Urease gene clusters in corynebacteria sequenced in this study. The following urease genes were found in the six corynebacterial strains with urease activity: 1, ureC (urease alpha subunit); 2, ureA (urease gamma subunit); 3, ureG (urease accessory protein); 4, ureB (urease beta subunit); 6, ureE (urease accessory protein); 7 and 8, ureF (urease accessory protein); 10 and 11, ureD (urease accessory protein). Other urease gene cluster-associated genes: 5, gene encoding urea transporter; 9, gene encoding conserved hypothetical protein. The genes encoding the alpha and beta urease subunits (ureC and ureB) are fused in C. kroppenstedtii P1-C1 and C. pseudokroppenstedtii P15-C1. The gene ureE is absent in C. kroppenstedtii P1-C1, C. pseudokroppenstedtii P15-C1 and C. bovis P12-C2.
