Regulated Operon: safA-coxA

Genes
Genes Synonyms Direction Genome position Function COG ID Genus clusters
safA yrbA - 2843900..2845063 morphogenetic protein associated with SpoVID COG1388  
coxA yrbB - 2843156..2843674 spore cortex protein
 

Operon evidence: Northern blotting (2.0 kb transcript)
Reference: Takamatsu H, et al. (1999)
Comments: Readthrough terminator downstream of safA, leading to a 1.2 kb safA monocistronic transcript. An internal promoter in front of coxA leads to a 0.7 kb coxA monocistronic transcript.
