Abstract

A mutant of Bacillus subtilis with a defective cdd gene encoding deoxycytidine-cytidine deaminase (EC 3.5.4.5) has been characterized genetically. The genetic lesion, cdd, causing the altered deoxycytidine-cytidine deaminase was mapped at 225 min on the linkage map of B. subtilis by AR9 transduction, Transductional analysis of the cdd region established the gene order in clockwise as trp-lys-cdd-aroD. The cdd gene was linked 72% with the aroD and 20% with the lys.
