Disease relevance of tufA
- The region of the plastid genome containing the genes for ribosomal proteins S12 and S7 and the elongation factor Tu (corresponding to three of the four str operon genes of Escherichia coli) was investigated in the unicellular marine alga Cryptomonas [1].
Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of tufA
- Sequence analysis shows the gene organization to be rps12-60 bp spacer-rps7-68 bp spacer-tufA [1].
