Genes argE, C, B, G, Hform a cluster linked to the gene cysE, the argDgene is linked to a locus which controls resistance to 1 mg./ml. streptomycin, argFis linked to a pyrimidine marker, while the argAgene could not be co-transduced with other markers. The clustering and order of argE, C, B, H, the linkage of argDto str-rand the non-linkage of argFand argAto other arginine genes are features shared by P. mirabilis, Escherichia coliand Salmonella typhimurium. Proteus mirabilisdiffers from the other organisms in that argGis included in the argE, C, B, G, Hcluster. This cluster is closely linked to cysEand not to methionine markers. ArgF, which is the gene for the sixth step in the pathway, is linked to a pyrimidine marker whilein E. colithis step is governed by two genes, one of which (argI) is linked to pyrB. ", }
