Abstract: | The genome of Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 contains an operon with homology to the sulfate permease of other prokaryotes. We used antibodies raised against cytoplasmic membrane protein to find three genes with strong homology to sbpA, orf81 and cysT genes of the cyanobacterium Synechococcus sp. PCC 7942, Escherichia coli, Salmonella typhymurium and Marchantia polymorpha. It is likely that the permease genes are expressed and the proteins are inserted into the cytoplasmic membrane. |
