title: Identification of the ubiD gene on the Escherichia coli chromosome.
abstract: The open reading frame at 86.7 min on the Escherichia coli chromosome, "yigC," complemented a ubiD mutant strain, AN66, indicating that yigC is the ubiD gene. The gene product, a 497-amino-acid-residue protein, showed extensive homology to the UPF 00096 family of proteins in the Swiss-Prot database.
