Operon evidence: Genome analysis. Transcriptional fusions of lacZ to the yveK and yveM upstream regions indicate that yveM does not have its own promoter (D. Kearns, personal communication). However, Northern blotting experiments by Yoshida show a 1.2 kb yveKL transcript, which may be due to a readthrough terminator downstream of yveL. Note that yvfA and yvfB constitute one gene (epsK); this gene is listed as two ORFs due to a sequencing error (Kearns et al).
