Cloning and nucleotide sequence of the Brucella abortus groE operon.
The cloning and sequencing of the Brucella abortus groES and groEL genes are reported. The genes are adjacent on the Brucella chromosome, and presumably comprise a functional operon. Putative promoter and terminator sequences are also identified. The groES gene exhibits 60%, and the groEl gene 69%, sequence identity with the corresponding Escherichia coli genes.
