We report the identification, cloning, and mapping of a new cell division gene, ftsQ. This gene formed part of a cluster of three division genes (in the order ftsQ ftsA ftsZ) which itself formed part of a larger cluster of at least 10 genes, all of which were involved in some step in cell division, cell envelope synthesis, or both. The ftsQAZ group was transcribed from at least two independent promoters.
我们报告了一个新的细胞分裂基因ftsQ的鉴定、克隆和定位。该基因是由三个分裂基因组成的基因簇的一部分(顺序为ftsQ ftsA ftsZ),而这个基因簇本身又是一个至少包含10个基因的更大基因簇的一部分,所有这些基因都参与细胞分裂、细胞包膜合成或两者的某些步骤。ftsQAZ基因组由至少两个独立的启动子转录。
