Conversion of cyclododecanone by
E. coli cosmid clones and subclones containing the indicated
gene fragments. Region with arrows, the cdd genes identified
on the 10,480-bp cluster. Solid horizontal line, flanking sequences of
the cdd gene cluster represented on the cosmids or
subclones. Vertical line, the start (0) or the end (bp 10480) of the
cluster. Other numbers indicate the ends of the fragments relative to
the start of the cluster on the cosmids or subclones (positive numbers
for downstream, negative numbers for upstream). For product detection,
−, absence of metabolite; +, presence of metabolite; +++, 6- to
10-fold more metabolite.
