Glutamine synthetase sequence evolution in the mycobacteria and their use as molecular markers for Actinobacteria speciation

BACKGROUND: Although the gene encoding for glutamine synthetase (glnA) is essential in several organisms, multiple glnA copies have been identified in bacterial genomes such as those of the phylum Actinobacteria, notably the mycobacterial species. Intriguingly, previous reports have shown that only...
