Characterization of the genes and gene products of the acetate-activating enzymes and a novel iron-sulfur flavoprotein from Methanosarcina thermophila strain TM-1

The genes encoding the acetate kinase and phosphotransacetylase enzymes from <i>Methanosarcina thermophila</i> were isolated from a genomic library on a fifteen kilobase fragment The genes are located adjacent to one another, with the phosphotransacetylase gene (<i>pta</i>) d...
