Mapping of nrdA and nrdB in Escherichia coli K-12

The structural genes coding for the B1 and B2 subunits of the enzyme ribonucleoside diphosphate reductase, nrdA (formerly designated dnaF) and nrdB, respectively, have been mapped in Escherichia coli. They are located at approximately 48 min. The gene order in this region of the E. coli chromosome was found to be purF glpT nrdB nrdA nalA cdd dcd his.
