analysis of a deletion mutant lacking the 170-residue C-terminal domain indicated that this region has an important role in the thermostability and activity of the protein. Specific initial velocity (glucose-1-phosphate thymidylyltransferase activity) is 23 times lower than that of the native enzyme when measured at 37°C
