Temperature-sensitive pantothenate kinase mutants of Salmonella typhimurium LT2 were selected by using the excretion of pantothenate at the nonpermissive temperature as a screening method. Thermolability of the pathothenate kinase activity in extracts of the mutants was demonstrated. The mutations were mapped at min 89 of the Salmonella chromosome, near rpoB, by transduction. As pantothenate kinase catalyzes the first step in the biosynthesis of coenzyme A from pantothenate, the new genetic locus has been designated coaA.
利用鼠伤寒沙门氏菌LT2在非允许温度下泛酸盐的排泄作为筛选方法,筛选出了温度敏感型泛酸盐激酶突变体。已证明这些突变体提取物中泛酸盐激酶活性具有热不稳定性。通过转导将这些突变定位在沙门氏菌染色体89分钟处,靠近rpoB。由于泛酸盐激酶催化从泛酸盐生物合成辅酶A的第一步,这个新的基因位点被命名为coaA。
