Abstract
The linkage arrangements of genes governing glucolysis in Pseudomonas putida have been determined by transductional analysis. Five genes (gdh, kgtA, kgtB, edd and eda), comprising at least three operons, are cotransducible with each other, but not with ggu (glucose and gluconate uptake) nor with genes of a known supra-operonic cluster of genes specifying enzymes of other dissimilatory pathways, nor with a biochemically uncharacterized his marker. It thus appears that P. putida may have more than one chromosomal region in which genes with dissimilatory function are clustered in a supra-operonic fashion.Keywords
