Sequences of the Salmonella typhimurium mglA and mglC genes.

The nucleotide sequences of the mglA and mglC genes of Salmonella typhimurium (St) LT2 have been determined. The deduced amino acid (aa) sequences of MglA and MglC are 506 and 302 aa long with predicted molecular masses of 56,484 and 31,551 Da, respectively. The aa sequences of St MglA and MglC are homologous to the corresponding Mgl proteins of Escherichia coli, Haemophilus influenzae, Treponema pallidum and Mycoplasma genitalium. The order of the St mgl operon is mglBAC.
