Abstract
The nucleotide sequence of the lacZ gene coding for beta‐galactosidase (EC 3.2.1.23) in Escherichia coli has been determined. Beta‐Galactosidase is predicted to consist of 1023 residues, resulting in a protein with a mol. wt. of 116 353 per subunit. The protein sequence originally determined by Fowler and Zabin was shown to be essentially correct and in an Appendix these authors comment on the discrepancies.This publication has 18 references indexed in Scilit:
