To evaluate the role of uridylyl-transferase, the Sinorhizobium meliloti glnD gene was isolated by heterologous complementation in Azotobacter vinelandii. The glnD gene is cotranscribed with a gene homologous to Salmonella mviN. glnD1::Omega or mviN1::Omega mutants could not be isolated by a powerful sucrose counterselection procedure unless a complementing cosmid was provided, indicating that glnD and mviN are members of an indispensable operon in S. meliloti.
