The following sequence is a mutant version of the above gene that is present in a mutant bacterial strain. The nature of the mutation is that the base-pair bolded above in the wild-type sequence has been deleted. The sequence given is from the point where transcription starts to the point where transcription ends. 5'-АСТТCGАТАTGTСТААААТАСGATCGATCTGTGGGGCСТАGCТАGСТААССАGAGACGCTACCG-3' 3'-TGAAGCTАТАСAGATTTтТАTGСТАGСТAGACACCCCGGATCGATCGАТTGGTCTCTGCGATGGC-5.
