Abstract

The genes encoding the rrn operons, the 4.5S and 6S RNAs, elements of protein secretion, and outer membrane proteins F and I, and regulatory as well as structural genes for exotoxin A, alkaline phosphatase, and alginate and tryptophan biosynthesis, were assigned on the SpeI/DpnI macrorestriction map of the Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO chromosome. The zero point of the map was relocated to the chromosomal origin of replication.
