Other interactions of aroC

  • This observed linkage of the gerC genes with the ndk, aroC and aroB genes has been similarly observed in B. subtilis [2].
  • Construction of a genetically defined Salmonella typhi Ty2 aroA, aroC mutant for the engineering of a candidate oral typhoid-tetanus vaccine [18].
  • Genetic mapping studies show that the mutation mepA is located close to aroC (50 min) and the other mutation, mepB, is very close to malE (91 min) on the chromosome [19].
  • DNA was integrated into the S. typhimurium chromosome at aroC by transferring the vectors into S. typhimurium polA mutants and allowing homologous recombination to occur between the cloned and chromosomal aroC genes [10].
