- Abstract
Here, we report the cloning of a 3.5-kb HindIII fragment of chromosomal Bacillus subtilis DNA carrying at least two open reading frames exhibiting significant homology with entA and entE of Escherichia coli. This B. subtilis ent locus was mapped at about 41 degrees. Its inactivation did not cause any detectable phenotype.
