Three Genes Encoding for Putative Methyl- and Acetyltransferases Map Adjacent to the wzm and wzt Genes and Are Essential for O-Antigen Biosynthesis in Rhizobium etli CE3

The elucidation of the structure of the O-antigen of Rhizo-bium etli CE3 predicts that the R. etli CE3 genome must contain genes encoding acetyl- and methyltransferases to confer the corresponding modifications to the O-antigen. We identified three open reading frames (ORFs) upstream of wzm, encodin...
