Abstract

The structural genes for the arsenical pump of the conjugative R-factor R773 contained on a HindIII fragment of 4.3 kilobase pairs were cloned into bacteriophage M13. A series of ordered deletions was created using Bal31 digestion, and the nucleotide sequence of the operon determined. Three open reading frames for genes arsA, arsB, and arsC were found. The arsA gene encodes a hydrophilic protein of 63,169 Da with two potential adenylate-binding sites. The arsB gene encodes a potentially membrane protein of 45,577 Da. The arsC gene encodes a 15,811-Da hydrophilic protein. The arsA and arsC gene products correspond to cytosolic proteins previously identified from minicell experiments. Isolated ArsA protein was shown to bind to dye-agarose columns which act as affinity resins for nucleotide-binding proteins. A model is proposed in which these gene products form an anion translocating ATPase for extrusion of arsenite and arsenate from resistant cells.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
