title: Identification of dnaK multigene family in Synechococcus sp. PCC7942.
abstract: Three dnaK gene homologs have been cloned and sequenced from cyanobacterium Synechococcus sp. PCC7942 using a set of primers designed from two conserved regions of known dnaK genes. This is the first example of triple genes for dnaK from prokaryotic cells. These three genes were derived from different loci of the chromosome.
