Nucleotide sequence of the xanthine guanine phosphoribosyl transferase gene of E. coli

Nucleic Acids Res. 1983 Dec 20;11(24):8809-16. doi: 10.1093/nar/11.24.8809.

Abstract

The nucleotide sequence of the gpt coding for the enzyme xanthine guanine phosphoribosyl transferase has been determined. The gene codes for a protein of molecular weight 16,950. The construction of deletions in the gpt gene which can be used for the genetic analysis of mutations in the gpt gene, is described.
