Nucleotide and deduced amino acid sequences of the Staphylococcus aureus phospho-beta-galactosidase gene.

Abstract We sequenced the Staphylococcus aureus phospho-beta-galactosidase gene. The protein product of this gene consisted of 470 amino acids, giving a molecular weight of 54,557. This gene appears to be transcribed as the terminal sequence on a polycistronic message.
