Figure 1. The S. enterica hyd operon encodes Hyd-5.

Figure 1

The structure of the hyd operon (STM1539–STM1531). S. enterica was genetically engineered to facilitate isolation of Hyd-5. The strong T5 promoter from the pQE series of expression vectors (Qiagen) was inserted immediately upstream of hydA (STM1539) on the S. enterica chromosome. In addition, a section of the hydA gene encoding a TM was deleted and replaced by the sequence for a His6 affinity tag. The roles of specific gene products are indicated.
