1 An in-frame deletion in the coding region of a gene of previously unidentified function (which is called orf2 and which we propose to rename pyrDII) in the Bacillus subtilis pyr operon led to pyrimidine bradytrophy, markedly reduced dihydroorotate dehydrogenase activity, and derepressed levels of other enzymes of pyrimidine biosynthesis. pyrimidine hypothetical protein Bacillus subtilis
