摘要
A screen for Rhizobium meliloti genes which improve the growth of Alcaligenes eutrophus on sucrose identified the first alcohol dehydrogenase gene (adhA) isolated from the Rhizobiaceae. R, meliloti adhA is constitutively expressed in A. eutrophus and has alcohol dehydrogenase activity. R. meliloti adhA mutants retain some alcohol dehydrogenase activity.
