Direct demonstration of duplicate tuf genes in enteric bacteria.
Radioactive tuf mRNA was used to detect the tuf gene in bacterial DNA that had been digested by various restriction endonucleases. Both the K-12 and the B strains of Escherichia coli contain two tuf genes, but no more than two. Salmonella typhimurium also contains duplicate tuf genes.
