A small recA analog in streptococcus pneumoniae that is not induced during competence for genetic transformation
폐염균에서 작은 RecA 유사체의 검출 및 형질전환 때의 비유도성 확인
Abstract
Western blot analysis of lysates of Streptococcus pneumoniae revealed a single polypeptide species that cross-reacted with E. coli RecA antiserum. The apparent molecular weight of this putative RecA protein analog (RecAsp) was 24, 000 smaller than any other known RecA analogue. The RecAsp protein was present at the same level in competent and non-competent cells.
