Wösten MM, Ishiguro EE, van der Zeijst BA.
    Journal: FEMS Microbiol Lett; 1997 Dec 01; 157(1):117-21. PubMed ID: 9418246.
    Abstract:
    LytB of Escherichia coli is an essential gene involved in penicillin tolerance and the stringent response. The lytB gene of Campylobacter jejuni was cloned and characterized. It could complement a temperature-sensitive E. coli lytB mutant. The C. jejuni lytB gene encodes a protein of 277 amino acids that has 34, 36 and 40% amino acid identity with the LytB proteins of E. coli, Haemophilus influenzae, and Synechocystis sp. PCC6803, respectively. The lytB gene is situated between the aroA gene and a gene that encodes ribosomal protein S1.
