Isolation, sequencing and overproduction of the single-stranded DNA binding protein from Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO.

The gene (ssb) encoding the single-stranded DNA binding (SSB) protein from Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO was detected on a 2.1 kbp PstI-fragment of chromosomal DNA. The protein (PaeSSB) encoded by this gene consists of 165 aa and has a M(r) of 18549.
