The rkp-3 Gene Region of Sinorhizobium meliloti Rm41 Contains Strain-Specific Genes that Determine K Antigen Structure

The rkp-3 region is indispensable for capsular polysaccharide (K antigen) synthesis in Sinorhizobium meliloti Rm41. Strain Rm41 produces a K antigen of strain-specific structure, designated as the KR5 antigen. The data in this report show that the rkp-3 gene region comprises 10 open reading frames i...
