Abstract
Phage Mu-1 mediated transposition has been used to map genes coding for ribosomal proteins and elongation factor G inside transcriptional units. The data indicate that 1) the strA and fusA genes belong to the same operon, 2) the spcA and strA genes are expressed independently, 3) the spcA gene is located in a different transcriptional unit to that of the eryA and eryB genes.Keywords
