title: Mapping the uroporphyrinogen III cosynthase locus in Bacillus subtilis.
abstract: The gene hemD taking part in the formation of uroporphyrinogen III from porphobilinogen was mapped by two- and three-factor transduction crosses in Bacillus subtilis. This gene codes uroporphyrinogen III cosynthase. The gene hemD is linked to the hemA locus and is located between the hemA and pheA loci.
